Special Learners!!

Only the brave dare look
upon the gray -
Upon the things which
cannot be explained easily,
Upon the things which often
engender mistakes,
Upon the things whose cause
cannot be understood,
Upon the things we must
accept and live with.
And, therefore only the brave
dare look upon the difference
without flinching - Richard H. Hungerford

There are so many students around who are suffering at the hands of Traditional teachers who are not willing to change their ways of teaching and approaching the child's genius!! Having visited couple of schools and meeting so many young minds and coaching so many of them, I feel clustrophobic when I see so many children falling prey to the old & traditional systems of our country.
Our Indian Curriculums are readily and very proudly making INTELLIGENT COMPUTERS out of our generation..........instead of making the INTELLIGENT THINKING HEADS who make those artificiallly intelligent IDIOT BOXES!!
We dont need computers who work on a set of instructions, we need souls who can think and have an individual rationale and logic!!
Very proudly the schools have their books printed and write "complied by the staff and the management of XYZ school".........But if one has to analyse the books they are sooooooooooo haphazardly compiled that its obvious that the child will have problems with literacy.

PLEASE THE INDIAN SYSTEM OF TEACHING IS MARRING THE GROWTH OF OUR CHILDREN .......THE EDUCATION IS SUPERB BUT THE METHOD OF TEACHING IT IS BELOW ZERO LEVEL.........DO SOMETHNG ABOUT IT!!
Let all the children develop - be it special learners (problem or gifted) or the normal average student!! let them all excel not only in the books but also in their holistic development!!
