The best way
to learn is
to teach
Children are the greatest gifts from God. They bring smiles to our lives. They learn from us. They depend on us. We learn from them. We relive our childhood as we watch them grow.They light up our lives.We live for them.We are their role models.They are there when we are in need. They are special. They are priceless.
Extraordinary educators
foster rethinking cycles
by instilling intellectual humility.
It disseminate doubts
and cultivate curiosity.
Learning has to be focussed
less on being right
and more on building the skills
to consider different views
and argue productively about them.
ADAM GRANT ON LECTURES
IN
THINK AGAIN
Lectures are not always the best method of learning. They are not enough to develop students into lifelong learners.
If you spend all your student days being fed information and are never given the opportunity to question it, you won't develop the tools for rethinking that you need in life.
Valedictorian
valɪdɪkˈtɔːriən
A valedictorian is the highest-ranking academic student in graduating class. Typically selected based on having the highest Grade Point Average (GPA), this student is awarded the honor of delivering the farewell speech (the "valedictory" address) at the graduation ceremony.
Etymology and Origin
Latin Roots:
The term originates from the Latin phrase vale dicere, which simply translates to "to say farewell".
Tradition:
The practice dates back to 1750 at Harvard University, where the student chosen to deliver the farewell was initially selected for their speaking ability to keep ceremonies entertaining, before it became strictly an academic award.
How They Are Chosen
While GPA is the primary metric in high schools and colleges across North America, the selection process can sometimes factor in other achievements that the Institutions might consider.
Pope Leo
Life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together.
Anyone who doesnot know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life.
