learning process should be first however i would like to define the two parts of the learning process education and training training can be defined as any part of the learning proc ess which has as its aim th provision of skills necessary for one particular type of job clas sificatlon it mlghtlio be de fined as learning with the ob taining of a job as a goal education then is any part of the learning process educat ion and training are defined in terms of motivation and goal these definitions enable us to divide secondary school educ ation into two categories training and trainingeducation it has become trite to com plain that we live in a mater ialtstic society but nevertheless it is true it is most unfortun ate that the school system is now in a position which rein forces this trend in society as long as our school system is job oriented then tbe circle of schools producing people for the business world and the business world influencing schools will continue the basic purpose of schools should be education the sys tern is not now and never was intended to produce prepack aged individuals whose dimen sions of knowledge are exactly those of some slot in society the first though admittedly not tbe only purpose of learning la to bring the individual to such a state that he is able to think and gain knowledge in bis own way and for himself if this is done society- will not need to try toee so spec iflcally to an individual mater ial needs he will not need to be trained specifically for a job ia order that he will be able to look after himself physically a person whose learning has taught him to think before it has trained him to do will of necessity do better the re duction of this argument to its bastes it this a computer opera tor is a
