In recent years, the rise of coaching classes and private tuitions has become a prominent feature of the education landscape. Millions of students worldwide are seeking external help to supplement their formal education. This phenomenon reflects a deeper issue within traditional academic settings. That is the failure of knowledge transfer. Formal Education: Growing Reliance on Coaching Classes and Private Tuitions Schools and colleges should serve as the primary hubs for learning, but they are increasingly reliant on external support to achieve educational goals. This reliance indicates that something fundamental is missing in the way classrooms function today. To address this gap, we need a transformative shift in how knowledge is transferred within formal education. We should move away from outdated and passive learning methods and go toward a more engaging, effective and student-centered approach. By adopting a new paradigm that empowers students within academic settings, we can re...

Science of Knowledge Transfer: Insights from the Application of Motor Science

Image
The science of knowledge transfer encompasses a multidisciplinary field that investigates how knowledge module is transmitted, assimilated and applied across various contexts and domains . At its core, knowledge transfer involves the dynamic interplay between cognitive processes, social interactions and environmental space factors. Learnography: Science of Knowledge Transfer The laws of learnodynamics draw upon insights from motor science, student learnography, neuroscience of knowledge transfer , school dynamics and flow of knowledge transfer. Taxshila Model deals with organizational behavior to unravel the learnogram and mechanisms underlying knowledge transfer and optimize its effectiveness. Cognitive Mechanisms of Knowledge Transfer Cognitive science offers valuable insights into the cognitive processes involved in knowledge transfer, such as attention, memory and problem-solving. We can explore how pre-training students encode, store and retrieve information, as well as how they a...

Calculating Listening Hours: Formal Education from Kindergarten to Master's Degree

Image
Students are found tired and exhausted in the evening, when they return home from their schools. Why they look tired! Students spend seven periods in listening to the class teaching. Knowledge transfer is not good, when student learning is tested in the evening by analyzing knowledge transfer, brainpage modules and problem-solving learnography. Some questions are asked related to class teaching, but students are not ready to write the exact answers of the test questions. Formal Education: Students Listening Hours Amazing! Students tired and exhausted from listening? Additionally, they are given some assignments to write and practice in home learning. What can you expect from these tired, exhausted young brains for the extra learning at home under parental guidance? Pedagogical model is really amazing!

Schools are mostly running on the seven periods of teaching. Is period teaching , with its emphasis on student passive listening, truly equipping the students for success in the modern world or is it failing to unleash their full potential? Period Teaching: Student Listening Hours In the landscape of formal education, the traditional model of period teaching has long been the cornerstone of classroom instruction . Students spend countless hours sitting through lectures, presentations and discussions, with an estimated average of 15,000 listening hours from kindergarten to master's degree. However, as educational paradigms evolve and new research emerges, questions or doubts arise about the effectiveness of this period teaching approach in meeting the diverse needs of learners. Limits of Passive Learning At the heart of this debate in knowledge transfer lies the recognition that passive listening to teaching may have inherent some serious limitations. While this formal education i...
