New Developments in the Educational System- Written by( Joshua Y Tigga )- Shreya Gupta(Managing News Partner, Bisjhintus News)

 

The notable developments in the education system involve:

 

·    Change in the structure of old 10+2 board exams, which are now converted into 5+3+3+4 exam classes.

·    The first stage is the foundation stage, which consists of preschool to second grade; the second is the preparatory stage, which will include classes from 3-5; the middle stage will range from 6-8; and the final stage is the secondary stage, which will range from 9 to 12. It will allow them to focus on their skills and talents.

·    Students can now no longer opt for science, commerce, or the arts; instead, they will be able to choose a variety of subjects from compulsory to skill-based, regardless of their stream. For instance, an individual can choose physics, which is a science subject, or economics, which is a commerce subject.

 

Highlights:

 

Education is not restricted to the classroom alone.

Vocational courses will now start at Standard 6, and internships will be compulsory.

Recent changes in guidelines include:

 

Students with a 4-year bachelor's degree with 75% marks can directly pursue a PhD. UGC

Students with 4-year UG degrees are now eligible for NET.

 

Conclusion:

 

These changes have been made keeping in mind the slow pace of the Indian education system. And they have been done to counter them. The education system is now providing more flexibility and freedom to the learners. Students can choose varied combinations of subjects and aspire to become something that was not at all an option a few years ago.

Education has crossed many boundaries. While learning, students can interact with other students online of diverse backgrounds and diverse knowledge bases. Hence, learning to get inspired by others and respect each other.
