Abstract

Education and human life cannot be separated, because education as a determinant of the direction of human life, the higher human education will show the higher quality of human life and vice versa. In line with the development of education, however, there are still people who reject the progress of education because they believe that the development of the times is not a guarantee for the realization of independence and peace of mind.
