My short note on the problems with Indian Education system
Without any apprehension, I believe there are many flaws in Indian education system that can't be unheeded. To name few of them- Most of the students study for marks not for knowledge, Our narrow view on the career selection and in most cases it revolves around, Doctors, Engineers, Lawyers, CA and few others and we forget singers, artist etc. Further, transfer of parents dream to their children and there are many such flaws.
One of the biggest problem in our education system and society is that a failure in a subject or idea is treated as the failure of a person not the idea, which ceases the path of success for many. If this way of education system will continue then one day India will become the country of Clerks & we will be doing all the back office work for the foreign companies.
This is the right time to take a bold move to create a new education system where students will be innovating rather than just studying for survival.
However, without getting long on nagging over the Indian education system & society, let’s look what can be done to make our country's education system better:
1) Respect the failure- it is only the part of life, not life.
2) Career counselling should be accessible to all, not just for elite class children (as most of the underprivileged parents are unaware of it. Awareness should be spread- so that right career path will be chosen by the students.
3) Reservation in education should be removed, instead students of all the class and caste should be provided a single platform of study or training and let them fight on their merit.
To keep in short & conclude- Until we get equality in education, we won't have an equal society.
