Education in India & America

The ability to live a high-quality life is something that people can achieve through
education. Additionally, education make individuals simple to rule over while also
preventing them from becoming enslaved.
As we know, every country has education system for their people so that they can
develop the nation in a better way.

So, education system in India comprises four levels: pre-primary, primary,

secondary and senior secondary system; all these levels are well-structured and
developed to systemically introduce students to subject, develop their language and
cognitive skills and prepare them for higher education. After coming to Hawaii I came to
know that same education system USA have for their people, and they called it as
Elementary School, High School, Higher Education to help and develop the skill in
student.

In Indian education, we have 6 hours of classes continued in the same class and
there will be break for 30 minute after the 3 hours of lesson, Also we receive all the
homework on Saturday for all 6 subject so that by Monday we can give to teach.
But, as we see here in the USA, we have classes in the different building and rooms and
there will be break time to time so that we can go to another classes, and good part is
that we don’t have the strait 6 hours of classes.

The Indian education system gives equal value to knowledge-based learning as

well as co-curricular. Countries are now rigorously working on providing free access to
education. Nowadays, being in school isn’t the same thing as before. Every individual is
skilled in different fields and interests, with a due focus on the set curriculum. We need
a society that is more elevated towards a balanced personal and professional growth.

I got surprised that in class we can bring phone and use it and check their text
(Depends on the situation), Also, most of the studies happens on the computer and very
less on the paper, but in India we don’t bring phones in the class because it's not allowed
and if teacher knows you have phone then they will take that phone and give to the head
office for 2 days. Also, student do much work on the paper and not on the laptop or
computer.

Right now, Indian education system has come a long way from the old-school to
the new-age hi-tech academic institutions. The students in schools and colleges are not
just tested based upon their learning abilities, but also on their acquired knowledge and
skills, as well as their performance in extracurricular activities. This system is
implemented in order to emphasize the importance of the overall growth of the child to
broaden their horizons.

The academic institutions in India, be it primary, secondary, or higher

educational, are embracing advanced technologies in facilitating learning and bringing a
revolutionary change to the same-old classroom teaching. Many schools have brought
tablets into their traditional classrooms to make learning an engaging and interesting
process by teaching kids through digital applications. And as I know that this system is
already here in the USA, Also counted as one of the countries with the best education
system in the world, the USA education system offers a rich blend of diverse cultures
with world-class technologies and infrastructure.
As both of the country are trying their best to give the best education to their
people so that people can lead the world in the better way.
