This article is a extract of an interview with Dr.Ch.Nirmala, a lecturer in Psychology at the St.Ann's college of Education, Sec'bad. She shared with us some vital facets on - Teacher's contribution to the society . The following are the extracts :
- How can a teacher help eradicate illiteracy from the society ?
- I would take my students to the community and encourage them to teach for free to those who are deprived of education.
- Other than imparting knowledge, what according to you is the most important duty of a teacher ?
- I think that a teacher can be an effective counselor . Hence she should also play the role of a counselor and a guide for her students.
- How can a teacher influence her student's behavior towards the deprived in the society ?
- A teacher can encourage them to work together for the deprived. To achieve this, she may see that they visit the home for the deprived such as the home for handicapped, old age homes , etc .
- How can a teacher help imbibe the qualities of democratic citizens within her students ?
- The teacher is considered to be the role model to her/his students . Therefore it is important that the teacher herself depicts the traits of a democratic citizen. At the same time she can tell the students the importance of being democratic in nature. She must teach the students to respect one's opinions, ideas and ideologies.
