RE-ENGINEERING THE EDUCATION SYSTEM:

 In some of the countries there is no appreciable change as required in the education system. In most of the educational institutions traditional way of chalk and talk system is followed while there are other modern ways. Teaching method must be changed for overall development of the society. We should not tow the out dated system which stultifies students to crammers and pen pushers.
Functional literacy is must for the turned out products of the schools, colleges and universities. Irrelevant education wounds the education itself. The examination system is such that the students mug up and vomit out the material read by them. Out dated system, untrained and less paid teachers may cause the students to lose the interest in studies. The seats are purchased by some of the parents for their wards under various quotas which prove to be a well fertilized land for corruption. We forget that the student afterward shall sieve out the money and the vicious cycle goes on.
Corruption, politicization, communalization and favoritism, must be kept away from the education system. The courses must be developed in a way that the skills provided to the students must boost the economy of the nation and provide them employment. The educational institutions must not feel themselves lame due to lack of funds allocated to them by the Government.
