Need to improve our education system! - 31-Jul-2015

Font Size :

Few years ago anyone who had completed professional studies such as Engineering or Medicine were considered elite class of people as they exhibited lot of good qualities like patience, ability to foresee the future and act and highly polite.

But, now, it is understood that the elite educated people are the ones who violate rules or commit crimes. Education that is supposed to bring out good human beings is now bringing out mechanical beings that earns money, which seem to be the biggest headache of today.    

Much more beyond this is that, education, instead of building human values; it has drawn a line between people making understanding difficult.    It has pushed us all deep into a vicious web called EGO. It is sad and a foolish thing that even members of the same family are caught up in this vicious cycle apart from other individuals.

Today, we are only bothered about the marks scored in exams, but no one is worried about whether the same education is providing the right thinking to an individual or is it useful to mold us into good human beings.   

Little long ago, if someone asks What is the name of your teacher? The students would not even tell his or her name, but rather, refer them to the street they came from or the village they came from. Such was respect that they were given and that they commended from students too. Also, they were only few teachers in those days.   

Recently, I asked a student who was returning from school, How does your mathmetics teacher teach? To my dismay, he gave me a reluctant and cold answer, I am not bothered about the class. I will complete all the work in tuition.  Who will listen to all these things in the class? Every day, my teacher comes with a flashy make-up. I only watch her.

I was taken aback by the answer that the boy gave me.With deep sigh, I lamented about the destiny where our education system was leading us.
