the pupil... has to be put into action

Teaching, No Greater Call: The role of a gospel teacher is ‘to help individuals take responsibility for learning the gospel—to awaken in them the desire to study, understand, and live the gospel and to show them how to do so. … The learning has to be done by the pupil. Therefore it is the pupil who has to be put into action.
