Change in approach to education in India over the years
The education system in India has gone through an unbelievable change. From
the gurukul system to online classes, we have decided on a long journey.
Education in India has been one of a kind since the ancient days. Vedic teaching,
which was one of the first institutions on the planet, was based on a Gurukul
system of learning.
The major portion of our literature comes from that period which is indeed a
heritage. In a Gurukul System, the students imbibed knowledge of basic subjects
such as Maths, Science, Medicine, Astrology, etc. orally, while the students stayed
with their gurus. Later times saw the emergence of early textbooks written on
palm leaves with sharp objects.
For higher education, the students needed to travel to other countries. It was only
during the Buddhist period that Nalanda and Taxila University came into being.
India has been the golden bird that has been conquered and annexed several
times and the top CBSE Schools in Ahmedabadfeature the history recorded in
their course books. With the change in colonial power, came a change in the
method of education.
The British Raj came with the wave of western education in the country, and the
use of the English language expanded. Christian missionaries were set up, and
English was used up as an official language making it known to most of the
Indians. One of the remarkable features of western education was that they gave
importance to women's education too. This gave rise to several rational thinkers
who came out of the thought of patriarchal control over education. CBSE Schools
in Ahmedabad has a similar approach to curb misogyny.
After achieving Independence, the leaders of the country hosted several socialist
programs to improve the conditions of the poor by providing them with proper
education and training facilities.Government-based schools and colleges were set
up so that citizens could get proper and quality education. Private institutions also
came into being that set a benchmark for education in the country.
The recent decades have also seen several changes in the way of imparting
knowledge. Below, we have discussed some of them—
● Grading System- The grading system in schools compared to the post-
colonial rule in recent years has changed a lot. Answers have become more
specific and teachers only find the keywords in the student's answer. This
enables the teacher to know that the student well knows the matter he/she
has been asked to write about.
● Variety in Subjects- Recently, the schools have introduced a variety of
subjects other than the traditional ones, that are more career specific.
Thetop 10 CBSESchools in Ahmedabad encourage their students to go for
every stream or subject they like, which has improved theirresults of them
too. Students get to learn subjects like Home Science, Fashion Designing,
Horticulture, etc. as per their interests. They no longer need to struggle or
get stressed about learning a subject they don't like.
● Extra-Curricular Activities- A healthy body paves way for a healthy mind.
Any student needs to stay fit and give some of their time for physical
exercises that enhance their growth, both physically and mentally. Schools
and Universities nowadays, give equal importance to sports and other
curricular activities alongside studies and encourage their students to take
part in them. The top 5 CBSE Schools in Ahmedabad create ample chances
for their students to take part in what they love. Now the students can
balance their work and have a fun time while doing their hobbies too.
● Importance to the Education of the Girl Child- India since Independence
has realized the importance of educating a girl child. It is said that
'Educating a woman means educating the whole family'. Today the
centuries-old traditions have been broken. The Government keeping aside
the discrimination of gender binaries made it compulsory for every child to
study at the age of 14. Today women are getting equal opportunities in the
workplace, be it teaching, in medical fields, in defense, or administrative
jobs, they have kept no field untouched.
Conclusion
The importance of imparting knowledge has been well realized by Indian Leaders
almost a century ago. This has made the government invest a huge amount of
money in the education of the progenies. To make the process more beneficial,
there are constant changes in the process of imparting knowledge. Although
there is no doubt that we have evolved a lot, there is much more to change in the
system because 'Change is the only Constant'.
