Indian Education System in Global Era: Problems and Solutions

Dr. Sheveta Sehgal

Abstract: Education is a significant tool that aids in the creation of a well-developed and progressive nation. Especially in a developing country like India with a population of more than 136 crores, education is the key to a better standard of living and a prosperous future. The world of education was reeling from the prolonged closure of schools caused by the Covid-19 pandemic when the year 2022 clocked in. New challenges appeared when the schools reopened and students and teachers returned to campus. Students are getting increasingly addicted to technology and some of the direct consequences of this addiction are excessive screen time, lack of physical activity, lack of in-person socializing, and attention deficit. These signs were all the more apparent when schools reopened in 2022 and children returned to classrooms after excessive indulgence in technology. The greatest challenges facing the education system cannot, in fact, include the use of technology. However, a lack of technology causes disruption, discipline issues, and disinterest. India's 21st-century modern-age education system is made up of a new method of learning that includes online education, skill-development programmes, digital learning platforms, a grading system, the use of educational technology in the classrooms, and a recently introduced New Education Policy.
