If I have to point out one big time waster in entire course of study it would be - THE ASSIGNMENTS.
Teachers give assignments to students. Students go to the net. Copy and paste or read and write and hand over to the teachers.
Neither there is originality, research or brain involved. Nor do students know what they have written. For they have so many assignments to submit. They really don't have time.
WHAT'S the gain: Teachers check the copied material or material written for the sake of writing, mark them and gave it back.
There is no learning or knowledge synthesis in the entire process. There is no actual assessment of grasping power or analytical skills of students.
And the material written can't be given in examination by students far its so ellaborative and obtained from plethora of sites.
The time spent in making assignments can be invested by the student in making records or studying things which are of far more importance.
In short, the education system has so many short comings.
