[object Object],A journalist came up to one of these kids and asked him, "How do you know so much about computers?" The answer seemed very strange to her because the kid said, "What's a computer?" The terminology is not as important as the metaphor. If they've got the idea of how a mouse works and that the Internet is like a wall they can paint on, who cares if they know that a computer is called a computer and a mouse is called a mouse?

An age in which Google and other search engines are leading us into a future rich with an abundance of correct answers along with an accompanying naive sense of certainty. In the future, we will be able to answer the question, but will we be bright enough to ask it? We are in the age of searchculture.

Getting down to Earth, Touching base with Reality! ,[object Object],[object Object],Interviews with…..

The questions I asked them…1 ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

The questions I asked them…4 ,[object Object],Got a broadly ‘similar’ answer from each of them… (Using props, projectors, video, computers, Internet, etc in a classroom environment)..

The questions I asked them…9a ,[object Object],I will remove learning for the sake of good exam marks. and every student should do a project in a field he likes, before coming out of school.

The questions I asked them…9b ,[object Object],For example, why are we learning "Differential Calculus", how it will be useful for real-time, who all use this, in what situations, and why.

The questions I asked them…9c ,[object Object],Nowadays there is so much craze towards engineering (IIT's????) and medicine. Both the parents and students are not able to look beyond them towards other areas such as arts and commerce. Students should take to engineering only if they have a feel for it not because their parents wish so. In schools the extracurriculars should be given more preference.

The questions I asked them…9d ,[object Object],Try changing the examination pattern, which would require the students know the concepts, and not just recollection of facts. Unfortunately, most examinations are this way, but I am quite happy about the changes that have been brought about recently, and that we are heading in the right direction. It shouldn't be "I came, I mugged, I got 100%".

The questions I asked them…10a ,[object Object],No one can do everything, But everybody can do something. So the teachers and principles should believe in every child's hidden potential, and they should help them to improve it.

The questions I asked them…10b ,[object Object],Be like Jambavan (in Ramayan), who helped Hanuman, to know his strength and potential (who was in the stage of “Does not Know that he Knows!”), help the students to bring out their hidden potential and make them to understand their capabilities.

The questions I asked them…10c ,[object Object],Stress more on communication skills."all the students" should be encouraged in participating in events like elocution, debate, quizzes. Because that is hitting us very hard at this time.

The questions I asked them…10d ,[object Object],The aim must be to make learning more enjoyable, than more dreadful. And, hence, students' feedback is the most important, which I find lacking. Good Luck :)
