Principal, Pacific world school
India has always been a land of transitions across various verticals, and each segment has witnessed growth ever since change began. Similarly, the education system has also undergone multiple transitions since the early era. We’ve come from studying under trees or in an open field to huge, well-set-up classrooms and have now transformed the whole world into a learning space where every section trains us to have a better understanding of concepts and operations. The developments in the education system, curriculum and mode of learning have made the process much easier than it used to be.
The NEP 2020 was unveiled with the goal of establishing a new educational system in the nation at a time when urgent technical action was required to guarantee students’ ongoing education. Since that time, nobody has turned back. The education sector has advanced significantly, from schools implementing online learning to higher education programmes being given online. According to the NEP, which aims to achieve a 100% Gross Enrolment Ratio for pupils in pre-school through secondary education by 2030, India will soon surpass all other countries in terms of knowledge production.
We made some progress toward this aim, but there is still a long way to go. While numerous schools have already made the switch to competency-based learning mechanisms, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) stated its intention to transition to the new format in the next year fully. We’re looking to bring accessibility, equity, quality, affordability, and accountability into the educational system as more schools around the nation embrace NEP. The Common University Entrance Test (CUET), which altered the university admissions process, was just one of many changes in the education sector that took place in 2022. The Indian Institute of Technologies (IITs) also announced plans to establish offshore campus in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt, and Saudi Arabia.
We are all aware, blended and hybrid learning are undoubtedly here to stay. Regarding the first, including digital components in routine classes will surely improve and engage students. Strengthening and implementing student-centred learning is essential for the future of education. Because their unique talents will be maximised and deeply interwoven into their everyday learning, we anticipate that tech-savvy students will profit greatly from various learning patterns in the future year.
In order to help students develop critical 21st-century skills like problem-solving, creative and critical thinking, digital literacy, experiential learning, and global competency that will help them become the important decision-makers of tomorrow, the ed-tech industry should concentrate its efforts in 2023 on the New Education Policy. The government should also acknowledge the need to update the entire educational system with the use of technology, which may be supported by a number of Ed-Tech businesses as they have the means to give students access to tech-based learning.
Students must be taught the subjects in the curriculum with the goal of teaching them to learn and solve issues in the real world by applying principles, not merely to do well in exams. Early exposure to computer science education helps children overcome their fear of technology, improves their ability to think critically and artistically express themselves, and prepares them to create technology responsibly and with a positive social impact. Governments, academic institutions, and businesses can work together to better equip teachers with the information they need to educate students and support young talent from all socio-economic backgrounds in building a better future for themselves and all of us by assisting teachers in understanding emerging trends in the job market.
