Rough Book

"Neither the development of a grading system nor the subsequent revisions of that system were done for the benefit of student learning per se; historically, grades have existed primarily for institutions." - Schinske and Tanner Good grades reflect one's ability to perform well not learn well. Academic performance reflect commitment, hard work and organizational skills not necessarily intelligence. Often traditional and myopic mindsets confuse performance in exams with intelligence. They are two discreet dimensions with no proportionality to each other. Our education systems, parents and students themselves focus on extrinsic motivation rather than intrinsic. This movie gives an once-over to the current traditional education system of modern india. It is not an avant- grade plot and has some unnecessary elements.. could have been more scrupulous.. Not a commercial ensemble.. Average performances.. However, an eye-opener, thought provoking plot... still a good watch..
