“Intellectual growth should commence
at birth and cease only at death.” (Albert Einstein)
15. Knowing is a process, not a product
“To instruct someone ... is not a matter of getting him to
commit results to mind. Rather, it is to teach him to
participate in the process that makes possible the
establishment of knowledge. We teach a subject not to
produce little living libraries on that subject, but rather to get
a student to think mathematically for himself, to consider
matters as an historian does, to take part in the process of
knowledge-getting. Knowing is a process not a product.”
(Bruner, 1966)
