Abstract

The biggest concern about the present mainstream education is that it kills creativity. The frenzy with which ‘art’ is being introduced seems like an attempt to counter these damages. But ‘schooling’ not only kills creativity, it also kills authenticity, cultural diversity and aesthetic sensibility. It will be worthwhile to look at what has been the impact of teaching art, architecture, and design in this country. This could give us lessons as to what not to do in schools.
