Abstract

“The greatest contribution to education in the 20th century was made not by an educationist, but by a soldier who founded the scout movement”, says George Benard Shaw. The scout movement was started by Lord Baden Powell of Gillwell in 1907. Scouting is not only a training but a supplement to education. And it itself is an education, since it has the similar forms and process of education such as aim, objectives, curriculum, teaching-learning methods and so on. But generally, education means the school and collegiate education, which aims at mental, moral and physical development of the youngmen (boys) and women (girls). We teach systematically, sincerely and scientifically; but with all that, we find education in the doldrums. We hardly find the positive results of teaching or training of mind and character. More so, we find education that makes the boys good and useful citizens.
