Being a student, every student will say that they hate their syllabus, and why would they not hate it? Is there any need for a written exam for the subject like personal training and e.v.s ? don’t not EVS and PT mean just physical development and common knowledge about nature and surrounding?
Next talking about maths, on an avegare, a common man uses basic math like addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication. Then what is the use of learning all those formulas, theorems and solve all those problems who gives you not only stress but also results in students failing and then loosing hope that they can do something good in life. Why cant they keep some special subjects related to different profession like doctor, engineer, lawyer etc etc. so that, if a student wants to become a lawyer, he will choose the subjects which will actually help him to get through his dream, same will go for the doctors and other profession. I know this has loop holes, like the student going for lawyer will know just about his profession and will have no idea about other basic knowledge, well what is if I say that, let there be normal education till std 7th so that every student will get equal education and knowledge, then from 8th onwards people are quie smart enough to decide what they want to be so they can follow their dream. Let the students choose what they want to do. There is no use of studying the samething till graduation and then after that again take up a course of like years together and then get employed in your 30s with the lowest salary and then wait for the promotion. No doubt India is still going through the unemployment phase, and major portion of the population is soo dependent.
Ur thought is meaningful to some extent... We do study a lot unnecessary thing in school... But it becomes unnecessary only after we join a profession...
ReplyDeleteTheorems & formulas seems to be of no use to you... but it helps an engineer a lot in his profession...
It cannot be made the school study profession specific... I believe that the age at which one can make a definite decision about the profession cannot be fiund out.. it just varies dear...
If you ask me, I wud say that some subjects like politics, entrepreneurship, social responsibility and some basic laws should be taught to the children at the school level itself...
