The Professor:

                                              

                   

                         

Professor, I have a question, one of the students of Mrs. Prashna, yes hit me with your question, Professor replied. Are students at the Master level supposed to rank the quality of Professors? 

What if I generally don’t like any of the professor's teaching styles? Do you contemplate its tolerable? How would you take on this? Mr. Sushant a Master scholar came up with unusual queries in the middle of the class. Professor looked at him and said. Before I answer your question.

 I have a question for you. Tell me what exactly matters to you with the professor in class? 

I am sure It has to be a great amount of knowledge and the power to disseminate, Sushant responded, great analysis. Professor replied. 

Exactly that’s where the problem with students begins. The system has put the Professor criteria for credential of knowledge, degrees, experience and the procedure one must go to get the tag of Professor and that students tend to judge them for the list of things such as knowledge, experience, research the list can go on. 

University is not to disseminate the information using the sources, it is to decorate the future with the best artist possible.

To some magnitude it’s all fine, but that is not at all suffice to make one a Professor, one does not become a professor only with the vast amount of knowledge, but the fact of the matter is, does anyone inside the classroom able to challenge the mindset of our today’s generation, today generation doesn’t need information, they need their mindset to be challenged.

 And I need a scholar to challenge the way I teach and profess so that innovation in learning happens, else it is going to be a mess with education. If you find someone someday you are in the right university I suppose. Everyone in the classroom remains lost with words and that is something Mrs. Prashna always defy inside the classroom.

One of the youngest and less experienced among the rest of other professors at university, Mrs. Prashna so young as she is had numerous guest lectures at national and international reputed universities, and organization, the best professor award, and a highly recognized university professor as she was.

 Her teaching style was way better than many others at the university. Most chose to derive knowledge from the learning but she chose to derive innovation among student’s viewpoints inside her classroom. She was much liked by her students and had led and organized many international research programs under her guidance. She has even recognized internationally. Her accomplishment of the pinnacle was something everyone at the university envy upon.

Mrs. Prashna, why your classes have too petite information? the newly appointed director of Master during one on one meetings with professors. 

He continues, Professor needs stacks of information and loaded with knowledge, likewise, do you have any idea how other professor impart? 

You are absolutely right sir, Prashna in her reply, I opine Professor job is to defy the scholar's new-found knowledge and information they received from various links and sources they follow, university-level teaching should not be what it used to be decades ago, Powerpoint slides or perhaps downloaded videos from YouTube aren’t just enough to transform?  

I don’t dispute with what you say but I do have different perspectives for professing. Every day I go with a mindset to get challenged myself and to challenge my scholars so that something innovation begins she retorts. Director did not find any words to continue. As she was getting more and more acceptance from students, the competition didn’t take the right turn at the university, Mrs. Prashna was the topic under discussion among most of other lecturers and Professors.

One of the professor and her only supporter Mr. Gyanendra, Mrs. Prashna on her way back to her cabin after her class, the conversation simply illustrates that rest of other professor showed a vast worrisome with her presence at the university. 

Her teaching style isn’t just tied up with the deeply rooted values of the university. The professor union has filed the case against her for proper investigation of her credentials such as certificate and academic degrees. After a very short pause, I don’t care what university thinks about me, but I will do everything possible to uproot the filthy deeply rooted and obsolete pedagogy and mindset. 

She replied over Mr. Gyanendra's statement. You will be in big trouble Prashna, your students don’t want to lose you, you know what best work for this university teaching Mr. Gyanendra retorts back to her.  I believe in academic transformation not only a professing power, everyone has the power to teach and train, what most lectures and professor lack is to develop a defying mindset of their own. 

Informative classes drive scholars for only what they know but they will later blame the education system once they bump with the situation that they never knew. 

And it is our responsibility to act differently, a 5 years’ child can be loaded with mammoth information today but professor need a different teaching attitude. New perspective of learning and professing needs the mindset of transformation to mitigate the academic challenge between professors and learners.

Few Professors, Director and other academic head of the University along with Mrs. Prashna. There is no any records of your prerequisite testimonies in the name of the university you hold and your academic credential submitted have proven to be a phony. 

The director of the program furious amid the meeting with Mrs. Prashna. She must be disqualified from teaching, one of the senior professor added and he continued, and there is no point in looking forward for your service and we very soon need to inform all of those institutes wherever you have tied up with. Do you have anything to say Mrs. Prashna, director inquired. 

All I have is a hope to defy myself and my perspective, I have nothing to say to the fellow mates. Thank you for the opportunity, she wrapped up.

She packed her bag on the way out, Mrs. Prashna is no more at the university  since then, her teaching and new perspective driven professing style was missed by the scholars. Scholars tried to reached out to her, requested university to bring her back, university kept silent on her whereabouts.

One and half years later the university took students for a field visit to interact with underprivileged school 150 km away from the university, little the director knew about the school sophisticated system and the kind of teaching methods the school use. he wanted a visit with his students for a field visit.

As soon as they reached to the school, the incredible reception they received by the students, amazingly maintained garden with beautiful inspirational quotes, a different vibe permeates. 

Volunteered students took visitors to the principal cabin. They made everyone sit and ask them to wait till the principal came back from the classroom. Almost 10 to 15minute wait Mrs. Prashna walks inside the room, it was more astounding to see her at the school. 

She welcomed all of them at her school, her Master scholars were much happy to see her again. She had no any intention to go back to teach university level since running a school and creating the next professor is all what she always dreamt.  

After a 2 days’ visit and a wonderful stay with Mrs. Prashna, on a way back to University everyone notices one beautiful quote that simply states “We don’t sell certificate here, you are challenged to devalue your certificate every day” 

Director always knew her documents were counterfeit but he also knew that there will be no anyone to challenge the system of overall lecturing back to university again. And I am indisputable she will bring up all these kids without any certificates director prologue. 

That made director think deep inside that Mrs. Prashna assuredly had thrown away all of her credentials as a testimony.
