Importance of Current Affairs in Today"s World

Today, we live in a world which realizes the value of latest affairs in our lives. World has changed a lot since the earlier decades. Back then, it was a world which ran after academic knowledge and confined its education system to the lines of academics and rote learning. There was no scope for learning beyond the four walls of the classroom, and if any such activity was exhibited by the student, he/she was discouraged. However, times have changed now, it is a more radical world which not only focuses on academic values but also throws a vast picture on the current scenario in our environment. Our teachers on every stage conduct quizzes which help us to stay aware of the ongoing activities around us. Staying updated not only updates us but also gives us an opportunity to voice our opinion.

The focus on current affairs begins from school level. They instill in us a habit of learning the latest affairs not only of India but all around the world. The Government has ensured that the new education system consists of a broad structure of learning which would not only impart academic knowledge to the students but also enlarge their vision to perceive the world. This has been very fruitful since many students get into the habit of reading newspapers and watching news channels due to a constant push by their teachers and parents.

The Government has also made provisions which allow spread of newspapers in every school by a monthly subscription plan. Participation in current affair quizzes has also helped the students to gain interests in the current happenings all around the world. These quiz contests usually consist of questions related to current affairs which are presented in a entertaining format.

The standard of the question raises after every level which makes it a fun activity for the students to perform. Apart from entertaining the participants and the audience, they impart information about the latest affairs in a friendly manner. These techniques have proved to be beneficial. There are also various debates held in classes, or inter-school competitions where the students are confronted with prevailing issues. They are given a social situation, or a current affair on the spot and they have to debate about it. This not only helps the student to stay updated but also enhances his/her communication skills.

Such techniques adopted by the Government have proved to beneficial for the students. Frequent exposure to latest affairs can develop your interest in the Current affairs and help you prepare for your entrance exams later in life.
