Preparing for the new school year starts by waking up, and getting ready, to begin training.
We have to train to study. We have to train to learn. We have to train to teach.
This applies not just to those who are receiving learning, but also to those who are providing instruction. With proper training learners, and instructors, can develop the educational skills that are needed to succeed in school.
Training presents us with the opportunity to learn, and develop, skills at a rate that favors the growth of both the individual and the whole. It also allows us to commit, and carry out, mistakes and errors which can then be corrected, and repaired, prior to proceeding with further learning and evaluating.
Educational training can be looked at as having two distinct parts: The warm-up, and The practice. During warm-up we focus on stretching, and conditioning, educationally; where as practice is reserved for drills and simulations. Each of these steps can be applied to classroom instruction through a variety of methods which give the required flexibility needed to meet the requirements each classroom has to face. Training is a necessary stage in education which is well worth investing time in.
