The document discusses the role of teachers in facilitating student growth and development. It states that students should be given positive training in self-direction and self-control under a teacher's supervision. Strict control and prescription of conduct without allowing for self-control is not conducive to student mental health and adjustment. Teachers should provide proper guidance and apply principles of autonomy judiciously to help students smoothly pass through developmental periods. Social facilitation also occurs when a student's performance improves in the presence of others like teachers during certain tasks.

behavior adaptation.
Munn
“To learn is to modify behavior and
experience.
M.L. Bigge
“Learning may be considered as change in
insights, behavior, perception, motivation or a
