How good this girl in academics?
Please watch before 'Ken Robinson' TED talk.
“ human beings are naturally different and diverse”
“If you get two children or more ...they are completely
different from each other”
“If you can spark of curiosity in a child, they will learn
without any further assistance, very often”
“Teacher are life blood of success of the schools ...teaching
is a creative profession. But not a delivery system”
“ ...in the end, teaching
is about learning, if there is no learning going on, there is not education
going on”
is it not necessary to take actions right now?
Please tell....what to do and how to do.....
