Read the following paragraph carefully and answer the following questions based upon your understanding of the given paragraph


Our school syllabi, teaching methods and examinations are, with a few exceptions, based on encouraging conformism and rote learning. Questions by students are deterred for several reasons. The teacher does not have the confidence to answer the question. Or, the question although a good one, may be irrelevant to the subject matter in the syllabus. Or the class is too big for the teacher to be able to establish a one-to-one rapport with each and every pupil. And, of course,, there is a shortage of time for questions as the syllabus is crammed with too much matter. This time-crunch is often held as the prime culprit. With syllabi overloaded with the subject matter, harassed teachers addressing huge classes and many outside interruptions like bandhs and holidays, who has time to answer pupils’ questions or to encourage a new line of thinking? It will take a long time for our law-makers to get their priorities right and encourage more schools, smaller classes and syllabi that emphasize comprehension rather than an excess of information.
