ADULT EDUCATION SPEECH 2
Good morning to the excellencies, Principal sir, teachers and my dear colleagues. My name is…, I study in class… As we are gathered here to celebrate this occasion, I would like to speech on the topic of adult education. Our country, India is still counted as a developing country because of the lack of economic growth and adult literacy. Adult illiteracy is one of the major social issue in the path of development of country. Adult education awareness is very necessary to spread in the society because education is the only tool which can enlighten every corner of the country. Adults occupies a big section of the society and we can say that high percentage of a big section is illiterate that’s why the Indian economy status is weak. This higher illiterate section section in our country causes serious affect on the development. Country’s development depends on the development of each individual living in the country. Weaker section of the society needs to be raised, well informed and aware by giving proper education. They should be given knowledge about the importance of own education in the life and work hard for their children education.
Many steps have been taken by the government of India to promote and spread the information about the adult education in the form of camps arrangement, special classes, etc at various places. Some people do not get study as their daily earning become very less, not enough for two times meals, in such cases they should be provided additional financial assistance to make the adult education first priority. They should be motivated for life long learning and involve in improving personal as well as country’s economic status.
Earlier, the education system in India was very bad in which only the fortunate people were given good education in the schools however low cast people were not allowed to the enter to the school, this system had created a big gap between literate and illiterate people of the society. Weaker sections people were given job by the literate people at very low cost. After a long time practice of this phenomenon, weaker section people and their new generations became more weak with time. India is highly populated country, so it is very difficult task to educate all the illiterate people of India. According to the survey in 2008, it is found that almost 28% of the world’s illiterate people are from India alone. India still has almost 45,000 villages without primary school.
Seeing the poor condition of India, adult education has been a great necessity. It is also very clear that adult people may not interested in the study because of their low economic status and lack of time. In such condition, there is need of special awareness program to aware almost all the uneducated people of the society towards the importance of adult education. Adult education programme was first time launched by the government of India in 1978 which has covered around 94,000 centres, yet many people are still illiterate in the country. In order to attract and motivate more adult people towards study, interesting things like television, audio, video systems, radio, films, etc should be used.
Thank you
