Pralhad Joshi calls for experiential learning over rote memorisation

Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi, speaking at a CBSE event in Delhi's Dwarka, said rote learning should give way to experiential learning, warning that students and parents have become fixated on marks. Inaugurating an experience centre at CBSE's integrated office complex, he said the pressure to score leaves children short on confidence, and linked the trend to coaching classes' growing clout.
