While addressing the faculty and students of the Aryans Group of Colleges on the occasion, Harcharan Bains said that Challenges to education today is to shift from a localized factory model to one that prepares its students to function in an increasingly interconnected and rapidly changing globalized world. Education must prepare youth for integration into societies and economies from highly diverse, linguistic, ethnic, religious, racial and cultural backgrounds. Children should be taught ‘to learn how to learn’ in view of the availability of enormous amount of information now available through the internet.S.
