IDEAL EDUCATION..

Education today is a requirement. Quality education is becoming rare day by day. The main cause for this can be the definition of education itself. The scenario around education is very dynamic. The skill requirement is changing everyday. But the skilling process is not coping up well with the changing market demand. This creates a void in the market. Jobs are getting scarce because the jobs today demand different skills which is not available in the youth who aspire jobs. These problems are prominent but they can be well contained. The odds can be turned in favour. But there are some problems which are making the entire system hollow from the inside. These are the problems of corruption and  favouritism in the sphere of education.

This is nothing new. The puranas and the ancient hindu texts have a lot of such examples. The example of mahabharat can be sighted as an example. Dronacharya promised that he would make Arjuna the greatest archer living. To keep his promise he demanded the thumb of Eklavya as guru dakshina. He knew that Eklavya was better than Arjuna. But still he went ahead with this. This was not what we call ideal educational behaviour of a teacher. Thus even the ancient gurukuls and their gurus were not free from corruption and favouritism.

These phenomenons are found is a much magnified form in today's educational institutions. The teachers have gone ahead miles to prove their power. This powerlust is responsible for educational downfall in educational institutions in general and institutions of India in particular. There is not a lack of talent in the teachers rather they have lost their morals completely. The morals and moral education have high regard in Indian society and homes. But sadly that same moral ideology is absent in its educational institutions.

Education is the exchange of knowledge. But when such exchange involves the three major downsizing feelings, the exchange becomes corrupted. The three feelings talked about here are fear, anger and jealousy. They can ruin the lives and in this case two lives. The teachers today favour students and go in deep to provide them with ill favours. This not only destroys the talent aspect of the student who gets favour , but also is affects the one who is being treated in a wrong way.

This is rampant in the educational institutions of today. Every student has either faced it or has witnessed it being happening. This is the new reality. With such kind of practises present how can we expect our educational institutions to grow and cope up with modern demands. The teachers who do such kind of works are to blame but the teachers who see such things happening and still do not take any steps are equally responsible because they are the ones who can curb this problem. The students who take such favours are destroying their own life. They are treating their talents in an inferior way and are loosing the chances of prospering.

This is a prominent problem. The solution should be prominent and lasting as well. The thing now is who should bring the change. The teachers? The higher authorities? The government? The answer is still unknown. Morality is rare now a days. This rarity is getting worse due to this circumstances. They need to change. They should change for better.
