The education system needs serious reforms

Hello.

According to me, our education system is not good because education system gets to be like machine. Every parent wanna to own child make be doc. And IAS and other be big person that we pressure on child. Every teacher won't be own school and college it take to rank on first position than they do prepare out and cheat in exam.

So this is unfaired. It is show condition of education in our country. It's not good because every child and every people take degree but no take knowledge. So I think it's not good.

I just wanted to add something more to the thought of educational reform and that is the need to change it. Being an Indian student I definitely know how much depressed a student becomes because of all this. I have friends who think like me.

Most of the times, students don't know what actually they have to become. Until 10th we all are in the fight mode where you all are told by your parents to compete with the students to get good marks. In the end what a child learns is to get good marks only. We need education for getting knowledge but this tendency to make education your life just eats me up because what people want from us is to get good marks only. For that, you definitely have to cram because teachers like studying the bookish material. Students I feel are becoming dumber with this education system because they are only following and India needs leaders, not followers. This CBSE authority is just nonsense according to me because they are stupid and most idiotic persons on this earth. Without knowing anything about education (because I feel they have not even passed nursery) they make most of the creative Indians crammers. In this country what you have to do is to become an engineer or a doctor and that too from an IIT or AIIMS according to respective fields. This system is just too old. A child needs to have given a mixture of fields that means history with chemistry and maths for instance.

Secondly, even after a person wants to become a doctor or an engineer the situation in India is as such that you can't make your dream into a reality because seats are limited and this growing population makes it even tougher. Our great prime minister is thinking of how to take control of black money but he should use his mind in creating infrastructure and more colleges because land is becoming used and needed for industries and housing purposes. No country can develop until students know what they are doing. I mean not even a single student has interest in studies. Most of them want to become engineer or doctor just because they don't want to become teachers I mean ending up studying M.Sc or B.Tech, etc.

And if this is what you call education then I can just laugh at this system because half of your working force is getting wasted because of less opportunities and less of creative fields. For becoming a doctor why the hell does a student require to study physics. I mean physics is related to math's and if you are telling someone to study maths even if you know that he or she is not interested in it then that is telling him or her to cram the material. That is a fact and this is how the serious brilliant minds are just getting wasted because of less concerned parties who don't give a damn about anything particularly the importance of education and the need to reform it but I can't even blame them because it is we who a have allowed them to do such things without even protesting once. I just want to say this one thing that we all are the future and it is high time that we have to tell those CBSE authorities to change this so-called education system. We have to do something. Please try and understand it I am not kidding. You might be thinking that I am being stupid but I need your support for going into this system and protesting against the authorities if you are with me then please reply because I don't want to be dumb. Keeping silence is just not worth it.

After reading many of the answers given here, I felt an urge to express my views on educational reforms. Literally speaking I don't think that what all is taught to the creative minds at school really defines knowledge. In reality, it's just a piece of writing until a student is able to understand it. Until class 10th none of the students try to understand some material but now they start understanding it because of boards. But the students who were understanding every bit of the knowledge given to them since the starting become frustrated because the repeated thought they get to hear that 10th is the base and you have to score well.

That student who understood everything comes to 11th selecting his subjects which he loves to study and that, for instance, is PCM that is non-med. He didn't know beyond that stuff (about competitions) that he loved studying these subjects. HE took these not to become an engineer rather he just wanted to study these for the sake of gaining knowledge. Also that he was interested in machines and he had started repairing them since he was 9! But the disappointment comes when he gets to know that what is left is just solving numerical. Another thing that comes to his mind is the frustration caused due to studies and getting good rank in coaching centers. He didn't get time now for repairing machines because his parents want him to become an engineer only. THEY have their own expectations of him.

The story doesn't end here. THE difference in class 10 and 11 studies makes him think of suicide and in the end he is murdered because of these CBSE authorities who don't actually know how to frame an education system where the difference between class 10 and 11 is huge where children don't know what they have to become ; where students just know how to get marks and not think about their study material.

That is the story of the majority of the students.

Nowadays many students are not going for their higher studies, the reason behind most of them is that they didn't get good education in the school. Reason for that is our system and our teachers. Most schools made the students to memorize. So they can't get the real education at all. The students are getting bored because of these mugging system. So percentage of higher studies in our country is reduced. Students should ask the question, not the teachers alone. Students should be encouraged by the teachers to ask questions.

Everything should be practical so that we get to know the real potential of the student, and if he's good on the subject then main focus should be paid to the particular subject only.

Instead of practical equipment in the four walls, the syllabus and the study material gradation shall be updated and given priority. The knowledge of fundamentals of advanced techniques cannot be at the mercy of quality teachers.

Yes, of course.

It must be reformed, sorry it must be changed. Just look when students go for home from school, they have been tired this is because they just got it, fully bored.

Classroom environment should be like that as if teacher teach tailoring, teacher should be responsible for training the student how he/she can be a fashion designer.

I am also supporting the topic that the education system in India needs reforms such as encouraging the use of smart boards.

Because with the means of smart board, we can visualize what we are learning. It is the best way of learning anything. Another reform should be that we should emphasize on smart work rather than hard work.

Yes, because the Indian education system is not practical. It's very serious matter. I hope India govt make it practical. Level of primary education is bad need to solve this problem.

Strange but true.

Our education system tests our memory and our intelligence.
