Nieto reminds us
that culture is not given, but human creation, depending on the specific
context of geography, temporal and social policy, and therefore weak in power
and control issues. He does not emphasize some of the characteristics that
follow the culture of this concept as dynamic, multiple aspects, embedded in
the context, influenced by social, economic and political factors, constructed
in society, learned and dialectically - often draws from his personal
experience to to illustrate his points.
Education (in
the sense of the word) is actually first threatened by learning, and most
societies have been demanding school effectiveness in schools since they were
invented. In the case of Africa, not only has sovereignty been lost in
colonialism.
Culture and
education are inseparable because they are two sides of the same coin. These
two concepts can actually be said to be unrecognized, because the basic meaning
of Education is Acculturation. Every human society - regardless of the level of
technical evolution - pays a lot of attention to the transfer of its culture to
young people. Prior to the emergence of schools as specialized agencies,
education took place in society, where young people and young people were
raised by the simple lifestyle of their culture. Education and culture are
intimately and integrally connected. The cultural patterns of a society
condition its educational pattern. For example, if a society has a spiritual
cultural pattern, its educational approaches will emphasize the success of
moral and eternal values of life. On the other hand, if the cultural pattern
of a society is materialistic, then its educational form is naturally formed
for acquiring material values that promote the enjoyment of senses and
material comfort. A society without any culture has no specific educational
organization. So the culture of a country has a profound influence on its
educational pattern.
Every society
has a culture or way of working that is unique. To live harmoniously in a
culture, its members must be aware of the different ways of behavior that are
acceptable to that culture. It is through the educational process that children
and new members have expressed these truths. To survive, the individual must
also recognize the nature of these things in his environment, where he can
cope. In general terms it can therefore be said that the aim of education in
general is to inform the individual about the nature of his or her cultural and
acceptable ways of dealing with that culture. The implication, of course, is
that education must teach students of a particular country how to view the
world and how to do things according to the way things are done in their own
country.
