CONCLUSIONS
LACK OF PERSONALITY DEVOLOPMENT
Personality and Character are more important than mere
Textbook Literature taught in classrooms.

INEFFICIENT EVAUATION SYTEM
The current system is Quantitative and is focused on the ability
of a student to memorize something and reproduce the same in
their papers.

LESS EMPHASIS ON CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION
The courses and coursework is generally monotonous, dull
and often not comprehensible.

IMPLICATIONS OF THE ROTE LEARNING
PROCESS
Rote learning is becoming a necessary evil of sorts, and
need for meaningful learning of concepts is felt.
On the whole, we have identified that
majority of the drawbacks within the current
education system can be resolved by adopting
a more practical approach that incorporates
Qualitative Assessment and Conceptual
Learning
RECOMMENDATIONS
LACK OF PERSONALITY DEVOLOPMENT
Students need to be groomed and trained to be ready to
face the harsh realities of the real world.

INEFFICIENT EVAUATION SYTEM
A more Qualitative approach should be followed

LESS EMPHASIS ON CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION
Making learning a Hands-On experience.

IMPLICATIONS OF THE ROTE LEARNING
PROCESS
Emphasis should be made on conceptual learning.
