Re: FW: [MTC Global] Secrets to being a better student

Everybody wants to go heaven but nobody wants to die. That's the situation with students today. They want the best of the jobs & brands but they don't want to prepare for it. I completely agree when my respected friends here say that students hardly show any interest or willingly participate in industry integrated activities.

Warm regards,
Balaji Rao

Education is a progressive discovery of our ignorance

We shall continue to debate on this issue as long as we do not appreciate the difference between 'education' and 'training'.

The 'student' is neither an 'apprentice', nor an 'understudy', nor a 'mentee', nor an 'intern'.

Beyond the normal principles of 'goal-setting' and 'reinforcement' there are few similarities between educating a student and training an athlete. If we are 'TRAINING" a student, pedagogical principles would be the same: Setting S.M.A.R.T goals; Modelling; Grand visualization of future; Continuous feedback & corrective coaching; Incentivisation through expansion of self-efficacy and purpose; and Development of values to keep cool under duress or success.

While we all discuss as to how to improve the employability of the student. We need to address the issue viz. Is the student interested in putting the necessary efforts from his side.
We need to  address this issue. Typically for e.g. Students are not interested in guest lectures and /or workshops conducted by leading industry persons. They need to be incentivized to attend these sessions

Dear Prof. Bholanath ji,

Thank you so much for addressing the key issues to get consensus on what needs to be done, what is the information required and who shall do it.

  • The tripartite experiment by a leading Auto Industry is quite an inspirational one for diploma engineers,since it combines the best practices and achieves high ratings on Employability scale providing win-win situation for student, parents, OEM and its Ancillaries...
  • "Yes! You can train a student, just like you would train an athlete.”. . education, skills and winning attitude.
  • OEM hosted the program approved by open university in association with an educational institute to provide appropriate blend of class-room learning techniques and teaching pedagogies well supported by on-the-job-training business model.
  • Vibrant campus right their in future organizational environment and culture.

Thanks once again for student-centric approach,

With warm regards,

i second the opinion by Dr. P H Waghodekar.

Education helps in overall development of an individual.Prepares an individual for life and help him/her live in harmony with the environment .

Training is a process of preparing an individual for performing a specific task.

Educational Institutions, particularly professional & tertiary  education ones are entrusted with doing both.

so in any good institute, the efforts are made through   curricular,co-curricular and extra-curricular activities to achieve both the  objectives .

For the teaching ,learning methodology & pedagogy, to achieve this,  We have   
lots of examples around us.

We can choose the best practices from IIMs,IITs, NITs & many other institutions and CUSTOMIZE them to suit our local needs depending on the kind of students ,institutional vision,availability of funds etc

This is the real challenge for a Leader in the academia today.

No. 


Student is not a trainee nor teacher a coach. Training pertains to developing skill in a certain narrow field to churn out trainee as expert in the field concerned. A group of trainees is homogeneous one namely they are charged with a common goal acquiring skill in a certain area say a turner, pattern maker,runner, long jump, disc throw, etc.

Whereas students come from different background, not necessarily having a common goal nor homogeneous inputs, save to pass through a certain exam. The outcomes of education are different surfacing at the end of one generation whereas training is expected to give desired performance in a related field in a short span.
