Adams believed that there is a definite though variable relation between the educator and the educand Adamson, on the other hand established a direct relation between the educand and his environment in rich the educator is an external factor.

In the words of Adamson, “we now come to a point of fundamental importance. It is the position and function of the teacher in relation to his business of adjustment which we take to be the any room and essence of education. In the process itself there goes not seem to be any room for him. On the other hand, there is the individual and the other three worlds, and in the miracle of experience they, the subjective and objective, have become one; while justment is but the elaboration and extensive of this unity. The whole business is between the individual and his world, and the teacher is outside it, external to it.”
