Oriental Learning (Indology)
Ooriental studies is the academic field of
study that embraces Near Eastern and far
Eastern societies and culture languagers,
peoples, history and archaeology.
The study of subjects reated to indology
is oriental learning, these subjects are based
on history and culture of India.
Oriental Learning in India
Oriental Research Institutes are institutions
specially devoted to Indological studies. Indology
is the science study of culture in all its
aspects. With the disappearance of the
Gurukula System and the ancient universities
like those at Nalanda and Takasila and also
the gradual dissolution of the powerful
kingdoms by conquests from outside, it
become necessary to evolve a method by
which the ancient knowledge and wisdom
the country could be revived and preserved.
It is the westrem scholars of the 19th and
the 20th centuries who were mainly responsible
for this revival, though many scholars also
har contributed considerably to it. The work
of these institutes consisted chiefly in
the collecting and collating rare manuscripts
in the oriental languages like prakrt and
sanskrit dealing with religion, philosophy,
literature, grammar, arts and sciences,
editing them and publishing them with or
without translations and explanatory notes,
where and when such publications are not
possible, the manuscripts and other
connected materials are preserved by using
various modern and dcientific devices.

Conventional Learning
Traditional education, also known as back to
basics, conventional education or customary
education, refers to long-established customs
that society traditionally used in schools.
e-learning is short for conventional,
learning, it refers to conventional teaching and learning
within a brick-and
morden classroom facility. Contrast with
e-learning conventional teaching method
involving instructors and the students.
Conventional Learning in India
In most parts of our country traditional
teaching methods are used in the educational
institutions. In the traditional teaching
method, teachers illustrate the concept to
the students with the help of chalks and
blackboard. Every important thing regarding
the topic is written on the blockboard and
students make important notes from the
blackboard. After the lecture is over student
revise their notes and try to memorise
the notes. The main objective of traditional
teaching is to pass the examination.
Traditional teaching system has its own
merits and demerits.
Merits of Conventional teaching methods
Traditional teaching method is cheaper than the
modern teaching methods which make it more
suitable in the schools of rural areas. Some
subjects like mathematics or chemistry are
best thought on a blockboard as there is a
need of explaining the concept at each
every step. There is more interaction between
the teacher and student in traditional
teaching methods as compared to the modern
teaching methods. We can also say that in
traditional teaching there is more discipline
in the class. In traditional teaching methods
teacher does not require any special
technical knowledge and can focus more on
his subject for importing the best knowledge
to the students. Traditional teaching
methods don't put any strain on the eyes
of students whereas modern teaching methods
can adversely affect the eyes of the student.
Non-Conventional learning
Non-Conventional education is education that
is offered in way is other than common day
time college classrooms. There are many versions
of non-traditional education, such as college
pre-education, evening courses, independent
learning, online tearning, residencies, cross
registration and one-on-one learning. The
knowledge is termed as non conventional
learning it is contrast with conventional
learning.
Non-Conventional learning in India
As India rolled into the 21st century, this
generation has broken the chains of conventional
doctor - engineer - MBA paths drawn out by a
more rigid society of the past and replaced
the cookie-cutter thought process with a
slightly more inspired one. Creative courses
are now abundant, widening the scope of
career choices in India and making
alternate journeys in a life a possibility
with new avenues and opportunities on the
horizon India's youth in expanding the
definition of learning.
