Education is often viewed as school in a traditional, formal sense. Many

people believe that true learning can only take place in a formal classroom setting.
Others feel education occurs in many different forms and environments. There
may not be a definitive answer to the question of, 'What is education?' However,
we can start thinking about the purpose of education. Is it to educate youth to be
responsible citizens? Is it to develop individuals, as well as society, in order to
ensure a society's economic success? Or is it to simply focus on developing
individual talents and intelligence? Perhaps it is the balance of all three that
defines education? While our answers may differ, we can perhaps agree that
education is a basic human right. When that right is granted growth and
development, the society as a whole is more likely to improve in areas such as
health, nutrition, general income and living standards and population fertility
rates.
As global citizens it is our responsibility to critically think about the issues
and
attempt to come up with solutions to the problems plaguing education. In 1990
UNESCO launched EFA, the movement to provide quality education for all
children, youth, and adults by the year 2015. The unfortunate reality is that for
many countries, larger issues some before improving the quality of education.
How can we achieve the goals of EFA when numerous countries around the world
are faced with challenges that seem far too impossible to overcome? The answer
lies in attempting to bridge some of the gaps that prevent developing nations to
compete with developed nations. One example is that of providing greater access
to technology and narrowing the ever widening digital divide. In many ways the
most basic access to technology can serve as a valuable educational tool.
Individuals who are not afforded this access are at a disadvantage when trying to
grasp opportunities to make life better for themselves, their families, and their
community.
