Reflections..

Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world... Nelson Mandela

"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself." ...John Dewey

"Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results." ... John Dewey
