摘要：This essay argues that modesty in pedagogical practice is necessary. This term—modesty—is used to describe an orientation towards educational knowledge that sees pedagogues, in all contexts and arenas, as necessarily acknowledging their ignorance in regards to education. No matter the profundity of their educational experience, educators must approach each teaching situation humbly—as supplicants and as devotees might a sacred place; the acknowledgement of any knowledge is assumptive and presumptive.
