Meaningful Education The Last and Final Part!
Hello,
It is time to wind up this topic with these following words:
The Teacher must select the proper method of teaching i.e, weeding out
the unessential and helping the students to concentrate on
the main ideas of the subject. teaching should be a voyage
of discovery rather than imparting of information. The student should not be
treated as an empty vessel to be filled with facts, formulae and
theorems. The teacher should help him in grasping the basic
structure of the subject so that the student may be able to learn
by himself the latest developments in the subject. .He should
become a perennial student, carrying out the Holy Prophet's
(PBUH) command: Seek ye knowledge from the cradle to
the grave. This is the only way to meet the ominous challenge
of the explosion of knowledge, which is making the latest
knowledge obsolete within a decade. In the most profound
sense to be independent and to be original is to fulfil
oneself as a person. Each student is a unique bundle of potentialities.
The task of the teacher is to tap and release these potentialities.
The teacher must enthuse the student so that he stretches
himself to the maximum. Self-realisation means self-knowledge.
It should be the prime function of education to bring the
student to a knowledge of his own individuality. It is here that
one realises the profundity of Hadith, Nabvi: He who understands
himself understands God".Original thinking implies that
knowledge is not so much an explanation as an attempt to explain,
and hence the explanation is always tentative. The teacher is
always on his guard against dogmatism. All theories are
tentative. All theories are only guided to action. The moment
they are turned into dogmas, they become useless. If a student
is to cultivate a creative attitude towards his studies, he should
keep in mind the following.
- What he knows is largely mediated through cultured categories.
It is largely through these categories that knowledge may be understood.
To many of these categories there exist alternatives within the culture.
To be true to himself, he should seek those categories
that correspond to his own experience of life.
- He should strive to be open and flexible towards all that
he learns. He will never close his mind to fresh ideas, new values,
and novel dreams He should keep in mind what Iqbal
says:
A living heart is the creator of new ages and new worlds,
Through imitation, his soul loses illumination.
