With the board exams looming large, class X and XII students
are busy revising the lessons studied throughout the year. This brings us to
the much debated question: ’should students be allowed to study along with
their peers?’
At the outset, it might seem like a no-brainer that when
children from the same age bracket come together it can only lead to whiling of
time, discussions that are not related to studies and playing on gadgets; in a
nut shell, a complete no-no from the adult clan.

However, if you analyze such an arrangement objectively, you
would be convinced of its benefits and effectiveness. While there is a possibility of children
losing focus and seriousness, thereby slowing down even the sincere and
hard-working lot in the group, it can serve as a huge motivation factor and
also a check-point for students to perform better.
A healthy competition can be generated within the group to
ensure that everyone is using his/her time effectively to attain a specific goal.
Exchange of ideas and better grasping of concepts can be possible when students
share their knowledge within the group.
Time can also effectively used when chapters get divided
between the members of the group and later an amalgamation of ideas and
concepts takes place. It can be a win-win situation provided some amount of
self-discipline is maintained.
