Problems faced in rural educationMajority of India still lives in villages and so the topic of rural education in India is of utmost

importance. A survey named called the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), shows that even
though the number of rural students attending schools is rising, but more than half of the students in
fifth grade are unable to read a second grade text book and are not able to solve simple
mathematical problems. Not only this, the level of maths and reading is further declining. Though
efforts are being made, they are not in the right direction as they fail to realize that for a child to get
properly educated and develop mentally he/she needs to start his education by the time he/she is
four. Ages three to five are considered to be a recognizable developmental stage, and treated as
such: children attend kindergarten, and the staffs who work with them have separate training and
qualifications and career structures. In rural India the education of a children start their education
mostly when they turn five or six years of age mostly by the time by which their natural
developmental stage is almost finished this added to the other bad aspects of rural education such
as quality of teachers and high number of students in the class does not allow them to properly
develop their analytical and logical skills which are required at that stage. Children start developing
their phonetic skills as early as 2 to 3 years and whatever language they are taught at that stage
they become adept at it. The point which has to kept in mind is that children in rural India only
communicate in their regional languages and English as a language has to be taught to them from
the scratch when they start their education at age of 5 or 6 by that time they have a hard time
grasping the language resulting in loss of interest in school as all the subjects and the books
provided are going to be in English.
The proposed solution to this problem is to provide the children in with preprimary education
where ever possible the most ideal location would be the community center, town hall etc where
children along with their mothers can come along. We could set up a class there so that t hrough
play-based learning, children learn important early numeracy, literacy and social skills that will
help them throughout school - and life. Things such as Lego, art class and learning basic
numbers and alphabets at a young age can really help children to prosper as students at a later
stage. Additionally this will also solve the problem of keeping the students genuinely interested
in studies as if they start early and interact with children their age who are interested in studies
they percentage of children dropping out will drastically decrease as the ever since a student
can remember he has been going to school and not his interest towards education will also
increase. It also solves the huge problem of bringing attitudinal changes in children as they can
be influenced from a very young age by their teachers.

Green conexxion can help achieve this objective of imparting education to children from
a kinder garden level by setting up it is electronic education platform in various village
community centers. Green conexxion also has to see to it that its education centers are properly
manned by people who set can properly interact with children, provide a good role model for
them and guide them into the hallowed portals of education.
