Description
The title of this book, “NEP 2020: Navigating Skill-Oriented Education,” reflects the central theme of the policy—moving away from a traditional exam-driven and memory-based learning approach towards a skill-centered, learner-friendly, and holistic model of education. The term navigating is significant here, for it highlights the practical challenges, opportunities, and responsibilities of different stakeholders—teachers, administrators, students, policymakers, and parents—in successfully steering the vision of NEP 2020 into reality.
One of the most revolutionary aspects of NEP 2020 is its focus on skill development and employability. In today’s world, knowledge without application is incomplete. Students are no longer required to only memorize concepts but are expected to apply them meaningfully in diverse contexts. The policy emphasizes critical thinking, creativity, problem-solving ability, communication skills, digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and vocational training as essential tools to prepare learners for life and work. This shift places the learner at the center of education, encouraging experiential learning and competency-based assessments.
