Children have everything to learn. This should be their main preoccupation in order to prepare themselves for a useful and productive life. Education means three things, to teach how to observe and know rightly the facts on which they have to form a judgement; secondly , to train the children to think fruitfully and soundly; thirdly, to fit the children to use their knowledge and their thought effectively for their own and the common good. Capacity of observation and knowledge, capacity of intelligence and judgement, capacity of action and high character are required for the citizenship of a rational order of society; a general deficiency in any of these is sure source of failure. As the children grow up, they must discover in themselves the thing of things which interest them most and which they are capable of doing well. There are latent faculties to be developed. There are also faculties to be discovered. Children must be taught to like to overcome difficulties, and also that this g...

Traditional approaches to supervision of instruction may have emphasized the following techniques: The supervisor studying the lesson plan developed by the teacher prior to observing actual teaching. The supervisor becoming knowledgeable about the capacity, achievement, and home background of students to be observed in actual teaching-learning situations. The supervisor having a meeting with the teacher following the observational visit.the teacher and supervisor developing basic agreement as to ways of improving the quality of teaching. In the new method, the supervisor basically would follow the following procedure prior to and during the time an observational visit is made to the class settings: i. The supervisor would first of all study the objectives of the teacher. These objectives may be revised through the co-operative efforts of the teacher and supervisor. ii. The supervisor would then observe actual teaching going on. iii. Following observation of teaching, the supervisor wou...

Educational technology includes all educational resources --- men and materials, methods and techniques, means and media in an integrated and systematic manner to optimize learning. Learning not teaching is the crucial task of the educational process. Technology is one component in this process and can help make learning easy and interesting. A large number of schools have gone headlong into computer education --- not really computer-based education --- and usually what this means is learning how to use a computer for different tasks, including mathematical operations (statistics, spreadsheets, geometric modeling) and desktop publishing (bringing out a class magazine or making posters). Computer-based education, on the other hand, implies the use of computers as a means to educate. Lessons are designed using the capacities of the computer to stimulate, organize information, and present materials that are visual, auditory and text-based, all within the same frame. Such computer-based ed...

In the present age, almost everyone is hoping for a change in the system in which a school functions. Education should be such that it meets everyone’s needs. Students, these days, are especially fed up with the education they are receiving. Education consists of three things, where the first is, to teach to observe and know the basic facts that would enable the students in forming judgements; secondly, to train children to think fruitfully and soundly; thirdly, to teach children to use their knowledge and their thought effectively for their own, as well as the common good. When students feel good about where they are, they tend to be more relaxed, creative and open to learning new things. Comfortable desks and appealing classrooms would help improve learning, while a student lounge, large auditorium and cafeteria would aid towards an ideal school. Curriculum and equipment are the major factors that should be considered when creating an ideal school. Unfortunately, most schools today l...

Success is rarely accomplished without assistance somewhere along the way. The component elements of society are so interrelated, and so interdependent, that it is difficult to conceive of a situation where the work of one person does not either directly or indirectly affect another. Practice positive thinking every day and engage freely with others in the exchange of thoughts and ideas. The aid that you will receive will be of immense value. Great stimulation will stem from the inspiration of others, and your own particular efforts will be considerably accelerated to the achievement of your purposes.

I know a song writer who often gets his hit tunes while he is asleep. His subconscious mind works on the tune while he is asleep. It then comes to him as though he were in a dream. After heaving it in this sort of dream state, he awakens himself and puts the tune down on paper. It is like recording a dream that you want to remember. The utilization of the subconscious in this manner is an integral link in the chain of success. There are thousand approaches to the road that ultimately lead to success, but once the approaches have led you to the proper road, one must travel the “straight” and “narrow” the rest of the way. It is marked along the way with difficulties, and each milestone brings you closer to the goal, and each milestone is charged with a deep and gratifying reward of its own. Eventual success is the sum total of all these rewarding experiences merged into one glorious sensation of achievement. We now have a reasonable and logical question, can each of us do this by ours...

A young boy was fascinated to see the stirrings of life in a cocoon. The moth inside was struggling to free itself, but the process was slow and tedious. Thinking he would help the moth, he slit the cocoon with his pocketknife, and the insect emerged freely. But it had none of the expected colour, it couldn’t fly, and it soon died. The boy later learned that a moth’s struggle to free itself is a necessary part of its development, and that the process stimulates body fluids that give luster to its wings. Most of us must confess that we find it difficult to endure times of suffering and trial patiently. However, bitter disappointments, painful suffering, and shattering sorrow can be a means of strengthening our character.

We think about our critics that they are prejudiced and their remarks arouse a natural antagonism in us. But, they may contain more than truth. If nothing else, their criticism should remind us that perhaps our actions and motives do not appear to be as pure and worthy to others as we think they are. We all have a natural tendency to retaliate when someone questions our motives and actions. If you are wise, listen to your critics. Adverse remarks could be a blessing in disguise – if you take a positive attitude and derive from them a new understanding of your own shortcomings. The response we make to our critics is really a judgment on our own character.

In the olden times, inns/rest houses were available, but were often unsafe and uncomfortable. Travelers had to rely on relations or acquaintances to get a night’s lodging. Our homes are a very private part of our lives; home is where we go when we want to escape some of life’s pressures. We feel safe and secure there. To open our homes to others opens part of ourselves to them. By offering hospitality, we invite others to enjoy the blessings we enjoy. It takes a little work, but it is well worth the effort. In our busy lives, we may think hospitality is too time consuming. But we need to take the time to welcome others to enjoy our food and fellowship. If we do it with joy, we may be surprised by the joy we receive.

Do you know people who start to tell you all their troubles just as soon as you meet them ? They are constantly lamenting about their problems. They never seem to get out of their dilemma. One unpleasant experience after another seems to befall them. If you happen to be one of these unfortunates, stop telling the world your troubles. People have their own problems. It is always desirable to talk about your new goals and aspirations. The repetition will firmly implant these ideas both in conscious and subconscious mind. Besides, there must always be a positive action, and your action must reflect your new thinking. If you follow this plan, ideas and solutions to your problems will automatically come to you. It is a well known fact that inventors and creative people agree that many of their ideas just seem to come to them without conscious effort at all times. Once an idea is set into motion, the subconscious mind will come up with the solution.

Every new idea, somewhere down the line, will be met with either indifference or skepticism. There is an ingrained reluctance on the part of most people to accept new things. Thomas Edition found a great deal of resistance in having his electric light bulb accepted because he had neither formal education nor scientific reputation. People were being criticized for being able to talk through a hollow wire, as the telephone was called in its early days. These men, these inventors, had something in common and that was a resourcefulness, an ingenuity, and a deep faith in their own ability to reproduce their dream. They had hope and enthusiasm. They had to struggle long and hard but they never considered giving up.

Its bad enough to blame our parents, peers or circumstances for our wrong doing. There was a person on a weight loss programme who bought some donuts. When asked why, he replied that it was not his fault, because someone had opened a bakery in front of a parking place and while driving out from the parking lot, he had no option, but to buy some donuts, as he was heading home. When we do something wrong, we should take the blame, and not look for scapegoats.

All of us need a word of encouragement from time to time, and especially when we are facing a major new challenge. But we also need words of appreciation and commendation as we carry our daily responsibilities, whether at home or at work. When a student in a prestigious school committed suicide, an effort was made to find out the reason. The student’s belongings were examined, but nothing conclusive was found. Nothing could be uncovered that gave any clue as to why he took his life, that is, until a note was discovered. It simply said “In the last five years, I have never had one word of encouragement. I’m fed up.” Many people crave for small sign of approval. They need a word of recognition, a caring smile, a warm handshake and an honest expression of appreciation for the good we see in them or in their work..

Two mistakes are commonly made in setting goals. One is putting them very high that they can never be realized. When a not-too-bright young man was asked what he aspired to be, he replied, “A genius”. That’s an example of an unattainable goal. The other mistake is setting our sights too low. Psychologists tell us that the people who come from poor families often do this. They work hard and attain a better standard of living than their parents, but they may actually be capable of going much higher.

We ask our students, “Why do you study”? The immediate replies from the students include: for grades, admissions, ranks, bright future, happy parents. Surprisingly, no one thinks of knowledge. We explain to our students that it is very important to be knowledge-motivated and not grade-motivated. Not that grades are of no importance, but grades follow knowledge. Grades are merely scales by which we measure knowledge. Grades do not constitute knowledge. This distinction is vitally important. There are two negative aspects to grade-motivated learning. One is ego, and the other hostility. We always acclaim the toppers. Our actions boost the child’s ego. A child whose ego is thus inflated refuses to accept failure. Thus, the joy of learning is slaughtered systematically. The second aspect is hostility. Grade-motivated studies make a child hostile. All teachers must have noticed a certain unwillingness among the students to discuss their grades when answer scripts are returned after evalu...

School heads should ensure the smooth operation of their schools – now and in future – by developing at least one understudy. Ask yourself : Who would be capable of taking over my job tomorrow if something happened to me ? Rarely, if ever, do good school heads allow themselves to get caught in a situation where their people are left without a leader. They make sure a capable backup is always available – whether they’re away on a trip, out sick, or given the opportunity to move to a better job. Nor do good school heads wait until the last minute – when it may be too late – to train a qualified backup. They pick possible successors early in the game and delegate different parts of the job to them – significant parts, not trivial ones. Weak school heads view subordinates as threats and keep everything close to the rest. Strong ones do just the opposite – they familiarize key people with their duties and give them a feeling for what its like to do their job. People who are given added resp...
