This is a proverb which means that unless you teach someone how to do something, they will not learn how to do it. If you don't show a man how to catch fish, he will stay hungry. most people need to be shown how to do something, that way they can practice and remember.

The meaning is a bit like this proverb: "Show me and I will forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I will understand". It has multiple meanings depending on what angle you look at it but I view it as "The easiest option isn't always the best".
