We must give people the chance to change.

About This Quote

In the context of education, the use of the word “must” is a bit misleading. It suggests that if we do not make people comply to our wishes, they will fail. In reality, there are many ways in which a teacher can motivate a student to learn a particular subject. For example, a teacher can assign a student a project that is due at the end of class and post it in the classroom for students to see.

Or, a teacher could set up a group project where students must complete a certain number of assignments before they can move on to the next group. Asking them to “give people the chance to change” suggests that it is an absolute requirement that people change.
