The author contends that this exam-centric approach, rooted in historical and colonial influences, prioritizes scores and memorization over creativity, innovation, and practical skills, leaving graduates ill-prepared for the modern world. Through personal anecdotes and examples, the text illustrates the detrimental consequences of this system on students, teachers, and rural communities, including a lack of fundamental skills, migration, and wasted potential. Lama's work proposes a shift towards holistic, skill-based learning by examining global reforms and suggesting concrete solutions for a more student-centered and future-ready education system in Nepal.Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'
