New Delhi, 30th August: “We must understand the educational needs of students with empathy to get cemented in teaching profession,” believes Propounder Needonomics School of Thought Prof. Madan Mohan Goel, a three-time Vice-Chancellor and superannuated Professor of Economics Kurukshetra University. He was conducting a workshop for the teachers of Basava International School Dwarka, New Delhi on the topic ‘Excellence Models for Teachers in a Changing Economic Scenario’. Ms. Poornima Ambli General Manager presided over the function. Ms Gunjan Mehrotra Principal delivered the welcome address and presented a citation on the achievements of Prof. M.M. Goel.
Prioritize learning over teaching by enriching the role of teachers to make learning the ultimate goal, told Prof Goel.
Teachers must become facilitators of exploration by encouraging students to actively seek answers and develop creativity, innovation and critical thinking, said Prof. Goel.
There is a strong case for strengthening the true educational value, which goes beyond merely making a person capable of earning a livelihood (from unpad to Ann pad) as the economics of education, instead of enhancing its worth, has diminished its real value, observed Professor Goel, a fourth-generation teacher from a family dedicated to education.
To reestablish teaching as a profession, rather than just a vocation, we need honest, humane, and hardworking teachers to impart real education as proper, productive, and practical (3P) use of hands, heads, and hearts (3H), explained Prof. Goel.
We can achieve morality, opulence, victory, and empowerment to actively contribute to socio-economic development with common sense approach of Needonomics,” said Prof. Goel.
Needonomics is the only right way to solve the problems caused by Greedonomics, believes Prof Goel.
To reclaim the true value of education for crafting the future, teachers must become street SMART—simple, moral, action-oriented, responsive, and transparent,” explained Prof. Goel.
