A good idea used in a bad way

We all are quite familiar with the creative question method. It is a common belief that through this method, students do not need to memorise their lessons. From the very beginning, it was expected that this method would make a positive change in our education sector. However in reality, we see just the opposite is happening. As soon as this method was introduced and made operative, some fraudulent business personnel started to publish illegal guide books. The students now memorise these guide books without reading the main textbooks and comprehending the topic at all. Even many educational institutions refer specific guide books to their students. As a result, the entire project of initiating the creative question method has fallen apart causing irreparable harm to the young generation.
