Look who’s doing their homework now

An amphitheater is just that. It is an open space, an arena where great ideas come loaded radioactive when heated debates take place and ultimately produce something valuable: the profound clarity.

To perform a test class is a daily struggle for the teachers, who can no longer in March, with a text and read passages or solve problems from there. Teachers, including heavyweights who have published their own works, confess that they have to study before taking the next academic year, students know can be brutal with your inquiry.

Last week, when R Narayanaswamy, Professor at IIM Bangalore, quoted a report by equity of a Canadian company that has condemned an Indian conglomerate; he was shocked to discover that some of his students had already read.

“Information is no longer exclusive. Earlier the teacher had a more now at a level they consider that the teacher is irrelevant, but we need to analyze, decode and display the larger picture of this, the teacher must set things become obsolete quickly, “said finance professor.

When Narayanaswamy began teaching in 1986, accounting standards had half a dozen full text of 50 pages. Today, the book is 2,000 pages with hundreds of other standards. Hours after the end of the day at the Indian Institute of Technology in Bombay, the power block at the other end of the university area is a hive of activity. IIT Mumbai Prakash Gopalan, who taught for nearly two decades, says that hardly ACRIM prepare before a conference. Impromptu going is not recommended, he says, for the conference can flow in either direction, can be repetitive and ear on the cover, you cannot do. “The students on this campus are very sharp and do not want to lose face. Because if that happens, no matter how the recovery process goes on the road can be bad,” he said.

Teaching as a vocation, is now a full time job, work over time, which was strictly a private sector have quietly infiltrated the profession. Take the case of Himanshu Rai, who teaches negotiation skills and leadership to the students of IIM Lucknow. Rai read on negotiating a variety of sources, and is often trade books when teaching leadership.

“I am preparing, so that students have a real win my class. I know I teach the brightest minds in this country, and preparation is crucial, “says Rai.

Ask Rekha Bahadur, viceprincipal HR College, and explains how students become animated when he discusses the Indian economy. He has taught since 1979, but feels the need to prepare for a variety of sources before the class. He says: “teacher is no longer an actor, but the side of the guide.” As he says, is not a lesson, you will take. It is a long conversation, it will be with his students.
