Educational Philosophy Quotes - Page 9

We are the witnesses of a barely perceptible transformation in ordinary language: verbs which formerly expressed satisfying actions have been replaced by nouns which name packages designed for passive consumption only -- 'to learn' becomes 'to accumulate credits'.

Education leans on teaching teaching cannot be without the teacher!

Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

The teacher is of course an artist, but being an artist does not mean that he or she can make the profile, can shape the students. What an educator does in teaching is to make it possible for the students to become themselves.

Every good education system must give a very good account of the past and its lessons, nurture the minds of the present learners in an innovative and creative way for the best today’s life through the good and the bad times, and also lay a solid foundation for the unborn generation.

Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

Not everyone in school is learning. Not everyone learning is in school

Formal education teaches how to stand, but to see the rainbow you must come out and walk many steps on your own.

Amit Ray

None of our achievement matters, than how we have lived our lives.

Lailah Gfty Akita

The strength of every individual is the grace for great work.

Lailah Gifty Akita

Read and search for the answers you seek.

Lailah Gifty Akita

Dare to seek answers to your questions.

Lailah Gifty Akita

You ought to search the Scriptures yourself, to discover the glorious gospel.

Lailah Gifty Akita

The greatest education is the knowledge of God. God gives life, strength and wisdom for every accomplishment.

Lailah Gifty Akita

Knowledge is intellectual art.

Lailah Gifty Akita

Knowledge is a unique kind of property, indeed: you can share it with others, while still possessing it.

Only the foolish would think that wisdom is something to keep locked in a drawer. Only the fearful would feel empowerment is something best kept to oneself, or the few, and not shared with all.

Rasheed Ogunlaru

Education is a relentless voyage of discovery.

Knowledge is worth nothing, until it is put to practice.

The purpose of education should be character-building.

Books may be the most valuable treasure of knowledge, but it is the human mind, that turns that knowledge into wisdom.

Education means nourishing the mind and make it develop in order to see beyond the limitations of current social perception.

The purpose of education should ultimately be the advancement of the species. And for this to actually happen, the world needs the kind of education by means of which character is formed, strength of the mind is increased and the human intellect is expanded beyond its own limits.

There is a system alright, but the actual element of education has long gone.

There is nothing to be gained by pretending that academic involvement is necessary, or even always desirable, in the quest for truth and knowledge.

Christopher Langan

Knowledge is strength.

Lailah Gifty Akita

The point is, education in its truest form, is the foundation of all human endeavors. It is the most noble of all the civilized elements of human consciousness. Education enables the humans to achieve their fullest mental and physical potential in both personal and social life. The ability of being educated is what distinguishes humans from animals. You can teach a cockatoo to repeat a bunch of vocabularies, but you cannot teach it to construct a space shuttle and go to the moon.

Instead of being like a circus where the trainer uses his stick to make animals do stunts to serve the interest of the audience, the system of education should be like an Orchestra where the conductor waves his stick to orchestrate the music already within the musicians’ heart in the most beautiful manner. The teacher should be like the conductor in the orchestra, not the trainer in the circus.

This is not education my friend. It is a process of manufacturing computation devices that look like Homo sapiens, and thereby falsely labeled as Education.

Education enables the humans to achieve their fullest mental and physical potential in both personal and social life.

All systems of the society should serve the mind, instead of the mind serving the systems.

Mind is the Alpha – Mind is the Omega. There is nothing else in the pursuit of knowledge. And more importantly, there is nothing else in education. All systems of the society should serve the mind, instead of the mind serving the systems.

Education means nourishing the mind and make it develop in order to see beyond the limitations of current social perception - it means breaking the barriers of the rugged sociological system that impede in the progress of human civilization - it means trying out new things for the first time in human history and succeeding in a few while failing in some. And that is how a species grows to become more advanced.

Real education leads to the liberation of the mind.

If education were the same as information, the encyclopedias would be the greatest sages in the world.

The system that aims at educating our boys and girls in the same manner as in the circus where the trainer teaches the lion to sit on a stool, has not understood the true meaning of education itself. Instead of being like a circus where the trainer uses his stick to make animals do stunts to serve the interest of the audience, the system of education should be like an Orchestra where the conductor waves his stick to orchestrate the music already within the musicians’ heart in the most beautiful manner. The teacher should be like the conductor in the orchestra, not the trainer in the circus.

A healthy and ideal system of education would be where a teacher would patiently impart knowledge, instead of curriculum, upon the students, only after assessing their acceptability – where a student would acquire knowledge in order to learn, not to earn – where the parents would be willing to make necessary sacrifices in order to adorn their child with curiosity and thereafter nourish that curiosity, regardless of how absurdly impractical it becomes to the eyes of the society.

The methodical implementation of modern human faculties that allow us human beings to transcend the physical limits of biological evolution is Education. However, today, the term education has become somehow synonymous with economic benefits and due to the primeval craving for security, it has disgracefully lost its very core of transcendence into the unknown. Thus, the very evolutionary seeds that gave birth to the method known as education have gone almost extinct in the modern industrialized system of soulless competition and regurgitation. Hence emerged the reason for me to get to the root of its quite unofficially accepted problems, and to concoct the thought processes that would make necessary amendments to the perceptual errors of what I call the three major nodes of education system, which are the teachers, the students and the parents.

Education is not the amount of information that is pushed into the brain and causes havoc there, undigested all through a lifetime. Education must be a symposium of life-building, character- making and assimilation of ideas in the pursuit of building a more harmonious, peaceful and truly civilized world.

Is there any knowledge that refreshes the soul, renew the spirit, and restored the body like the study of the Holy Scriptures?

Ignorance is the darkest depths.

Lailah Gifty Akita

The people of the light, loves the light of knowledge.

Lailah Gifty Akita

The path of light is the quest for knowledge.

Lailah Gifty Akita

In its failure to value differences in the way people learn, the educational process often suppresses intuition, creativity, and your sense of identity.

The more you learn, the more you want to learn.

Lailah Gifty Akita

It is better to seek wisdom of God than human.

Lailah Gifty Akita

I am pain stricken to say that, various “educational” institutions have adopted the medieval doctrine "fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom" as their motto. Let me tell you this, fear of the Lord, Santa Claus, Krishna, Thor, Hulk or any other imaginary being brings merely the illusion of wisdom, not wisdom. And illusion of wisdom is a billion times more harmful than lack of wisdom.

The possibility of the dream gives strength.

Lailah Gifty Akita

Have faith that your child's brain is an evolving planet that rotates at its own speed. It will naturally be attracted to or repel certain subjects.

Education is beautification of the inner world and the outer world.

Amit Ray

If we desire to be close to Spirit of God, we desire to dwell in clean soul with a clean body.

Lailah Gifty Akita

Without the knowledge of God, we are in complete darkness.

Lailah Gifty Akita

The greatest KNOWLEDGE is the knowledge of GOD.

A man only misfortune is to forsake his Maker.

The thought of a man is futile. But the word of God is flawless.

Without the knowledge of God ,we perish.

Lailah Gifty Akita

First knowledge is the knowledge of God.

Lailah Gifty Akita
