As argued by many academics, the defining of primary purposes of education requires dynamic flexibility between these conflicting perspectives and the plentiful opinions held by different people with different positions in society. Educational purposes can be divided into those that are individualistic and those that suit the goals of society. Dependency between such purposes is apparent with individual aims needing to be achieved in order for certain social aims to be accomplished too (Merseth, US-World 35 lecture, Sept 18, 2014). However, as exploration…
