As a result most of the parents who are internet accessed have raised their voices of not to re-open the schools and have opposed sending their kids to the school back as long as a preventive vaccine for COVID19 disease is not developed. 

The parent associations have initiated the online petition platform with some key arguments as follows. One online petition is going on at change.org. 

  • The parent association have termed the Government decision of reopening the schools as forcing their kids into fire play and dumping the children into the challenging lives.
  • Instead, parents have opted for online classes though it has got enormous technological issues as because they are more concerned about the health of their kids.
  • Virtual Learning is one of the most aspired options of parents for the rest of the academic session during this pandemic based on the evidence that the number of private schools has claimed that they are doing good in the same domain. The virtual learning is a software-based learning platform as same as normal online classes.
  • The parents argued that all educational institutions were closed down before the Lockdown 1.0 was not even declared nationwide and where even the outbreak of the infections was less in number, but now it seems worst, so what is the point of reopening the schools.
When it comes to Preschool the challenges become even tougher, as these children are very small and we cannot encourage children to follow the screen for online classes. Many specialists have raised concern that online class is not advisabe for preschoolers. Even if we do the online classes forcefully for these little children, we cannot expect their concentration and focus. The good and safe option available for preschoolers is Guided homeschooling program, which can be facilitated by the help of the parents.

Seven key differences between Parenting in India and Dutch:

 - A Dutch mother, Ivana, recently shared her experiences living in Mumbai for nine years, highlighting seven key differences between parenting in India. She emphasises that neither approach is "better" or "worse," but rather they involve different trade-offs.  Key Differences in Parenting: According to her viral reflections on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWJv7RLDM-z/), the primary contrasts include: * Community vs. Solo Marathon: In the Netherlands, parenting often feels like a "solo marathon". In Mumbai, she experiences a "real village" where family, neighbours, and the building community are always available to help. * Independence vs. Interdependence: Dutch culture raises children to be "fierceley independent," such as cycling to school alone at age eight. Indian parenting focuses on interdependence and being part of a larger, supportive system. * Child-Friendly Public Spaces: She notes that children in India are acce...

The Secret to Lifelong Genius: Understanding Fluid vs. Crystallized Intelligence:

  The Science of Lifelong Intelligence: Fluid vs. Crystallized The Science of Lifelong Intelligence: Fluid vs. Crystallized Why is it that a 20-year-old can master a new app in minutes, yet a 60-year-old is often the one you turn to for a complex business strategy or a nuanced historical perspective? The answer lies in a foundational psychological theory proposed by Raymond Cattell in the 1960s (Cattell, 1963). He discovered that human intelligence isn't just one single "score"; rather, it is divided into two distinct systems: Fluid Intelligence (Gf) and Crystallized Intelligence (Gc) (Cattell, 1971). 1. Fluid Intelligence (Gf): The "Engine" Think of Fluid Intelligence as your brain's raw processing power. It is the capacity to think logically and solve problems in entirely novel situations, independent of what you’ve learned in school (Simply Psychology, 2024). The Mecha...

History of MBBS: How the MBBS Became India’s Definitive Medical Degree

 - Ever wondered why Indian doctors are uniquely identified by the four-letter acronym MBBS? While most of the world uses MD or other titles, India’s medical degree has a fascinating history rooted in colonial identity, educational reform, and a drive for professional equality.  Here are eight key insights into how this unique degree shaped the landscape of Indian medicine. 1. The Birth of the Name "The 'MBBS' acronym is uniquely Indian in its modern dominance. While the world uses various titles for medical practitioners, it was Bombay University that officially inaugurated the MBBS degree in South Asia during a pivotal Senate meeting in December 1905." 2. The 1835 Milestone "Formal modern medical education in India began in 1835 with two landmark institutions: Medical College, Calcutta, and a medical school in Madras.

MONTESSORI PHILOSOPHY AND HOME SCHOOLING

In the previous article, we discussed the Classical method of homeschooling. And in this article, we are discussing the Montessorian Model of homeschooling. Montessori has been widely recognized by a large section of pre-schooling aspirants in the world. It emerged for the first time by Italian doctor, most prominent personality of her times, Dr Maria Montessori in the late 19th and early 20th century in Italy. Her empirical enquiry about quality learning of the child with lots of efforts enabled her model to be recognized and practised by most of the pre-school settings today. This short write up attempts to simplify how the Montessorian approach of education can be converted to homeschooling curriculum.  Few aspects of Montessori in Homeschooling:   1.      Philosophical perspectives of Montessorian education: The Montessorian Model of education is fully based on independence and freedom assuming the children having a unique potentiality on t...

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...
