Education is the process and/or product of facilitating one's acquisition of KSAs. Education can also be defined as facilitating of one's purposeful learning.
Formal training is the education that is delivered under a formal curriculum and calendar that is officially approved usually by the government or some accreditation body. In most of contemporary countries, formal training consists of compulsory education and post-secondary education.
Compulsory education is the part of formal training that is imposed by government and, with some exceptions, required of all people. In most of contemporary countries, compulsory education consists of primary education and secondary education. The government may impose learning programs for compulsory education in advance.
Learning programs are defined by the curriculum. Curriculum is the aggregate of learning content and learning sequence of a particular course of study or all the courses offered by an educational institution, or their brief description.
The curriculum that is externally imposed in advance is known as prescripted curriculum.
On the contrary, individualized curriculum is tailored to meet the needs of a particular learner. One's learning based on one's individualized curriculum is called individualized learning.
Learning may or may not be organized by educational institutions and/or workforce service providers. Everyone can learn independently. Informal learning is any activity involving the pursuit of knowledge, skills, and abilities which occurs which is not organized by another party.
The bulk of learning occurs through some learning content. This content is contained in something written, spoken, visualized, or created in any other way. Lectures and textbooks are just two of way many examples of the learning content.
Lectures are oral presentations intended to deliver learning content or teach people about a particular subject. Usually, lectures are structured, prepared in advance and delivered by a credentialed lecturer, for instance, a college professor.
Textbooks are compilations of learning content in a particular area of study.
