Education system

Education system

Here the system means different ways to impart the way in which students can gain the knowledge and make them aware of the facts and make use of that factual knowledge in their life, future developments. Many countries follow different patterns to do the latter for their own interests which actually shouldn't be.

In our country we say State syllabus, CBSE (Central Board of Secondary education), ICSE (Indian Certificate for Secondary Education), IB ( International Baccalaureate).

Each has its own way according to the standards of the recipients. People often compare these systems and say particular system is easier than the other, some say some are very poor and they go on. But I wonder how in the world these are comparable. They are not actually different, every system's goal is to impart the knowledge.

Okay, lets go to the primary education. This helps children to understand the language and write it. Well it teaches about their surroundings and the society. In secondary education, students have to start using their grey matter and system imparts factual knowledge into them. We can say that it shows them or moreover helps them to see the the path of their interest and gives a brief account of the facts and the history regarding. In professional courses it's just gaining the knowledge to improve ourselves.



This seems all perfect! But we do hear a term called Practical education. What is this practical education? Isn't education itself is learning from experiences and surroundings?

Yes it is, but see the now world which is full of competition. we can say that it is a competitive- corporate world (Competitive is a world with a broad meaning). Now getting a job for a student has become definition for success. Not only for the mere student , even for entire society. This blocks innovation, out of box thinking. So obviously schools also have become a place for business and to run a good business you should attract your clients with your products. So the school must rise in its rank and in turn get more income. SO for the latter to happen the school authorities should that they are the best in providing education.

How can this be done? How will an institution show that it is the best? Here comes the ranks, institutions concentrate on imparting such factual knowledge that a student can paste that in their examinations. The examination board being unchanged gave the institutions more scope to harvest ranks just by imparting factual knowledge. Because of this students lack logical thinking, ability to reason, creativity. They stop to stand out from the crowd and start becoming part of the crowd.

Here came the rise of the importance of practical education. Practicality helps students to work on the factual knowledge and bring out advanced facts. 

If we talk in a technical manner, then facts are nothing but results derived from the experiments. But education id acquiring knowledge regarding the experiments. These results are important because to stop future generations to repeat the same mistakes and not to waste their time but rather combine these results and experiments and dig more into the science. 

Practical education is nothing but the original meaning of the education. For today's generation i would say that it is the application of the book acquired knowledge on tour daily life.

Books have created a base, now stand on that and construct magnificent structure of knowledge.

Prime minister and the expectations

Prime minister and the expectations On Aug 15, 2014 Shree Narender Modi, prime minister of India was a different person and now exactly after one year i.e., on Aug 15, 2015 he is a different person again. This is stated by people all over the country. An article tiled "From outsider to insider" published in Times of India says that the law of diminishing marginal utility has set in. But don't think it is actually law of ascending marginal utility? People started to expect more year by year. Lets say from 2014-15, there are significant changes in the way government operates and people have begun to think, there is a swift shift in the prioritizes of the government from just fulfilling needs to development. So people began to expect more and immediate changes which are not exactly possible. I t is irony that people expect overnight change, want immediate comforts rather than aiming for development which serves greater good. Le...

Arab world instability

It all started in 18th century, where whole world was full of fiefdoms and serfdoms (with some exceptions). Europe rose in its military technology and their thirst for capitalist power has made them to conquer the whole world and establish their imperialism. For the luxury of few, they have exploited many as if it was a legitimate thing to do. The want for economic and political supremacy made European nations to fight against each other which culminated with world wars. These wars resulted in the emergence of new nation-states, which actually should have carved through Woodrow Wilson's 14 point theory but ironically not. Along with this the decolonization has sculptured countries with disputed borders. There formed countries with true reasons and strong leadership and some without reasons and ineffective leadership. The best example is the south Asia where partisan of Pakistan was totally unnecessary if it was not for the idiotic Islamic groups. Even the breaking of ottoman emp...

Urbanisation in Medieval Europe

Urbanization – Medieval Europe The growth of trade and commerce in the medieval Europe has given birth to the urbanization which lead to the growth of towns and cities. Urbanization is nothing but growing cities with luxury and the latter can be linked to the then play of politics with city centers as core. Dukes and kings used to show off their wealth in public with the help of city states, to gain their trust and to ambassadors to make them sure about their alliances. This attitude is not only restricted to the kings but to the other elite class of the society. With the growth of cities feudal lords of country side have decided to make their presence felt by constructing residences in the cities. This lead to the growth of architecture in the towns and cities and huge allocation of funds for the construction is seen in the medieval Europe. Coming to the city planning, They were constructed with an architect plan with the roads cutting at 90 degrees and the markets placed al...
