When people think about their school days they often they that it induce a kind of nostalgia in their mind. Yeah, I must also admit that fact. It really give some good old memories.
But if you go deep into the memories you can find its mixed with a bunch of rubbish activities. By 'rubbish activities' i did not mean our childish activities, but something that i am going to tell you.
Have you ever been a class leader???
Well if you don't know who a class leader and what all his duties; i will tell you now. Most of the time the brightest mind in that class is selected as the class leader. His/her main duty is to note down the names of the problem makers in the class when teacher is not present in the class. Well, who all are these problem makers??? According to the Lower/ Upper primary school 'laws' the people who talks in a kind of loud voice with his mates when teacher is not present in the class during the class time are the problem makers. if any boy or girl is found to be violating the law, his name has to be written on a small piece of paper by the so called class leader. This has to be handed over to the teacher when he/she arrives. OR if he is not present it has to be handed over to a teacher in the nearby class.
Well this is the first rubbish thing according to me. Pupil has to be sit silently in the class for an hour or so, if he utter a sentence his name is carved onto a piece of paper which would later submitted to the 'law and order authorities'
The next of this kinda activity is the further steps related to the first activity.
When the teacher receives the 'most wanted' list, he comes to the class. By that time pupil will settle down. And most of the usual suspects were anxious thinking whether their name is there in the list or not. Then breaking the suspense, the teacher calls out the names loudly. Then each of the terrorists stands up. Then the show of the teacher stars. With a long, slim stick he starts to give them the medicine for their "disciplinelessness".
Well now thinking about such things I have no words to express. Is that discipline??
is this the way to teach students??
well there are much more rubbish things in our school. lets find it out later.

types of studies.........
everyone in this world definitely once being to school.
At the time of our schooling , we may follow different types of studying methods.
I have personally seen two main types of studying methods.
One is to study for examination purpose and the second is for our own understanding purpose.
Most of the students , most of the time follow the first method- Study exclusively for the examinations.
Previous year question papers and many guides aid for this purpose.
Even the students who are pursuing higher studies also follow the suit.
They are studying a few days before the exam date and study the most important, frequently asked type of questions and store it in the memory sectioned to store datas that needed to be active only for a few days. And on the D-day he pour everything on his head onto the paper. Thats it. Nothing will be there in the head after that.. Its all finished. He cannot recollect what he learned a few days back after the exam. Thats the specialty of this type of study.
only a few people are really interested in the second type of study method. this type of methods needs interest on the part of the student. He really wanted to be interested in the subject. He studies it for his own purpose, out of his own interest, to increase his knowledge. This kind of method requires lot of time, lot of patience. So most of the people prefers the first and easier method.
What is your style of study buddies??
