Test - IV: General EnglishDirections (Q. 151-160) : Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions givenbelow it. Certain words/phrases have been printed in bold to help you locate them whileanswering some of the questions.

Right of entry to education, an ample teaching-learning environment, a suitable curriculum andan empowered and all-encompassing faculty are four essential prerequisites of an education systemthat seeks to enable social transformation. While educational reform since the 1980s was stronglyfocused on the first two elements, the late 1990s brought the role of the curriculum into nationalfocus. The critical link that binds these four critical elements together-the activity of the faculty-continues to be cast aside by political ideologies of most hues, contemporary curriculum reformefforts and the professional practices of the faculty.

Far-reaching educational initiatives of both the Left and the Right have recognised the potentialpower of the faculty. In multiple experiments, they have used this dormant force to build committedinstitutions and cadres of facilities dedicated to their particular causes. In many instances, this hasled to extreme politicisation of the college faculty. In others, it has led to the education of a generationof students in half-truths underpinned by the personal beliefs, sectarian concerns and folk pedagogyof faculties who have had little access themselves to education and training in related areas.

Over the last decade or so, educational reform has included, apart from access, a focus ondeveloping alternative text materials and the training of faculty to handle these materials, withoutdirectly engaging with the issue of curriculum revamp. At the turn of the 20th century, a majornational curriculum redesign was initiated following the change of political regime at the centre. Thesubsequent development of college programme came under wide public scrutiny and debate. Issuesof equity, inclusion and exclusion, learner medley, religious identity and communalism gainedconsiderable importance in the curriculum debates that followed. For instance, scholars argued that... the curriculum, while loud on rhetoric, fails to address the quality of education that students ofunderprivileged and marginalised groups experience. Several other critics described the revisedcurriculum as a retrogressive step in education that sought to impose the religious agenda in thegarb of national identity.

The subsequent change of national government in 2004 led to the curriculum review in 2005,underlining a new political interest in the role of education in national development, its role in socialmobilisation and transformation directed specifically at questions of caste and gender asymmetryand minority empowerment. Deeper than these politically driven initiatives, however, the professionalneed for curriculum review emerges from the long ossification of a national education system thatcontinues to view faculty as dispensers of information and students as passive recipients of aneducation sought to be delivered in four-walled classrooms with little scope to develop criticalthinking and understanding.
