In this lecture, Kitcher discusses education as playing a central role in our society, learning, and well-being as humans.
From the source: "Rather than thinking of education as consisting in the production of productive workers, Kitcher proposed that we should see it as growing people who can live together as fellow citizens and enjoy fulfilling lives. He believes our central task as human beings is to leave the world better than we found it, and to enable our successors to continue the process of improvement. "
