Students
of Grade 4 had a guest lecture on the Topic ‘Educare’ by a parent of student of
Grade 2, Mrs. Neelima. She explained the meaning of ‘Educare’ — Education with
human values. Education has two aspects: The first is related to external
and worldly education, which is nothing but acquiring bookish knowledge. In the
modern world, we find many well-versed and highly qualified in this aspect.
The
second aspect known as Educare is related to human values. Human values are
latent in every human being — one cannot acquire them from outside. They have
to be elicited from within. Educare means to bring out human values. To 'bring
out' means to ‘translate them into action.’
She
also explained the human values with examples and small stories:
1.
Satya – Truth
2.
Dharma – Duty
3.
Shanthi – Peace
4.
Prema – Love
5.
Ahimsa – Non-violence
