Reflection on the teaching perspectives

After a weekend at Georgia International Leadership Conference (GILC) (here), it came back to me that not all the learning contents are to be taught using same methodology. Neither one size fits all students nor all subject contents are meant to be taught in one way. From my in-class experiences at EDHI classes, I gathered that for a subject like management information systems (which essentially rests on the knolwledge of certain principles which have been optimized for applications), such content is best taught in the "Transmission mode" and the teacher needs to focus on transferring the content to the students. Making sure that students can implement the taught content on "as is presented" basis.

This ofcourse sharply contrasts with the content that focuses on encouraging the students to start thinking independently. Topics (including business, management, sciences, math, engineering, etc) by nature grow based on independent thoughts of the learner.
