SHRI AUROBINDO GHOSH



" The chief aim of education should be to help the growing soul, to grow out than in itself which is best and makes it perfect for a noble use "

Aurobindo Ghosh was a great Indian poet, philosopher, journalist, Indian nationalist and a highly spiritual person. His philosophy was mainly based on Vedanta and Upanishad. He is very good in English, Latin, Greek, French, German and Spanish. It was a blend of oriental and occidental culture, spiritual and material values, Science and Vedanta. Everyone has in him something divine, something of his own. The task is to find it, develop and use it. According to him education is not only for the evolution of the individual alone but for the nation, and for humanity. Education should be child centered, it should based on the needs and interests of the children.

Integral Education

Integral education is a complete system of education. It develops not only cognitive mind but it develops physical, vital, mental,  spiritual, and psyche aspects of personality also. Here the word ‘Integral’ means ‘total’. It nourishes a sense of integrity, beauty and harmony in all aspects of humanity. With the help of innovative techniques of imparting education and activity based learning, students are equipped with multi skills and abilities which can be applied and used in his life.

Aims of education

  • Soul perfection 
  • Learn about ourself
  • Physical, mental, spiritual development
  • Development of latent/ innate powers
Curriculum

  • All life is education 
  • Curriculum includes academic subjects, vocational training, cultural activities, arts, health education.

Methods of Teaching

  • Nothing can be taught and teacher is not an instructor or task master, he is a helper and guide.
  • Principle of teaching is to work from near to far, from known to unknown.
  • Learning by doing.
Discipline

  • Self discipline- there is no room for forced disciline.
  • He stated that we should provide free environment for the children, so that they can grow upto their fullest potential as per their interest, guidance can be provide time to time.
Teacher-Pupil Relationship

" Nothing can be taught and teacher is not an instructor or task master, he is a helper and guider. His duty is to suggest not to impose”

Student is the centre of the education process and everychild has his own inherent interest and abilities, so it is the duty of a teacher to focus on the needs and demands of each and every student.

Teaching Practice Week - 1 For teaching practice I got the School named Govt High School Karikkakom. First day of my teaching practice is often filled with excitement, anticipation, and some nervousness. The first day is an essential milestone in teaching practice. It may feel challenging, but it’s also a stepping stone towards becoming a confident and capable educator. Our teaching started from 21st August 2024. On the first day, I have taken 7th period at class 8. As I entered the class the students greeted me. Students are more curious to know about me. I introduced myself briefly, trying to keep it light and relatable. To break the ice, I asked everyone to share their name and place. This small activity eased the atmosphere and helped me learn a bit about each student. On the first day I introduced the chapter named " From a Railway Carriage". At first, I could feel my heart racing, but as I started interacting, my nerves settled. I realized that my preparation was paying...
