Need of making education student friendly

In today's education era of endless competition and mindless cramming of facts, the obvious questions that arises is how we are going to deal with the disappointing consequences of marks driven education instead of thought driven education. Today's parents are more concerned about marks and class ranks instead of child's overall development. As far as teachers are concerned even they have tendency to judge a child on it's academic performance. But nobody cares what a child wants for himselfwhat does he want to becomewhat are his ambitionsdoes he likes studies or playing games or singing song? when he is being taught in class does he really wants to study or studies seem to be boring or burden for him. If teachers take initiative to make it interesting or to make it a fun to learn process. 

No doubt just playing games or singing song or doing some other activities would suffice his future needs. Definitely he needs to study as well but that doesn't mean he should be halted from doing other activities. If we do so then the child starts loosing interest not only in his studies but also his beloved hobbies and his mind gets diverted towards wrong direction.

The obvious question that comes into one's mind is how to deal with this situation because one can't allow one's child to make his hobby as career; knowing to that fact that a child's hobby may change with span of time and if that happens his future would be ruined. The only solution could be Making  Education Student Friendly.This could be done by blending the current education system with the approach we would discuss in our future posts. The motive is to align the current curriculum with new curriculum based on child centric approach. 

Together, lets create more smiles
