This news is good one. But, the exact flavor of the so-called innovative approach can be felt only after its implementation. The focus of education should be such that the students can enjoy learning. The approach of the syllabus should be student oriented. I am eagerly waiting for the next academic session to observe the effect of the change of syllabus.
