We are becoming modern, and more developed day by day! The bicycles we used to use for transportation in previous years are now widely replaced by bikes and cars. Many things have now transformed and changed for our betterment and luxury, but what about education? Same Homework, Same one teacher in a class of 30+ students, and same curriculum. Nothing has changed! What do you think, is there any need of transformation in our education system?

I guess it depends on where you live. Since I live in the USA, I think there is a huge need for the funding of education. I came out of school with thousands of dollars in loans, and it's pretty crippling. I think my college education was well done, but I'm not sure it was worth the cost. I feel like education can result in depression just as often as it results in success. It's really a double-edged sword.

You've put it very nicely. It surely is like a double-edged sword. I have heard that education is really expensive in USA. If education is resulting in depression among students, there is surely a need for change!

Education is a way for the mind to expand and each person grasps different subjects more extensively than others therefore resulting in a basic foundation to build from. Generalities teach to think deeper

That's true. so if we want to make our thinking updates, we must make some changes in the learning process.

Some things should change, while things that work well might remain the same.

Things really need to change everywhere. Time has marched on and so many things stay the same in the school systems.

That's true! For in India, education is not about learning, it's about percentage you obtain in exams.

yes ofcourse in india the education system is became so old. In some state today we follow same syllabus since 2005!!!. Thats why the course content is out dated and ya the way to provide education is became outdated
