    शिक्षाको स्वाधीनता र राजनीतिक मुक्तिको नयाँ दिशा

    Send us a text नेपालको उन्नति राजनीतिमुक्त शिक्षा र बौद्धिक स्वतन्त्रतामा निर्भर छ। मदन भण्डारी विश्वविद्यालयको दीक्षान्तले शिक्षालाई औपनिवेशिक मानसिकताबाट मुक्त गरी अनुसन्धान र स्वायत्ततामा जोड दिएको छ। संख्याभन्दा ज्ञान उत्पादन र शिक्षक सशक्तिकरण नै राष्ट्र निर्माणको वास्तविक आधार हो। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    नेपालमा शिक्षाको प्रणालीगत सुधार: नीति र अभ्यासको दूरी तथा असमानता - Sambedan Koirala

    Send us a text नेपालको शिक्षा प्रणालीमा ऐतिहासिक र संरचनागत विभेद कायम छ। नीतिगत सुधार भए तापनि निजीकरण र लैङ्गिक असमानताले सार्वजनिक र निजी विद्यालयबीच ठूलो खाडल सिर्जना गरेको छ। विशेषगरी दलित छात्रा र अपाङ्गता भएका विद्यार्थीले अवरोध झेल्नुपरेको छ। न्यायोचित शिक्षाका लागि लगानी र नियमन आवश्यक छ। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    विदेशी डिग्रीले नेपालनमा मान्यता पाउन सगरमाथा चढ्नुपर्छ

    Send us a text एउटा मात्र स्रोत, अर्थात् डा. एनडी लामा द्वारा लिखित "एकाधिकारबाट आधुनिकतातर्फ: नेपालमा डिग्री मान्यताको पुनरावलोकन" शीर्षकको लेखले नेपालमा विदेशी शैक्षिक उपाधिहरूलाई मान्यता दिने प्रणालीको आलोचना गरेको छ। लेखकले त्रिभुवन विश्वविद्यालय (त्रिवि) र राष्ट्रिय परीक्षा बोर्ड (एनईबी) द्वारा सञ्चालित वर्तमान समता प्रणालीलाई पुरानो, नियन्त्रणमुखी र अनावश्यक रूपमा कागजी प्रक्रियामा आधारित भन्दै आलोचना गरेका छन्। यस लेखले लेखकको आफ्नै र उनकी छोरीको शिक्षा मान्यता प्राप्तिको व्यक्तिगत संघर्षलाई उदाहरणको रूपमा प्रयोग गर्दै, जीईडी (GED) जस्ता अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय रूपमा स्वीकृत विकल्पहरूलाई पनि कसरी अस्वीकार गरिन्छ भन्ने स्पष्ट पारेको छ। समाधानका लागि, लेखकले स्वतन्त्र मूल्याङ्कन एजेन्सीहरू र राष्ट्रिय योग्यता संरचना (NQF) मा आधारित आधुनिक अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय मापदण्डहरू अपनाउन सुझाव दिँदै, शिक्षा मन्त्रालय अन्तर्गत राष्ट्रिय योग्यता मान्यता परिषद् (NQRC) स्थापना गर्ने प्रस्ताव गरेका छन्। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    शिक्षा सुधार र उद्यमशीलता: नेपाल फर्काउने बाटो

    Send us a text डा. एन.डी. लामाको लेख "शिक्षा सुधार र उद्यमशीलता: नेपाल फर्काउने बाटो" ले नेपालको शिक्षा प्रणालीमा सुधार र उद्यमशीलताको प्रवर्द्धन मार्फत देशको विकास सम्भव हुने तर्क प्रस्तुत गर्दछ। लेखकले विद्यार्थी पलायन रोक्न नियन्त्रणकारी नीतिहरू भन्दा गुणस्तरीय शिक्षा आवश्यक रहेको कुरामा जोड दिएका छन्। एनओसी (No Objection Certificate) रोक्ने, फेसबुक प्रतिबन्ध लगाउने, वा क्रिप्टोलाई गैरकानूनी बनाउने जस्ता सरकारी कदमहरूले देशलाई अगाडि बढाउन नसक्ने उनको भनाइ छ। जापानको दोस्रो विश्वयुद्धपछिको आर्थिक पुनर्निर्माणबाट पाठ सिक्दै, नेपालले पनि उत्पादनमा गुणस्तर, अनुशासन र उद्यमशीलतालाई प्राथमिकता दिनुपर्ने सुझाव दिइएको छ। अन्तमा, परीक्षा प्रणाली र लोकसेवा प्रणालीले युवाको भविष्य रोकिरहेको भन्दै, लेखकले नियन्त्रणभन्दा सशक्तिकरण र संरक्षणले मात्र देश विकास हुने निष्कर्ष निकालेका छन्। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    उम्केको तौल

    Send us a text यो नाटक "उम्केको तौल" (The Escaped Weight) नेपालको परीक्षा प्रणालीको दोषपूर्ण पक्षहरूमाथि प्रकाश पार्ने एउटा विचारोत्तेजक कथा हो। यसले शिक्षामा अपुग मूल्याङ्कन विधिहरू र परम्परागत तराजुको गलत मापन बीच समानता देखाउँछ। कथाले पुरानो प्रणालीलाई आधुनिकीकरण गर्नुपर्ने आवश्यकतालाई जोड दिन्छ, जसलाई डिजिटल तराजुको प्रयोग ले सङ्केत गर्छ। यस नाटकले विद्यार्थीहरूको वास्तविक क्षमता लाई सही ढङ्गले मापन गर्न र शैक्षिक सुधारको आह्वान गर्न प्रोत्साहित गर्छ। नाटकको लेखक, एन.डी. लामा, आफ्नो व्यक्तिगत शैक्षिक संघर्षहरू र शिक्षाप्रतिको उनको गहिरो प्रतिबद्धता मार्फत यस विषयलाई अझ सान्दर्भिक बनाउँछन्। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    Send us a text प्रस्तुत सामग्री डा. एन डी लामाका व्यक्तिगत फेसबुक पोस्टहरू हुन् जसमा उनले कम्प्युटर विज्ञानमा स्नातक अध्ययन गरिरहेको जानकारी दिएका छन्। उनले आफ्नो पढाइलाई शैक्षिक योग्यता पुर्याउन, छोरालाई मार्गदर्शन गर्न, र शिक्षामा नयाँ बाटो खोज्न आवश्यक रहेको बताएका छन्। उनले परम्परागत शिक्षा प्रणालीको आलोचना गर्दै युनिभर्सिटी अफ द पिपल जस्ता वैकल्पिक शैक्षिक संस्थाहरूको सस्तो र गुणस्तरीय शिक्षाको प्रशंसा गरेका छन्। यसका साथै, सामग्रीमा उनको छोरालाई पनि GED परीक्षा दिलाएर उक्त विश्वविद्यालयबाटै पढाइ अगाडि बढाउने योजना समेटिएको छ, र यसले अध्ययनको प्रगति र ट्रान्सफर भएका क्रेडिटहरू देखाउँछ। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    भाग्य र नियतिको दोभान - 069

    Send us a text यस स्रोतले एक व्यक्तिको व्यक्तिगत अनुभव र उनको देशप्रतिको भावनालाई केलाउँछ। लेखकले विदेशमा प्राप्त गरेको उच्च शिक्षा र अवसरलाई आफ्नो भाग्यको रूपमा लिन्छन्, जसले उनलाई संसारका विभिन्न संस्कृति र विकसित राष्ट्रको ज्ञान प्राप्त गर्न मद्दत गर्यो। तर, आफ्नो जन्मभूमि नेपालमा फर्किएपछि, शिक्षा प्रणालीमा देखिएको दिशाहीनता, नीतिगत अन्योल, र अवसरको असमानताले उनलाई अभागी महसुस गराउँछ। देशको सम्भावना र मेहनती जनशक्ति भए पनि नेतृत्वमा देखिएको स्वार्थ र सतही सुधारका प्रयासले उनको मन विचलित बनाउँछ, तर पनि परिवर्तनको आशा अझै जीवित रहेको उनी व्यक्त गर्छन्। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'

    Send us a text यस लेखमा, डा. एनडी लामाले नेपालको शिक्षा प्रणालीमा देखिएका समस्याहरू लाई प्रकाश पार्न एक मादक बुबाको दृष्टान्त प्रयोग गरेका छन्। उनले ती बुबाले आफ्ना सन्तानलाई सहयोग गर्ने परोपकारी व्यक्तिलाई शंका र हिंसाले हेरेको जस्तै, नेपाल सरकारले पनि अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय शिक्षा प्रणाली र नवीन पहलहरूलाई अस्वीकार गरेको तर्क गर्छन्। लेखकले देशको शैक्षिक विकासका लागि प्रतिस्पर्धा र सुधारको आवश्यकतामाथि जोड दिँदै शिक्षामा अविश्वास र प्रतिबन्धको साटो खुलापन र आत्मविश्वास अपनाउनुपर्ने विचार व्यक्त गरेका छन्। समग्रमा, यो लेख नेपालको शिक्षा क्षेत्रमा सकारात्मक परिवर्तन र उन्नतिका लागि आह्वान गर्दछ। Thank you for joining us on this episode of 'Thriving Minds: Navigating Education, Economy, and Happiness.'
