New Delhi : (Agency). Famous educationist and Prof. (Dr.) Meena Jha of Central Queensland University of Australia has said that the future of the Indian education system is very bright and the children here are very hardworking.
Dr. Jha, who has obtained M.Tech and PhD in Computer Science after B.Tech, said this during an interview. She said that by considering IIT as a role model in the Indian education system and moving forward, the education here will further improve.
In response to a question, Dr. Jha said that the education system in foreign countries is based on serious analysis and implementation whereas the Indian education system has become examination based.
