HIGHER EDUCATION AND THE ROLE OF COLLEGE TEACHERS
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
The foremost issue that is talked about when we discuss about rural college and rural college teachers and students, is that of lack of infrastructure and poor background of the students. Since the infrastructure is supposed to be poor and the students are assumed to be less equipped, the teachers tend to believe that they need not learn and pass on the contemporary knowledge. It is therefore a triangle, but the teacher is in the centre. Assuring quality beings and ends with teachers. We shall underlined this issue, while not forgetting that the other two points of the triangle too need to be addressed. 700- Degree granting Institutions (Universities) 35,500- Affiliated Colleges, 20 million-student Enrollment, Top-4 fields of study, 37 Arts, 19% Science, 18% Commerce and Management, 16% Engineering and Technology, With 801 universities and more than 39,071 affiliated colleges enrolling more than 20 million students, Indian higher education is a large and complex system. The structure of degree ranting institutions is cumbersome primarily due to "affiliation" and funding sources. More than 85% of students are enrolled in bachelor's degree programs with majority enrolling in three-year B.A., B.Com. or B.Sc. degrees. One-sixth of all Indian students are enrolled in Engineering and Technology degrees.
