One of the burning concerns of the present-day society pertains to education. A common belief among the teachers, students, guardians and governmental authorities is that the existing system of education is not apt enough to cope with the national needs and aspirations; educational efforts need to be transformed and improved. It is with this view that the present book has been written. It analytically and individually deals with the varied problems of education prevalent at all levels of education, be it primary, secondary or university levels in India. Various spheres of education, viz. Women Education, Adult Education, Education of Scheduled Castes & Scheduled Tribes, Teacher Education, Physical Education, Health Education, Religious and Moral Education and many more have been critically studied and evaluated. Further, the various political, technical and social impacts on education are examined. In addition, it presents an in-depth exposition of various objectives of education--Education for Democracy, Education for National and Emotional Integration, Education for International and Inter-Cultural Understanding. Also, it discusses the problems peculiar to the entire structure of education-- Administration and Supervision, Curriculum, Evaluation and Examination, Work Experience, Medium of Instruction. It studies problems peculiar to expansion of education--Universalisation, Diversification, Textbook Nationalisation, Standardisation, Indianisation and Modernisation. It is hoped that besides the students of education, the book will be useful for teachers, academicians, educational planners, researchers, administrators as well as for common readers. - from Amzon
