Answer: He grinds out graduates who are similar to each other as if he were running a factory.

Explanation:

Mr. Thomas Gradgrind is the notorious school board Superintendent in Dickens's novel Hard Times. He is committed to the pursuit of a profitable business. The use of Gradgrind as a surname follows Dickens' habit of representing people from the merchant class as grasping and selfish, dedicated to grinding down workers without fair compensation or any clemency.

His name is used commonly to describe people who are hard and exclusive concerned with facts and numbers.

What is the conceptual definition of students?
Simora [160]

A person who is registered in a school or other educational institution is called a student.

  • An operational definition just explains how to measure a notion; a conceptual definition explains what the idea signifies. By explaining how your constructions connect to other constructs, a conceptual definition explains what your constructs are. This explanation is abstract, as are all of the structures it discusses. A student is a person who is learning something, whether it is a skill or a specific subject.
  • Student(noun) a learner, pupil, scholar, especially one who attends school or who seeks information from books or from professional professors; as, students of an academy, college, or university; a medical student; a hard student.

Thus this is the conceptual definition of students.
