ENGLISH Pea FOREIGN LANGUAGE Morgan • GUID jlCE Abbott LIBRARY We believe that the teacher is the key to the door of knowledge. He is the designer, director. and coordinator of the learning environment. It follows then that teacher preparation should inculcate the realization that it is the teacher's responsibility to motivate the student to desire the skills and knowledge necessary to be successful in a learning situation. Therefore, the burden of proof rests with the teacher to work out ways, experiences. and discussions that will build bridges from the things that do seem significant to students, to the things that teachers know that the students actually will need to know and be able to do. It is the teacher's added responsibility to provide a variety of learning methods and activities so that each student can learn and succeed to the limit of his ability and desire. 22
