Self-education.

[varun bee]

being a surgeon or scientist needs a lab & peer checks so its highly unlikely that someone can accomplish those skills just by self educating. we live in a world full of leverage & one can utilize internet to learn some skill but being totally self educated specially on internet & having no other point of learning may not be ideal situation. real world application is important & different in many fields, theoretically whats written & how it can be done may turn out to be a different thing. unlike in sports, nobody 'taught' maradonna or pele the skills they had, what they had was pure instinct, skill & prowess of their own. so it differs in every aspect.

People often forget that their own developmnet and success depends on their own. How much you invest in yourself, that much you will get in return and education plays very important role.
Today all possible education tools are available to anyone on the internet and other communication tools so there is no excuse for not learning. It only takes a lot of your will and time but education can be carried out almost free.
Don't ever forget that your knowledge no one can't steal from you and the more educated you are, the richer you are. And I don't mean in financial way.

I have been taking online classes from udemy, and I have learned and applied a lot of stuff from them so I believe that this is possible.
A lot of people especially freelancers have become specialists just from self-education. They start learning the basics from others, then self educate.

Self-education is the morality of a human. No one can archive Self-education. It is to acquire the society,  from family, from counrty, to humans.Those who are Self-educated, are very polite, humbal, beautiful people of mind.

Hell Yeah, You can definitely Be a great human by yourself. The Internet is the worlds biggest library and it has each and everything you need in life and even if you can not find the stuff you are looking for you can ask anyone to help you on that and you will get that help. We are at an era which was not even possible for bill gates or any billionaire. I learned to programme myself and now I get paid for teaching it to others.

Self education is actually very common in this time, websites like CBTNUGGETS are there and they have a lot of tutorials for whatever that you may seek to learn.

I wonder if anyone can sit alone and study by himself. I remember when I was in secondary school and I decided to learn one full topic by myself. I struggled for over one month but in was not getting the concept. You will not believe this. Self-education is not an easy task. There may be some tip offs that you might need to get before everything becomes easier for you.

The human mind has an immense power that not all individuals understand. Most folks are happy enough with the education we tend to get in class, however, we will achieve much greater heights when we get out of those boundaries.

Since all resources are out there, there's no reason to delay your journey through self-education any longer.
I will say it all depends on you.. what do you really want to archive?
If you need your handheld or need outside influence to get you to do the necessary work, then a formal path is much more suitable because in the professional world, there are no advisors, no helpful classmates. In short, no one cares what happens to you.
But if you’re planning to sustain the motivation to finish a deep self-education course of study, the application should be placed 1st. Otherwise, it's too straightforward to lose sight of the large image and stop learning.
Perhaps what is most important to understand is that to succeed you must be confident in your ability to learn new things. Whether your self-taught or university taught, you need to be able to take what you’ve learned and apply  it, and there’s no better way to do this than through real-life experience
One of the first steps to smart studying is going the extra mile in your learning, The upside is that if you have truly found your passion--your thing--in life, learning and becoming an expert will be fun and exciting. If this is not the case, you have made the wrong choice

Education is a basic need of Man. It is a must for all kinds kinds of development. In fact, education is the main precondition of progress and prosperity. So,we must ensure self- education.
Formal education begins with primary education. So,compulsory primary education should be ensured. Every child must go to School. No boy or girl should remain outside. We can do discription self education with education for all example. Child labour must be stopped. The government should help the poor parents financially. Social awareness about the importance of education be increased.
We must try to minimize the number of dropouts. Female education mist be ensured. We all know that half of population of Bangladesh is woman. We can not expect an Educated nation without educating them. So female students should be encouraged more and more. Only educated mothers can present us an educated nation. If all the mother are educated, no Child can be deprived of the light of education.
Access to education is the birthright of man. No discrimination should prevail here. The poor should enjoy the same facilities as the rich. In fact People from all walks of life must be given the same advantages.
"Education for all" is now an international slogan.The present World needs liberal hands, heads and hearts. It is education that makes a man liberal. So,good and quality education must be given to children from the very beginning.
So we can say from here that self- education is an importance part of life.

It is important as regular school education because if you dont have one of them you be confused in this world ...,many things that you learn in school is just basics of your knowledge, so to expand you knowledge you need self education to learn even more and not to mention that many thing that you learn in school is falsehood as you learn trough self education in your life .I learn that many of things that i learn and heard from other people a lot of that was lies but if you are smart youll never be satisfied with one answer, one side of story and youll never belive just from one source youll always want to make your own resarch so thats why self education is so important

Yeah information nowadays are very easily accessed that you don't even need to spend a lot to make yourself knowledgeable in a lot of areas. This generation has progressed so fast that the current educational system may be outdated in a few more years.

Self education

Self education is a task that we trying to understand by ourselves hadn't learn before.
For an example everyone learn  by them selves, think when how babies speak the words
First they listen very carefully and gain in mind that what they listen and speak back.

What we hear what we see after a process memorized  and coming with a answer will
can be discube as self education.

I would still rather choose to go to the library and find a better books than searching craps most of the time on the internet.

Or just to know nothing than to be a dumb believing most of the lies that can be found on the internet. That is the reason why most of us are too lazy finding real informations

[Criptomen]

Somewhere I subtracted the idea that to become a master in something you should do this for 10,000 hours. Fully agree with this. If you just read and watch, it will not give you much. You need actions.

Self-education is a powerful thing, but sometimes it's hard to force yourself to learn something.

[mrcash02]

It can work if the person is curious, smart and seek for real knowledge, not status. But it's not that easy... With a tutor, teacher, master it can be more didactic and this another person can help you to expand your horizons, he/she can present you informations you didn't have any notion before (and that you would never have any notion with pure self-education, by yourself). If you can have help from somebody else to educate yourself, don't waste this chance.

Unfortunatelly for some people self-education means to be self-sufficient, and no one can be self-sufficient in this world...

[jak3]

Of course, you can, you have the Internet and you have those disc space. You can get almost every resource on the internet even you can get the video lessons and the internet. Still, you think that you do not have the authority to learn yourself. Come on it's not 1970 anymore people can learn whatever they want in just blink of the eye. I am interested in programming and I just start learning at around two years ago from the internet because I know that I cannot rely on my local college to teach me well. Even if I pay the Educational Institutes they only teach me the half of the syllabus which they had. I have managed to learn a lot from the internet and with my hard work, I have practiced that each day until I am very comfortable with what I have learned and I can use it to make my life easier.

I have read inspiring success stories and testimonies of some professionals that they have learned their professions through self study before application.

And with those shared stories that's very possible to become specialist but you have to gain experience too.

[bluefirecorp_]

Any education requires "self-education". You can't really force someone to relearn something (short of educational camps).

Using third-party providers, such as teachers (irl), youtube videos, Wikipedia, or other sources to further your education is possible. Normally, people take the more "official" way, but there's plenty of honary degrees issued from plenty of universities.

100%, I learnt programming from the age of 14, just starting reading with books, demo-ing out the code, and then building virtually any program/site I wanted to, even if it was just for fun.

Now I'm actually a professional developer with 9 years experience.

I think the Internet is the best tool for free knowledge, and has fundamentally changed the requirement for many careers.

For sure it was harder before when you are starting.

There are forums and other websites that you can now rely and depend to what they are teaching to know more about programming.
