If India wants instant outcomes, fix every college and university instantly.

Children will take another 20 years to add value to the economy. How to? 1) Terminate all rote learning content , and provide them with pedagogically sound recent content. Let content be the syllabus. 2) Provide personalized education, and address learning deficit of students. 3) Bring projects under peer review, and make the project open access if it's not patentable. 4) Ask the teacher to unlearn almost everything they learned during schools and colleges. Use evidence, evidence, and evidence . 5) Make exams analytical and cue-based , not the reproduction of the text of books. 6) Pay the teacher well, so that teachership will be treated as a respectable job.
