Epistemic Curiosity Decay (ECD)
Most of the students has lesser interest to know something new and apply that knowledge into higher degree thinking and betterment of society.
Incomplete Learning Syndrome (ILS)
Students are just gaining factual information and unable to proceed further to access the deeper layers of cognition in academic learning.
Uncritical thinking Stigma (UTS-I)
By suffering from the over-flood of information, they are unable to avoid uncritical thoughts in academics, personal and professional life.
Uncreative Thinkinh Stigma (UTS-II)
They are suffering from the monotonicity of ideas and seldom open to new ideas, ways and strategies to experiment and go with uncertainty.
Poor Information Management (PIM)

Ineffective Decision Making (IDM)
In this information age, they are unable to take better-informed decisions due to the vagueness of uncritical piece of information around.
Lower Scientific Temperament (LST)
They are suffering from LST due to lack of various cognitive traits like objectivity, skepticism, open-mindedness, curiosity, rationality etc.

How ICEC Works
Know how ICEC solves this major issue - NID
This program solves one of the major cognitive barriers - 'Natural Inquisitiveness Decay' for students in their path of learning. And helps them to enrich their true potential through better rational mindset. As we know inside a classroom, few students ask questions; others are not. It's very hard to see the mass active engagements in a class. And it's due to so many classroom cultural Inertia. Lack of the culture of enhancing curiosity of the students is one of them.
The other side of story is though some schools succeed at igniting curiosity of the students, through better teaching methodologies; but it's quite become hard to establish and sustain it through out the academic year. So a consistent habit forming culture is the need of the hour to enhance the intellectual curiosity of the students; because other goals of 21st-century learning will become just a by-product of it for students.
NEP-2020 also suggests to build an interactive and fun classrooms, where questions are encouraged, with creative, collaborative, and exploratory activities for deeper and more experiential learning. So learning will thus move away from rote memorization; if and when rote learning is used, it will always be pre-accompanied by context and motivation, and post-accompanied by analysis, discuss and applications.
Therefore, to reorient the entire school education curriculum; we first need to germinate the cognitive freedom inside the classroom, backed by a strong culture, where students will feel safe and secure to learn and achieve all the learning goals. To inculcate scientific temper in the school culture and encouraging both the teachers and students to enjoy their respective roles of learning, purposefully, we have developed a 10-pilar based strategic solution - Intellectual Curiosity Enhancement Culture (ICEC), that will provide a year-long support mechanism to boost the scientific temperament by enhancing their intellectual curiosity.

Identity, it creates
After implementing ICEC, the following value-traits of your school will be spread
The school is treated as the temple of knowledge and wisdom for a child. This is the place where we expect to nurture the most important assets of our country - children. By providing a kind of holistic environment, we want to grow them up to their fullest potential and prepare them for jobs that have not yet been created, technologies that have not yet invented, and problems that we don't yet know will arise. And for that we just need to make them life-long active and efficient learner, who stays curious all time, in all contexts related to their growth.
