Gaps and Divides • Between theory and practice • Between tacit and explicit knowledge • Between demand and supply • Between and within institutions • Professional and value education • Hot and cool medium
Issues and Concerns-1 • Faculty • Students • Courses • Resources • Infrastructure • Admission criteria • Teaching methods
Issues and Concerns-2 • Quality control • Mushroom growth • Competence • Employability • Higher order skills (critical thinking & evaln) • Student-teacher ratio • CPET, choice, and research quality
The Way Out • Employable skills • Joint-degrees • Horizontal mobility • CBCS • RBSC Learning • Specializations • Research collaboration • Accreditation for quality control
