Education might need a new approach

Education has always been pivotal for any person’s professional as well as personal growth. This is an undeniable fact and so education is always given top priority in any child’s life.

This means that almost everyone is exposed to some sort of an academic environment since childhood and hence education as a concept & as a field proves to be highly impactful.

Here we need to ask ourselves that if education proves to be so influential (which it really does) then should it not be reviewed from time to time so as to keep it in sync with time and make it more apt?

Education really needs to be looked into as some major changes might be needed to be incorporated due to the changing times.

Gone are those days when a student was going to clear his or her high school and then happily take up some work or when a student would do a Bachelor’s degree and be considered erudite.

These days everyone aspires to reach out to the highest levels right from there middle school days primarily thanks to the ever-growing & continuously evolving dreams of the parents.

Now, one awkward reality needs to be faced and accepted which is that not everyone makes it to the top or even to the table top.

Not everyone makes it big in life but every student subjects himself or herself to maximum amount of ambitions in school days and this really proves to be disastrous later in life.

Such students are unable to last the tides of time and end up flowing away with rising waves of resentments only to drown in the whirlpool of depression or fade away in the darkness of bad lifestyle habits.

Under such circumstances it becomes doubly important to understand the true meaning of education.

Education should be very vocational training centric and not theory centric. It should teach students to discard the elitist dreams and opt for a more contentment driven lifestyle.

Students must be taught the relevance and applicability of hobbies and so they should be encouraged to take up at least one hobby early in life.

It is very important that the right kinds of learning are imparted to students at the right age & right measures in order to make them stable and productive individuals who can then contribute to the growth and development of their respective societies.
