PRESIDENTS COLUMN
In the modern era of
technology, ref inement in
teaching learning process
using latest technological
development is bound to be of
immense value to our
educational systems in general
and technical education system
in particular. The concept of
Learner Centered Teaching
Methodology is getting nation-wide-attention.
Knowledge explosion has meant three things
namely, research and development, automation
and the spread of higher education. Traditional
institutions and teaching methods are gradually
diminishing and work roles are changing based
on parameters set by knowledge explosion. R&D
has involved the creation of new knowledge or the
extension of old knowledge in novel ways.
Automation has led to implanting of knowledge into
machines. Education has been equated with
implanting knowledge into minds.
There is a need to redesign and reorientknowledge as a multi-dimensional force which can
take its form in sophisticated scientific theories.
Knowledge can be invested and applied in a
multiplicity of ways. It has been realized that
technology is far more than tools and machines.
The techniques associated with the use of those
tools and machines can be amazingly knowledge-
laden. The proof for this is the extensive use of
Information technology in almost all the fields. In
economic terms, education is human capital
investment of a l l k inds. A hol ist ic sense of
knowledge, involving not only the creation of newknowledge but also the implanting of knowledge in
machines and minds, is central to an understanding
of our society. Globalization has brought in its wake
an emphasis on consumer concerns, like quality
assurance, need for continuous up gradation of
quality at reduced cost, durability and variety etc.
In view of the enormous skilled manpower, India
may become a significant production centre of the
world. Economic restructuring heavily depends on
the performance of technology driven industrial and
services sectors. For competitiveness, adoption
and adaptat ion of modern technologies and
Role of Teaching Learning in Today's Worldmanaging them with advanced managerial tools are
essential. This has placed significantly increased
demands on technical manpower than has beenthe case till today.
The present exponential rate of change in societyhas drastically lowered predictability and increased
uncertainties. Almost everyone is convinced that
future is not an extrapolation of the present andthe past. Under these circumstances, avoiding
mistakes is as important as being innovative.
Oppenheimers statement that science andtechnology have a symbiot ic relat ionship is
certainly true. But science is preoccupied with
understanding and explaining, while engineering
is concerned with doing, realizing and
implementing. Thus, the aim of future engineering
education should be the integration of knowledge,
skills, understanding and experience. It has been
noted that Space, Computer, Energy and
Communication will be the main technology drivers
in the near future.
Therefore it is emphasized that subject-
independent design methodology should be
developed wherein the student understands the
mult i -d imensional i ty of real l i fe problems.
Engineering activi ty, like the other great profession
of medicine, is prescriptive in nature and in its
practice, diverse skills are required. For e.g., a
capacity to work in overlapping areas between
disciplines and a flair for self- learning new skills.
An engineer of the future has to emerge as a
creative problem solver. Mere analytical skills are
not enough. An engineering design integrates
mathematics, basic sciences, engineering sciences
and complementary studies in developing elements,
systems and processes to meet specific needs. It
is a creative, iterative, open-ended process subject
to constraints which may be governed by standards
to varying degrees depending upon the discipline.
These constraints may relate to economic, health,
safety, environmental, social or other pertinent
factors. As such refinement in Teaching Learning
process is pivotal for the modern Technical
Education.
