Abstract:

This study investigates Confucius' views on education and their relevance in the 4.0 era. Confucius is known as "the great model teacher for centuries" for his dedication to education and his thoughts regarding its role, purpose, substance, and teaching techniques. Confucius founded Confucianism. Confucius felt education should be a right for everyone, not just the affluent. "No class difference in school" quickly transforms people's educational views. It makes formal schooling possible for most individuals. The idea of Confucius is innovative because people from all backgrounds desire justice and equality in education. However, a synthesis of Confucius' education concepts based on past research adds to the literature on educational philosophy. Confucius's thoughts help people worldwide understand the incredible education ideas that have ever developed in moral education. The results of this research can be guided and affect modern educational authorities and policymakers.
