goal of education

The principal goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept everything they are offered.

When you teach a child something, you take away forever his chance of discovering it for himself.

Only education is capable of saving our societies from possible collapse, whether violent or gradual.

Play is the answer to how anything n

-- Jean Piaget, Swiss clinical psychologist.

Why Does One Read Books?

(In this letter, Jawaharlal Nehru tells his daughter Indira which books to read and why He sent this letter from the district jail, Almora, on 22 February, 1935.) You have accepted my suggestion that I should send you books from time to time... Most of the books I get here are reu books, just published. Some of them are good, and yet I wonder how many will survive after a few years. There was an old zule that was dinned into me when I was about your age: don't read books less than fifty years old. The idea obviously was that a lapse of that period will sift the good from the bad and the indifferent, and if a book survived, it was likely to be worth reading. It was a good rule. It cannot of course apply is scientific, historical, political, economic and similar subjects, in which continuous research work is resulting in an addition of knowledge.

Development is a Culture

Development is a Culture అభివృద్ధి అనేది... ఆలోచన విధానంలో ఉంటుంది. ప్రణాళికలో ఉంటుంది. ధనాన్ని ఉపయోగించే పద్ధతిలో ఉంటుంది. అవకాశం వచ్చినప్పుడు దాన్ని ఎలా ఉపయోగించాలో తెలిసే తీర్పులో ఉంటుంది. సమస్య వచ్చినప్పుడు దాన్ని ఎలా తట్టుకోవాలో తెలిపే దృక్పథంలో ఉంటుంది. అభివృద్ధి అనేది... భౌతిక వనరుల దాటి మనసు స్థాయికి సంబంధించిన విషయం. ఇది సంస్కృతిగా పరిగణించాలి. ఇది ఒక కుటుంబంలో పిల్లలకు చిన్నప్పటినుంచి నేర్పవలసిన జీవన శైలి. పరిశుద్ధత, పట్టుదల, ప్రణాళిక, పరస్పర సహకారం, బాధ్యతా పూరిత జీవన విధానం — ఇవన్నీ కలసి అభివృద్ధి సంస్కృతిని ఏర్పరుస్తాయి. దీరూబాయ్ అంబానీ వారసత్వం ఇద్దరికీ సమానంగా వచ్చిందేమో కానీ... అభివృద్ధిని చూసే దృక్పథం మాత్రం ఒక్కరిలో మాత్రమే బలంగా వృద్ధి చెందలేదు. అందుకే తేడా వచ్చింది. ఇప్పటి యువతలో చాలా మందికి అవకాశాలు ఉన్నాయి... కానీ అభివృద్ధి కల్చర్ ను అలవరచుకోవాలనే ఆలోచన తక్కువగా కనిపిస్తోంది. ఈ భావనను అందరికీ బోధించాల్సిన అవసరం ఎంతైనా ఉంది. __ పిళ్లా కుమారస్వామి,9059054756
