A Changed World With Unchanged
Classrooms:
-HARVARD UNIVERSITY REPORT- 2002 ,
“If you compared our world today with the world one
hundred years ago , you would encounter amazing advances in
science , commerce , health care , transportation and countless
other factors . But if you were to compare the classroom of a
hundred years ago with an average classroom today , you would
recognise it immediately : students lined up in rows , paper &
pencil in hand ; a teacher at the blackboard jotting down
important facts ; students furiously copying all that is written &
said , expecting to memorise the facts & spit them out on an
exam.”
