how do you feel that the role of ancient guru has changed in the present society? which qualities of ancient guru you would like to adopt as a teacher? why?
Answers
In olden days gurukuls were the centres of education. The students used to live with the gurus and they took care of their all round development.
While in the present times, education is imparted in schools and colleges. The teachers impart secular knowledge. Extra-curricular activities in the school help to develop the other aspects of the student's personality. So the role of the teacher is mostly restricted to the classroom. But there are many teachers who are role models for their students. They mentor and nurture the students.
Some of the good qualities of the ancient gurus that I would like to adopt are:
Example is better than precept. I would like to live an exemplary life and be a role model for my students.
I would like to inspire them to be good citizens who uphold the moral values in society.
I would like to teach them values along with secular knowledge.
So that my students can develop an all round personality.
As a teacher i would like to teach the value education and morality lesson to m students as the duty of a teacher is not only confined to the modern scientific teaching but students must be teach the value education for the better society development.
