"The first principle of true teaching is that nothing can be taught. The teacher is not an instructor or task master, he is a helper and a guide. He does not call forth the knowledge that is within; he only shows him where it lies and how it can be habituated to rise to the surface” – Sri Aurobindo
This principle stated above has a key role to play in the genesis of Adhyaapanam, the e-newsletter from SIES Institute of Comprehensive Education. The vision of this institution is to train teachers, counsellors and special educators in a holistic manner. Through this newsletter, we aim to connect individuals and organisations related to teaching, counselling and special education. Knowledge when shared becomes more meaningful. As a training institute, we endeavor to assist and aid society. All the professional courses that we conduct at the institute are need-based and can be called humane and touching professions. It thus becomes imperative that we not only connect individuals but disseminate relevant field knowledge which is very vital for growth and development.
Through this e newsletter, we aim to ensure multiple perspectives by our contributors that will warrant interesting reading. The topics that are covered in every issue are very contemporary and relevant. Through these articles we wish that our readers understand, dwell, and deliberate the knowledge that they are about to internalize. Once they have internalized this new knowledge, they would transform into harbingers of knowledge and application. In this manner, we not only impact the stakeholders with whom we deal with, but also work towards making our nation progressive and ready for global challenges.
