Being truly educated requires courage to break the artificial barriers between subjects, which prefer independent thinking, creativity, research and new inventions instead of becoming another memory hard disk in the world, he added.

Education must draw out all that is unique in students and individuality must be promoted so that students stepping out of campus and entering professional world will not be a hard disk of memories or storehouse of information, but they will be powerhouse of infinite creativity, the Lt Governor further added.

The Lt Governor impressed on the Universities, educational institutions and the teaching community to adapt to a future-oriented learning approach that goes beyond the classrooms and prepares the students for the future challenges and opportunities.

“In this era of acceleration, teachers’ role has expanded. They are not just information providers or a medium to complete the syllabus. Teachers are artisans and they need to shape minds and consciousness of new generation,” the Lt Governor said.

Under the guidance of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji, National Education Policy is empowering our students to succeed in machine-dominated world and it is blended with the value system to ensure perfect balance in inner and outer growth of every student, the Lt Governor said.

“Education should awaken the inner curiosity, critical thinking, it should trigger more questions in classrooms and provide the courage to walk on an unknown path. Through NEP 2020 efforts are being made to ensure that our classrooms reflect the real world instead of four walls,” he observed.

Speaking on the recent technological advancements, the Lt Governor said it will have transformative impact on the society.

“Technology is moving faster than ever before and it is increasingly transforming the way we live, socialize, travel and work. Our human capital is facing a completely different future and it is time that our classrooms and campus recognize the radical shift and create a new ecosystem,” the Lt Governor said.

He said, the classrooms and labs need to reinvent itself on the lines of National Education Policy, not only to maintain the competitive edge but also to remain relevant.

The change is also affecting the field of Humanities. The biggest challenge is to make the resolution of inclusive society and empowered individual a reality in the midst of rapid changes and bridge the digital divide in the society, he added.

“Challenge before us is to work on skills that will remain relevant in the future. We cannot imagine the world to 2050, but core skills like analytical, critical thinking, creativity, curiosity, individuality, originality, uniqueness, resilience and leadership will remain relevant,” the Lt Governor said.

The Lt Governor also appreciated the Vice Chancellor and faculty members of IUST for providing a conducive learning environment to the students and empowering them to contribute to nation building.

 

Speaking on the occasion, Prof. K Kasturirangan, Chairman, NEP Drafting Committee, congratulated the graduating students and lauded their spirit, enthusiasm and curiosity. Your mission of Higher learning with great passion should not end here. Never give up on your dreams and aspirations, he said.

Prof Kasturirangan commended the Lt Governor led UT Administration for taking unprecedented measures to bring reforms in the education system and implementing the National Educational Policy.

Prof Kasturirangan also highlighted the key role of universities and teachers in the effective implementation of NEP 2020.
