“Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid”.- Albert Einstein
Growth in GDP, Education, Nuclear Energy, Military Power, Employment Opportunity etc. But most importantly education, because all things are connected to it. Many developed countries like the U.S.A, China, Japan, Germany, UK, France etc, are following the rules like “Education means learning and the way of life”. But in India here we follow “Education means business”. Because most of the Indian Institute and colleges charges lakh of rupees as fees, but this is not a real problem that students are facing, but the actual problem is that they are not providing the quality of education which means practical knowledge.
200 years ago, when Britishers came to India with their corporation, “East India Company” to do agricultural business in India. So they made three kinds of job opportunity, clerk for maintaining the company's document and record and guards for the protection of the company and worker who will work in the company. For the training of their employees, they made a system that we Indians are still following as an education system.
I know many of our Indian scientists are working in ISRO and DRDO and more advanced agency and company and they had also studied from the same system because they were curious and had understood their hidden traits very early, and also they had done something special and little different from our system. But many students have to follow this system because of society and mainly for parents pressure.
Many reports show that Indian students have a lack of subject interest because in our system there is 90℅ of theoretical knowledge. Parents with high expectations for their children take a heavy educational loan in the thought that once their children will start earning, then they can pay their loan, but because of a lack of practical knowledge, most of the companies are not ready to hire them, and thus the families are not able to pay the loan.
One more problem is in our system is that they are focusing on marks, not on knowledge and skills, therefore many students take the stress and many of them had done suicide, but they need to know that marks are not important as they think. Many American companies like Tesla, Microsoft, Facebook, SpaceX and Google also has said that in future, they will hire employees based on skills and knowledge not based on marks.
But in 2020 government have adopted a new education policy, but we have to wait until they implement it and also to see that how effective it is.
I hope, today you have learned something new through my article.
Stay home stay safe!
Thank you.
