The role of the student is to learn and use what is being taught. Experience and observation are valuable elements in education. Knowledge gained through these means cultivate and establish discipline in a child s mind and behavior. Education, teaching, and learning are never ending. I believe that human nature is constant but at the same token, education has made a difference and a great impact in our rationale.
Truth is the foundation on which precepts and examples are built upon.
The principle of a truth can remain constant in our nature, but that which is built upon it may alter depending upon the knowledge gained. Human characteristics, rules, and education may start out one way but gradually change influenced by surroundings, circumstances, events, and experiences. From the beginning of man, things were done by instinct and not reason. The past is important for our knowing, but to hold it as the only dogma constrains the mind from moving forward in obtaining more knowledge. With the changes in technology and scientific discoveries, education must progress and strive to keep up with the many changes.
