Feeling hopeful of change in education system by introduction of नई राष्ट्रीय शिक्षा नीति 2020 ( New National Education Policy 2020 )
A lot of good thing has been introduced and idealized. 👍
📌 Learning in mother-tongue/ local language -- at least up to class 5th. Personally I felt this is a very good step. Due to English medium teaching, students just get lost in translation. They struggle more with English than Science in the subject of science, they struggle more with English than Social science in the subject of Social science.
And then proposal of teaching Science/Math in bilingual way after 6th.
I know various people in my personal space who were Hindi medium students and are doing better in their field.
And various successful people can be found in society - IPS Gupteshwar Pandey sir, H.C. Verma sir, Manoj Bajpayee, Rajpal Yadav (sources - google).
Personally I feel that parents & society has to come over this stigma of English and help to implement this in their nearby school (especially in tier-II and below cities where students have no home or society based environment of English speaking )
But at the same time, the strict implementation may create problem in cosmopolitan cultured society where diverse group of people are living.Dr. Sankrant Sanu should be listened
📌 curriculum structure of 5 +3 + 3 + 4 years (starting from pre-primary stage of 3 years) from current structure of 10+2+3 years.
📌 No hard separation between curricular / co-curricular /extra curricular (students can take math with music as subject )... hope this will help to weaken the stigma of science & math
📌Inclusion of local level internship for vocational learning - Internship with local gardener, carpenter, artisans ... - some of the organization like SECMOL, Navonmesh Prasar Foundation have already integrated skill based learning with main stream education. Hope this will also help to remove the social stigma of certain work as a low level. Hope this will create sensation about importance of labour (श्रम) and hence will develop a generation which understand that paying a penny on flour means paying for all the labour & money involved in ploughing field, seeding, weeding, plantation, harvesting, husking, storing grains, transportation, processing of making flour, packaging etc.
📌Digital learning, ICT enabled learning, coding from grade 6th onwards.
📌Board exams can be made easier, it may be changed to semester/modular based.
📌Assessment card will also include self assessment & peer assessment ... woow ... 🤗 Feeling fancy
📌Also discussed about imparting traditional Indian values, basic human values, teaching empathy, honesty, tolerance, plagiarism.... But personally I felt that still it is not on priority of same level in the policy as other things...... let us see how coming education framework incorporate these basic and must have quality. Some organisation like #JeevanVidya is already doing commendable work on human values in higher technical education. #HappinessCurriculum of Delhi is also doing better in school education. Apart from school education.
📌 Multiple exit system in higher education is really gonna great move. Now students can switch their courses in between with better understanding and have no loss of year. If one wants to go to music after two years of engineering , he will receive diploma in engineering and can quit. It will give strength to students to try their passion. Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology is already providing this facility. Flexible course structure and transferable credit system will also be a good move.
And in the last the legendary one, मानव संसाधन विकास मंत्रालय is now Human will be no more "resources", human will be just human; much above the resources ...
उम्मीद है कि हम 12-15 साल की शिक्षा के बाद मशीन के लिए मानव तैयार करना या मशीनी मानव तैयार करना बन्द कर पाएँगे ।
A lot of good hope... 😍
Good luck to all 👍
कुछ प्रश्न (डर) भी हैं - पढ़ाई काफ़ी मंहगी ना हो जाए ! , मौजूदा सरकारी व्यवस्था को ठीक करने के बजाए ख़राब बोलकर बंद ना कर दिया जाए ! , क्या ये नयी पालिसी कोचिंग / ट्यूशन की संस्कृति को मद्धम भी कर पायेगी ? क्या जीडीपी का 6 प्रतिशत का खर्च अगले बजट में मिल जाएगा ?
बस एक अंतिम उम्मीद है की ये सिर्फ पालिसी ना रह जाए और जमीन पर इसी आदर्श-वादिता के साथ लागू किया जा सके |
