BIT
Education System
Conventional Teaching System
Conventional classroom system treats all students the same, emphasises rote memorisation and limits impetus towards individual learning.
Conventional Assessments
Tests rote memorisation, while important industry skills demand conceptual understanding, analysis, synthesis, application and innovation.
A memory based educational system is irrelevant.
Instead of supporting concept/skill based education, current academic system is impeding it.
National surveys show that 90% of engineering graduates are unfit for employment.
