assing time ushers in new ideas, new ideologies, new branches of human knowledge and new perspectives. Accordingly human activities assume a new dimension. The education sector has seen exceedingly prominent changes in the recent times – be it the content, the mode of delivery or the outcome. The riveted focus on student centered methods and technology aided teaching learning has given a new definition to education. Adroitly adapt to the new environs appears to be the watchwords. Sayings such as ‘an educate person of yesterday if stops learning today, will become uneducated tomorrow’ are the warning bells to the impending peril of the system becoming outdated without adaptation.
