My Educational Philosophy |
"A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, The really bright student, the eager questioner, the probing searcher, especially if he is brighter than his teacher, is too often seen as a "wise guy," a threat to discipline, a challenger of his teacher's authority. ~ Abraham Maslow, Toward a Psychology of Being, p. 74 The overt behavior may be very similar, but the motivations may be extremely different. ~ Abraham Maslow, Toward a Psychology of Being, p. 76 A safety-philosophy or religion or science is more apt to be blind than a growth-philosophy, religion or science. ~ Abraham Maslow, Toward a Psychology of Being, p. 76 Most people experience both tragedy and joy in varying proportions. Any philosophy which leaves out either ccannot be considered to be comprehensive. ~ Abraham Maslow, Toward a Psychology of Being, p. 21 Much theorizing and naturalistic observing has to be done before worthwhile experiments are possible. The experimenter is the last member of a relay team. ~ Abraham Maslow, "Deficiency Motivation and Growth Motivation," Nebraska Symposium on Motivation, 1955
