It is time to explore how to make the best of the opportunity in
the field of education. Here are the times where learner chooses
when, where, what and how to learn. It is an informed decision
taken by the learner and education is centered on what the student
wants to learn.
India has become the most sought after global market since Prime
Minister Narendra Modi has placed great thrust on the "Make in
India" initiative. Out of several domains that are expected to see
high growth rates, Education is a domain with huge opportunities.
Progress in the education domain results in employable work force
made available for various other domains. Research on the Indian
Education Market proposes a doubled up growth rate in the coming
years. Imparting and evaluating education is changing in India in
line with the global trend. The certificate of passing holds no
value unless the individual proves to have acquired the relevant
skills as per the certification. Communication skills, analytical
skills and team spirit are some of the other most sought after
skills by todays employers. Hence it becomes mandatory that the
education providers offer what the industry needs rather than
churning out graduates with no employability. Hence the focus of
education should not be limited to literacy of people but extend to
educate them instead.
It is a well known fact today, that most of the employers in
India are multinational companies. They are into several domains
including technology, education, banking; health and agriculture.
The work force they are looking for is highly competent,
communicative and techno savvy. However all Indian Schools,
colleges and Universities are not geared up to impart the expected
quality and employability to their students. There are very few
educational institutes that meet the global standards of
employability in their students. It is a great concern that none of
the Indian universities find place in Global University Rankings.
There are several factors that contribute to this status. Lack of
Infrastructure, qualified faculty, research funds and genuine
research, top the list of the factors. It is a fact that most of
the education in varied fields is not made available to the
millions of rural Indians due to long distance, lack of finance and
awareness. This can be amended with the help of ICT, best of the
teachers in most sought after fields can reach all these remote
living Indian youth through Technology and internet. It is proven
that, the quality of teaching, learning, managing educational
institutes will enhance through the use of ICT (Information and
communication technology). This will alter the age old Teacher
centric education towards the most sought after and most effective
Student-centric methodology. This facilitates interactive learning,
flexible learning and enhance the quality of learning environment.
This interactive process of teaching will excite, invite and
encourage more students to participate. It will be a voluntary
learning and exploring of ones own potential.
There are many Schools, Colleges and Universities that are
willing to take the steps towards adding value through technology.
And at the same time there are number of service providers offering
high quality technology products and committed services in the
Education Domain. MGRM Net Limited is one of the pioneers in this
field with their tried and tested research based education expert
systems.
