It should be much more than that. Education should be learning basic skills like reading and writing, but it should also be about critical thinking, learning how to evaluate information, deciding what is true and what is false, and gaining knowledge from the greatest thinkers and scholars who wrote the books that we study today. An educational system based on just cramming information from books is not teaching students how to think-- it is just teaching them to memorize. It is certainly important to have a good memory, but it is also important to be able to interpret and assess what you are learning.
