Need for value education in 21st century according to NEP2020
The popular concept of modern education, particularly higher education has changed adversely. The objectives seem to be coaching the students for passing the university examinations with good marks giving them a few vocational skills to fit them in to a job. The higher education in Science and Technology, which majority of the students opt for tries to equip them for materialistic development, which is mistaken for ‘progress’. The engineers, doctors, scientists, economists and men of commerce change very much in the name of civilization and they advance materialistically but they don’t ‘progress’. Change and materialistic development do not signify human progress and the progress of the society. The higher education is teaching the youth to live by machine and gadgets, not by the universal human values like truth, non-violence, love and compassion. Life has become so artificial and materialistic that the young men and women have begun to think whether they need any value system at all that will guide them to the right way of living. If this doubt becomes a conviction life will not be human and our society cannot be called a humane society. Materialistic development and crimes has begun to grow together. Technology goes handy to the criminals and often we read in the newspapers about high-tech-cheating, high-tech-forgery and high-tech-serial killing.
The aim of value education in higher education is obvious; it is to enable the youth to become admirable young men, men of scientific temper and human spirit, men deeply patriotic, men who can rise above the deceptive propaganda of many politicians and separatist forces. It also aims to identify need of value Education in 21st century according to NEP 2020. The author wants to suggest some strategies to inculcate values among youth according to NEP 2020.
Key words: Value Education, 21st century skill, NEP2020, Modern Education etc.
