Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The North Carolina Teacher We autocrats of the school-room should each keep a skull upon the magisterial desk as a reminder of our own mortality. Teachers, look well to your own conduct, whether consciously or not, you are influencing the future generation for weal or for woe. You cannot shirk the responsibility, you cannot plead innocent when the final day of reckoning comes, when you must "give an account of the deeds done in the body." Be you saint or sinner, you will be brought to account. Parents have put upon you a very serious and solemn responsibility. Whether the parent be Christian or Mohammedan, Jew, Gentile or Pagan, it matters not. Whether they be Atheists or Polytheists, it matters not. You must influence the pupils for good and not for evil. You must so conduct yourselves that your pupils will feel that to act dishonorably or falsely wall incur your displeasure. Under all circumstances "be just and fear not." Your every act and word is weighed and has an effect little dreamed of by the careless teacher. Though frequently guilty of acts of injustice and cruelty among themselves, school-boys are quick to note the same in their intercourse with you, and on no account will they consider it just to be treated by you as they treat fellow-pupils. They look upon you as a superior being, and expect mercy whenever they are brought to trial. However intellectual you may be, however learned and wise in text-books, however gifted in language or mathematics, your influence for good upon your pupils may all be lost if you do not know how to manage cases of discipline. Whether you have the feeling in your heart or not, no child should ever learn the dreadful truth that his teacher hates him. There are many avenues to the human heart. Seek for them. Try not to close the door of approach, but try to open it. Kindness is the key. Open the door, enter in and take possession, and make the last state of that boy better than the first.
