Gone are the days when Indian study system was value based and the education hub even during the Buddha when Takshila, was the major educational hub in the Asian continent. Students from as far as China use to come for the education and other related studies.
Also, the Chinese Traveller, like Huen Tsang, who has developed a traveler lifestyle along with describing the story of the Kings and the Kingdom has put a great light on the lives of the people during that period.
Now, talking about the current education system where it is based on 10+2+3 and further, more students who are into the education from the cities are unable to convert their studies into jobs. There have been instances where people are remaining unemployed after their studies. Although the Government is confident about the economic growth of 7.2% it seems a task which looks good on paper but reasonably it seems a distant dream.
When we see the deterioration of the school and the college system where much of the knowledge is gained through lectures, one does not find the Teacher and Professor being sincere. Also, if one talks about the pupils they do not feel respectful towards the teachers and the school fraternity.
In many cases, one must have heard that the Teacher become full of grudge and sometimes try to take advantage of the students from both the sexes. They try to exploit the innocence of the students and sometimes beat them black and blues.
The society also does not resort to that and further the student who keeps mum on such behavior from the end of school authority faces a lot of problem in their life at every level. Thankfully, with my schooling under a Convent School with a Catholic background, and most of the teachers from South India, it helped me to develop a confident approach towards life.
Although, the education system in India which has the same approach of 10+2+3, do not give us an edge as compared to the World Education. With, my travel to Singapore and Cambodia, and visiting the Singapore Management University Campus, along with many Billboards of Private College has given me the understanding that there is more of a practical approach in the education. The same stands for Cambodia where the college based education system is merged with schooling.
The school to the college education system has a lot of vocational programmes in it and also for every study there is more of practical studies. A person has to give a lot of projects along with assignments in studies. The compulsory military training makes them a citizen of repute and also lead to the three factors of Health, Happiness, and Height ( Glory) which gives them success in their respective field of work.
If we compare the education system in abroad we find that they can take a substantial amount of gap, earn on their own and then get to the work based education system of their choice. In India, it is the just opposite where a person has to stick to the regular 15 years of study. With, the only aim of passing out from School and Colleges, with the help of political unions like ABVP and NSUI in the Government Colleges, the study has just become a formality.
These students neither become a worthy student nor a citizen of repute. Whether it is the education or medicine field or any other related studies they naturally turn out to be a dud. Thus, it leads to an uneven competition and flattery along with incompetence work atmosphere creates an issue of distrust among the colleagues.
It further leads to a grouping where most of the people who are from the lesser known work ethics try to get into a union and thus hamper the growth of the brilliant ones. Also, the good one who understands the value of work and goes for reputation in the job further gets humiliated at every step, as they become the good citizen in the eyes of an educated person.
If we go through recent news articles one could see that pupils from villages have invented different tools and also machines which turn out to be the best for the society. Our Government should encourage such endeavors and give them enough opportunity, to come up with their inventions. The tools which they are developing which are generally found useful should be patented and then mass production should be done to give them encouragement and further it should become a source of livelihood.
One has to understand that today education is not confined to textbooks but a practical approach and little bit of understanding about the surroundings can give the students an "Idea that can change their life".
