Chapter 1: IntroductionBackgroundOnce, Nelson Mandela, the South African Noble Laureate stated that “education is the most powerful weapon to change the world” (Biswas, 2009). He further stated that education is the cure of all the ills as it play most important role on the development of the country’s economic growth and also pushed down the social culture and political reforms. In this we discuss the level of education provided in the rural area of Punjab, and it also investigates for the purpose of balancing the requirement to balance the modern and traditional methods of education for ensuring best education to the students. Idea of this dissertation is influenced from the experience which I get after visiting two schools in the rural area of Punjab.On the basis of my experience as a student of this coursework, I am interested in conduct research in the context of methods and approach used in the current education system in the rural areas of India. This research paper allowed me to use my skills, and I also enjoy the challenge to work with the different experts and analyze their statements. This research is conducted for all those individuals such as parents, teachers, and institutions who want to analyse the quality of the education system in the rural areas of theIndia provided to the students, and this also highlight the efforts of government of India in lieu Indian education. As an education leader, I mainly lead the readers of my coursework paper, and as an education leader I mainly concentrate on the methods of the teaching which must be followed in the present education system. The main purpose of this study is to provide the deep understanding of requirement of bothtraditional method of teaching and modern method of teaching in rural areas of Punjab (State in Northern India). This paper discusses the need for balance between the traditional & modern methods of teaching, and how this balance might improves the rural education system of India.This report presents the deep understanding related to the educations methods used by the educational institutions in the rural areas of the Punjab.

The actual question of this paper is the required balance between the traditional andmodern teaching methods in the schools established in rural areas of India. As defined by this paper, only traditional method of teaching is not sufficient. These schools require the combination of both the methods in terms of achieving the goal of better education for theirstudents. An overview of the school system in IndiaThe term education system includes public schooling and not private schooling, and it includes classes from kindergarten to high school programs. Generally, schools or schools district are considered as smallest recognized form of education system and countries are the largest. What is the problem or Issue?Education system in India is classified into two sectors that are private sector and thepublic sector, and both the sectors engaged in providing educational facilities to the children’s. It must be noted that, public sector is controlled by the Government of India and funds related to this sector are coming from almost three levels that are central level, state level, and local level. Under different articles of Indian constitution, free and compulsory education is given as the fundamental right to children between the age of 6 and 14. Currently, the ratio of private sector schools and public sector schools is 7/5.The main issue faced by Indian educators is that all the digital technologies are used for developing the urban education system in India, but rural education system is generally neglected. Almost 65% population of the India is resided in the rural areas, and education system of rural areas deserves more attention in comparison of the urban areas. In the rural area of Punjab, there is tremendous increase in the number of secondary and senior secondary schools during the period of 1971-2009, but still education quality in these schools is not acceptable ((Shodhganga, n.d.).In case of Punjab also quality of education is not satisfactory because it was only 76.7%. State fails to achieve its national level growth in the education sector in the year 2001-2011.Increase of literacy rate in Punjab was very low, which means it is even below the increase in national average (9.21%) (Walia, 2014).My Story: Two SchoolsI am SabiaBhullar and my birthplace is India (Punjab). My primary education and secondary education was completed in metropolitan city of India. After completing my education I got the job in teaching sector. While studying in the private school, I got all the facilities which are required to get the best education. When I was teaching in high school in metropolitancity, I got a chance to visitSabia Bhullar (bhul0009)Page 7

to rural schools to get some ideas regarding how the students are being taught in the rural schools, so I choose the Samana village of Punjab, where my friend lives..I visited the Government Model School in the Samana village of the Punjab with one of my friend resides in the same village. I was completely shocked to find that a student of the school does not even have basic general knowledge such as names of the districts, parliamentary and assembly constituencies of Punjab, etc. It was very difficult for the students to understand even some basic concepts. Infrastructure and administration of the school was good as there were sufficient basic facilities such as proper classrooms, black boards, drinking water, etc., but school does not have any access to technology such as computers, and other digital tools. Teachers and other administrative staff of the school were used proper traditional methods. All these things raise serious concern in my mind about the quality of the education provided to the students resides in the rural areas of Punjab. However, I also visited to the Verma’s Primary School in the Bolewal village with the same friend, and it was unbelievable for me to see the unremarkable knowledge of the students studied in that school. They were not only aware about names of the districts and parliamentary and assembly constituencies of Punjab, but also know the names of some famous English and Hindi writers. Teachers in this school using E-teaching methods to educate the children’s and also various other technologies access is provided to the students. I noticed that both the schools have similar infrastructure and administration staff but still there is huge difference between the knowledge of the students.This experience of visiting the government school was most knowledgeable experience of my life, because it taught me about the facilities required by these schools and what changes are must in terms of ensuring the best future for the students.A need for balance (significance of the research)After examining the situations of both the schools, I think there is need for improving the quality of the education, it is necessary to balance both the methods of teaching that are modern and traditional methods. Students must have access to technology and other digitaltools.As per the British council Report (2014), education system of India still depends on the traditional method. There is need to combine the methods used in the traditional teachings with the methods used in the modern teachings for a better and advanced education system. However, there is difference in the opinion of people I personally ask in this context (combination of traditional and modern teaching methods). Some of them believe that traditional methods are best methods for the purpose of providing education to the Sabia Bhullar (bhul0009)Page 8
