IIT prof's message to parents of college students

- In this video, I discuss some points which will help parents to understand the difficulties faced by their college-going children.
1. The importance of being aware and involved in the overall activities (both academic and non-academic) of their children without falling into the temptation of helicopter parenting.
2. The difference in the goals of the students during JEE and after JEE. Before JEE there was one single goal. After JEE, at an institute there is a wide variety of options to choose one's goal from. Parents need to help their children navigate the uncertainties and the confusion.
3. The education system at an institute is completely different from the regimented style of "teaching" which coaching institutes pursue. It is to be expected that students will have difficulty in adapting to this different style. Parents can help their children to appreciate that this is the real style of teaching and that the regimented style of teaching is not the natural order! What is required is to inculcate a sense of responsibility to complete one's own tasks and further one's own progress.
4. If students get interested in extra-curricular activities, parents should not take an antagonistic stand. They should try to understand the motivations of the student and discuss with them how they plan to handle their academic side-by-side. They should try to make their children feel that they are on their team.

A beautiful video on how parents need to be a support systems for their college going children. It is a stressful life around especially in college with peer pressures, expectations, and competition along with the sudden influx of freedom which adds to the confusion. It is like moving from a river to a sea/ocean. Students need a lot of encouragement, understanding and support and the best people to understand the children are their parents. It was also nice that you referenced to the previous video of good and bad teaching and pointed out the need for learning the process of self-learning. :)
Nice analogy about moving from a river to a sea/ocean!

Thank you very much Sir for your valuable guidance...
An excellent video by Prof. JC! Thanks for organizing your suggestions in a coherent manner!
Thank you sir for your advice which really help me to follow.This is fact that we are avoiding discussion of some important part which we are realising now.
Thank you sir. Your videos are very insightful
Your videos are always excellent... Thank you from the bottom of my heart dear professor for guiding not only the students but at the time their parents too..🙏
Thank you!
Thank you Professor JC sir for sharing valuable information and it is so great of you to take time and share this points to all parents.
You are most welcome.
I have found that students', especially ones that stay away from home in hostels, use the newfound freedom to explore themselves. This is especially true of relationships. However, young adults of 18-21 years of age don't take rejection or heartbreak so easily or in their stride. It is all a part of their personal development which I find students in the Western systems are more mature in handling. Our students 'want' to indulge, but also start believing that their relationship is 'everything' that defines them. The cascading effect is seen in missing classes or not paying attention to academics. This issue I find is quite rampant and rarely discussed or addressed.
You have mentioned an extremely important point. I am very tempted to make a separate video on this but frankly speaking I am not too confident speaking about matters of the heart myself!
Thank you sir
❤ for you
Profound
do make a video lecture about a college student stuck in a tier3 college were teachers really dont want to teach enough
Sir, everyone discusses abt case of a student who devolops extracurricular interests n issues with balancing academics. Can you suggest some tips on encouraging a kid to explore diff dimensions of life along with academics wen some of them actually feel locked in tht all curriculum n no extra curriculum waala approach thrust upon them durung their jee prep days? That is also an equally difficult scenario to manage. Where to draw a line?
Prof JC , we all love u , thanks for sharing such so unique but most imp knowledge of basic things in life 😊😀💗💘
Thank you.

Dear sir,...Good and deep thoughts...I am a Cardiologist and Pattern of Medical studies is highly fact based and causes lack of interest which i see ....My son is in AÌIMS , Delhi...he got 34 rank in NEET 2023...since I passed my MBBS with distinction....I am facing Hard Time explaining him....He loves sports as I did...but Finding who we are are very Important at this stage....Parents are key in Helping them...as at this stage options are too many...Focus and Finding New Ambition is slow ....However it is all Hard Reality Medicine is actually not so logical as Physics...
SIR ik this is not your niche but can u pls tell /please make video on how to efficiently study for adv from now itself , im dropper and my target in mains is 170-180 and in adv under 2-3k . I completed modern physics , 4 chp of maths and 0 in chem at (adv level) . My hope of jee adv is fading away and i dont want that 🥹💔💔💔
JEE ADVANCED IS GOOD but if you can’t do it right now try finding something you genuinely like and develop it
Sir, it is very challenging to handle young kid of 18,19 years old.My son has got admission in first year and concerned about his food and sleeping pattern what he is developing. Being student of JU hostels 25 years back,i knew what is good or bad.Do not have that confidence on my son. Only thing we can guide him from distance,but worried how he will manage and move forward. Pray to the almighty.
This is a feeling which is shared by many parents. But you have to have a little faith on your son. At the same time, please try to periodically discuss everything with him without making him feel that he is reporting to you!
@@Prof_JC Agreed sir,he should not have feeling that he is reporting to us.Eager to meet you in KGP as few of my classmates and hostel mates from JU are your colleagues in KGP. You are doing an excellent job by helping parents how to handle the situation where we have already jeopardized by involving ourselves too much in JEE days. First year few kolkata student from your college was appreciating resturant and foods they enjoyed in KGP after mid sem exam. Appreciate for such excellent atmosphere in iit kgp, we want to see kids happy after such inhuman JEE efforts.
Sir could you please teach engineering mechanics...like friction , center of gravity and all those concepts...as per nits syllabus??
Most required sir.... please
These topics are part of jee syllabus
Nice and informative video Professor. This is definitely meant for my husband. I will ask him to see this.
There are lot of parents, who are behind the marks, more than the students themselves. They undergo the peer pressure so much, to put their child into limelight. This video is the need of the hour.
Prof, with all due respect, did you use any filter, you look like a class 12 student. No offence pls.
Thank you, as always! No, madam, no filter at all. I didn't even edit the video except cut the beginning and the end of the recording a bit.
@@Prof_JC ok👍🏼
Sir on another note, I have sent you a mail yesterday with my son’s work. Pls have a look at it, when you find time.
I checked my email. It's not there. Can you please resend?
@@Prof_JC Sir, resent again. Pls try.
SIR PLEASE TELL THERE ARE TOTAL HOW MANY PERCENT DROPPERS IN IIT AND YOU ARE DROPPER OR NOT
Sir was a dropper at his time
Yes, I was a dropper. But I don't know about the percentage of droppers in IIT.
@@Prof_JC SIR PLEASE GUESS
