  2. What is Education? Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself. - John Dewey. The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows. - Sydney J. Harris To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society. -Theodore Roosevelt Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten. - B. F. Skinner

  3. What is Education? “I have never let my schooling interfere with my education. -Mark Twain. “You educate a man; you educate a man. You educate a woman; you educate a generation.” - Brigham Young “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” -Aristotle

  4. “[Kids] don't remember what you try to teach them. They remember what you are.” ― Jim Henson “Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.” - ― C.S. Lewis

  5. Then what is education? • The definition of education guiding most schools today is that education is the delivery of knowledge, skills, and information from teachers to students. • This mistaken idea of what true education is and how it can be achieved is the root problem in mainstream education today.

  6. Then What is Education? • We can propose that behind all the differences of opinion about what it means to be educated is one very basic idea: • “an educated person is someone who perceives accurately, thinks clearly, and acts effectively on self-selected goals”. • Another proposal is a map of how insiders (teachers, students, helpers, collaborators, PTA etc) in schools can participate effectively in the learning/ education environment.

  7. QUALITIES OF A MONTFORTIAN GABRIELITE TEACHER • One who moulds Character and persons. • One who Accompanies the Students. • One who is Fascinated by Learning and Imparting Knowledge. • One who believes in love and truth. • One who is familiar with Montfortian Gabrielite Charism and Spirituality. • One who appreciates Cross and Wisdom.

  8. QUALITIES OF A MONTFORTIAN GABRIELITE TEACHER • A teacher who enjoys his/her vocation • A person who treats teaching as a call from God and not as a job. • One who not only teaches subjects but teaches life and values. • One who is concerned about the students’ human and spiritual dignity. • One who promotes Peace, Love, Justice, Equality and Fear of God.

  9. A teacher who plants the seed but growing will take time. • You are an expert on your subject. • You feel like more than a teacher-you are a counsellor, disciplinarian, parent, coach, mentor, guide and role model. • Your Students are asking questions and not just giving answers. • You practice strength and patience
