Please stop giving importance to 10th standard board exam: It is not special, it's like any other previous classes of schooling:

Most of us have experienced our life's 'sweet 16'. In this age usually we face our 10th standard board exam.

After the board results are announced the new heroes and heroines appear on TV and newspaper. Is the knowledge so glamorous.

Let's analyse some practical issues.

Have you ever thought why do we give so much importance to performance of 10th standard alone? Is not the learning of the previous years important?

One major cause among the many causes which is creating more importance for 10th standard is, the 'Marks card' of board exam. The reason is, this marks card is considered for higher education, job and few legal/government office procedures. Because of this we focus on 1 year result/marks, ignoring a decade of education happened till 10th.

The other reason is the answer sheet is not evalvated by the teachers who taught them. I e. A third person does board exam paper correction.

5 facts about 10th standard might clear our misconceptions:

1. The 10th standard is just a continuation of 9th standard as we continued from 1st to 2nd or 6th to 7th or 8th to 9th.

2. The education board/experts draw the curriculum plan from 1st standard to 10th standard according to the learning level and age appropriateness of the children. So each grade/class is important.

3. The topics which are taught in 10th standard are all connected to previous grades, it is important for students to know previous class concepts (primary/ higher primary). The students who have not put good efforts in earlier classes will feel the pain to cope up with concepts in 10th. Specially in maths and science.

4. In an effort to get more marks the students often who are not used to routine study habits, feel the pain to get into strict study schedules in 10th. These students become aggressive or depressed.

Advice: Why can't we make students to focus on studies from earlier classes like primary itself, as we try to organize their routine in 10th standard.

I don't think we plan so deeply for other classes as we do for 10th standard.

5. From grade 1 start preparing and strengthening your child's basics of grammar, writing skills, Comprehension- understanding skills, maths, and science.

To conclude, make your child love to learn, and love the learned.

The height of concentration strategies:

- Image product: The isolator helmet This helmet was an early attempt to solve a psychological problem (distraction) with a hardware solution. The isolator helmet was a device invented by Hugo Gernsback in 1925 to help people concentrate and eliminate distractions. The helmet was made of wood and felt, and had three pieces of glass that allowed the wearer to see only a narrow slit in front of them. The helmet also blocked out all sounds, and had a tube that supplied oxygen to the wearer. The idea was that by isolating the senses, the wearer could focus better on reading or writing. However, the helmet also had some drawbacks, such as making the wearer drowsy after 15 minutes, and being very bulky and uncomfortable. Gernsback claimed that the helmet was 90-95% efficient in blocking out noise, but he only made 11 helmets and they disappeared by 1926. The isolator helmet was featured in Gernsback’s magazine Science and Invention, and later inspired other simil...

Online Schools and eclectic curriculum:

- Online schools, while offering flexibility and accessibility, come with several disadvantages, particularly when they employ a mixed eclectic curriculum. An "eclectic curriculum" typically means drawing from various teaching philosophies and methods, aiming to personalize learning. While this sounds good in theory, in an online setting, it can lead to unique challenges. Here are the disadvantages of online school, especially one offering a mixed eclectic curriculum: I. General Disadvantages of Online School: * Lack of Face-to-Face Interaction and Social Isolation: * Reduced Engagement: Students miss out on spontaneous discussions, immediate feedback, and the dynamic energy of a physical classroom. * Isolation: The absence of in-person interaction with peers and instructors can lead to feelings of loneliness, reduced motivation, and a diminished sense of community. * Limited Social Skill Development: Opportunities for developing crucia...

Education system in Greece and Rome in ancient times: (In Urdu)-

یونان اور روم میں نظامِ تعلیم ڈاکٹر عرفان حبیب مغربی تعلیم کی تاریخ کا آغاز حضرت عیسیٰؑ سے سیکڑوں برس پہلے، یونانی قوم کی تعلیمی سرگرمیوں سے ہوتا ہے۔ اس تاریخ میں بیسویں صدی کی شروعات تک ایک تسلسل پایا جاتا ہے۔ ابتدائی دور میں یونانی شہری ریاستوں میں رہتے تھے۔ شروع ہی سے ان کے یہاں تعلیم کو بڑی اہمیت دی جاتی تھی۔ اچھے شہری تیار کرنے کے لیے تعلیم ضروری تھی۔ یہ ریاستیں دشمنوں میں گھری ہوئی تھیں اور اکثر اندرونی خطروں کا بھی سامنا کرنا ہوتا تھا۔ اس لیے شہریوں کی اس طرح سے تربیت ضروری تھی کہ وہ اندرونی اور بیرونی خطروں کا اچھی طرح مقابلہ کر سکیں۔ اس یونانی سماج کی بنیاد، غلامی کے نظام پر تھی جس میں غلاموں کی تعداد آزاد شہریوں سے کہیں زیادہ تھی۔ تجارت اور ہاتھ سے کام کرنے کو معیوب سمجھا جاتا تھا اور یہ کام غلاموں سے لیے جاتے تھے، اس لیے شہریوں کو کوئی ٹیکنیکل تعلیم حاصل کرنے کی ضرورت نہیں تھی۔ شہری ریاستیں کئی باتوں میں ایک دوسرے سے مختلف تھیں اور اس لیے ان کے تعلیم کے مقاصد بھی جدا جدا تھے مثلاً سپارٹا اور ایتھنز کے تعلیمی نظام بالکل الگ الگ تھے۔ سپارٹا کے شہری اپنے علاقے می...

Challenges faced by school counsellors as per study undertaken in India (Part 1.12)--:

- Counselling skills are seen as an important area in educational institutions. The education boards like CBSE mandates schools to appoint counsellor. The schools which have appointed counsellors in the school environment, the counsellor face few challenges, as school involves multiple stakeholders- Teachers, Children, Parents, Management, Civil society (Civil society- When school is involved with collaborative programs with external institutions). There are some kinds of stigma attached to counsellor and counselling practices. When counsellor calls children to meet, they become very conscious to go to the counsellor even to have general interaction. Some responded that if a child goes to a dedicated counsellor, the child might think he has negativity in him. A counsellor said that rapport building takes much time. Children are afraid because they have misinformation about counselling. Class 1st to 5th children know counsellor as a Lifeskills teacher and not as a counsellor. It he...
