Indian Education Vs Foreign Education

When comparing both of these education systems, I hate Indian Education system though I am an Indian. The reason is here in India a student is given a book, he mugs it up and vomits in the exam and score marks where as students are exposed to practical knowledge in the foreign education. Here only theoretical knowledge is cultivated in the minds of students and once he get into a job where practical knowledge plays its part he start to struggle. I strong recommend that our Indian Education system must be changed and e-learning must be practiced strictly to enhance vast knowledge in the minds of the budding students...

I agree with you.I am too an Indian but am not very impressed by the education available in Indian schools and collages.Foreign education is far more better as they just dont stick to theoritical studies only.

Ramesh, do you know the American Education system is not able to throw up the quality of graduates required to run the hi-tech industry there? American textbooks are the most inspiring. Americans are perhaps the greatest teachers of the rational sciences. Learning a subject whether it is control systems or computer programming, microbiology or electro-chemistry,American textbooks are par excellence. Yet the American Education system is not able to bring up graduates capable of filling their research needs. I am so sad that America[US] the home to the greatest discoveries in modern science and technology, is fast losing their talent pool. For one thing they have lesser and lesser people in the 25 + age bracket. The tough conditions under which we Indian learn makes us more flexible to receive the essentials of usable education and we are high on the uptake. Do you know that simple things like computational abilities don't get enough practiced in the US? I do agree with you the way the Indian Educational institutions conduct the learning with no grounding in practicals, needs to be revise. But many Engg institutions in Bangalore for instance, now-a-days come up with excellent technological projects. Some of the best colleges in Bangalore for instance have student-entrepreneurial development centers and the idea of the young entrepreneur is encouraged. So, change is there in India. What we need badly is a more responsible and responsive older generation sitting in the echelons of power. Today ways of enhancing the learning methods are avilable like you have also said - E-learning!
