All educational institutions will have internet access soon, Education Minister Dipu Moni has said.
“We have already converged 100% electricity in all educational institutions. Now educational institutions will be given internet coverage,” she said after inaugurating the 19th anniversary of Dhaka University of Engineering and Technology (DUET) on Thursday.
The minister further mentioned that under this new curriculum teaching and learning would be more enjoyable and educational instructions will turn into a “joy centre”.
Students will learn through experience and experiment, and no one would have to memorize lectures anymore, the education minister noted.
She also pointed out that the ministry is bringing a new curriculum from pre-primary to higher secondary levels.
“We are also bringing remarkable changes to the university level curriculum,” she added.
However, the minister mentioned that due to the fourth industrial revolution, around 65% of jobs will not exist for the students who are at now at primary levels.
“But there will be other job opportunities, and that is why we have to make them fit for that,” she added.
The minister also said that the government is working on some issues so that after passing the diploma, the students are able to get into DUET, and other engineering universities.
