What is to be handover to the Next Generation by philoedu(m): 11:35am On Nov 08, 2017
In the first place, we understand by “concept’’-as it refers to a procedure or an abstract idea. And the word “Idea” refers to plan formed by mental effort. With this in mind, we can go ahead to see what the concept of culture is all about. In fact, Culture is a term we come to use very frequently just like the term “Education” with little precise meaning. The reason being that it is a word that seems to convey to most listeners, a general impression instead of precise idea. This general impression is of “doing the done thing”. But there seems to be a connection of the term “Culture” with activities like listening and reading, eating and drinking as well as behave in an acceptable way. With this, there seems to be justification that link culture and education as both involve “doing the done thing”.
And we are told that Education is concern with what is worthwhile activities .Therefore it is clear that any person who perform what looks like a worthwhile activities as mentioned above, is refer to as a cultured person. However, they all tends to develop through history which has become traditionally accepted. And a close examination of the past tends to show that generation after generation have also attempted to match up with what look like a vague idea of education and culture, or an educated man and a culture man. What seems common is the fear of not “doing the done thing” that may result to public disapproval. And if you like, such disapproval by a section of the public may come to view them as doing things that “are not-done”.
This line of thinking, no doubt, tends to lead us to view the connection between education and culture as well as the idea of gentle man and the public or society. Often it appear, that society or the public, at least in part, come to determine what is culture and the same is true, of the existence of a connection between what is worthwhile-Education and Culture. According to Peter- education implies the transmission of what is worthwhile, and the word “implies” seems to suggest that when you think of education, you think of people handing on values to other people. But here there is a connection between education and culture of which both appear to involve values and transmission. Therefore the need to be careful of what value this current generation is handing over to the next generation in the society of today. And could it be, that this current generation only seems to care of what looks like a well developed and technologically advance society but with little concerned about our family and spiritual values.?
