Revitalize, prioritise education in line of job, research & knowledge
Dr. Forqan Uddin Ahmed, Former Deputy Director General and Commandant, Ansar VDP Academy: Education is a basic need for mankind as all as human resource development. In the present world, there is an ample scope for education. There are different branches and components in the educational arena and they are: general education, scientific education and technical education and so on. Every branch or subject is equally important for the development of mankind.
In our country education is not in an optimum standard or position. From primary level to higher education, minimum standard is not maintained here. In 80% institutions, teachers and students do not have their endeavour to reach the desired goal. Nobody is found serious in their respective profession to attain their knowledge and develop skill. Teachers only think how to increase the rate of pass percentage by fair means or foul. Standard is not a factor to them. They do not even think of obtaining distinction marks, extraordinary result or some sorts of brilliant success.
Both students and teachers are being satisfied with an average result only. If somehow a degree is obtained, a student gets a social position. By the capacity of so called degree, ours students are being employed in the nation-building activities. Having no knowledge, our students are obtaining the degree and getting the opportunity of better employment in the field of teaching, management, administration, business and also in the national and multinational financial sectors. Consequently, advancement is hindered and development becomes a barrier to the nation. In educational institutes, an adequate number of teachers remain busy with tuition business and coaching-based activities. They do not attend classes in time and are not serious about the job what they are supposed to perform. Moreover performance evaluation is not made from students or authorities concerned. Teachers do not make any lesson plan, progress report or any checklist of scheduled works. They do not guide their students properly and pay any attention for their improvement.
