Mysuru/Mysore: Teachers, apart from acting as Learning Facilitators, should also have to play as the agents of Nation-building in the contemporary context of India, said Dr. N.N. Prahallada, former Faculty, Regional Institute of Education (RIE), Mysuru, while addressing a group of Pre-University Principals and Teachers from Mandya District on the theme “Role of Teachers in Nation-building” at Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar Kalamandira in Mandya, organised by PU Teachers Association-Mandya District recently.
He called upon a group of 450 PU teachers and Principals to establish a harmonious relationship with the students to inculcate in them moral, aesthetic and intellectual personality. Teachers must act as democratic agents to promote in students a spirit of inquiry, critical thinking and critical pedagogy.
