Answer:

THE STATE OF EDUCATION TODAY             By Karuna/Karan             Our ancestors have received their learning at gurukuls and ashrams. Pathshalas were regarded as the place of worship. But the scenario has completely changed now. Today, education has been totally commercialized. Whether its school or college, students have to rush to coaching classes and parents have to shell out a lot of money on them. They don?t rely on classroom teaching. On the other hand parents? expectations from their children have increased. They want them to secure highest marks so as to get the highest paid jobs. They want them to become doctors, administrative officers, engineers, etc. For this, they send their children to the most reputed schools; still they are not satisfied with their performance. They want their child to get some extra knowledge to excel others in the line.             Thus, craze has for coaching classes has increased.             Another reason for joining the coaching classes is the inferiority complex which children face when they do not go for extra coaching. Although these so called coaching classes are just like the school classes because there also group teaching method is used, still parents as well as children think them to be far superior to the classroom teaching. They should realize that these so called coaching classes are no better than a money making business. The students must pay attention in class and must concentrate more on self-study.

ROLE OF STUDENTS IN ERADICATING           ILLITERACY             By Karuna/Karan             Youth plays a very important role in building the nation. With the increase in population, the responsibilities of students have also increased. They are the pivot on which the development of any nation depends. We know that India is a land of villages and most of its population is illiterate. In most of the villages, there are no schools or teaching facilities. Thus, villagers don?t get any opportunity to learn. Poverty and ignorance have deprived them from becoming literate. Therefore, it becomes the duty of the youth to render their services to them by teaching them. They can share their valuable advice and guidance to educate? Them. We know that education helps in economic, social, spiritual and mental development. It broadens ones outlook towards society. Being illiterate or uneducated is like a curse? Students can help these people by organizing evening classes and by following the rule of each one, teach one?. Out of their twenty four hours, the students can spare at least one hour fort the unpriviledged people. They can spread awareness among the illiterates regarding the hazards of overpopulation and recommend the need of having a small family. Many NGOs and governmental agencies are there to assist these youths in this regard. They can be encouraged to do so by giving them the incentive of gaining additional marks or extra grades.             Youth, therefore, can play a major role in making the country progressive and prosperous by bringing complete change in the attitude and thinking of the illiterate. So, let?s join hands to eradicate illiteracy from our country.
