An educationist Mr. Norbert Gbogboti has called on the Ministry of Education and Ghana Education Service to be more practical in their teaching than using the theological methods of educating students.
Speaking on Plan B FM’s morning show NKOSUONSEM hosted by Nana Yaw Abrompah, Mr Gbogboti said there is too much theory in our education system which isn’t helping students especially when in the second cycle schools and the universities; hence it must redesign some of their courses to reflect the current needs of the industry and society and also take a second look at their mode of teaching.
He reiterated that students will be more critical thinkers in society if most of what they are taught in school is more practical work than theory.
This he stated will help students especially graduates move forward and develop as they have the needed skills in the job market and the ability to think.
He emphasized the need to learn and develop new modes of teaching to help reduce the unemployment rate in the country.
The educationist stated if the mode of teaching were different, unemployment would have been low and encouraged teachers and educationists to develop the need to be creative and innovative in their mode of teaching by developing new ways of teaching students.
