The education system needs serious reforms

Yes, Our Education system does need reforms.

We basically should focus on providing practical knowledge to students from the very basic level of schooling to make kids aware of the need of the things being taught.

But, in our schools, we are only concerned about the grades and marks a child scores completely ignoring their imaginative minds. Pressuring a child to score more for better college, for better job results only in cramming things up.

Limited to only textbooks for the information and not to question what is being taught is another hurdle.

We also need teachers who inspire and encourage their students to think out of the box for every problem they face be it a book problem or in real life. And not just stick to old traditional methods referred in books from decades.

A huge amount of fee charged by private institutions is a reason why many deserving students are deprived of better facilities due to economic factors.

Our Government should consider making books, uniforms and other stationery free to children from economically backwards classes thus disregarding the concept of Caste and Reservation. This is how I think we would really get the concept of Equity established in India.

We do need the introduction of technology in our education system.

But, we should not forget that Indian Doctors, engineers, teachers and all are very much praised in all over the world. The serious efforts put by aspirants of UPSC, CAT, CA, and for other PSUs jobs calls for applaud considering the level toughness being faced by aspirants. India accounts for around 40% of avid readers from all over the world. Our system does focus on getting the concepts and basics clear resulting in better understanding of the topic as well.

So, yes we do need reforms at some places but we can not just disregard our education system wholly.

I think the reservation have to remove judge all according to marks ya if they passed exam fairly then gave scholarship and waiving their fees not reserved the seats because for that some talented and hard working students are not getting the chance and it not necessary that all lower cast are in a poverty line according to their income.

Hi Friends,

According to me, today's education is only for scoring marks. There is no knowledge of the subject. Students are focused on getting marks only.

Education system should change for 50% theory and 50% practical classes. Then only students have much more interest to do something innovative.

Thanks.

Hi. Friends.

In my point of view, education is must reform the process of studying and teaching techniques many numbers of studying only to mug up and get the highest score how they are doing in practical they are nothing to do.

In our education 70% theory 30% practical in my opinion it will definately change the system of teaching students.

We all agree with this opinion.

Hello every one,

In my point of view, education system should change, nowadays theoretical 80% and practical 20% so students are just focusing get mark and for gaining knowledge theoretical and practical should be 50-50%.

And teaching method should improve.

Hi, I am Prabisha. I would like to tell that Indian education is providing a free and compulsory education till the age of 14.

And in my view, in ancient India Gurukula System was existed which provides more cultural and ethical values along with the education.

For E.G: Before colonisation of India Britain had failed many attempts to conquer India, finally they found out the root of their failure- they found out that India's culture back then was strong enough which they maintain through their education system. And then Britain could conquer India by convincing that their education is better than ours by destroying the Indian education.

Thank you.

Hi friends, according to me, the educational system should be in a 90 percent practical class it will better and one of the easiest way to understand and students were come out from mugging the theoretical classes.

Hey, guys! I almost read 20 to 25 comments above and everyone has expressed their perception towards Indian education system. I understand how it feels. And also I found common points that most of us are trying to say that our Indian education is outdated and about unqualified faculties and also parents compulsion to choose a particular and many more. But let us think for a minute how many of us are really looking for a happiness in life instead of only money making mind. Most of us choose either Engineering or medicine or try for some govt jobs, only to earn money and settle in life. But we don't follow our passion or our area of interest. In our country, we have plenty of options to choose but we are failed to know about that courses, we don't know them. Of course I'm with you guys that our education system needs a change on how to teach students effectively and how to make students to identify their interest and passion. One of our friend above has commented that she is still trying to identify her passion and she is going to start up some career guidance institute, that's good. She can make our younger generation to follow their passion.

How many of us know that we have a stream for dance, performing arts, vocal and many more streams which we always use to think as hobby, instead it's a career for us if we are best at it.

In my point of view education system should try to teach students from classes 1 to 6 about all basics and options for the students to choose their area of interest and teachers should be able to identify the interest and strengths of the student. Parents need to accept their child's interest and allow them to excellence in that field, instead of stopping them. Most of all students need to understand and love what they study. Not for mark's sake. But for enriching them with happenings around and their knowledge.

Even I'm still trying to find what am I good at? I hope before I die I will find it and Once I find I'm sure I'll be the happiest person in the world. Follow your dreams and passion guys, not money. Thanks.

Also one more thing to add the admission process should be based completely on marks not on reservation got to scheduled caste because it will be bad for student doing hard work but getting no admission.

In foreign country, there is flexibility of subjects but in India we don't have so many options also our education is not updated ones it is not practical. There should be English medium only and more extra curricular activities and teachers do play imp role as well.
