Psychology of Education

Education is a particular element of the relation between individual and society. It covers the content and the form of social relationships, as explanatory factors of the evolution of personality gradually develop and expand. The perception on reality, children’s behaviour, their parents’ requirements, the labels civilization puts on certain data, on certain facts or events mark the way we educate ourselves and our children. The need to know the psychology of the pupil / student is a major part of every teacher’s agenda. The teacher must get to know his student in order to form an image about his personality. Psychologically, the student’s personality is an essential factor in what concerns his school performance and success. Thus, the teacher must be the fervent and passionate disciple that contaminates his students with enthusiasm, guiding them towards the good path. „Like the iron that cannot be forged until you melt it with heat, neither the souls of the people can be cultivated without the warm of your feelings” (Nicolae Iorga)
