Let students play with Vedic math

Hyderabad - The biggest monsters are examinations and syllabus in an
education system which promotes learning by rote, observes Dilip
Mukerjea, a mind mapper. In the city for a session on learning better
at BITS, Hyderabad, the author of a sizeable number of books on
memory skills, he spoke of a roadmap for Indian students in a world
of exponential competition.
"Show me one system where students learn all the parameters of
vocabulary and memory. Across the IITs and IIMs, all the institutes
promote learning by rote," points out Dilip who runs 'Braindancing
International' in Singapore. The recently released Programme for
International Student Assessment (PISA) report on performance of 73
countries ranked India second-last. "There has to be a change in the
curriculum as well as methods of teaching," opines the author of
'Unleashing Genius'.
"There is no such thing as a learning disability. The deficiency is
in the teachers as there is no single model of teaching which fits
the needs of all. Everyone has a similar capability to learn, what is
important is the way people use their skills to correlate and
remember what they have learned," explains Dilip who prescribes a
visual method of remembering information. Stressing the importance of
note-making, the educationist observes that a 'map' format of writing
notes helps recall and recollect better.
In a country where marks define the student, the teacher of memory
skills believes that "evaluation should not be a judgment on pass or
fail but a continuous process." The process of developing memory
comes through the three-step mantra prescribed by the mind mapper-
learning with comprehension, reviewing it and reapplying what is
learned.
"In a country where Vedic Mathematics originated, the subject has not
been given enough importance. It should be developed into a game as?
part of the curriculum through which students can master arithmetic
skills," suggests the man who has developed his own technique to aid
those looking for enhanced skills for remembering and recollection.
"Good teachers are not valued in the present system and many of them
need to relearn to teach. If the present system of education
continues, India will never be able to top the PISA ranking. There is
a need to rework the curriculum and the way it is taught to encourage
proper comprehension. Like I said in BITS, beautiful campuses alone
cannot guarantee good education," quips Dilip before he leaves for
Chennai for another session on decoding the mind and its
machinations.

About the terrorist Goon Squad:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
As everyone knows, a goon is a bully or thug who terrorizes or tries
to do away with opposition.
"Myself, Mallu. Yourself?" (V. Bhattathiri) <KalluM...@gmail.com>
tries his best to be a bully -- telling others what and when to post,
where to post and where not to post, deliberately publishing lies
about others, stalking and abusing them with hate speech -- but fails
miserably. He is really stressed out, and like his lap dog Prem
Thomas (who currently posts as "P. Rajah" <us...@this.com>, and issues
*death threats* to people), is priming himself for conditions such as
stroke and heart disease. Others in the Goon Squad include
Dayashankar M. Joshi "DMJoshi" <jos...@gmail.com> who displays
unquestioning obedience to Goon Squad thugs, and the instigator who
posts as "Bholu" <bh...@hotmail.com>
The Goon Squad currently post most of their abuse through eternal-
september.org and by writing someone elses name or handle in the
"From:" header -- their favorite now is "fana...@gmail.com" (note
the extra "b" and "gmail.com") to make it appear as if the posts are
from "fan...@aol.com", who has been a regular poster for many years.
