Poor science and maths education (and English) accounts for 80 per cent of total students who fail in Tenth Board Examination. The low enrolment in science stream at higher secondary level and poor-quality education is a constraint in development of scientific manpower in the country. Science and Maths education would need special attention. We need to deliberate and find workable strategies for strengthening the quality of teaching–learning processes for better outcomes; innovations and diversity of approaches in matters of curricula, pedagogies and use of technology to improve the learning levels.

Vedic mathematics should be introduced in the curriculum. This is one of the ancient Indian science that can develop the Child's mathematical skills. People spend lot of money on imported methods like abacus. By enabling our children with vedic mathematics.. you will in turn develop lot of entrepreneurs. As most of the good entrepreneurs are good with numbers :)

Etymology means education through words and their source/origin. It must be applied in all subjects of all languages integrally or create a separate subject because in my own experience of studying for last 25 years i struggled to understand concepts in engineering,basic science,maths,polity,geography,etc because almost all words were either of foreign origin or source of the terms used were not given in the book which killed my curiosity. Best universities and schools globally use etymology.

Cont.- Students are taught "pi" but aren't taught how Aryabhata derived it. They teach heron's formula to find area but not Brahmagupta formulas. We are n't taught works of Bhaskara and Bhaskara II and Varahamihira and others works . Instead we are taught of Thales, Euclid's and Pythogoras works. These works Indian have early derived. Even gravity was identified by Aryabhata . But we learn in the place of newton's. Baudhyana gave pythogorean triplets earlier than Pythogoras. Continiued...

We had great mathematicians and scientists.But we're not taught about their great works. Instead we ape towards western works like of Euclid,Thales and Pythogoras.We are not taught about Indian techniques and works of Aryabhatta,Bhaskara and others.Foreign countries utilizes our geniuses knowledge.Its a humble request,please don't teach the foreign techniques.Indian techniques are to be taught. They are better,vast and faster way to solve problems. This is way to create more Aryabhatta in india.

New knowledge should not be meant by applying western culture again on Indian excellent intellectual. Our old & gold ancient knowledge of Ved Purans Yoga and Spiritual knowledge should be apply in new ways on all education institutes.

One way to cultivate new teaching techniques n technology is once again to strengthen NVS & KVS .These can play role of model schools.challenges before these institutions (1) they need new rooms for setting JUNIOR MATHS & SCIENCE LABS (2) They need electicity back up.(3) mote over teachers need to go rigorous practice n training to be competent n confident in teaching through these new techniques n technology.
