We feel education is toward growth of the individual throughout his/her lifetime because we believe that lifelong learning is essential in order for an individual to have a happy and fruitful life. We deem that the goal of education is to foster the intellect of students by teaching cognitive and critical thinking skills that enable the individual to be a life-long learner. We also facilitate student learning and development of problem solving skills. In this sense, we believe this practically prepares students for the future, as well as helps them foster positive values and a sense of civic efficacy. This relates directly to the goal of behavior modification in order to promote good citizenship.
Throughout this process of teaching students, we discern it necessary to engage and foster students’ curiosity and creativity, both of which are critical skills in life and in problem solving. Lastly, students’ success is also dependent on their development of basic communication skills. Without these key factors, the other educational goals cannot be fully achieved. |
