Education Beyond the Classroom

MASUM BILLAH



Education imparted only in the classroom may not help the learners to deal with complex problems which appear in the real life. When education takes place both in the classroom and beyond it gives the learners real opportunities to face the challenges of life pragmatically. In American schools and colleges a program named ‘Service Learning’ has been in vogue since the time of Abraham Lincoln in 1862. This service Learning is based on three theories. Firstly, pay back motivation. As the students read in the schools and colleges run by the state or community, they must have some responsibilities towards them. It is an opportunity for the students to give service to the society directly. Secondly it gives philanthropic motivation. Students clean the road, offices, surrounding environment and make the less conscious people aware of political and social responsibilities and they get self-satisfaction through these services. Thirdly, it reflects perfection of knowledge. Only bookish knowledge cannot give perfection to the students until and unless they learn something practically from the known society and surrounding environment. It helps them learn the society and people. Students learn leadership quality and the spirit of leadership quality and team-work is developed among them.
