Abstract

A few years ago a graduate student of mine constructed a scenario of an "oppressed" school in which the human relations components of a school were highlighted. Examples of this school were identified by a variety of verbal and written communications between administrators, teachers and students. If the illustrations were not so painfully consistent with what actually occurs in the daily life of the school, they would be humorous and entertaining. They were neither humorous or entertaining. Students, teachers and administrators often create situations which demoralize or destroy the self-esteem of its participants. Education to create maximum individual learning for each student during their academic life, should teach the concept that learning can be enjoyable and possibly even fun. For example, students who enjoy reading find reading a valuable life time experience. To those who found reading a painful experience, reading ceases as a pastime. A focus of education should be to develop in students a love for learning (Krumboltz, 1988).
