In most societies education is the process through which the mature members of the society seek to prepare their children and adolescents for the responsibilities and opportunities which exist in the society. In simple hunting, fishing, gathering societies, much of "education" is essentially "learning by doing" through imitation and apprenticeship. Formal instruction, if present at all, is brief, and is often a part of puberty initiation rites. Even in folk societies where formal education does exist it usually consumes but a small portion of the child's day, for a brief period of his life, and this is overshadowed by the "learning by doing," informal aspects of his education.
