Abstract

This paper explores the evolution of education in India during the medieval period, focusing on the influence of Muslim educational practices. The medieval era saw significant transformations in the education system, which became increasingly influenced by Islamic methods. Education was categorized into primary and higher education, with primary education provided in maktabs and higher education in madrasas. Innovations in teaching and learning strategies emerged during this time.
