Answer 1

Education should be about what you like to do and not cramming things you don’t want to know about.

Education should be based on ideas and not facts. Though his thoughts were not appreciated in his school but Albert Einstein turned out to be one of the greatest mind the world ever produced.

His take on education was ideological and important.
