Education is a continuous process and not necessarily that a classroom has it all. Beyond the classroom is what one should look for.
Everyone needs to go to school where one can learn the 3 R’s and nothing beyond that. What a student does in a school is that they mug for marks and when they leave the portal of a school whatever is mugged is forgotten. A lot needs to be done to see that a student benefits from spending so many years in a school or college but the present system only goes to see who gets the highest marks.
The need of the hour is to groom a student in a direction where their aptitude takes them. And this is sadly lacking in today’s method of teaching.
Mass graduates and post graduates are produced year in and year out and these graduates and postgraduates have nothing to go by. What they have learnt is only to get that degree but that will not stand them in good stead as that is not what they are good at. .
One does not have to spend years in a college but branch out and look for avenues that will help a student in creating opportunities to give wings to their aptitude.
There could be budding photographers, actors, chefs, the list is endless. After graduation they could go for those studies that are aptitude oriented. Today we have a multitude of workers who are not good in what they are doing. They are there because they need a job for survival. Only if they went by their aptitude it would have been a totally different world for them.
Anyone who gets an opportunity to work in an area where their aptitude lies that job will be done with devotion ensuring quality benefiting those who employ them.
Parents should therefore keep an eye on their children and watch out for their aptitude and help them go where their aptitude directs them.
With Internet at our door step sky is the limit for choosing what one likes to do and that is how a student should advance in life.

Nice post, yes you are right on sharing here about what some students are apt to this time.Sad to say students this time always engage themselves to selfie,texting and not anymore reading books. So sad, like in my class as a Physics professor, many flunk every end of the school term for they refused to study hard. Sometimes I told myself better do not have this kind of advancement.Mane were gone astray because of technology abuse.I pity those who do not value the right education at all.
Young generations are not the same as before. They are totally lazy in terms of learning in the four corner of a room. The excitement is predominantly appealing in using modern gadgets. The hard way made it easy through modernization, but the learning process deteriorates through the years of advancement.
Classroom is the place where students build their characters. I think that it is the place where students find the atmosphere in which heredity seed flourishes with in fresh educational atmosphere. Beyond the class room conditions are different for the students because they have to face good or bad situation that effect green students memories to a greater extent.
I also have a great interest in encouraging my students to help others beyond our school community. In flipping my classes and offloading direct instruction to videos students watch for homework, I have created a large resource of free, publicly available instructional math videos.1 One of the most rewarding parts of this process has been discovering the reach of my voice and lessons; being able to teach students around the world who find and use my videos has been extremely fulfilling. So I asked myself: How can I share this experience with my students?
I believe that students reinforce their learning and gain deeper insight into material by teaching others. To that end, I ask my students to post to Socratic.org throughout the year. This forum encourages students to ask or answer calculus questions (as well as other subjects). Once a month, students are expected to answer a question posed by one of their classmates on Socratic as a formal assignment for class. Students have the option to complete additional response posts and, in doing so, reveal an interest beyond class requirements while displaying their initiative to go above and beyond.
I explain to students that their answers are not meant to be perfect — they are learning! A wonderful feature of Socratic is that all answers are editable, so that somebody from the Socratic community (or myself) is able to correct errors. The edits are reported back to the student, and a revision history is shown so that students can learn from updates.
