One of my all time favourite TED talks Nikola Tesla was isolated at his death. Would we consider his a success though with all his contributions to mankind?
I wish students see their self-worth beyond their grades. When we die, our obituaries will not list our grades. Instead we should be remembered as sons/daughters, fathers/mothers, brothers/sisters, friends, leaders/servants, contributors to society/communities/the world instead of merely being a statistical figure.
