Technology Should Be Taught In Mother Tongue. - For or Against?
From what we see as the need of the hour - Learning new technologies can be effective for poor and illiterate youth in developing countries. Technology can be the tool of millions for providing everyday solutions. The problem lies in the fact that English, though an universal language, is not known to the deprived masses.
Moreover, learning a new language for learning technology is an additional burden on all of us. (let alone the technical jargon.)
I gave it a thought and felt that if we teach technology to children in their mother tongue, they will grasp it in a better and easier way.
I think I need not give the examples of countries like Japan and Korea, who use their national language for learning each and every subject.
What do CEans feel? Speak out.

I used to think that unless one learns to speak & converse in English, his/her feature is doomed. But with my own study in the recent times; it's become quite obvious that study in one's mother-tongue is the best way to learn anything!born_star16So, what has changed your thoughts since 2005? 😀
Germany is famous for engineering and they don't speak English. -
lovejeetaccording to me, the basics of teachings should be taught in mother tongue, so that the student grasps most of it. but as the concept develops, we should also move on to the widely accepted languages too, so that we can keep in touch with the current happenings around the world too.

durga chthe comfort of one's learning technology in one's own language is - your dont really need to understand how the language works to understand how the technology works. It's a huge added advantage over first knowing the grammar of a lanaguage and then try understanding 1000 pages books written in a very gramatically correct english :-s.
But, we need to have people who can teach in mother tongue right??? -
silverscorpionTo teach a subject, any subject, in a given language, we need to be able to express everything about that subject in that language without using too much of Foreign words, say from English. If there is too much influx of foreign words, then a student may as well learn it in that foreign language itself. That is where I think we will face difficulty, given that technical words and expressions for describing most technology concepts, either don't exist or are not in widespread use in many of the vernacular languages. So, if we need to teach in local languages, we first need to develop the infrastructure in the languages, that support such an effort.

Ramani AswathA bit of autobiography. My mother tongue is technically Tamil, though it was only in college I studied it formally. I was more familiar with Telugu. My wife's is Kannada. My neighbour on one side was a Marathi the other from UP. We worked in Kerala where the language is Malayalam. Even today we mostly speak English at home. Kids perforce had to study in English.
If mother tongue, which? Marathi, Tamil or any of the many National Languages? If so, what about the teachers? They have to be of the same language?
I see the problem. However, the solution may create a bigger havoc. -
Kaustubh KatdareOkay, the solution may not be easy. But let's say, the states offer education in the dominant language: viz. Maharashtra offering education in Marathi, Tamil Nadu in Tamil, Gujrat in Gujrati and so on.
Reverse engineering the system setup by the Brits is going to be a tough job for sure. -

Recently we went to a temple in deep South Tamilnadu. The temple office comes under the government. Everything was written in some strange Tamil translation. The computer room and various offices were labelled only in some overzealous fanatic translation into Tamil. The people themselves were using common terms after we get to the correct place. Even thermodynamic terms and common technical terms get outlandish(wrong word for a local language!) translations.The_Big_KOkay, the solution may not be easy.

Kerala does it differently. Common things like Computer and Internet Cafe are written in local script transliterated. Bus is just bus written in Malayalam. Contrast this with Tamilnadu, where it becomes Perundhu. May be technical terms can be retained as they are (Treat them as symbols) but have the instruction language local. My wife and I set up a science lab in a tribal area, where we did this. There was no problem interacting with the students. This may work well for labs and technical hands on kind of work.
I am not sure how didactic lectures in formal technical subjects can be handled. We may have to start with the teachers and change their mind set. -

Dancer_EngineerI agree to all the points mentioned above.
But I have a doubt here.
My Mother tongue is Telugu. I'm currently staying in Mumbai. So what am I supposed to do? Learn the Technology in Telugu or Marathi or both? And suppose if tomorrow I'm transferred to another state in India, say to Kolkata, then what am I supposed to do? Learn the Technology in Bengali? So do I keep on updating myself to the latest Technology or the language? 😐 -

I'm not defending, but I think it's the case with every human being. Everybody is comfortable and love to speak in their own Mother tongue. And let's not forget the ratio when you are in a foreign land, you are just one compared to the rest of the mass. Do you expect the entire mass to learn your language so that you are comfortable? No!lovejeetyup. south Indians have a strange beholding love to their mother tongue. -

silverscorpion^^ And why do you think that is a solution? Don't you want to preserve your own language? It would have definitely been better if we had only one language from the start. However, we didnt. We each have our own languages and our own literature. If not for our own sake, we must preserve our languages at least for our future generations.

Not really. I had that opinion for long; and one of the main reasons why we decided to choose 'English' as the primary language of this forum.

Because they simply do accept English.Tanu Pawarsolution to all above is one....!!! hv one language in common, that's it!!!we have english right now!!!👍
I do not say that I've a concrete solution to the problem of languages; but I'm very confident that there will be a solution.
English is far from being the perfect languages. If there has to be 'one' language - then it has to be the one that's better at grammar than English. -

yup. we should give importance to our mother tongue, since we are the most comfortable in it. but the thing is, we should equally respect the other languages too. we can't progress if we are limited to just our own language. there is a famous saying in Sanskrit:-Dancer_EngineerI'm not defending, but I think it's the case with every human being.

Kaustubh KatdareLet me make it clear that this thread is not about promoting education in 'one' language. I had my own realizations about the language after thinking a bit about why the Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Europeans have been able to make significant achievements in Engineering, Technology, Sciences, Manufacturing etc. without adopting English.
With India - people may see a different problem. I'd rather draw similarities between India and Europe. Europe has small countries and India has small states. European countries have their own languages while Indian states have been created on the basis of languages. If Norway (small European country) can make significant progress without needing English, why can't Tamil Nadu make the same with Tamil? Why can't the systems evolve to promote localized innovation?
If language was a problem - how come India did so very well in the past that it had its own advanced theories and inventions 1000s of years before they were 'invented' by the world ( 😀 ).
Of course, I do not hate any language nor I intend to promote any language. All I'm saying is that if we want a common language then it has to be the language that's perfect in grammar (...and do we need a debate on this?).
Give it a thought. -
circularsquareMost people will agree that India has got many jobless people. What I suggest will create sufficient jobs for some people and will also solve this language problem to a small extent.
I have seen MIT lectures on net where a person stands in the class and tells in sign language what the professor is teaching. I am assuming they do this for any deaf students who may be present in the class.
What I have to say is something similar. Why don't we keep translators in every classroom. The professor can teach in the language he/she is comfortable with and at the same time a translator could translate that in local language. And the audio of choice should be listened via headphones by the students.
I agree that this would need cheaper technology . But this could be something which could be tried in the future.
What I have said happens in international political summits and conferences.
Rather than having a language imposed upon students , this will give them somewhat freedom of choice.
This solution is to be tried not in schools because there are too many of them. But this could be done in higher educational institutes. And they are the ones which have the maximum number of out-of-state students. So this solution could provide relief there. -
Kaustubh Katdare@circularsquare: That's a great option. Why can't we develop real time language translators? You simply run the app and it translates everything in your choice of language in the real time!

another reason in the development of japan and Israel is the continuous challenge they have to go through. japan has a tough time dealing with all kinds of natural disasters it can, and Israel is surrounded by the countries opposite to it. so these hard times gives them the strength to do better in every circumstances they had to go through. -

Vivien.hugoAnyway, English is the most popular language in the world. Teach technology in English can also help improve English although it's not easy to understand as mother language. I think it will be better if the teacher shows technology with demo, not too much talk.
-
GurjapI've read through some posts in this thread, and I have to say that I've had it with those hypocritical ancestor-worshipers who think we should be bringing dead languages back, or worse, that we should teach technology in Indian languages.
Germany is famous for engineering and they don't speak English.
is what The Big K says. Have you looked lately at their inventors? Diesel, Benz, Daimler...... all world-class inventors, top-notch ground breaking pioneers of the IC engine. Since they broke the path and they were Germans, it is no wonder their work is in German, and the Germans have a word for "IC Engine" in German, whereas we do NOT have one (when we do not raise ghosts by translating such technical terms in laughable and ridiculous Sanskrit. To cite, "Mechanical Engineering" is "Yantriki Abhiyantriki" in Sankrit. I'd rather say "Mechanical Engineering", thank you very much, my Indian roots be damned). I envy the Germans passionately for that.
If you don't want to talk engineering, try finding the words for "Photoelectric Effect" or "Carbon Fiber" or something like that. Bottomline: We did not invent these things. Western people did. Let us stop being hypocrites and not try to steal what's not ours. -
Kaustubh Katdare#-Link-Snipped-#: Are you aware that most of the Indian languages have 10x more words than English?
-
GurjapI was not. But then again, I don't think learning new words for "longing" and "love" is of any practical use.
I was referring to technical terms, used daily by engineers all over the world. How many of them are Indian? -
Kaustubh KatdareI don't subscribe to your thought that germans have a word for IC engines and other languages don't. Ideally, the world should speak only one language; but it doesn't work that way. I often wonder why a small countries like Japan, Denmark, Israel, Germany, France continue to teach technical disciplines in their own languages. I had an opportunity to visit Israel last year and I was totally shocked to learn that all the hardcore technical stuff was being taught in Hebrew! My immediate reaction was, do you have all the technical words; and their response was clever. They said we have adopted the words from popular languages but we continue to keep the medium of communication and teach as Hebrew. Oh and these guys were the ones working on cutting edge technology for Intel & Google! They didn't speak English very well, but that didn't seem to go against their progress in any way.
Regarding the 'India didn't invent'; I believe a lot of research needs to be done. Probably, Indians are grown up with the thought that they didn't invent a thing! But a curious look at history reveals super-amazing things. That's a different topic though.
The point I'm making is about the language of teaching; and that is *not* limited to words. I'm all game for calling 'Mechanical Engineering' as 'Mechanical Engineering' and not 'Yantriki Abhiyantriki'. But I'm all game for teaching mechanical engineering in local languages. Use the words you find easy to use; but teach using local language.

Do you have any proof when you say there are no alternate words for the technical jargon we use in Sanskrit or for that matter other Indian languages? The Germans, the Japanese, the Chinese all use THEIR own languages to study things and create awesome, path-breaking innovations.
Here's an example of what Japanese people do. They twist and turn the English language words so that it fits their script. Example: They pronounce 'light' as 'raa-i-to'. So basically, it's about being comfortable with the language. They don't 'invent' words to replace all the jargon.
We spend too much time trying to learn a new language than getting accustomed to learning things in a language that we hear everyday right from the day we are born.
PS:

No offense, but disappointed. -
Gurjap
They said we have adopted the words from popular languages but we continue to keep the medium of communication and teach as Hebrew.
Very clever indeed. This is, however, what I meant when I said "let's not steal what's not ours". We did not invent any modern technology that feeds, clothes and houses us and allows us to have a social life. We pay for that by learning European languages.
I don't subscribe to your thought that germans have a word for IC engines and other languages don't.
I never said other languages don't have a word for IC engine. I was merely quoting an example. The French and the Japanese have their own words. That is so because they are also pioneers in this field. Hindi, our so called "National Language", does not have a word for it. Do you agree?
No offense, but disappointed.
No offense taken at all, I assure you. I understand what you mean. When I make this point, even the best of my friends are shocked. But I am sure you can relate to my frustration. People keep flogging this dead horse of Sanskrit, and I know it is a brilliant language yada yada yada.. but it is also a dead language, and people keep trying to bring it back for some patriotic reason I simply cannot understand. -

#-Link-Snipped-#
First Sanskrit Computational Linguistics Symposium Program
Sanskrit is quite alive in certain technical areas. It is also an active language in pockets in South India. It is a beautiful language and fully structured without the quirks that defy any logic, which abound in English. Because of circumstances, I never formally studied my mother tongue till well into college. I had to study in English. I love that language inspite of its peculiarities.
However, there is no need to be forever under bondage to that. Whreevr needed use the foreign term but in the local script as is common in Kerala. The basic medium can be the local language. -
Kaustubh KatdareIf I'm not mistaken, Sanskrit is the only language in the world that's grammatically *perfect*. Now, this debate is not about showing one language better than other. We respect all the languages, and even decided to use English as the primary language of communication here on CE.
My point is the medium of teaching has to be mother-tongue. You can adopt thousand words to suit the needs.
Why? Because we learn new things through 'association'. Our brain is trained to associate the new things with the things it's already known and I think mother-tongue plays a crucial role in it. -

In Madras in the early sixties there was a state government institute giving diploma courses near IIT. Because they were short of staff IIT deputed some of us to go and take a few classes in our specialitities. Since the students come straight from SSLC, many did not have a good grasp of English. I just used a mixture of Tamil and English to get concepts of thermodynamics across. There was no problem at all.
At the least the teacher must be given the option to use whatever language appropriate at the moment to get the point across. The student should likewise be permitted to ask his doubts in a language that can get his requirements across to the teacher. Teaching is a two way communication, not something handed down from above.
