“Education is simply the soul of a society as it passes from one generation to another”- G.K Chesterton. Formal education increases individuals' well-being primarily through their acquisition of skills, both cognitive (e.g. literacy and numeracy) and non-cognitive (e.g. social and organizational skills). The purpose of formal education in society is to impart knowledge. Knowledge is something one can achieve by many other means, for example, technology and libraries. But, formal education provides you with degrees and certificates that will help verify your achievements. Both formal and informal education settings offer different strengths and value to a career path. A balance of the two forms of education can help students develop skills such as common sense, problem solving, empathy, etc. The presentation gives better understanding on the topic.
