Education in its broadest, general sense is the means through which the aims and habits of a group of people lives on from one generation to the next.[1] Generally, it occurs through any experience that has a formative effect on the way one thinks, feels, or acts. In its narrow, technical sense, education is the formal process by which society deliberately transmits its accumulated knowledge, skills, customs and values from one generation to another, e.g., instruction in schools.
A right to education has been created and recognized by some jurisdictions: 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 the global level, the United Nations' International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights of 1966 guarantees this right under its Article 13.

Topics for Education Essays

There are a lot of topics that you can use for education essays. There is no specific rule which would be the most appropriate but there are some parameters that you can use to make sure that your topic would be relevant. The first thing to determine is what do you exactly want to achieve in writing the education essay: Do you want to inform your readers regarding a certain education concept or theory? Do you want to lend more credence or otherwise disprove a learning theory? Do you want to argue for or against a controversial idea in education reform?






Once you know your purpose of writing, you can start researching on related topics that education research scholars, and even fellow university students, have already written. You can use these as guides in coming up with your own topic. Then select a general topic. After which, you need to research again on topics written under the same general topic. Henceforth, draft your topic in accordance with the required formatting standards whilst presenting a logical and compelling discussion. Make sure, though, that there are enough research materials that you can use to validate your contentions. Bear in mind that education essay writing is very much the same as all the other kinds of essay writing: you would still need facts to firmly support your points and perspectives.
There are a lot of websites and online data bases that offer informative resources in education essay topic selection help. You can also get a list of specialised topics to further narrow down your topic. Some even offer help in writing essays. Just make sure that at the end of the day, your topic is solid and worth reading.
