The misconception in our educational system

The misconception in our educational system

 

There are more than two hundred countries in the world. All these countries have diversity in everything. Some countries are very good and developed, while some countries are poor and not developed. If a country is rich and developed, the citizens of that country are valued at every corner of the world. If society is good, the nation and the country will be developed. But what creates a good society. There are many ideas, but a very good answer would be the educational system. If schools, colleges, universities are good, then society will be good because the students get older and build society. This means that the most important thing a country can focus on is education, not military or business or something else. There is no doubt that education plays the most important role in building the society. Every country must try to spend more and focus more on education. While there are countries who have not understood this theory very well and they still focus more on their military and other useless things. They do not focus on education. And this is the reason they will never develop. Pakistan and Afghanistan are one of those countries who have not understood this theory. 6 years old students in developed countries know programming, mathematics, business, and other good subjects. While due to misconception in our educational system, most of the matric students know nothing about programming. They are weaker than those 6 years of students in other counties. And we still demand betterment and development in our country.

Though there are many ways and modifications we can bring in our educational system, some of them are shared below. We must change our educational system or we will never improve and develop. There are some errors and misconceptions in our system which we must remove and modify. Firstly, the educational system in Pakistan is the system that Britain has given to us which is almost 100 years old. We must be updated. A 100 years old system cannot help us in this developed and technological era. We must modify the buildings of our schools. The schools in developed countries are well constructed and beautiful. While those kinds of beautiful buildings in Pakistan are owned by the government only. They do not even think of providing this for the students. Secondly, we must change our subjects. The subjects in developing countries are not very effective. They lack subjects like, physical education, Arts, Music, Technology, Business, Programming, Politics, Family Studies, Manners, Morality, and others. We must try to add these important subjects in our educational system. Thirdly, we must have qualified teachers. The teachers in developed countries have done their masters, and have studied teacher training courses for three years. Only then they are prepared to teach and nourish the students. While in Pakistan, even the matric students have jobs in schools for teaching. Fourthly, the society of the developed countries is a way that they value education more than money. People value education more than money. While in developing countries, society values money more than education. Robert Mugabe says that in a society where the power and money are with the ignorant people, how can you convince the youth to study? This is the case with the developing countries. The society must support education only then can they be developed in education.
