Hyderabad: Prof Jos Nolle, Dean of Seneca International, Toronto, has underlined the need of problem-based learning, instead of memorisation, to excel well in this year of globalisation. "Globalisation is equal to out of box.
Memorisation doesn't train critical thinking, which is very crucial for our progress," Prof Jos said while delivering a lecture on "Leadership in the 21st century for Modern Applied Higher Education" in Administrative Staff College of India's Bella Vista campus on Thursday.
Outlining the quality of a teacher, he said: "Teachers should have the technical experience while carrying passion about transferring knowledge and skills to others." He also opined that globalisation is not building walls.
"Innovation is happening everywhere and we need each other to learn, solve, and grow," he said. Earlier, Prof Jos shared the Memorandum of Understanding signed by Seneca College of Applied Arts and Technology management and ASCI Registrar Kalyan K Roy to facilitate academic and applied research collaboration between the two institutes.
