Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now its really bad because everything weve done is de-humanizing education. Its destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship. – William Glasser
As long as acquiring knowledge is the educational goal of schools, educational opportunities will be limited, as they are now, to affluent families. – William Glasser
This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth. – William Glasser
If you improve education by teaching for competence, eliminating schooling, and connecting with students, the test scores will improve. – William Glasser
Education is the knowledge of how to use the whole of oneself. Many men use but one or two faculties out of the score with which they are endowed. A man is educated who knows how to make a tool of every faculty–how to open it, how to keep it sharp, and how to apply it to all practical purposes. – Henry Ward Beecher
