Founder
admits that he used to "bunk" Engineering
and MBA college because he thought teachers were saying
what is there in books. It is academics and library
books do that only. He passed but he failed.
Passed academic exam but failed is understanding teacher.
He
thought his mother Aai, who conducted Montessory indirectly
taught him "Value Education". It was not in
Montessory but in life.
He
thinks teachers must go beyond books. They must ensure
that their student understands real background. 2 x
2 = 4 is not something which they should teach. They
should teach the concept of multiplication and give
example like 2 x 2 = 4 and ask children how much is
12345 x 6789 and when the children say 83810205, they
should say it is right and the student has understood
multiplication.
But
life is far difficult than 3 x 3 because our life (more
so because of climate change) is affected by 7.8 billion
present people on earth plus billions of others who
were on earth in last 2800000 years.
Founder
was told by Vikasdada that founder's son who got admission
in medical college must attend lectures because teachers
know far more on the topic they teach than student.
Of course, there can be some cases where teachers may
not know many things beyond academics ... but that is
life.
Founder
thought Practicals in Engineering and even in his science
college days were important because you see the change.
In
medical colleges, in practicals you can see
Just a pregnant lady (only 1 human being)
Then within seconds, you see mother and her child or
2 in case of twins ... or
patients heart condition was different before and after
the operation.
That is what you see in practicals
Not just read in theory
In
business, when the leader helps the company grow substantially,
she or he does not work alone but governs people who
make change. So it is practical.
In
Business Schools they teach but when students go for
internship it is practical teaching.
In
Politics, leaders tell you how to win minds of voters.
Even
in naxalites, the leader by self example is a teacher
of focus.
In army, every leader teaches you how to use "Gun
or pistol or ... perfectly to ensure killing of enemy.
So its perfection.
The
idea is respect good teachers.
And even if the teachers are bad, dont neglect them.
