"もし教育が単なる知識の伝達という古臭い路線に沿って常に考えられるのなら、それから人類の未来の改善を期待することはほとんどできない。"
— Maria Montessori
Simplified Meaning:
If we think of education as just passing down information from teacher to student like it was done a long time ago, it won’t help us improve our future much. Imagine if we only taught kids how to memorize facts and figures without teaching them how to think critically or solve problems. This method is outdated and won't prepare them for modern challenges. For example, it's like teaching someone to ride a horse when they need to learn how to drive a car. They might know how to move forward, but they won't get very far in today's world. To make a better future, education must help students understand how to apply knowledge, think for themselves, and be creative. So, schools should focus on developing these skills instead of just making students memorize information.
