I had been mulling for several years about why young are being accepted by Nepali students. I had also been in search of finding the reason behind the rejection of an old experienced lecturer. I do not know how much I am correct into my digging but it is a reality in Nepal. And, it’s true that most of the colleges have more young lecturers than many years experienced ones. The main reasons for rejecting old experienced lecturers are as follows:
Initially, it matters a lot about in which level we teach because if we teach young people, obviously they need teacher of their time rather than old one. They do not want to give their time for study merely but also other recreational activities which were not provided by our traditional teachers. What our old teacher wanted was that to exploit parrot learning and showed atrocious behavior in the name of punishment. They did not like to be according as students wants.
Furthermore, simply experience doesn’t matter at all if they cannot enjoy with their students. What I found in Nepal is that owing to lack of peripheral knowledge, even experienced teachers are being rejected. They were not updated with the latest technology and system. They used to teach in traditional system which was not preferred by student today because we must update with technology.
In the contrary, young lectures are being successful here in these cases. They are doing what young students wants. They are trying to give their time for not only study but also other recreational stuffs. They are making nice team work with students for academic and professional activities. Similarly, young lecturers are updating themselves with the latest technologies and modern teaching paradigms. Thus, they are succeeding in their way.
In conclusion, it is not always good symptom that callow lecturers are in great demand here if they do have sufficient knowledge. In the name of preferring young ones, it is not good practice to discourage an experienced one. Instead, old experienced should learn from youngs’ exemplary works and update themselves.
