Summary
The aim of education is to realize the innate qualities, potentials and talents of individuals and to develop these capacities latent in human nature to get personalsocial satisfaction and enrichment and progress of society. It is the fundamental premises that the young generation should take up the responsibility of their own development and for the nation by participating in the adventure of exploring and understanding their own creativity and intelligence through the process of education. Great tragedy here is the system of imparting formal education, under the four walls of a class room setting, through literature, lecture and library, putting no effort to make individual human being realize their creativity and potential, is more concerned with immediate need satisfaction rather than materializing the long term cherished dreams of a nation. In the systematic process of building a new world order, their role becomes limited and far away from strategic thinking, creative decision-making and advancement of a civilization
