“Acquiring skills is more important than securing good marks”
“Acquiring skills is more important than securing good marks”Acquiring skills is more important than securing good marks and certificates in education, said Dr. Harish Chandra Verma, Renowned Physics Professor of IIT Kanpur. Delivering lecture on concept of Physics through live practical to school children in KiiT International School on February 18, 2017.
Dr. Verma said, today science is an integral part of life and it cannot be seen in isolation.
He advised the students not to run after good marks and certificates by giving examples from his life. “Poor grade card or good grade card does not matter. Both are irrelevant. But the skill I had developed during my students career helped me. Getting good grade card and securing position in school, board and university examinations are temporary recognitions. But your worth depends on what kind of skills you develop. You have to develop confidence and competence to take challenges which can be very big or small”.
He stated. “You can achieve your goal by accepting challenges. Our examination system is not evaluating our inner capacity, giving too much importance on marks and grades”, Dr. Harish Chandra Verma stated. He advised students not to depend on solution books and tutor; rather they should try to solve the problem by themselves.
