The Law of ACTIVITY (of the Lesson)
The Law of ACTIVITY - Maximum learning is always the result of maximum involvement.
Knowledge cannot be passed like a material substance from one mind to another, for thoughts are not objects which may be held and handled.... Ideas must be rethought, experience must be re-experienced. - Gregory
The disciple is not above his master but, every one that is perfect shall be as his master. Luke 6:40
(paraphrase- The fully trained will be like his teacher.)
"Your task as a communicator is not to impress people, but to impact them;
not just to convince them, but to change them."
Activity in learning is never an end in itself; it's always a means to an end.
"We sure have the students busy." "Doing What?" "Nothing, but they're sure having a ball."
Never forget your purpose. "What in the world are you trying to do to these people?"
- Practice makes perfect ... no Well guided practice makes perfect.
- Experience is the best teacher ... no Properly evaluated experience is the best
- We learn by doing ... no We learn by doing the right things.
I hear, and I forget. - I see, and I remember. - I do, and I understand,... and I change. Visually oriented society - TV!
Ears to Hear, let him hear. ... Either stop calling me Lord or start doing what I ask.
- Christian Education is not knowledge,... it is active obedience.
- On the Spiritual plane the opposite of ignorance is obedience.
