Why is education important?

In this short essay, I will tell about three reasons why education is important.

First, current society is quite complex and requires a lot of skill to live and work. In order to get such complicated skills, we have to learn some basic skills in primary education like how to write, how to calculate how to read, etc.

Secondly, after we got this basic knowledge, we can develop and apply this knowledge and skills to dig out our field of interest.

Thirdly, the final purpose of education is to think about things rationally in a critical mind and to develop our own skills and creativity. This is the final stage of education. That is the reason why higher education often focus on discussion and research.

In this essay, I told about three reasons why education is important for the reasons of getting basic skills, digging out the skills and to gaining a creative rational and critical mind. I sometimes feel that humans are educated animals and because of education, we can accumulate our knowledge and skills from generation to generation. Education can develop not only our individual life but also our species life in the future.
