I sometimes do grudgingly agree that when it comes to self-expression Indian Education system need to put in some more work. Memorization is important,but is it all ? Is education feeding facts and is that complete in itself?
Kindly take a look at this website http://www.freewebs.com/amazingkidstories/index.htm which publishes kids writing online.I look at kids from other countries writing here and it hurts that we simply aint to that level yet.But I find that Indians who are schooled abroad are not behind in any way. You can see kids of Indian origin doing a great job here!
We need to integrate more technology into our classrooms.
I ask my students to publish their writing here (It is free) and also insist that they read the ones posted there. You should have a look too and leave encouraging feedback for the kids.
