Why am I not enjoying my education?
Today I am looking at my old mark sheet. It freshened the old memories of my school days. I scored enough marks in my school days to be counted as a good student in my class. But today I have a problem with this categorization itself because it works as a barrier to the full blossom of enjoyment of learning. Imposing fixed dimensions to evaluate the learners' progress is very unfair because dimensions are not rigid it is evolving in nature. Quantification of evolving things on certain parameters is a fraud in itself. In the present day, the whole focus is on quantification of the progress of learners. I am not against the present-day education system but there is a huge lack of creative space in the system.
Way forward
- Compassion not competition
In today's world, we need compassion in every aspect. Compassion is key to harmony and harmony is the foundation of all existence. The teaching-learning process must emphasize compassion. Compassion in action leads to sustainable development and blissful life.
- Development of a healthier lifestyle
Physical, mental, and emotional wellness is very important for a healthy life. Our lifestyle affects all three factors. In our education system inclusion of this aspect is very necessary. For this following things may be helpful:
- Yoga
- Aesthetic activities
- Healthier food habits
- More opportunities for self expression
