Wisepicks For 19 January - The Minds Journal

Rinku Shah

Don’t teach them

to think!

Neha Jethi

A class with only one opinion

gives you a path to follow,

while a class with different visions

helps you in making one.

Mary Kirkpatrick

Learning by rote,

No opinion, no vote,

Leads to conformity,

And complacent uniformity.

Neha Jethi

Sometimes a teacher

have to be an empty vessel too,

to understand students

point of view.

Arlene Larocque Jones

Dictating material
is not teaching

Having an open mind
and differences in opinions
is where the learning begins

Julie Gronau

When open thoughts are stifled,

everyone thinks the same.

Sarrveshwaran

With curiosity in the mind,

creativity you shall find.

Shilpika Bagh

Structured instruction

may make them learn it;

intellectual discussion

will make them earn it.

Sulekha Pande

A teacher’s job

is to inspire originality,

don’t straightjacket their minds,

it will kill and smother

their creativity.
