The Education of Quality for Quality Education
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Research in English & Education - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Quality has been variously defined, but fairly understood because of its complexity. In case of education, this haziness is further enhanced, especially because of the illusion at the boundary of quality of education w.r.t education of quality – the two aspects of education quality. This paper attempts to clarify the haziness by citing the importance of each and underpinning how each contributes holistically to the excellence working at the system level. To analyze the two aspects this work draws on the three definitions of quality, as defined by ISO 9000 series standard, or by Gurus like Philip Crosby or Joseph Juran. The quality prescriptions are weighted w.r.t the system of education that looks at approach of transformation, or outcomes or the customer’s demand. The three attributes are mandates of excellence of the Thareja’s AUM model, or of accrediting bodies or of the employer. The latter attribute is sought after both by prospective customers of education institutions (students) and by employers – the consumers of the product. Finally, in this paper I prescribe improving the system requirements, addressing the constraints and holistically transforming the student through various education processes. The implementation is prescribed to chase objectives duly aligning with processes for performance improvement, using the transition tree approach. This is done through determination of gaps between current reality and possible solutions (actions).
