ACTION PLAN FOR INDIAN SCIENCE...




v  Teaching creative thinking with emphasis on active learning rather than passive or learning by rote.

v  Implementing teaching methods where every student participates (rather than simply listening to the instructor)

v  Emphasis on creative and critical thinking including inculcating the habit of question, develop opinions and the ability to think in a constructive way to improve upon the existing methods and designs.

v  Encouragement at the school level to try out new things, doing things in an unorthodox manner, whatever feasible and question the conventional methods.

v  Introduction of an appropriate system of evaluation of mentors by the mentees.

v  Periodic ‘health check-up’ of institutions by surveys on the opinion of the students, research scholars and faculty on the issues which affect their career and growth and all issues related to the cultivation of science.
