Confusing role of a teacher

The confusion is: Should teachers transmit their knowledge using the authority of their expertise, or should they simply “accompany” learners on their journey through learning?

It is more confusing to whether a school be organized as disciplinary institution where learning implies teaching

or as a resource bank where learning alone matters?

It is still more confusing when we consider, Is it possible to learn without being taught? Must we choose between instruction and learning? Are teachers and instructions obstacles to free learner?

Loin de toutes les contraintes le rôle idéal de l’enseignant et d’apprendre à l’apprenant à apprendre

It depends on the resources and self-learning should be encouraged as this would lead to life-long learning.
