Study on Personality Development of Secondary School Students

Education is taken as a wider sense. It has broad meaning. The concept of education is like a diamond which appears to be of a different colour (nature) when seen from different angles. It is therefore not easy to define it in a single term. Many educationists, philosophers and thinkers have made their efforts to define education in their own words. From the view point of Indian consideration Philosophers and thinkers from Yajnavalkya (about 600 BC) to Gandhi (1869 – 1948 AD) and from the view point of Western thinkers Socrates (469-399 BC) to Dewey (1859-1952) have defined education in accordance with their philosophy of life.
