Conclusion
• All these three types of education - formal,
informal and non-formal, have their due place
in the modern system of education. Each has
its own merits and demerits. There is need to
integrate the three forms and make education
holistic and comprehensive.
Education as Science
• Education – a science as well as an art. Education
is both a science as well as an art. It is a science
because of the following reasons:
a. It undertakes systematic and methodical study of
certain facts.
b. It employs the scientific methods of observation
and experimentation.
c. It discovers, establishes and formulates a number
of generalizations about its methodology, learning,
memory, attention, interest, motivation,
curriculum, construction, methods of teaching and
evaluation.
Education is an art
• Education is an art because of the following
reasons.
a. Educationist is just like an artist who moulds the
raw material of the child into a better, pure and
noble person.
b. Educationist is inspired by practical end. It has
practical end to attain, i.e., to help the child in
acquisition of knowledge, integrated growth, social
and vocational efficiency, and continuous
reconstruction and reorganization of experiences
Education as a Process &
Education is a social process
Education as a Process
Education is a social process
Education and Socialization
• Education is a social process, which prepares
individuals to lead a meaningful and dignified
life.
• Together with other social forces it plays an
important role in shaping the structure of
society.
• Education society imparts its knowledge, skill,
values and behavioural patterns to its
younger generations.
Cont.,
• Thereby ensuring self preservation and
continuity. In this sense education is a process
of socialization.
• At the same time changes in society mould
the education system itself and it acquires
complexity.
• Education in this sense is a process, which
prepares the members of the society to adapt
to the constantly changing conditions of a
society.
Cont.,
• Two important statements emerge from the
above discussion: Education and Socialization
a) Education is a social process, and
b) Education is a process of socialization
Education is a social process
• i) Education occurs in a society and therefore
influenced by the society in which it takes
place.
• ii) The social atmosphere itself educates.
• iii) School is one of the important social
institutions that educate. Its role is influenced
by that of others.
• iv) Education has a social role and is involved
in moulding the future society.
Education is a process of socialization
To say that education is a process of socialization
implies:
i) Education takes place through social
interaction.
ii) It is much more than mere instruction.
iii) People receive a certain degree of education
even if they never enter a school.
iv) Formal education is socialization with a
deliberate purpose and in a desired direction.
Cont.,
• Here it is worth mentioning that all learning is
not socialization because some of what one
learns may not be relevant for participation in
given social role.
• For example learning to take drugs or smoke
cigarette may be against the norms of
participation in the given social roles among
certain social groups.
Education for Human Resource
Development
Introduction
• Human resources development is the strategy or effort to
develop the mind and skills of people. It is a means of
acquiring skills.
• Human resources development is usually directed towards
the improvement of staff personnel job-related skills in
organizations.
• Human resources development leads to efficient
production of goods and services.
• Education is enlightens people especially in this modern
society. In this context, education is fundamental to
development. The nation with large number of human
resource can be known as the richest nation.
Cont.,
• India being a young country can become one of
the richest countries through the systematic
efforts of human resource development activities.
India is recognized as the Youngest Country in
the world due to largest young population.
• It is the opinion of young India and the young
generation is convinced that a better India can
be built only by building ‘better people’. And
the young people can be empowered through
education in general, through quality higher
education in particular.
Developing Human Resources
According to Leonard Nadler, author of Developing
Human Resources,
• Training is a learning activity provided by employers
to employees, to help them perform, their current
jobs more efficiently;
• Education focuses on learning designed to prepare
an individual for a job different than the one
currently held; and
• Development focuses on providing knowledge or
skills within a specified area, but is not necessarily
job related.
A man is considered as Human
Resource
i) A man is considered a resource only when he can
participate in any production process in society.
ii) Only a healthy man is considered as a resource. Health or
physical capacity is an essential component of human
resource.
iii) There is some individual and special mental capability in a
man beside his common mental capability. This individual
mental capability helps him in drawing a special activity or
work efficiency. A man with this individual and special
capability is called a human resource.
iv) Education is the most important element of human
resource and the literacy must be up to the specified
social standard (Sheikh, 2003, P.74-75).
Role of Education in Human Resource
Development
• India is a nation of young people with 0.672 billion
people in the age group of 15-64 years. This is treated
as the working age population.
• In the year 2001 11% of population of the country was
in the age group of 18-24 years which is expected to go
up to more than 12% of the 11th Five Year Plan. In
2011, Nearly 41% of India's population is below the
age of 20
• This large population should be considered as an
invaluable human resource and should be provided the
necessary skills so as to empower them to lead a
purposeful life and contribute to our national
economy.
Cont.,
• With the enactment of the Right of Children
to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009
and the fact that Article 21-A of the
Constitution of India became operative it is
expected that issues of drop out, out of school
children, quality of education and availability
of trained teachers would be addressed
appropriately in the short to medium term.
• The Act makes it incumbent on governments
to provide free and compulsory education to
all children of 6-14 years of age.
Cont.,
• India is committed to the goal of universal
elementary education for all children. This goal is
part of the Education for All goals adopted at the
World Education Forum Dakar in April 2000.
• The EFA goals include inter alia achieving universal
elementary education by the year 2015 ensuring
equitable access to appropriate learning and life
skill programmes for young people and adults
achieving 50% improvement in adult literacy by
2015,achieving gender equality in education by
2015 and improving all aspects of quality of
education.
Cont.,
• Universalization of elementary education has
been achieved to some extent in terms of
access to schooling and improvement in gross
enrolment ratio, especially girls and those
belonging to the marginalized groups.
• Gender parity especially at the elementary
stage has improved. This has been the result
of large number of programmes initiated
specifically for education of girls and focus on
disabled children, minorities and marginal
groups and in Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan.
Cont.,
• SSA works to improve the quality of elementary
education and subject to certain norms provides for
opening of new primary schools and up gradation
of primary schools to upper primary schools.
• Adult education of women has received impetus
with the launch of Saakshar Bharat a centrally
sponsored scheme. The objective of the scheme is
to impart functional literacy to 70 million adults in
the age –group of 15-35 years by 2012 out of
which 60 million will be women and special
attention will be given to the disadvantaged and
marginalized social groups.
Cont.,
• These programmes aims to further promote
and strengthen adult education especially for
women by extending educational options to
those adults having lost the opportunity of
access to formal education and crossed the
standard age for receiving such education and
now feel a need for acquiring literacy ,basic
education and vocational education.

Ways to Improve Human Resource
Development: Education, Health and Training
• i) Spread of education: To build up human resource,
general and technical education should be spread
because education is essential for individual and
national development.
• ii) Ensuring proper training: beside education, practical
training is also necessary for human resource
development. Skilled and trained manpower inecessary
for maintaining agriculture, industry, information and
service sectors. To arrange effective training, labor
force of various sectors can be converted into
developed human resource.
Cont.,
• Health sector development: One of the
important pre-condition of human resource
development is quality health service. For human
resource development, an effective initiative for
health service and awareness program should be
extended to villages, industries and all over the
countries.
• Increase of employment facilities: For
employment, huge number of factories and
industries should be established.
Cont.,
• Technical training, eradicating illiteracy, health
and family planning, women's violence
protection, expansion of female education,
women empowerment and women's
participation in development works etc. are
needed for human resource development.
• Ensuring Supply of Food and Nutrition:
Malnutrition is a great problem in our country.
Due to lack of nutrition the brain of child can not
be develop completely and thousands of child
suffer from blindness. As a result, they become a
burden of the society. So supply of food and
nutrition should be ensured immediately
Cont.,
• Increase of investment: Investment should be
increased. For this reason, Govtvernment has
to create investment friendly environment to
attract local and foreign investment.
• Rural development: Most of the people of our
country live in rural areas. But most of them
are unskilled, illiterate and semi-unemployed.
Socio economic infrastructure of rural areas
should be developed to convert them as
human resource.
Cont.,
• Supply of safe drinking water and sanitation:
Most of the people in our country are suffering
from water borne disease. The main reason of
this lack of safe drinking water. So, supply of safe
drinking water and sanitation should be ensured
all over the country.
• Fulfillment of basic needs: Work efficiency
depends on some basic needs such as food,
clothes, shelter, treatment etc. For this reason,
necessary initiatives should be taken to fulfill
these basic needs for human resource
development.
