The problem of students underperforming in English is perennial.
Today, students are still subjected to, more or less, the same so-called education that we or our seniors experienced.
What is most telling is the discrepancy in academic performance across divisions as well as geographical areas.
Sustaining the development that has taken place in Bangladesh in the past 14 years and curbing inequality are key major challenges facing the economy owing to the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, said Planning Minister MA Mannan.
The government has to invest in good education; a meagre two percent of the nation’s GDP is not going to create a "Smart Bangladesh."
AI and edtech can be helpful for our students in an inclusive manner when the plans and programmes in this respect recognise the basic and long-standing weaknesses in the system.
The National Curriculum and Textbook Board has been stuck in the loop of controversies centring on school textbooks with academics and some NCTB officials blaming it on the negligence of writers and editors, insufficient training and lack of serious punishment for blunders.
Throughout 2022, education authorities focused on returning to a “normal” routine, making minimal adjustments mostly in organising public examinations.
