Well,
talking about courage is a complex topic, and at the same time, it is important
as well. In the long run of dragging students from a lower class to higher
class; somewhere in between, we have seen students losing courage in their
lives.
Let us discuss, what is courage? Sounds something like
bravery. Well yes, it is bravery in a sort. But there is much more to explore
in it. Today, students seem to be too tensed, too pressurized regarding book
knowledge and results, that they show the least interest in other co-curricular
activities. Just suppose, if a student is informed to deliver a speech in the assembly, he gets so anxious about it, that the speech seems to be mission
impossible for him.
Now lets put an eye over some
initiatives that could be taken by teachers to motivate the students and make
them realize that there is no reason for hiding their weaknesses or feeling
inferior. Teachers should build trust among students and create an environment
where they don’t hesitate to share their problems and at the same time, the teacher
should help them get over it. Teachers should let students know that if they
make a mistake while taking a step forward towards something, then it's not
just a mistake, it's a lesson.
Just like every expert was once a learner. Courage can be built by motivating the students to participate in various activities keeping in mind the strength, not the weakness.
