Abstract
Learning is a continuous journey. This thought is
as old as Confucius (551-479BCE) who felt that
success in life is linked to learning, which should
be instilled in childhood. The Buddhist “Vinay”,
and in Islam, madrasa, both refer to a physical
space where religious and philosophical
discussion can take place. Plato’s “Academy”
was perhaps the first school, or his most famous
student, Aristotle’s “Lyceum” where the wealthy
menfolk would gather to discuss philosophy,
politics and learn from each other’s views. As
time passed on society needed different kinds of
workers.
