It is commonly believed in the United States that school iswhere people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it hasbeen said that today children interrupt their education to goto school. The distinction between schooling and education implied by thisremark is important.
Education ismuch more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows nobounds. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or in the job,whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both theformal learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe ofinformal learning. The agents of education can range from a revered grandparentto the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguishedscientist.
Whereasschooling has a certain predictability, education quite often producessurprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person todiscover how little is known of other religions. People are engagedin education from infancy on. Education, then, is a verybroad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that startslong before the start
of school, and one that should be an integral part of ones entire life.
Schooling, onthe other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varieslittle from one setting to the next.
Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximatelythe same time, take assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similartextbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality thatare to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of theworkings of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the
subject being taught. For example, high school students know that they arenot likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems intheir communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with.
There aredefinite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.

上學(xué)與受教育在美國，人們通常認(rèn)為上學(xué)是為了受教育。 而現(xiàn)在卻有人認(rèn)為孩子們上學(xué)打斷了他們 受教育的過程。 這種觀念中的上學(xué)與受教育之間的區(qū)別非常重要。
與上學(xué)相比，教育更具 開放性，內(nèi)容更廣泛。 教育不受任何限制。 它可以在任何場合下進(jìn)行，在淋浴時(shí)，在工作 時(shí)，在廚房里或拖拉機(jī)上。
它既包括在學(xué)校所受的正規(guī)教育，也包括一切非正規(guī)教育。 傳 授知識的人可以是德高望重的老者，可以是收音機(jī)里進(jìn)行政治辯論的人們，可以是小孩子， 也可以是知名的科學(xué)家。 上學(xué)讀書多少有點(diǎn)可預(yù)見性，而教育往往能帶來意外的發(fā)現(xiàn)。 與 陌生人的一次隨意談話可能會使人認(rèn)識到自己對其它宗教其實(shí)所知甚少。
人們從幼時(shí)起就 開始受教育。 因此，教育是一個(gè)內(nèi)涵很豐富的詞，它自始至終伴隨人的一生，早在人們上 學(xué)之前就開始了。
教育應(yīng)成為人生命中不可缺少的一部分。然而，上學(xué)卻是一個(gè)特定的形 式化了的過程。 在不同場合下，它的基本形式大同小異。 在全國各地，孩子們幾乎在同一 時(shí)刻到達(dá)學(xué)校，坐在指定的座位上，由一位成年人傳授知識，使用大致相同的教材，做作業(yè)， 考試等等。
他們所學(xué)的現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中的一些片斷，如字母表或政府的運(yùn)作，往往受到科目范 圍的限制。
例如，高中生們知道，在課堂上他們沒法弄清楚他們社區(qū)里政治問題的真情， 也不會了解到最新潮的電影制片人在做哪些嘗試。
學(xué)校教育這一形式化的過程是有特定的限制的。
