To large extent, man’s advancement depends on the teachers of the world, both inside and outside the educational institution. It is a mistake to think teaching as limited to installing subject matter, assigning tasks, examining, and giving rewards and punishment. These are only some of the mechanical teaching techniques and teaching never should be merely mechanical. The teacher has a great role to play in preventing teaching from becoming mechanical.

He attempts to work with the child a way of life which will enable him to be physically fit, economically efficient, morally and emotionally stable, intellectually awake, and efficient in his civic relations.
