WHAT IS AN EDUCATED PERSON?

An educated person in some people’s eyes is someone who knows a lot, someone
who has retained a large amount of information, someone who can state facts
without having to look them up. Broad knowledge can be valuable, but this is not
an educated person. This is a knowledgeable person. To be educated is not about
how much someone knows. It is about how someone can use what that person
knows to enhance their learning experience. Knowing all the facts in the world
won’t make a person educated unless that person can use those ideas for the sake
of gaining more knowledge. On the other hand if someone is full of ideas but lacks
the knowledge to put them to use, their creativity is void. It takes both creativity
and knowledge to make a truly educated person.

Being an educated person is to view the world as your playground. It is to think


with an open mind and to never be limited to what one has been taught as truth. It
is to blur the line between work and play and to learn not just because one is told
to. An educated person is someone who learns for fun and recognizes that there is
no end to learning, no final certification. This skill could have been gained through
any number of means, but when someone has it, it is apparent. Any person can
become educated; it simply takes the will to learn for the sake of learning and
living.

Educated person to me is someone who acquire knowledge and skills from


everything he or she learns. An educated person is someone who is motivated,
ambitious and courageous to learning new things that out of their comfort. An
educated person are people who love to expand their ideas and knowledge from
different people. Being an educated person is someone very diverse in the way he
sees things and how he approves it.

When you hear the word “educated”, you can surely give your own different
definition, like academic, intellectual, literate or knowledgeable. But being
educated does not necessarily mean having abundant general or specialized
knowledge. It does not only mean having an undergraduate or advanced
degree.Being educated means not only acquiring intellectual qualities, but also
moral qualities
