But education does not equal school. Especially in school this system of reward and punishment does not work very well. 80 % of what you learn in school will be gone a few month later because in school most of the time you don't learn because you're interested in something but because you're forced to. Real education is nothing you will experience in an average school. Schools don't educate, they recruit. IMHO
Even outside of school, reinforcement is the core behind all behavioral changes. Education is a result of that reinforcement.
If you are talking the "real world" it's all about reward and punishment. A lot of people in life want to get the most rewards for the least punishment.
