Education in its broadest sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind, character, or physical ability of an individual (e.g., the consciousness of an infant is educated by its environment through its interaction with its environment); and in its technical sense education is the process by which society deliberately transmits its accumulated knowledge, values, and skills from one generation to another through institutions. Teachers in such institutions direct the education of students and might draw on many subjects, including reading, writing, mathematics, science and history. This technical process is sometimes called schooling when referring to the compulsory education of youth. For example, Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis, Teachers in specialized professions such as astrophysics, law, or zoology may teach only a certain subject, usually as professors at institutions of higher learning. There is also instruction in fields for those who want specific vocational skills, such as those required to be a pilot. In addition there is an array of education possible at the informal level, e.g., at museums and libraries, with the Internet, and in life experience. The right to education has been described as a basic human right: since 1952, Article 2 of the first Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights obliges all signatory parties to guarantee the right to education. At world level, the United Nations' International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights of 1966 guarantees this right under its Article 13. From Wikipedia under the

And What Universitys in California is there to get that education? Asked by Marcos - Sat Feb 10 23:02:15 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. I have friends who work as interpreters in Europe. They did their undergraduate degrees in the foreign language they want to work with, while taking a few Linguistics courses as their electives. Then, they did Master's degrees in Translating. This isn't my area of interest, and I don't know of any North American universities that offer graduate programs in Translating.

Every time there is an OECD survey, Spain, the 7th or 8th largest economy in the world always comes really low down in the ranking. In attainment in reading, science and mathematics. We are constantly down in the 20's ranks near Greece, Portugal and Italy. Every new government seems to want to change the education policy of the previous one and in addition regional politicians openly defy national government policy if they happen to be of another political party. We have the money to have a much better education system, so why don't we? Asked by sunshineon69 - Thu Nov 27 09:12:32 2008 - - 10 Answers - 0 Comments A. Honestly? Voting another Party on the next elections. But even so I think it's not possible to improve it rapidly. In fact, Spanish politics are rubbish! (whatever Party!). I've graduated on the University recently but I don't think I'm trained at all. I think that the knowledge that the University teaches is not enough. The case of the elementary school and High School is even worse! It's sad! I'm not particularly proud of that, what a pity!

Q. I want to learn to trade stocks, do I need a certificate? What is the best way to learn to trade stocks? Do I need a formal education or can I do this on my own? I am deciding on a college? If you think college is best, which degree program? Asked by djostl - Sun Aug 5 15:43:01 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Simple- open up an account. You pay for each trade that you make too. Well, you have to pay in general. Scottrade or Ameritrade are servers that offer stock trading. You need money though to buy stocks, sell them, and short them (for me the MOST important and MOST difficult). Don't need a certificate. Go do it on your own, business school teaches you this stuff but I saw from my dad that he learned it on his own completely. Go to investopedia.com to learn about the vocabulary. For college, they don't teach you ONLY this stuff. You have to take a lot of other courses so you can't exactly focus on just stocks. Mutual funds and bonds are involved too. All of this is called "investing" lol. Stock brokers might let you intern with… [cont.] Answered by cristal - Sun Aug 5 16:31:47 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Education"
