components must be so organically integrated with one another as to give rise to what is known as the WHOLE MAN. He will be a balanced self-contained person who will be competent to function in workaday life highly productively and satisfactorily. Such a person, then, plays his various roles to the satisfaction of himself as well as of the society. This is what Shakespeare indicated in his famous lines as under:
All the world is a stage,
And all the men and women merely players,
They have their exits and entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts.
Education must equip every learner with capacities, skills, abilities and world view to act his designated part well. Only a solidly synergized person would be capable of playing such challenging role.
Similarly, the social domain which includes the family, community, neighbourhood, friends, and umpteen number of socio-cultural bodies, formal and nonformal, is to be internally woven in a web with all parts harmonized I through intricate weaving .Externally, the social domain has to be synergized with the two other domains, namely individual and global, into in an intricate maze..
The global environmental domain, in which the individual lives and his social domain get inhered in, is a much complex entity. It too will have to develop intra synergy as well as inter synergy with the other two domains. Obviously, the hub of the triple web is the individual, the chief player on the stage of life. Education, therefore, will have to focus its impact on him and through him on the social and global domains. Realizing and sustaining this triple synergy is, thus, a unique and intricately artistic function of modern education.
The Process of Synergisation: The structure of modern education as an enterprise as well as a transformative process thus consists of three layers, namely, the individual learner, his society and the global environment, in which both operate. As stated earlier, each operates at two levels. One, it operates solo as an entity by itself in which capacity it must develop and sustain its intra synergy. It should. for example, maintain its own health, vigour, capability and sustainability. Two, it should develop interrelationship, interplay and interdependence with the other two layers. Such perfect inter and intra compatibility should be continually developed and sustained for the educational investment to be maximally productive.
To ensure such multilayer functioning, specific educational inputs will be
