Teaching..Learning..Education !!!

It's not EASY for me to deal but I'll give it a shot.. I don't know what I'll come out with..

Teaching.. is an academic process which involves a giver who imparts knowledge and a learner who receives the conveyed information, for e.g. a teacher and a student. And due to the teaching, students are motivated to learn in ways that make a sustained, substantial, and positive influence on how they think, act, and feel. In teaching a teacher contributes positively to the learning environment by providing exceptional energy, keen interest in students and extraordinary strengths. Teaching guides students successfully through exploration of the creative, critical thinking and problem solving processes. It can also help them in dealing with ideas and information they need to develop in their own understanding.

Learning..as I have known..is a continuous behavioural process from the day we born till the day we die. But if I switch to a broader spectrum, learning could be anything from exploring new things and getting better at it, having a better understanding of the ambience we are living in, journey of understanding and development of an idea, analysing or reflecting on the information acquired and after validating those information using them when necessary. One very significant aspect of learning is that it's a covert activity, completely personal to oneself. But the question here is how do we know that we are learning ? And who should decide how well we are learning ??

Before moving forward I really feel that isn't it ironic that we throw so much money, time and effort into trying to achieve something that we cannot define? And not only public or Govt. schools and their supporters, but many independent folks, one of those many is I myself. 

Education..is an act or we may say, process that leads a person to better understanding of the situations in his/her life. It is a process of getting informed, process of learning, process of enlightening experience. Education, is about learning to interpret events and experiences in an increasingly mature and wise way. In order to do this, we must know things that is, accumulate knowledge and experience. And we must understand things that is, accumulate insight and wisdom. Education requires learners to ask why, not just what and how.
