Management of Education
Author : Dr. A Joychandra Singh
Abstract :
Academic institution to a large extent depends on how its concept has been conceived, where dedicated intellectuals burn the night lamp to discover’ irrespective whether their discoveries have any meaning to the real world or not these intellectuals are very possessive of their independence and would do anything to preserve it.
A second concept is one of a custodian of society. Through schooling they ensure that the educate not only gets a degree but learns to behave and carry oneself according to the dictums of culture and social ethos.
There is yet a third and equally significant concept of academic institution which conceives it as an organization dedicated to perform its social responsibility by extending itself beyond, its four walls.
When societies were stable and change was slow, they were able to exude an air of tranquility and almost monastic withdrawal from the realities of life outside.
But in today’s world where the only thing that is constant is change, they cannot afford to isolate and live in. They should accept the burden of responsibility and pursue a course of action to solve these problems. They must not be the producers of change agents only, but themselves be the agent of change.
Academic neutrality is luxury that academic institutions cannot afford in India. They must indulge in functionally useful attempts to uplift management of education.
