Abstract:
This research demonstrates the significance of schooling and the position of an educator in training by comparing the educational frameworks of two distinct eras. Throughout the Vedic era, the educator was the guru, an individual who eradicates darkness from the lives of pupils, and schooling was more centred on values. In contemporary times, an educator functions as a facilitator, one who guides the journey of knowledge creation. Today, schooling is centred on outcomes. There is a significant philosophical shift that took place between these two eras.
This article examines in depth the student-teacher bond, core tenets of schooling, objectives, curriculum, instructional strategies, the position of the educator, student discipline frameworks, and the institutional setups of these eras. The research suggests that instructing was once a noble service but is currently regarded as a career path. As a service, instructing maintained an immediate tie with the actual world, and educators were honoured by all segments of civilization. When it transformed into one of many careers, it began to be viewed as a routine task to secure a livelihood. In brief, wisdom was once an element of power but is currently an economic tool. If schooling is intended to nurture a pupil’s talents to shape him/her into a balanced individual, then the purpose of schooling must be outlined in an unambiguous manner. Otherwise, in an intricate civilization, living will turn too complicated to gain the potential advantages of schooling.
