Education: A Learning Curve

Every now and then we hear this discussion about India becoming the back office of the world, the knowledge power and so on. This article looks at one of the major reasons that this is happening and will continue to, “Indian Education”.

The part which makes the most sense to me is the following: -

Both students and parents are intensely dedicated. Night after night, middle-class Indian parents insist on overseeing their kids’ homework—it’s a rare mother who accepts a dinner invitation during exam season. By the age of 15, the young are packed off to coaching classes to prepare them for entry into the competitive colleges.

Thanks Mom for telling me to study :-)
