1) The current education system fails to properly develop students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. It focuses too heavily on rote learning and lacks practical application.
2) Traditional education had merits like ensuring careers benefited society and families, but transitioned poorly by not preserving these merits.
3) A new holistic education model is proposed that incorporates production, service, physical activity, personality development and entertainment to nurture all student development domains.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. Most of us get disturbed by what is going on in
the field of education. But we do not understand
the causes of the chaos and the remedy for them.
We will be benefited if we review in brief the
concept of education and merits and demerits of
the traditional education system in brief.
Education is defined in various ways but it can be
safely said to have three domains, which are as
follows.
The first domain is called AFFECTIVE
DOMAIN. This means the state of mind. In
simple words affective domain relates to how we
feel. Thus when our mind is full of alertness,
attention, enthusiasm, buoyancy, affection,
concern, joy, tolerance, self esteem, mutual
respect, mutual trust, commitment, dedication,
confidence, positive and victorious spirit, we
would call it healthy affective domain. In addition
the zeal and concentration needed in the pursuit
3. of excellence in intellectual field, tenacity and
endurance required in skillful activities and
patience and commitment essential for satisfying
and socially beneficial actions constitute affective
domain. The purpose of education is to nurture
this domain by designing suitable curricula and
syllabi.
The second domain of education is called
PSYCHOMOTOR DOMAIN. This implies
ability to appreciate skills and ability to perform
physical and mental skills, with speed, accuracy,
elegance, ease of performance etc. This may
involve appreciation and performance of skills
such as surgery, playing a musical instrument,
playing basket ball or doing carpentry! The
purpose of education is to nurture this domain
through not only designing suitable curricula,
syllabi but also by providing sufficient practical
and demonstration classes with all the necessary
equipment.
4. The third domain is called COGNITIVE
DOMAIN. Cognitive domain incorporates
accurate perspective, contemplation, correct
perception understanding, conceptualization,
analysis and recall of problems, ability to
evaluate, synthesize, correlate and make
decisions, appropriate policies, plans and
expertise in the management, administration, etc.
It is clear that all the domains have three
components viz. Cognition [Perception], affect
[Feelings] and conation [Response].
Let us consider the traditional system in a
dispassionate manner and scrutinize the merits
and demerits. It is obvious that we will not be
able to consider all the details of the system as
they varied from time to time and from place to
place. But a general review of the system would
help us to overcome our disturbance!
5. This can be done only if we rise above the petty
considerations of religion, region, caste, political
power and other vested interests. This would help
us rectify the present education system.
Conversely, unless the existing education system
is rectified appropriately subsequent generations
may not be able to develop the three domains of
education adequately.
Many of you may argue here that this task can not
be accomplished by common people, but can be
successfully accomplished only by the politicians,
political advisors, the decision-makers and the
top administrators.
This argument is valid, but not completely. It has
to be appreciated that no statesman, no political
leader, no policy maker and no administrator can
bring about change in an existing system unless,
there is consensus about these changes in the vast
6. majority of people whose cooperation in such
matters is very vital.
So let us take at least a cursory look at the
traditional system of education in India.
The traditional education system in India in
general ensured that:
a] Careers were not selected on the basis of
monetary gains,
b] Careers were not selected arbitrarily on the
basis of idiosyncrasies and whims,
c] Some lucrative careers could not be sought
after obsessively, in preference to the others,
d] All careers ensured income and production
from early age,
e] All careers ensured that society was benefited,
f] All careers ensured security to all the social
groups,
g] All the careers ensured intimacy and closeness
between young and old in the families.
7. h] All careers ensured ethical education and
passage of experience from generation to
generation.
In my view these were merits.
(But it is also true that: The traditional system
was apparently marked by deprivation of
scholastic education on mass scale, apparently
unjustifiable distribution of a variety of jobs,
deficient infrastructure for collective scientific
and technological efforts, an element of arbitrary
imposition of hierarchy and).
But the point here is to see how the transition
from traditional system to the present one has
failed to preserve and nurture the merits and
discard the demerits and thereby lead to
multiplication of problems!
As the education shifted from homes, home
industries and farms to; nurseries, K.G. schools,
8. schools, colleges, universities, corporate
industries, research institutions etc.
Cognition suffered because of:
a] Huge number of students, in a single class
making following three things almost impossible.
These things are i] individual attention ii]
dialogue iii] discussions,
b] Lack of adequate salary, accountability,
incentive and economic security to the teachers
taking away the initiative of nurturing cognitive
domain
c] Increase in alienation with respect to student’s
background and aptitude
d] Lack of adequate incentive to the students in
the form of creativity, production and earning,
service to the family and service to the nation,
takes away the motivation required for building
up cognitive domain
e] Lack of conviction essential in the growth of
cognitive domain in the teachers and students
because of outdated practical and demonstration
9. classes, lack of interdisciplinary dialogue and in
general the irrelevance of education to the
realities of day to day life in as much as almost
predictable consecutive unemployment at the
end! The lack of conviction could be partly due to
lack of participation by teachers in decision-
making, policy making, development of curricula,
syllabi etc.
f] Emphasis on recall and hence rote learning
thereby denying free inquiry, reading,
questioning etc. thereby directly thwarting the
cognitive domain
g]] Too many examinations with irrelevant
parameters or criteria of evaluation [besides being
unfair in many instances] lead to misguided and
in most cases counterproductive efforts thus
adversely affecting the cognitive domain
h] Competitions where the manipulative skills,
callousness, selfishness are given more respect,
destroy the enthusiasm of growing in cognitive
domain
10. i] Information explosion can affect cognitive
domain by either causing enormous and
unnecessary burden on memory or inferiority
complex
j] Pressure of interviews causing constant tension
and sense of inadequacy, right from the tender
age,
k] Protracted hours of homework in schools
denying the students their legitimate right to
enjoy their childhood and make them physically,
mentally and intellectually unfit to grow in
cognitive domain
l] Irrelevant and unnecessary information loading
in lectures in the form of monologue, leading to
suppression of the spontaneity, originality,
interest and enthusiasm so much required in
cognitive development amongst the students,
Affective domain suffered due to,
11. A] Isolation of the children from their parents and
their domestic environment at an early age
[Making the parents also equally sad]
B] Lack of warm bonds due to huge number,
C] Cut throat individualistic and petty
competition,
D] Inadequate facilities of sports, trekking,
educational tours, recreation and physical
development etc
E] Alienation from one’s social environment and
culture
Psychomotor domain suffered due to
A] Almost total lack of opportunities to actually
participate in skillful activities such as drawing,
painting, sewing, sculpturing, carpentry, knitting,
weaving, music, agriculture, horticulture, other
handicrafts, various sports, performing arts etc.
It is important to realize that promotion of
psychomotor domain is evident but in its
caricature form. It has no concrete economic
12. realistic basis. The activities have no economic
incentive and no productive element.
The present education system in India;
basically and almost completely prevents a
huge section of society such as teachers,
students, clerks, servants, sweepers and many
others such as education inspectors, etc. from
being creative and productive. In addition it
causes colossal loss of space, electricity,
construction cost and so on. In addition
because of the typical emphasis on rote
learning it leads to phenomenal waste of
educational material such as paper, bags,
pencils, ball pens etc.
Lack of productive element in education not only
causes colossal loss to nation but it also causes
economic loss to children while suppressing and
starving their psychomotor domain! The lack of
13. productive element and economic incentive is a
single most important cause of
1] Reduction in the dignity of labor amongst
those who continue to learn, as well as reduction
in the income of the concerned families and the
nation
2] Lack of education, lack of employment and
starvation or criminalization amongst those who
are forced to drop out because the poor villagers’
children normally contribute to the earning of the
family.
3] Inhuman suffering of those dropouts, who
somehow manage to get into cheap labor for
subsistence.
It has to be appreciated that billions of rupees
are spent on construction, decoration and
maintenance of schools and colleges. Billions
more are spent on payment of millions of
teachers and other staff members engaged in
unproductive exercises. Billions are spent on
electricity, and so called educational material.
14. Billions more are spent on the exams
conducted to test the “capacity and merit of
rote learning”. This way we weaken the
national economy, jeopardize the
developmental activities and force millions of
students to drop out due to economic reasons
and get into the hell of child labor, besides
starving and suppressing the cognitive,
affective and psychomotor domains of
millions. In short, present day education
system harnesses [amongst those who continue
to learn] arrogance coupled with lack of
confidence leaving all the domains viz.
cognitive, psychomotor and affective,
[including creative and productive skills and
physical health] defective, deficient and
underdeveloped. Further, when this education
fails to give a job, it tends to create vindictive
attitude transforming an individual into a
criminal or develops frustration and
transforms an individual into a mental wreck.
15. It must be appreciated that some institutions and
individuals are making illustrious efforts in the
direction of rectifying the education at their level.
But the chaos in the present education and the
resultant conceptual stress cannot be managed
effectively, unless we propagate this conceptual
understanding about education and try to see that
suitable changes are made to nurture cognitive,
affective, psychomotor and productive domains
all over the world.
In short it can be stated that every school, college,
university etc must become the centers of
production and service besides being centers
excellence in science, art, literature, philosophy
etc.
The student must have economic incentive for
what he/she is privileged to make. Besides,
everybody connected with education directly or
16. indirectly must be involved in production or
service.
Everyday approximately
20 % of the time must be spent in production,
service etc.
20 % of the time must be spent in physical
activities
20 % of the time must be spent in personality
development and
20 % of the time must be spent in entertainment
20 % of the time must be spent on cognitive
domain
Production may be of suitable items and service
can involve community projects such plantation,
cleanliness etc.
Physical activities can include sports, exercise,
trekking, hiking etc.
Personality development refers to broadening of
perspective through various means such as
invited guest lectures, seminars, discussions on
holistic health, educational tours and visits to
17. places where the student gets exposed to rapid
developments in the society such as laboratories,
airports, government offices, share market, farms
etc.
Entertainment could include playing musical
instruments, dance, painting or anything that
makes a student happy such as mimicry, singing,
story telling, drama, movie etc.
Development of cognitive domain can include
teaching of languages, history, geography,
mathematics etc with utmost emphasis on
interpretation and relevance in day to day life.
Thus typical questions in the examination of
history, languages should be totally done away
with. The subject such as economics, psychology,
civics, philosophy, logic, sociology etc must
include field work and made relevant to the
present society.
Conceptual stress arising out of chaos in
education can not be managed effectively unless
18. and until a situation where millions are
“imprisoned” in unproductive work and millions
are forced into unemployment and inhuman
cheap child labor is eradicated through law and
government rules, besides public awareness.
The details of practical steps can be developed
by interactions amongst the people active in
the field of education all over the world.
