Abstract

Education and formation are necessary requirements to develop as an individual person or as a collaborative culture. Education is an individual phenomenon which concerns the being and becoming of a subject. However, education simultaneously is a collective phenomenon as well (e.g., language learning). It is used for conventional educational establishments. Traditionally, education targets the purchase of skills and patterns of behavior, of thinking, and of identification. Those prepare the adolescents for their gendered social role. Globalization had an enormous impact on the concept of education and formation. One key aspect of the global conflict lies within the debate of how education can be measured and how the quality of education can be explored in research studies.
