The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is transforming how teachers function in Indian universities. Instead of being limited to delivering lectures, teachers are now seen as mentors, facilitators, and innovators.
Experts believe NEP 2020 shifts focus from rote learning to critical thinking, creativity, and skill-building. Teachers are encouraged to use experiential methods, like live projects, internships, and simulations, that connect students directly with industry needs. This helps learners become job-ready while reducing reliance on traditional classroom theory.
The policy also promotes autonomy, allowing teachers to experiment with teaching styles, interdisciplinary methods, and technology-driven tools. At the same time, it emphasizes training and accountability to ensure effective implementation.
Beyond academics, NEP 2020 highlights ethical leadership and social responsibility. Teachers are expected to instill compassion, curiosity, and adaptability, preparing students not just for jobs, but for life.
While challenges remain, such as providing resources and structured training, the consensus is clear: NEP 2020 redefines educators as enablers of growth, mentors of thought, and collaborators in shaping India’s future.
