“If education is always to be conceived along the same antiquated lines of a mere transmission of knowledge, there is little to be hoped from it in the bettering of man's future.”
— Maria Montessori
Simplified Meaning:
If we keep teaching people the same old way, just giving them facts to remember, we can't expect much improvement in society. Imagine trying to fix a broken car with tools and methods from 50 years ago—it won’t work well because cars have changed. In the same way, education needs to evolve to match our changing world. This means not just giving information, but teaching people how to think, solve problems, and be creative. For example, instead of just learning historical dates, students should understand why those events happened and how they affect the present. By doing this, we help people become better thinkers and problem-solvers, making a positive impact on the future.
