Without any doubt, we humans can’t envision our lives without technology in the cutting edge era as it has become such a fundamental piece of our life. That maybe is one of the crucial reasons adding to the huge advancements in every sector, especially education, that has advanced so quickly, changing the education sphere inside and out, causing renowned changes around the world.

the needle on learning. The reason perhaps is that the first generation of EdTech applications has focused largely on the one way broadcast of content - leaving the teacher out of the equation. “ Joining hands on the same, Manmeet Khurana, CEO & Founder, The Ultimate Knowledge said, “EdTech is developing quite rapidly with many new & interesting services being launched. Currently, adoption of AR in educational apps is growing every year. Besides, Artificial Intelligence in education will continue to mature in 2020. However, the barometer of success is whether we are delivering an education ecosystem which is affordable and accessible to all and provides learners with the opportunity to thrive in 21st-century careers solving 21stcentury challenges.” “We are providing a dynamic encyclopedia which aims to develop general knowledge and general awareness in the minds of the children right from an early age. Our mission is to make education accessible and affordable, a key factor in revolutionising the education system in India”, Khurana added. As we are approaching to the end of another year, what people would be inquisitive to know is what all technological reforms will take the landscape forward in the coming year. Talking of reforms, trends are something that implies for a short period of time, creating a huge impact. The year 2019 experienced the entry of such trends that carried the huge potential of developing and transforming the education industry in a more personalized manner. Commenting on the disruptive changes in the education sector as a whole, Shaji Thomas, Chairman, Entab Infotech said, “With virtual reality, augmented reality and 3D videos & simultations in the education sector, we are trying to deliver the best student experience , ensuring no teacher is ever limited by the walls of the classroom.” Without further ado, let’s dive in to give a glance on the promising technological trends that has had a huge impact in 2019 and is expected to collectively change the way students learn and teachers teach in the year 2020.
Augmented Reality- When Learning Becomes Fun Won’t it be fun to interact with virtual objects just by body movements and hand gestures?

Well, we have come far away from just seeing new words and contexts on paper. Thanks to augmented reality that enable kids to use their voices and gestures to explore immersive worlds tailored to specific lessons. To make things more interesting for the users, 3D models and animations are mixed with videos from the real world which provides a brand new way of interaction with the virtual world. Sounds fun, isn’t it?
Artificial Intelligence is Everywhere! AI isn’t new anymore! It has already been applied to education primarily in some tools that help develop skills and testing systems. As AI educational solutions continue to mature, the stakes are high on AI that it will help bridge the gaps in learning and teaching thereby empowering teachers to do more than before. AI is already helping schools in grading!. Current AI technology is able to automate grading of multiple choices and with more advancement and it is expected to grade more than the standard assessment. The mundane tasks too can be managed by AI, as well as communication with students.
Video Based Learning- The Buzzword According to the latest study by Cisco, by the end of this year, more than 80% of the internet traffic would be driven by video consumption, which means the upcoming year would witness more growth in internet traffic from the videos. With approximately 2.3 billion active users on youtube, watching various videos for edutainment will make learning more engaging

and helping in upgrading skills. Instead of reading long paragraphs, students would also prefer to watch videos for better understanding and knowledge retention process. Interestingly, innovative technologies like smart Television, Android-powered televisions are likely to increase video consumption for the users in the coming years.
Gamification- The Game Changer A game, in any form, drives a motivation. From sparking a good conversation to catching up fast in classrooms, gamification in education has made learning all the more engaging for the students. With technology getting advanced, gamification, simply gives you the freedom to experiment without the fear of failure. Apart from giving a boost to classroom interaction, gamification also plays a significant part in helping a student understand the context and outcome of a particular situation. Imparting learning in a gaming scenario helps students improve their powers of retention and comprehension.
Online Education is Here to Stay When things like ticket booking, watching TV shows, ordering food are becoming online; education is still behind in terms of online education delivery. Number of internet users is increasing rapidly with increase in smartphones. It has provided good opportunity to deliver education online. In India, how online learners will grow by leaps and bounds? The answer is online for India’s education system.
Cloud computing is a great source for accessing data online, several video lessons and online data are circulated and live sessions are conducted to help students to study at their own convenience. This method proves to be ideal when students are unable to attend classroom lectures. Video messaging applications like Skype and Facetime encourages students for instant chat session with the teachers.
STEAM Learning- Bringing the Change And how can we forget STEAM? An educational approach designed to integrate STEAM subjects with the school curriculum, the purpose of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) education is to balance the divide in global skill shortages is STEAM-related fields. Students learn to think outside the box, engage in hands-on learning, work collaboratively with others, express their creative ideas, and

empower them to unleash their innovative skills to bring about change in the world.
Social Media is the Becoming the Ultimate Priority Not just limited to posting your holiday snaps online, it is an interactive platform that can enhance your learning and communication abilities. There is no doubt that social media has been criticised a lot because of the effect it has on the way to students gaining & retaining information. But what we ignore is the plentiful opportunities that it brings for interaction as well as learning. There are several reasons for using internet-based media as a positive tool for children.

Cloud Technology is Picking up Pace
Big Data Comes Knocking the Door Big data has great potential to answer some of the much-asked questions like “Where my student is lagged behind”. Why? How can I help him improve? Big Data comes as a savior to help you accurately identify the pain area of the student as well as its learning level. Detailed assessment tools tell what the management of school needs and help forecast and support student’s performance in school annual exams, external competitive exams and board exams. With the amount of data teachers get, they can identify and group the students as per their needs and offer the required remedial support. So data is helping schools transform and progress. While educators are going crazy for incorporating various technologies into their curriculum, experts, on the other hand, believe that these trends are not here only to stay, but to grow the industry rapidly. Here’s hoping for a bright one for all of us!

Why Students Need Guidance & Counselling in Education to Build Their Future Career counselling must start in the school itself, especially for Class 9-11 students because these are the academic levels where students select a specific stream as per their specialisation and interests, writes Rumani Arora of Elets News Network (ENN).
T
he latest incident of a 19-year-old IIT Madras student allegedly committing suicide after being depressed over scoring low marks in the internal examination is an eyeopener to the amount of academic stress that students undergo. Notably, this is the fourth case of suicide inside the IIT Madras campus this year, and fifth since December 2018. According to the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), one student commits suicide in India every hour. Unfortunately, India has been witnessing one of the highest suicide rates among people aged between 15 to 29 years. The most vulnerable group being the one studying in Class 10 and Class 12, and the major reason is the board examination related pressure. Sadly, depression among school and college students – is becoming a grave issue, especially in metro cities. It is high time for educational institutions to address the issue of academic stress seriously and provide remedial measures including counselling for students who are facing problems like stress and depression. Recently, Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) launched the ‘Smiling Schools Project’ after a student from Municipal

Corporation committed suicide. The project is aimed at training the teachers and principals to identify the students facing mental or emotional stress. Anurag Tripathi, Secretary, CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) also raised concern on the mounting academic pressure on the students. In a recent interview with Elets News Network (ENN), he urged the teachers, principals and parents to create a stress-free environment for students at schools and at home, where they feel free and confident to think and innovate.
Why Career Counseling? ‘One size fits all’ approach to education, i.e., assuming all students learn in the same manner, will not work in the present scenario. We simply cannot expect every child to aspire to be an engineer or doctor as every individual is unique in his/her own way and possess different capabilities. Career Counselling can help an individual understand one’s own self, as well as work trends, so that one can take an informed decision about career and education. And not only this, career
counseling can help manage a diverse range of problems such as low concentration levels to poor time management, trust issues with family to disagreement between parents and children about making career choices.
Communicating the same thought, Sarika Babar, Principal & Director of Academics, Clara Global School, Pune, said, “We at Clara often invite those people as chief guests who have taken a different career path in life, so that our parents and students are aware of the various career avenues, other than the traditional doctors and engineers”.
Need of Career Counselling in Schools Career counselling must start in the school itself, especially for Class 9-11 students because these are the academic levels where students select a specific stream as per their specialisation and interests. It is to be noted that many students are not satisfied with the stream they choose and tend to change it; this happens in lack of proper guidance about options available according to their interest and different education stream. Many counselors, nowadays, prefer to conduct psychometric tests to analyse interests of students because usually, students are perplexed between their diverse interests but these psychometric tests help figure out students’ capabilities towards each of their interests. “Catch them right and catch them young philosophy makes our students stress free. It is essential for a school to conduct career counselling session periodically and also conduct Brain profiling of students to understand the preferences at an early stage,” said Lakshmi Rao Kadiyala, Academic Director, Jain Group of Schools, Hyderabad. In the present time, where career options are continuously evolving, it has become significant to make students aware and help them see beyond the horizon. Highlighting the same, Dr. Ruchi Singh, Headmistress, Seth M A High School, Mumbai, said, “Jobs have emerged that didn’t exist five or ten years ago. The world of work well equipped with the latest technologies is fast and challenging. We in our school provide a platform that focuses on students as well as parents about the careers”. Emphasising on developing skills among students, Kavisha Khurana, Founder Director, The Chintels School, Kanpur, said, “We are making our students ready for skilled based India by telling them about career options in modern India which are different from conventional careers”. Besides, there is also a significant need to provide students with hands-on experience pertaining to different career fields. “We organise an event called MarketKshetra that is planned, organised, strategised and executed entirely by our students from grades as early as 6th and 7th, giving them hands-on exposure to handle finances, get into the role of planners and executors, thereby taking career counselling

Developing Mechanism
Career
Counselling
Understanding the present scenario, it goes without saying that there is an urgent need to build a career counselling mechanism panIndia. But whose responsibility is this - schools or parents? Does the government have a role to play? Here’s what our edu-leaders think: Kavita Singh, Principal, Ram Ratna Vidya Mandir, Thane, Maharashtra, believes that counseling must begin from home. “Parents act as a very important factor which the child considers before making a career choice. In an academic session, counseling sessions are arranged for the parents in the RRVM campus which are taken by in-house and expert Psychologists”. “For any individual, the impact of people and interconnectedness with the environment helps in deciding the career path beginning from home and reaching educational institutions. The exposure to the world of work does not confine to one particular organisation or government,” said, Shobha Rao, ICT Head, Ajmera Global School, Mumbai. Dr Kavita Bajpai, Director, The International School of Thrissur, believes that onus lies on schools but government also has a crucial role to play. She said, “Primarily the school should take this initiative as students spend most of their active hours in school. Government has a major role to play by providing the opportunity rising above the caste creed and stratum of society”. Asserting that it’s the responsibility of both schools and universities to develop a career counselling mechanism, Dr. Priti Shrimal, Principal, Billabong High International, Baroda, said, “Career counselling starts from primary school when the children are shown a slice of the myriad professions. This continues to be shaped and nurtured by schools and then transit to university”. She asserted that the role of government lies in capacity building of youth and implement policies and guidelines to ensure that educational institutions provide holistic guidance and have counselling cells with qualified personnel in place.
special feature
The primary aim of career counselling is to help students choose a field that is in sync with their skills and their job expectations. Thus, with proper guidance and career counselling, most candidates end up choosing the right career, and perform their level best, which ultimately helps them build their career and succeed.
to a different level altogether,” said, Seema Negi, Principal, Sanjeevani World School, Mumbai. Sharing the practices followed at her school, Dr. Sangeeta Srivastava, Principal, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Vividhlaxi Vidyalaya, said, “We organise visit to parliaments, field trips to industries, Medical college, NDA, factories, workshops etc on regular basis to gain knowledge about these vocations to make informed choices about career”.
Conclusion With the emergence of technology and innovations, there are lots of rising opportunities with various fields where one can make a better career. Career counselling is instrumental in providing the guidance to students to have a clear vision on what to pursue, the course duration and fees. In modern world, there are numerous career choices available ranging from – medicine to mass communications, marine biology to information technology, engineering to event management and culinary arts to music. Choosing a field of study that is not in tune with the interests or skills of the person concerned could prove disastrous. And that’s where the career counselling comes in.

Leaders’s Perspective
Rejuvenating Schools and Making Quality Education Accessible to All Hon’ble Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath Ji has taken the pledge to improve the basic education in the state. We have launched the ‘Kayakalp Yojna’ in the state so that parents, even from financially sound backgrounds, prefer government schools for their children. Our mission is to eliminate the distinction between rich and poor and make sure every child, irrespective of the stratum of society he/she belongs from, get equal education opportunities, says Dr Satish Chandra Dwivedi, Minister of State for Basic Education (Independent Charge), Government of Uttar Pradesh, in conversation with Arpit Gupta of Elets News Network (ENN). What are your key priorities as the Basic Education Minister? How do you plan to bring innovations and rectify the existing education system? The motto of the Yogi Government is to better the basic education in the state, which is the foundation of the education system of any country. In the last few decades, government schools in UP, owing to lack of due importance, have become the education centres for poor, farmer and weaker section of the society who cannot afford to get their child enrolled in private schools. Hon’ble Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath Ji has taken the pledge to improve the basic education in the state. With this mission, we have launched the ‘Kayakalp Yojna’ in the state so that parents, even from financially sound backgrounds, prefer government schools for their children. The scheme has been instrumental in transforming the face of schools, in terms of infrastructure, better facilities and providing quality education.

What measures have been undertaken by the government to change the mindset of people and inspire them to enroll their wards in government schools? Hon’ble Chief Minister has laid emphasis on the ‘School Chalo Abhiyan’. Our government came into power in March 2017 and we started the work in this direction from the month of June itself. The operations witnessed further spur after the academic session began in April 2018. In the last two-and-a-half-year tenure of our government, the basic schools have witnessed more than 50 lakh new enrollments. Students who were studying in non-recognised

to teachers via ‘Nishtha App’ to facilitate them with best techniques & methods of imparting specific lessons. Besides, we are going to roll out ‘Prerna App’ which will not only help us in monitoring the attendance of teachers and students but also the entire school situation of Uttar Pradesh – be it infrastructure, teaching or MDM; while sitting in our Lucknow office.
Leaders’s Perspective
schools and private schools due to the miserable condition of basic schools have now taken admission in government-run schools. In the last one year, the student enrollment has increased by 28,00,000 and the number is rising continuously. Now, people are seeking recommendations to get their wards admitted in the basic schools. Notably, we have started 15,000 English medium basic schools in the state for the people who are hesitant in pursuing Hindi medium of education. They are being built as model schools with the government giving extra focus on infrastructure. Till now, we have given smart classes to 2,000 such schools and we aim to provide smart classes to all 15,000 schools. So, not only infrastructure, but we are trying to transform the entire teaching-learning pattern as per the modernday requirements. We are making the entire process digital and online to transform our entire education structure that consists of 1, 69,200 schools, 1, 80, 00,000 students and 5, 75,000 teachers. All the aspects of education, such as teaching-learning experience, extra-curricular activities of students, issues related to leaves and pay structure of teachers, GPF and pension, and service book, all concerns are handled digitally. Uttar Pradesh has been awarded ‘Diksha Pioneer Award’ by the Government of India for being the first state to successfully execute the implementation of Diksha Portal. We are providing the online teaching modules
You mentioned about online-learning, smart classes and digitalisation being implemented in the schools of Uttar Pradesh. It means, apart from improving basic education, you are also focusing on incorporating technology in education? Yes, absolutely. It is accepted as a universal fact that by utilising technology, we can deliver better outputs even with minimum resources. With the advent of innovations and technology, the education pattern around the world has been changed drastically. Earlier, students use to face challenges while filling OMR sheets when appearing for engineering, medical or public service examination, which affected their overall results. Recently, our department conducted a Learning Outcome Test for the students of Class 5 to Class 8 to understand their level of learning and accordingly plan further. Along with my delegation, I visited a school for the supervision and it was a delightful sight to witness Class 5 students filling OMR

sheets. Such training (OMR sheets) from an early age will help them while appearing for competitive exams after graduation. We have undertaken several such initiatives and are doing ample use of technology because it was due to the faulty monitoring mechanism that the education system in the state went berserk. In a wide state like Uttar Pradesh, it is impossible to manually monitor hundreds of schools existing in every block. However, now with the online monitoring mechanism, it is easy to supervise every school and identify the flaws and rectify them.
How do you ensure that children from the weaker section of the society residing near the private schools also get admission in the same schools? Out government has given due attention to ensure that schools run by private players keep the door open for the children from weaker section of the society. We have strictly implemented the RTE Act in the state and most of the schools are adhering to the rules & regulations. From this year, we are cross-checking whether schools have given admission to delegated number of students from the weaker section and if not then why. We are making sure that from the next academic session, the RTE Act is strictly followed by all the schools in the state. Apart from this, we are introducing many new activities to ensure the overall personality development of students over and above the academics. From January 03 to 07, 2020, we are going to observe a week celebrating “Freedom of Expression” – where students will be encouraged to take up their choice of

activities be it speech, debate, poetry, art, etc. On the occasion of Swami Vivekanand Jayanti on January 12, we are organising a state-level programme in KD Singh Babu Stadium, Lucknow, involving our teachers, students and edu-leaders. Besides, we are going to highlight the best education practices being followed in the state and recognise individuals who have helped the cause of education (financially), by covering them in a monthly magazine. On the Human Resource portal, we have uploaded all the information about the department, our teachers, officials, and students. We have also introduced a mandatory 15 minute Yoga session after the morning assembly prayer in the schools. Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji introduced the national programme “Khelo India” to boost the sports culture and improve India’s medal tally in Commonwealth Games, Asian Games and Olympics. On similar lines, our Chief Minister also desires that sportsman from a wide-spread state like Uttar Pradesh must rise & shine on international platforms. Under this, we have made mandatory last period in schools dedicated to sports and physical activities. We are also making efforts to build small libraries in every school. Besides, following the guidelines issued by the Government of India, we have started kitchen gardens in the schools. Overall, we are dedicated to making our schools modern and hi-tech to match the global standards. The mission of Yogi Government is to eliminate the distinction between rich and poor and make sure all the children, irrespective of the stratum of society (economic, social etc) they belong from, get the equal opportunities for education.

What are the initiatives taken by your school to make it safe and secure for the students?
Chandan Agarwal
Chairman, G.D. Goenka Public School
Built over 4 acres along with world class infrastructure in Kanpur, what is the mission and vision of your school?
Technology plays a pivotal role in Education. How it is making an impact in the classrooms?
MISSION: Our mission is to become the number one school that is a preferred choice of parents and students like. We focus all our efforts towards providing the students with the best of the facilities and resources and helping them grow up to their full potential and grow in all areas—be it physical, intellectual, moral or social. VISION: Our vision is to provide value based education that is globally benchmarked with the world. Our endeavor is to grow our students into aesthetically rich, intellectually aware and well grounded individuals capable of fulfilling their dreams and aspirations and contributing positively to the society.
Being one of the most futuristic schools, the use of technology becomes quintessential to our teaching pedagogy. Lesson plans based on VAK technology (visual, audio and kinesthetic) cater to students with varied intelligences. All our classrooms are equipped with smart classes which definitely are very helpful in explaining typical concepts in a smooth and easily comprehensible method. Workshops on integrating technology with teaching are frequently conducted for our facilitators.
Along with academic competition, schools need skill and propagation for survival. At G.D. Goenka, how do you cope up with competition?
Education sector is going through a challenging period at present. However, in spite of all the obstacles, we are completely focused towards the holistic development of our students and have never compromised as long as the future of our students is concerned. As stated earlier, the school has collaborated with renowned Sports and Performing arts academies to provide an unparalleled, professional training, and hands on experience that will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in chiseling the potential of our students and enabling them to become the Champions of Tomorrow.
Since its inception, G.D. Goenka has not considered itself to be part of any competition. Our ideology, promotes relentless efforts to surpass one’s own limits, to continuously improve. We focus on harnessing the inherent talents and potential of the students and providing them with frequent opportunities to showcase their skills. We feel immense pride in sharing that ours is the only school

The safety and well being of our students in the school premises has been our major concern. The school is under the surveillance of more than 100 cameras. Each school bus also has cameras installed and can be tracked at all times with the help of the GPS. Guards are on duty on every gate of the school 24x7. The school does not permit senior students to commute by themselves to school and vice-versa. Id cards and pick up authority cards are mandatory for guardians and parents.

What are your future projects or initiatives to emerge as one of the best schools in the country?
Policymaker’s Perspective
CBSE: Shifting Education
Paradigm from Rote Learning to Experiential Learning In the last few years, CBSE has undertaken various efforts to shift the education paradigm from rote learning to experiential learning. “Experiential learning means – learning by doing – a system where students undertake projects, activities, go to field, develop sensitivity and learn to face challenges”, says Anurag Tripathi, Secretary, CBSE, in conversation with Chandan Anand of Elets News Network (ENN).
What has been your topmost priority ever since you took over the charge as CBSE Secretary? As CBSE secretary and as board representative, the topmost priority of the organisation is to conduct Class 10th and 12th board examination. To adopt worldwide practices and ensure skill and value based education is imparted to the students in schools. We have made the last CBSE Board examination error-free and leak-proof. Besides, digital innovations were followed in the process of conducting examinations. We have changed the assessment process internally. Further, we have focused on capacity building of teachers to reduce the problems faced by students during re-evaluation. More than 2,00,000 teacher evaluators have been given training. These efforts have lead to smooth conduct of Class 10th and Class 12th board examinations. To enhance the learning outcome and academic quality, we have undertaken various innovative measures that can augment teaching-learning process, improve experiential learning, boost skill development in students and make them innovative & creative thinkers. We want to ensure that 2 Crore children studying in our schools not just rely on rote learning but must possess necessary skills and can serve as value based citizens of the country.
What initiatives CBSE has been undertaking to make sure that schools shift from rote learning to experiential learning smoothly? In last 50 years, there has been an enormous shift in the way education is imparted (studying under tree to smart classrooms) but the practice of rote learning is still existent. This system of one way education doesn’t provide for the way to check the learning outcome of the students – whether their learning has improved and ethics & values are being adopted or not. In the last few years, CBSE has undertaken various efforts to shift the education paradigm from rote learning to experiential

learning. Experiential learning means – learning by doing – a system where students undertake projects, activities, go to field, develop sensitivity and learn to face challenges. Parents and teachers have a big role to play in creating an experiential learning environment for students. We have started capacity building of teachers and principals in the entire country. Last year, 2, 00,000 teachers were trained. This year, more than 1, 00,000 teachers have been trained till now and I am hopeful by the end of this financial year, the figure will cross 3, 00,000. Secondly, we are focusing on Parents Orientation
What is your take on Draft New Education Policy? How it is going to transform the face of education in India? The most important aspect of Draft New Education Policy is that now ‘education’ has come in the priority list of the government. The education budget will definitely increase which will lead to development of better human resource. Secondly, this education policy is seriously focusing on capacity building of teachers and principals – who are the ultimate source of imparting knowledge to students. Further, it lays a great emphasis on Skill & Vocational training of students to ensure they have the necessary expertise to earn their livelihood in the future. The policy also stresses a lot on Early Childhood Education –on how to ensure natural development of children from the tender age. There is also due emphasis on assessment, board examination and internal assessment. I am hopeful that the new education policy is going to bring a huge transformation in the education system of India, in the years to come.

Did the practice of preponing Board exams by 15 days this year, reap the desired benefits? Will the next year’s examination time table be same as this year’s?
Policymaker’s Perspective
– to ensure grooming & skilling of students and building right attitude & behavior at home, where they spend maximum time. Thirdly, we are focusing on infrastructural changes to boost digital education. Fourthly, we have tried to change the module of the board examination question paper –integrating some creative & innovative questions that cannot be answered by memorizing but need thought process, research and understanding to answer. Fifthly, we have changed the assessment system by including objective type questions, one word Q/A, True/False, Short Q/A etc.
Like this year, the board examination 2020 will also commence 15 days earlier. This pre-poning process has been done for vocational & skill subjects and minor subjects in which only a few number of students appear. Earlier, exam time-table used to be two-months long but now we have squeezed it to one month. Further, this year we have completed the assessment/evaluation process in one month instead of two, thanks to technological innovations and efforts undertaken by the department. The core purpose of compressing the examination process is to release results on time thereby allowing ample time to students to apply for admissions in various Indian and International Colleges/ Universities.
Tell us about the new reforms taken by CBSE with regards to its affiliation policy? At present, CBSE heads over 22,000 schools and every year we receive more than 10,000 applications related to affiliation, extension, up-gradation and subject change. Two years ago, we shifted the affiliation process from offline to online mode. From submitting application to uploading of documents to providing the affiliation, every step is done online. By adopting the latest technology, the process of affiliation has become quite smooth and we have cleared the pending cases of last 6 to 8 years. The introduction of new and innovative technology has made the process simple for us as well as the schools.

The International School of Thrissur: Igniting & Empowering school Perspective
Through Education We believe and follow child centric approach and technology plays a major role there. Effective teaching & learning happens through experiential learning with the help of user friendly digital interface as one of the strongest tools, said Dr Kavita Bajpai, Director, The International School of Thrissur, in an interview with Elets News Network (ENN). mechanisms? Classrooms are such diverse environments. Addressing this diversity is crucial for enhancing the best of teaching-learning and getting the best out of it. How lessons are being taught has an enormous impact on how much the student learn. The understanding, retention, and reproduction of information is greatly influenced by how it’s taught. However, teaching mechanisms and use of tools to better deliver the course is only the big picture. To really improve, we also need to look closely at the way teachers interact with the students; and more importantly, the instructional models used while assessing the need of the learners and teachers vis-à-vis other external constraints like time, space, and money needed for each delivery mechanism.
Dr Kavita Bajpai
Director, The International School of Thrissur
What is the mission and vision of International School of Thrissur? To ignite and empower through education. To provide children a safe and supportive environment that help them reach their full potential.
How are you integrating technology and innovation in the existing curriculum to impart futuristic learning and match the global education standards? With the availability of highly modern and technologically advanced educational equipment, the education has experienced a shift which is so profound that it had actually changed the way things can be learned and it is not only limited to the Chalk & Talk.

What are the challenges that you face in meeting the requirements of different set of students – Toddler, Kindergarten, Elementary School, Middle School, Secondary School and Higher Secondary School. “If we teach today’s students as we taught yesterday’s, we rob them of tomorrow.” - John Dewey. To ensure that we define and redefine our roles constantly to be able to impart quality education, we face and overcome multiple challenges. As we firmly believe that resilience is the key to the way we deal with challenges. The major challenge is to get the right kind of educators on board, train them and retain them. To bring a progressive and balanced curriculum in place which is flexible and child centric in nature and away from the pressure of assessments. To change the mind-set of the parents regarding assessment pattern and beyond grades and marks.
What are your expansion plans? Before commencing the first day of the school, a team of experts with more than 150 years of experience worked tirelessly to create an ecosystem for students, educators and parents. After seeing a positive and overwhelming response in Thrissur we are all set to replicate the model in other parts of the country too.

Billimoria High School: A
school Perspective
Perfect Balance Between Study & Play After decades of working with children and understanding the needs of young minds, we have found that play and the freedom to explore need to be an innate part of our children’s lives says Aditi Goradia, Managing Director, Billimoria High School, Panchgani, in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN). sports and even free time. Our 18 acre campus provides our children with a wide range of sports infrastructure. And each sport is taught by knowledgeable, professional coaches. Every child is encouraged to explore each and every activity on campus.
Today, children lack consistency when it comes to study and play. What are the opportunities offered at Billimoria High School for an overall development of the child?
Aditi Goradia
Managing Director, Billimoria High School, Panchgani
Children in cities are missing out on their childhood. What are the advantages of residential schools like Billimoria High School, when it comes to an ideal childhood? Education is not just about academics. Being a residential school, Billimoria plays a key role in the wholesome development of the children. Our lives are dedicated to creating an environment that is conducive to learning. The air quality index in Panchgani ranges from 50 - 55. Clean air, open spaces, consistent schedules and exposure to a varied range of activities. It’s the ideal environment for a healthy childhood.
With technology making our lives easier and replacing old teaching methods, in what ways has it shaped the teachers at your Institution? After decades of working with children and understanding the needs of young minds, we have found that play and the freedom to explore need to be an innate part of our children’s lives. Extensive research shows that physical activities enable children to perform better in academics. At Billimoria, sports and play are a part of the daily routine. We ensure a healthy balance of academics, co-curricular activities,

It’s a fine balance. Technology and education must meet somewhere in the middle. At BHS, we have found that technological resources should be picked with a healthy understanding of the needs of the children as well as the capacity of the adults who will be using it. Keeping these factors in mind, technological resources such as our Milgrasp School Management App, the Robomate + Flip Classroom Program, the Univariety Career Program and several other basic tech advancements have helped our teachers broaden their scope as educators.
What are the challenges on board that still need to be addressed? We work with children. They are the future of the world. It’s a big responsibility, one we take very seriously. The need for progress and growth are never ending. Thus, the challenges are never ending. But we love it!
How does the school meet expectations of parents and requisite Government standards simultaneously? The only way for our children to grow positively is if every stakeholder involved is onboard with a single goal: the future of our children. This includes parents and policy makers. As a school, our role is to ensure a fine balance between everyone involved. There are aspects of our children’s lives that only those of us responsible for their formal education can know and understand. At BHS we ensure that our parents understand the needs and aspirations of our children. Keeping in constant touch with Government representatives, policies and directives enables us to maintain a connect with the countries movement towards progressive education as a whole.
Mount Abu Public School:
school Perspective
Empowering students to build a sustainable future At Mount Abu Public School, the approach is to impart education that integrates 21st Century skills with sustainable practices to cultivate student responsibility and innovation, among students says Jyoti Arora, Principal, Mount Abu Public School, Delhi in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN). the school is the clear reflection of the ideology of the school that technology is a vital component of learning in today’s era. Every subject learning is integrated with technological tools for better clarity and hands on learning which gives a practical approach. The children are engaged in handling the tools for a better understanding. The Astronomy Lab is a perfect place for the students to learn the intricacies of the universe and the life beyond the planet earth. The introduction of these two technological tools has indeed made the learning joyful and creative with long lasting impact.
Jyoti Arora
Principal, Mount Abu Public School, Delhi
Mount Abu’s vision statement reads – “Passionate urge for excellence at par”. How far you have been successful in integrating it in the teaching-learning practices being followed at the school? The vision aptly describes the sternnous effort of the school to let everyone get driven towards realising the potential to reach the zenith of excellence. The whole curriculum is designed in sync with the vision of involving and integrating the practices among the students. The collaborative learning with the schools abroad broadens the perspective of the students to think beyond the four walls of the classroom and contribute their bit at the global level. The passion of every individual is driven towards the right track to let it blossom into luminosity of brilliant accomplishment.
Mount Abu has become the first school in Delhi to have ‘Astronomy Lab’. Besides, you have also integrated ‘Atal Tinkering Lab’ in the school premises. How the technology-based and handson learning experience is helping the students? The establishment of Astronomy Lab and Atal tinkering lab in

How you make sure to provide a happy and safe learning environment where students can experience opportunities beyond the classroom? Now a days more and more families have turned nuclear, so there is a greater emphasis on ensuring thachildren are provided opportunities for interaction and development in a safe and secure environment. Here is a greater emphasis on using researched curriculum and modern tools to create an interactive learning environment for young minds rather than simply filling in time. So I personally feel that till the ambience is not well suited, the impact of learning does not come at par. It is to ensure that the children are strong in every aspect including emotional, intellectual and psychological index. Every care is taken to let children develop into skilled and valued individual.
How is Mount Abu School working to promote UNSDGs 2030 agenda? I feel highly delighted to share the various endeavours taken by Mount Abu Public School to promote UNSDGs. The school also has a deep vision of continuing with its aim of spreading the true spirit of UNSDGs far and wide. Rather I should say that we have integrated the curriculum in such a way that children learn the significance of the goal through the daily activities. We have our Annual school Souvenir also based on SDG theme and we tried to create maximum awareness among the children for the sustainability. Sending the children for interactions with the eminent personalities associated with UN agencies was a great experience for them to cherish.
Springdale High School:
School E Perspective
Blending Traditional Academic Values With 21st Century Ambition The success of Springdale lies with the strong grit and determination of the dedicated teachers, efficient administrators, ever supportive parents and the pride of Springdale High School, the students, says Dr. Shahnaz Ahmed, Chairperson, Springdale High School, Jorhat, in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN) How has been the journey in the school space so far? What lies behind the sources of Springdale High School? Over a period of 30 years, the journey of Springdale High School has been very challenging and exciting. The school has come a long way through years of hard work, dedication, love and together. Born in a garage in a quaint tea town in Jorhat on 19th March 1991, Springdale came a long way excelling in every area of educational arena. It hasn’t been an easy journey to bring Springdale to where it stands today. Through ups and downs, highs & lows, with immense passion and nurturing have our institution grown into this beautiful- ‘Tree of life’. The strong idea of blending traditional academic values with 21st century ambition, the teachers along with the stakeholders work tirelessly in shaping students for the current times. We prepare the students for life and not only to pass exams. This strong idea is reflected in enriched experiences of students- in academics, cultural activities, sports, leadership programmers’. Superior board result is and outcome of rigorous

With the number of schools opening in every corner of the city, what lies behind the success of your institution? Sprindalites are taught to believe that “Dreams are achievable”. The success of Springdale lies with the strong grit and determination of one and all associated with the school- The dedicated teachers, efficient administrators, ever supportive parents and of course our pride- the students of ‘Springdale High School’.

are adopted for a holistic development of students while reading, listening and playing? Education for me is not a preparation for life. It is life itself and when education is life we need to become it interesting and innovative at every step of teaching – learning practices. It is very important to deliver passion and wow element while teaching and lecturing. A classroom has to be a party to excellence in education. If children are shown respect, warmth and interest they would run through walls for teachers- They need to be seen, to be heard and to be understand and until and unless it is truly child centric such things cannot be fulfilled. Gone are the days when we used to think of having rows and columns. Let there be a circular, face to face, semi circular arrangement of seating where there is no back bencher at all. A good, innovative teacher must always update with the time with knowledge not only in one’s subject but in general. They must have vision to ensure a holistic development of students. The potential of each pupil in reading, listening, and playing should be maximised. Reading in phonic drill system, nursery rhymes, singing, and recitation, story-telling should be encouraged to the highest level. Drill and outdoor games with their age factors is to be encouraged in the school curriculum. The students love and appreciate learning via stories and incidences. This leaves an everlasting mark and impression on their minds with a lesson. To improve reading

What practices does your school follow to ensure effective teacher training progrrame to cater to all aspects of a student’s development? In Springdale, we challenge each student to develop intellectual independence, creativity and curiosity with a sense of responsibility towards each other. In my school, students are kept as First Priority. Any decision that is taken in a school or any developmental program that is conducted, students is the focal point. Teaching in Springdale is designing is tailor made. The concept clarity is given more importance than unnecessary completion of a syllabus. Pupils are kept engaged and involved in classroom teaching. This will enhance the students willingness to learn and to embrace education beyond the classroom. I repeatedly lay emphasis that teachers need to unlearn and relearn. “If we teach our children what we learnt yesterday, we are preparing them neither for today nor for tomorrow”is my dictum. The self advisory aspect in every child is trigged in my school arena. The students are provided with constructive and objective feedback on a regular basis which is unique and creative as to connect students with one another. In Springdale we try to make them compact learners .For example, if a lesson is to taught in English, integration with Science , Social Studies and even Mathematics and other languages are co-related with it.

Critical Need to Change the Definition of Education Our notion of education and its purpose needs a significant revision. We must begin by acknowledging the limitations of conventional textbook learning and also revise the way we evaluate students’ abilities, writes Dr Chandrakanta R Pathak, Principal and CEO, HVB Global Academy, Mumbai for Elets News Network (ENN).

e live in an increasingly mercurial, inconstant world thanks to the unmitigated explosion in technology in the last fifteen years. Consider, for instance, how modern smartphones and social media have redefined how we interact with family, friends, relatives and colleagues; how online retail shops such as Amazon and Flipkart have completely altered our shopping preferences and habits; and, on large-scale manufacturing front, production of goods such as furniture, clothing, household appliances, automobiles and even food are being rapidly automated. We now have Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms that can compose poems, write stories, trade stocks (High-Frequency Trading) and learn to mimic artistic styles of virtuoso painters such as Van Gogh and Johannes Vermeer in just six hours. Thus, our way of life has undergone complete revision in the last ten years. This dazzling pace of change is unprecedented in the history of mankind, and so are challenges that follow from it. One such consequent challenge that we currently face is the rate at which knowledge and skills that were once considered useful and employable are being rendered obsolete. As a result, workers with lower-order and conventional skills are becoming increasingly unemployable and are being replaced by machines and AI algorithms at an alarming rate. Therefore, it is natural that we should feel anxious and ask ourselves—what are we doing to ensure a safe and secure future

for our children? Are we equipping them with the tools and skills needed to survive in a world rife with unpredictable challenges? This naturally leads us to question the efficacy of our education system— the institution that has the mandate to train our youth in skills needed to survive and thrive in a technology-driven, inconstant world. It is not possible to, nor should we try to, check the juggernaut that technological progress is. Instead, we must come to terms with the reality that for our children to understand and successfully address future challenges, their knowledge and skillset must also evolve in step with the change. The fact, however, is that the conventional school curricula have remained stagnant, in relative terms, for more than a decade. Almost all modern challenges are essentially interdisciplinary in nature and, therefore, demand a more holistic and application-oriented approach to education. In contrast, conventional school curricula offer compartmentalized subjects that do not venture beyond the confines of traditional disciplines and are rarely of any practical utility. Moreover, conventional annual examinations evaluate students on a few narrowly defined metrics that fail to accommodate the many skills and abilities that are useful in today’s increasingly complex world. Important skills such as creative critical thinking, complex problem solving, empathy and human resources management that cannot be automated do not figure into most curricula and assessment methodology. It is evident from these reflections that our notion of education and its purpose needs a significant revision. We must begin by acknowledging the limitations of conventional textbook learning. We must also revise the way we evaluate students’ abilities. As teachers, we must ensure that training programmes we offer to our students integrate a kaleidoscopic range of subjects consistent with the characteristics of challenges they are likely to face in future. As parents, we need to accept the utility of vast knowledge that lies outside the purview of textbooks and become open to the practical utility of a wide range of skills that are not included in formal curricula. We must also become open to enlisting the help and support of those businessmen, industrialists, engineers and scientists who are at the forefront of change. It is high time we acknowledge the increasing complexity of the process of modern education and view it as a collaborative effort of parents, teachers and other stakeholders in society to ensure that our students are equipped with best tools needed to thrive in a world replete with unpredictable challenges.

School Perspective
At Chintels, our vision is to develop well rounded, confident and responsible individuals by providing a welcoming, happy, safe, and supportive learning environment, says Nandita Basak, Principal, The Chintels School, Ratanlal Nagar, Kanpur, in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN). Chintels has completed 20 years of successful operations. How do you rate the journey so far and what’s the roadmap ahead? At Chintels, with the motto of “Always More, Always Better” of Jyoti (Light), Preeti (Love), Shanti (Peace) and Neeti (Justice), we strive to make this journey of our children a valuable learning experience.

The Chintels School: Preparing the Tender Minds for tomorrow
School Perspective
We believe that no other investment promises a bigger return than an investment in skills in the class room, says Smita Dhawan, Principal, The Chintels School, Kalyanpur, Kanpur, in conversation with Elets News network (ENN). From its inception 1989 today, Chintels is a renowned name in Kanpur, how has been the journey so far? Every journey begins with a dream and a dreamer. Years back a dream of establishing a school, making it a brand, seeing it touch the pinnacles of success gives true delight. The Chintels School keeps adding shades of vibrancy, glorifying it and soaring on to new heights. One goal in mind and many efficient and supportive team members have turned out this dream into reality. This school is the pillar of our dreams, our consistent efforts aim at making it the best place to nurture the tender minds. Overall development of the children, ensuring their happiness and giving them a comfortable platform is the foremost motive of our school. The journey has been remarkable because of the priceless contribution of the students, parents, teachers and the worthy stakeholders associated with the Chintels community. Team Chintels believes in creating a high in every field and also aims to reach the zenith.
Technology is transforming the teaching – learning practices in education sector. How is Chintels leveraging the technology for holistic development of its students? Technology at present has the tremendous potential to transform teaching and learning practices in education sector. We are passionate about turning this potential into a reality. We believe this will be fuelled by innovative teaching practices that will provide students with learning experiences that promote 21st century skills. Providing teachers and learners with access to technology is paramount; providing future ready technology skills to students that will help them to be successful. This forms the foundation of our holistic approach in education. Students and teachers use collaboration and communication tools such as calendars, document sharing, instant messaging, audio – visual aids, online exams and various educational apps contribute to the learning process. Shared resource computing is another way teachers are helping to create the 21st century campus. We believe that no other investment promises a bigger return than an investment in skills in the class room. This belief is the foundation of our IT academy program. The IT academy program also provides education and staff with professional development opportunities.

We strongly believe that technology has to be integrated in the learning cycle and we must empower teachers and students to use it well. To say the clichĂŠ, technology can only be an enabler. Different technological innovations were adopted by Seth M.R. Jaipuria Schools for the holistic development of its students. More emphasis was laid on digitally enabled classrooms with a vastrepository of animated, lesson specific, 3D and 2D multimedia modules, for all subjects. Also, with the help of VR & AR Apps, students get the opportunity to learn more. They get to know the information related to the subject matter more easily.
In your opinion, what is to be done with the latest technology to get better results, instead of replacing teachers with these artificial learning tools and apps? Rather than replacing teachers with artificial learning tools & apps, we need to arm them with the latest technology, so that they can better deliver results through teaching. The focus should be more on innovation with pedagogy. Whilst the teachers may have intention to use technology, they might not have the bandwidth to invest time in research and upgrading their skills.
What are the key aspects that make your Institution perform better than other schools? There are many aspects that help us perform better than other schools. At Seth M.R. Jaipuria Schools, our focus is on overall erudition, value-addition, character building & transformation.

Real-Time Tracking: A boon Industry Perspective
for Parents
T
hree decades ago, working parents and full-time parents were worried about their child’s well-being. Working parents depended and relied on grandparents, extended family, full-time domestic help, neighbours and even unlicensed creches for childcare. However, this did not mean that full-time parents, mostly mothers, had nothing to worry about. Since mothers tended to the household or were unable to drive their children to school, it was common to send children in private vehicles, carpool, school buses, with servants or a specially appointed person who took groups of children to school.
Challenges Experienced by Parents Since there were no mobile phones, CCTV facilities or GPS, parents simply trusted the concerned persons and asked their children if everything was all right. Furthermore, there was no way of knowing if the child was telling the truth or someone was pressuring or coercing the child into lying. There was also the risk of the child not alighting the school bus or private vans in time. In these cases, school buses simply left and alternative arrangements had to be made to drop the child to school. This caused much inconvenience to parents and children.
IT and Child Safety With rising crimes against children, it has become more urgent than ever to devise solutions to ensure their safety and wellbeing. Thankfully, the swift advances in information technology and digital connectivity have given rise to school vehicle tracking apps, live camera access in daycare facilities, Whatsapp and SMS to communicate with school staff etc. — tools that help parents ensure their child’s safety. myskoolbus is one such application that tracks school buses

in real-time and sends notifications and updates to parents and teachers. Notifications include the bus’s location, the child boarding the bus, arrival time at the school, departure, alerts in case the bus breaks down etc. Pooja Khemka, Founder and CEO, trackNOW Pvt. ltd., who developed the myskoolbus App can relate to parental anxiety about child safety as she too is a parent. She states, “It’s just like keeping fingers crossed every day until you see your child coming back from school” The app is popular with schools and optimized for computers, smartphone and tablets. Manan Choksi, Executive Director, Udgam School and Zebar School for Children states, “I didn’t expect myskoolbus to be so convenient, so useful, and so relevant, it is a boon for working parents”. Thousands of parents have welcomed the myskoolbus application for its reliability and convenience. “Larger ecosystem partners are school chains that have multiple branches across the country. Recently, CBSE has made it compulsory for schools to use GPS in their vehicles” adds Pooja Khemka. Above all, parents can now rest assured that their children are safe and sound.
St. George’s College: LEGACY AND THE WAY FORWARD
school Perspective
St. George’s College believes that the role of education is not to produce intellectual monsters or walking encyclopedias but to mould socially productive individuals with strong values, says Bro. Tomy Varghese, Principal, St. George’s College, in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN). St. George’s College (SGC) is widely reputed as one of India’s oldest and most respected all-boys boarding schools. What are the core competencies that distinguish your institutions from others in the industry? The campus is an aesthetic blend of old world building and new state of the art academic sports and co- curriculum infrastructure which enable delivery of holistic 21st century education. SGC holds pride of place in the hearts of all who have passed through manor house. Right from outstanding results of our ISC and ICSE students, and awards to trophies and prizes clinched by our students in myriad co-curricular activities, the wheel of excellence and progress is interminable. Our School was conferred a certificate and badge of honour at a ceremony in the House of Commons, London.
What kind of technologies and innovations are being adopted by the institution to enhance students’ learning abilities?
Bro. Tomy Varghese
St. George’s College believes in incorporating the best technology can offer to make every class-room session a novel and rich learning experience. The school has Smart Board equipped classes that provide the teachers and students with multimedia modules for better understanding. St. George’s College was the first school in North India to adopt Tablet Based Learning Solution to enable the students practice the three R’s - Read, Recall and Revise the lessons they are taught. The Language Laboratory for English has been set-up for the young learners to augment their listening and speaking skills.
and classroom management. Teachers are encouraged to read beyond syllabi. Orientation workshops for teachers provide ample opportunity to explore new strategies in teaching such that the challenges of the modern world may be effectively met.
Innovation in Education is not limited to students alone. It is equally important for teachers to be skilled to be able to enhance the teaching experience. What are the measures taken in this regard? Teachers are the pillars of education and development of valuable human resources. It is with this belief that St George’s College provides an atmosphere where growth, development and progress is not limited to students alone but includes educators and other professionals at the institution. Regular seminars are organsed so that teachers may keep up with advancements in technology, methods of teaching

How is SGC supporting its students and teachers for technology based education? SGC organises regular training sessions for students and teachers to facilitate the use of technology in the classroom. The Creative Lab, the first of its kind in North India, was set up under the direction of the honourable Principal, Reverend Brother Tomy Varghese. The Smart Classes enable the teacher to capture both attention and interest of the pupil. This ensures that there is commendable and regular progress with the syllabi.
What is the future plan for SGC, keeping in mind the legacy?? The legacy of St. George’s College is embedded in our school motto ‘virtus et labor’ signifying character and work. I also wish to quote here a line from our school song ‘struggle and conquer in life’s great fight’ which has been a trademark of all the manorites as they have always maintained a ‘ never say die’ attitude.

Skills in Curriculum We teach students using Moodle Learning Management System which can be used for blended learning and flipped classroom method of teaching, says Dr. Bharti Swami, Principal, Vidhyashram International School, in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN). Having earned a reputation as one of the prestigious schools in Jodhpur, how has been the journey from Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan’s to Vidhyashram International School? Bhartiya Vidhya Bhavan was a humble beginning with a few students. The growth of the school from its modest beginning to its present stature, as one among the best schools in Jodhpur as VIS, has been phenomenal. The school is recognised today as an icon of excellence in the field as it provides a congenial atmosphere for learning to its students. Incessant efforts from all the stakeholders have gone a long way in making the school what it is today. The school is proud of the achievements of its students. This puts in lot of pressure on the institute as expectation of the parents and students continue to rise, but with determined, dedicated & well qualified faculty we continue to fly to greater heights.
What is the vision and mission of your institution? Our vision is to be the most admired school by creating adults of tomorrow who are progressive, caring and who will contribute positively to the global society for peaceful co-existence and mutual growth.

Little Red Bus global preschool:
Preschool Perspective
Mapping the Way Forward in Early Education Little Red Bus now plans to aggressively expand across the country, with special focus on tier 2 cities and suburban towns, says Saurabh Poddar, Founder, Little Red Bus Global Preschool, in conversation with Elets News Network (ENN) What is the vision behind Little Red Bus Global Preschool? Little Red Bus has been created with the vision of bringing a holistic early childhood program to a wider Indian audience, ensuring balanced learning & development of each child. We have had a very successful run with Eager Beavers Preschool & Daycare. Little Red Bus is an attempt to benefit many more with high quality early education.
What is the teaching methodology adopted by Little Red Bus? Our program is inspired by Multiple Intelligence Theory of Dr. Howard Gardner that advocates holistic development of each child across various intelligence areas. Our unique SureP.L.A.E program has been benchmarked against British E.Y.F.S. (Early Years Foundation Stage) guidelines.
Please tell us more about the SureP.L.A.E program? SureP.L.A.E has been developed by our team led by Ms. Frances Wood. The program lays emphasis on social-emotional development of a child. We believe that this is the most important area of development in the early years. The program ensures that• Protect: Each child feels safe and secure and thus, confident and trusting of the environment, • Love: Each child is able to appreciate love and warmth around, as well as, learns to treat others with the same love and warmth.
Saurabh Poddar
Founder, Little Red Bus Global Preschool
• •
Aspire: Each child is self confident, self motivated and independent in thought process. Enrich: Each child grasps knowledge, information and skills set to prepare them for future
What change do you see in general approach of parents towards Early Education? With time, parents are getting more aware of the importance of development of a child during foundation years. As experts say, personality of a child is primarily shaped before they turn 7. Parents no more equate preschools with just alphabets, rhymes and names of animals. They now demand more from a preschool, and rightly so.
What are your expansion plans? Little Red Bus now plans to aggressively expand across the country, with special focus on tier 2 cities and suburban towns. We look forward to partnering with local edupreneurs that share our vision for learning & development.
What is your advice to anyone who wishes to open a preschool? I would ask them to define what they want to give to children and then attempt to provide it from the first day. Do not postpone the quality inputs to the second term or the second year of your preschool’s operations.

In your opinion, how the school education ecosystem is going to transform after the introduction of New Education Policy? We all know that knowledge-based education is defunct and soon needs to be replaced by competency-based education. Pedagogical leadership in School will be a prime focus to develop the skills of the facilitators to prepare them for 21st century learning. We need to empower the post millennials to develop future fit minds through a culture of resilience that supports students’ holistic growth — their mind, body, and heart.
Going forward, what are the key focus areas of Birla Open Minds International School? A lot of emphasis is put to execute competency-based education where desired learning outcome is mapped well with our teaching learning process.

n this age of Information, Technology, AI and Machine Learning, the Gen Z student is getting bored in the classrooms. These are the students who are born with an overload of interactive gadgets, intelligent toys and modern devices all around them. Their upbringing might have been dependent fully on an app that their millennial parents used for this purpose, and their daily schedules monitored through constant location tracking and AI technology. They have knowledge much beyond their age and are continuously staring at a lit up screen for most part of the day absorbing right and wrong information constantly. Keeping in mind that the teacher is usually of an earlier generation, it is a big challenge that schools are facing. No amount of efforts done in this direction can keep pace at which the advancements in technology overtakes them. The students have full access to the latest modern devices at home which schools may not be able to provide. They like to have crisp, easy to process, bite size information and find an easy audience on a global stage

through the various social media platforms, to express their ideas and opinions with great confidence. They want to structure and plan the course of their careers more around their hobbies and interests than around a particular subject field now. How then does a teacher engage them? Offering them another lit up screen or IWB to fulfill a mandate of ICT usage from the management? Or to make their time spent in school much more happy and interactive? The teachers definitely need to be able to adapt themselves to this new age learning style and channel the delivery of the curriculum by taking full advantage of the electronic and media literacy of their students. This is probably how the students will feel empowered and confident. Letting students work in groups and learn through peers is the most effective and fun way of learning instead of making students feel cramped in a system which binds them to learn in a set pattern through limited resources. Teachers need to connect, collaborate and share continuously and not make the students grapple to fit into an educational system which is yet to evolve to their needs. It is encouraging to note that the newly formulated National Education Policy - 2019 is taking this under consideration, underlining the thrust of technological interventions for the purpose of improving teaching – learning and evaluation processes, supporting teacher preparation and professional development for streamlining the curriculum to fit the requirement of the new generation of learners to setting sustainable development goals. While it is crucial that schools take an informed decision to provide modern tools and resources to the teachers and students to make learning more effective, it is also important to find a way around the fast moving world. The schools can play a crucial role in educating the students to enjoy the fast pace but also learn to stop to smell the flowers, to be conscious of their surrounding and make an effort to contribute towards the environment. The virtual life that has impacted the students’ personality completely needs to be pulled back to face the earthly realities. Today generation need to be mindful and alert about their crucial role on the planet and move ahead with complete accountability for their actions.

W
e live in a rapidly changing, fast paced world; where growth is exponential as compared to previous eras. Technology has put our lives on an information super highway that we are all racing on at meteoric speeds. Why should schools be left behind then? Children make up 39% of our population: that is about 470 million children. To put it in perspective, that is more than 3 times the entire population of Russia, or about 1.5 times the population of the United States! Even more importantly, though children are 39% of our present population, they make up 100% of our future! The children in school today will be living the majority of their adult lives 20 – 50 years from now. Schools are preparing children for their lives decades ahead, when none of us know what next year will look like. The top 10 most in demand jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2004. This is even more amplified today than it was a decade back. Schools are preparing children for jobs that don’t exist today, who will be solving problems that aren’t even problems yet, by using technologies that haven’t even been invented yet! But are we training 21st century citizens with 20th century teacher training in 19th century learning environments? The unfortunate answer is Yes, for the most part. While there are schools that could be considered truly competitive on a global scale, these are but islands of excellence floating on vast oceans of mediocrity. With the exponential growth of technology in our lives, there have been some enhancements in classrooms as well – with schools trying to brag about their Smart Class or Digital Classroom capabilities; which are passé at a global level. India is way behind its international counterparts when it comes to integrating the latest technologies to enhance learning outcomes of its students. While classrooms in the developed world are moving into AR / VR / MR and blended learning – so many schools in India are still so proud of their projectors and interactive whiteboards as being the epitome of learning technology. The Indian education system, like many Asian education systems, is obsessed around the pursuit of the Holy Grail of Marks. Parents, schools and children are on this incessant treadmill of chasing marks. In today’s world, children have access to infinite amounts of information through Google at their fingertips.

Chairman, Podar Education tackle their next tasks. And yet we, as an education system are obsessed with the pursuit of marks, which are nothing more than a measure of the child’s ability to memorize and regurgitate. The world economy in the 21st century will not reward you for how much you know, but for what you can do with what you know. Not for the amount of knowledge that you have, but for how you apply the knowledge that you have! If we want to build more world class schools that are in line with the top of global standards, we need to attract the best minds of our country into teaching. It has to resurrect itself as an attractive and desirable career choice! To build world class schools of tomorrow, we must plant the seeds today!

The basics of schools have though not changed – we still find the classrooms, teachers, students, books, papers etc. Let’s not forget the fact that today students certainly more aware and knowledgeable for Google are their constant companion. A sneak peek into their lives though represents a contrast they are more easily distracted and have to be more entertained than in the past. The one - size - fits - all can’t work. Hence the need for personalised learning initiatives.

It moves beyond the confines of passive learning. With active learning, they communicate with a program, listen to questions and provide responses, and take part in specially designed quizzes, activities and learning sessions. The language learner example is useful for highlighting the interest and potential for a learner to choose their learning path instead of having it imposed on them.
Artificial Intelligence An application based on machine technology collected and analyzed the data of students related to various dynamics such as academic performance, the reason for school dropouts, quality and skills of teachers, social demographics, gender etc. This enabled the state government to determine students who were likely to drop out in a particular academic session. Thus AI can greatly help in reforming the education system as well as helping better decision making and fixing loopholes in existing systems.
Cut down on visual clutter Busy, cluttered classrooms can feel overwhelming. Choice of activities should be limited at a given point of time so that the child may make a more thoughtful and less stressed decision. During an activity, the teacher must ensure that the child is ‘fully present’. Let’s not forget that joyful brain processes learning much better. Humor, singing and dancing reduces stress and enhances emotional safety.
Design Thinking Educators need to lead with empathy, challenge assumptions and make experiments happen. It makes them both - a mentor and a leader - bringing in confidence for what he/she may discover can be something we’ve yet to imagine.

The global standards of education have reached a new high where technology plays a vital role in shaping the way students learn. The way the teaching methodologies have evolved emphasizes more on learning outcomes where child centric education is of utmost importance. Moving ahead with the same thought and vision in mind we have decided to bring technologies like augmented reality and virtual reality and make it accessible to the students and schools across India. Imagine if a child can get inside an IC engine virtually and understand how it operates. This is very much possible using technologies like Virtual reality where a learner can explore and learn in way he could have never thought off. The head mounted gadgets add to the user experience. It is imperative to use these technologies in the right way to meet the learning outcomes and that is where the concept of blended learning plays an indispensable role.

Immersive Experience through Virtual Reality(VR) Virtual reality gives a very engaging experience and when rightly used in education, it can help in increasing the attention span of students. It is a three-dimensional world where a user can manipulate and explore while feeling as if he were in that world. In a virtual reality environment, a learner experiences complete immersion with the feeling of being inside and a part of that world and all sensory organs are utilized. The 360 degree view makes the graphics more compelling and caters to better understanding. Augmented Reality (AR) AR adds on to another dimension of learning as it allows us to augment any object in space, explore and interact with it. Augmented reality has a great potential to be used in the classroom because it changes the way students interact with the real world. The AR app initializes the augmentation when the image in the book is scanned by the camera of the device. The 3D model gets augmented on top of the textbook where the user can interact and have real time experience. 3D Stereo 3D Stereo explains several topics using 3DS animated video, simulation and are interactive. These high resolutions stereoscopic animations create an immersive effect and keep students engaged and focused. While playing simulations students explore complex structures in 3D which adds an element of excitement to learning. They can rotate the models 360 degrees as well as zoom in and zoom out at will. Thus the learning is acquired through action. We aim to provide an integrated learning platform that offers a combination of usability and personalized learning experience anytime, anywhere. It includes features like Dashboard, Analytics, and Content list, Mind-map, Playlist and many more.

top schools ranking 2019
RANKING TOP-NOTCH SCHOOLS OF INDIA IN PRESENT TIMES... “A child without education is like a bird without wings,” says a famous Tibetan proverb underlining the significance of education for a young mind. It suggests how education can influence one’s purpose and helps an individual in expanding his/her horizon of life. Thus, it becomes essential that we make sure to impart quality education to our children from the tender age itself. At present, there is a dire need to take school education seriously, which is the founding stone of a child’s career. To ensure that the child is in safe hands, parents need to be extra careful while admitting their ward or while moving them to a different school. Hence, school selection is a serious matter and needs to be done with due diligence following a proper research by parents. Most of the parents go by neighbours’ or close relatives’ advice while choosing the school for their ward. Although, a good piece of advice must be always be welcomed, but there are certain parameters that parents must consider while accessing the schools. Getting a child admitted in a school just because it’s highly decorated or popular cannot be considered a wise decision. Instead, there must be a yardstick to evaluate any school considering future challenges of academics and professional career. Apart from this, the everyday growing global competition does not limit the purpose of education only to get a job but also caters to develop a generation of vibrant minds and global leaders. Holding a crucial place in global education industry, India has more than 1.5 million schools (government, public and private) that educate more than 260 million students (Source: Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation). India is the second largest market for e-learning after the US, which is currently pegged at $2 billion, and is expected to touch $5.7 billion by 2020. The Government of India is also aiming to raise the current Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) to 30 percent by 2020 (Source: India Brand Equity Foundation). These initiatives are likely to help the education sector of India to boost at a rapid growth rate. The above stated factors inspired Elets and digitalLEARNING Magazine to conduct a comprehensive “Top Schools of India Ranking 2019”. This is the seventh consecutive year for which the ranking will be released. Covering the schools spread across the length and breadth of the country, the Top Schools of India Ranking will help the parents in making an informed choice about the school where they can get their ward enrolled, looking beyond the barriers of demography. Besides, it will also help the schools in understanding their current withstanding and improve where they are lagging behind.
Ranking Methodlogy In this exercise, we have tried to select and rate the top schools located in metros and cities of five zones – North, Central, South, West, and East of India. The ranking has been conducted on the basis of data collected through primary, secondary and perception-based research. This mammoth exercise was spread over two months. We have also covered the residential, boarding and international schools across the country. The residential and boarding schools are the ones which offer accommodation facility to the students as well and international schools that offer the latest and best global practices to their students. The schools have been ranked nationally on these parameters which matter the most to parents while making a selection of the best schools. We hope this exercise helps our readers, as parents; make a more informed decision while choosing the school for their child. Also, it is expected that digitalLEARNING’s School Ranking edition will be beneficial for schools as well, in terms of improving themselves according to the factors concerning education sector the most at present.
Ranking parameters Given below are the five parameters which we have kept in mind while ranking the finest schools of the country. • Goodwill and Legacy • Academic Excellence • Future-Ready Infrastructure • Enrichment of Learning Experience in Sports and Cultural Activities • Online and Social Presence

GOODWILL AND LEGACY When we talk about a school, two aspects come to our mind – ‘Goodwill’ it enjoys and the ‘Legacy’ it has built over the years. Only after imparting quality education, maintaining excellent teachers and delivering impressive results continuously for years, a school can build a name for themselves in a region or state. Besides education, the schools are also looked upon for imparting other essential training and skills as part of an endeavour to develop a generation which can be enabled to survive in the competitive world. Maintaining such standards over a period of time helps a school build upon its goodwill front in terms of the perception of education stakeholders. As goodwill and legacy automatically reflect the quality of any school, it is among the first and foremost criteria of consideration for parents while selecting a school for kids. digitalLEARNING magazine, under this parameter, considered factors such as – Unbiased Approach, Safe and Secure Environment and Good Alumni Feedback –before ranking a school.
ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Largely viewed as the demonstrated ability to perform, achieve, or excel in scholastic activities, it has been identified with achieving high grades and better performance. But academic excellence is not just restricted to scoring good grades. It is the maximum development of a person’s intellectual capacities and skills. While emphasizing the overall development of a student, academic excellence features as a key part of it. The ability to understand, explore and embrace new concepts of knowledge and approaches makes or mar a student’s prospects. digitalLEARNING Magazine’s Top Schools of India Ranking – 2019 considered “Academic Excellence” as a parameter to identify and acknowledge the best schools that have also adopted the best practices intending to ensure the overall development of students without compromising on a student’s academic brilliance.

FUTURE-READY INFRASTRUCTURE Apart from teaching pedagogy employed and the overall brand value of school, the concept of future-ready infrastructure as exhibited by various schools has also emerged as a key factor in shaping a positive image of educational institutions. Keeping this factor into account, we have analysed the utility of future-ready infrastructure and how it’s creating value for educational institutions across the country. Under this, we considered two factors: 1) Robust, Digitally-enabled Infrastructure, 2) Personalised Professional Learning. digitalLEARNING considered “Future-Ready Infrastructure” as a parameter for Top Schools of India Ranking 2019, as given the increasing usage of IT in academic assessment and curriculum formation, it has become significant and crucial for schools to adopt the digital form of imparting knowledge. We ranked the school in terms of its efforts towards digitisation of its curriculum, instructions and assessment.
ENRICHMENT OF LEARNING EXPERIENCE IN SPORTS AND AND Cultural ACTIVITIES
ONLINE AND SOCIAL PRESENCE An organisation’s website and its digital presence is a window of its reputation and people associated with it. As per a report released by IMAI (Internet and Mobile Association of India), 65 % of the population prefers online search for educational content. Institutes with more online or social visibility seem to enjoy a marked advantage in terms of being more accessible and being popular among students. The website also lists schools’ key differentiators and how its key strengths stack up with the rest of the players. All this helps parents to decide about a school. To analyse a school’s online and social presence, we considered factors such as – Utility and UserFriendly Website and Social Connectivity and Community Building. An increasing number of schools today use the power of digital technology and reach out to the target audience. digitalLEARNING magazine has considered “Online & Social Presence” as the fifth but key parameter for its “Top Schools of India Ranking 2019”.

A good learning experience can make any school a home away from home. The learning experience does not only include the study of books but also participation in sports and other extracurricular activities. Such activities help in students’ holistic development and lead to inculcating traits like team-work, leadership and creative thinking among them. To benefit students and make them future-ready, the education sector is undergoing a paradigm shift from traditional teaching methods to innovative learning processes While preparing Top Schools of India Ranking – 2019, digitalLEARNING considered “Enrichment of Learning Experience” as a parameter because traditional educational approaches have resulted in a mismatch between what is taught to the students and what the industry needs. Today, many institutions are heading towards innovative learning processes that can nurture students who are -- creative, critical thinkers and analytical -- to solve problems.

These States have improved considerably in terms of access to school education and enrollment of students at the school level. This zone has several prominent educational institutes that have been training students and imparting holistic development. However, in terms of access to school education, the zone has multiple issues like urban-rural disparity and lower female literacy.

n a consistently expanding horizon of education and changing market scenarios, the approach and purpose of imparting education requires a fresh look at fixed intervals of time.
In this light, the World Education Summits (WES) organised by digitalLEARNING, an initiative of Elets Technomedia Pvt Ltd, have emerged as quintessential platforms of knowledge-exchange and highest level of engagement in India and different parts of the world over the years.
Taking the meaning of imparting education to a new level, redefining the objectives and approaches to perceive meaning of literacy, knowledge, and skills in sync with the modern-day trends and making them relevant as per market demands, these summits today hold an unprecedented significance. Since education’s diversified horizon is narrated in terms of preschool, school, higher education, and skill & vocational training classification, the Information Communication Technology (ICT) is influencing all, playing a key role in reinventing teaching-learning processes. Even though the traditional chalk and talk methods have held their own significance at different stages of development, the need and reach of ICT cannot be underestimated by any breath of imagination in the present times. Its importance is further boosted most importantly when taking education to the last-mile has also turned a collective mission of the Government and the private sector. Every day, there are new innovations related to lecture delivery methodologies, curriculum and pedagogy. These innovations and ICT are supporting schools, colleges/universities, and skill & vocational training institutes to deliver the knowledge swiftly and precisely. In an endeavour to highlight and deliberate upon the innovations, initiatives and best practices being followed across the globe, the 14 editions of WES held in India and abroad mainly in Dubai (UAE), Bahrain (Bahrain), Denver (US), New Delhi, and Mumbai — hold a distinct significance. These have enabled inunderlining the best happening developments on the international education landscape. It is a matter of pride that since 2011, the WES has brought together top decision makers, edu-leaders, industry leaders, thought leaders and practitioners annually. Today, it exists as a premier international platform dedicated to innovation and creative approach in education where top decision-makers share insights with on-the-ground practitioners and collaborate to rethink the concept of education.

City Montessori School: A Trendsetter in School Perspective
the Education Ecosystem

As the world’s largest school, with almost 57,000 students on roll, ‘our success mantra is simply to focus relentlessly on quality’, says Roshan Gandhi, Director of Strategy, City Montessori School, in an interview with Arpit Gupta of Elets News Network (ENN). What are the innovative teaching and learning initiatives implemented by the City Montessori School to make education equitable, engaging and meaningful for children? I’m glad you asked about how we make education more ‘meaningful’ for children, because the meaning behind education is more important to us than pure academic results – despite our students’ excellent academic performance, including several allIndia toppers and well over half of all students scoring over 90% in ISC and ICSE examinations. Indeed, we believe that ‘Every child is potentially the light of the world’ – that all students have the potential for greatness if only they receive the right material, human, and spiritual education to bring out the gems latent within them. CMS takes pride in instilling well-defined values into our students through an approach to moral education that pervades throughout the curriculum rather than being confined to ‘Moral Teaching’ periods, and places strong emphasis on peace education, for which CMS became the only school to receive the UNESCO Prize for Peace Education in 2002. Part of this is the unparalleled international exposure we provide to students, including the annual International Conference of Chief Justices of the World for children along with more than 20 other regular international events. In this spirit, we also successfully facilitate students getting admission to study abroad, through our individual career counselling and being UP’s only SAT Test Centre – and we encourage our students to aspire to global decision-making careers in which they can influence others to also adopt the values of world unity that they learn at CMS. Since we believe every student should be able to receive whatever individual support they need, we ensure that all students have access to a trained, professional psychological counsellor. There is a broad range of extra-curricular activities on offer for all students, including everything from individual Western Classical music tuition to advanced Robotics classes. In the classroom, teachers are constantly improving their skills through our robust quality assurance processes along with regular training by expert

resource persons in all subjects, while pedagogy is continuously enhanced through the introduction of various appropriate technologies accompanied by training and hardware support.
Where do you see a role for advanced technologies like data analytics, robotics, artificial intelligence in improving overall performance of students and teachers? These technologies can be very useful for enhancing the process of teaching and learning. Educational technology can improve pedagogy by generating data to help them pinpoint differentiated learning levels within a class and targeting individual students’ personal learning needs, by providing quality teaching content that can enhance a lesson, by reducing their administrative burden to open up more time for planning lessons and improving teaching skills, or by acting as a medium through which new
How has CMS been committed to serving the nation in giving access to quality education and empowering the youth for last 60 years? We are proud of the access we provide, with more than 20% of all students studying with generous fee concessions, along with free education given to nearly 1,400 of our support staff – and this way almost 15,000 CMS students from less privileged backgrounds get access to quality education at a free or heavily discounted rate. With a specific Junior Youth Empowerment Programme running in our schools in which students are encouraged to think about how to become agents of positive transformation in the world, youth empowerment is a cornerstone of a CMS education. This programme empowers young minds with a spirit of service as they imbibe the value of working for the good of others, leadership skills as the older students become facilitators for this learning by younger students, and thinking and communication skills as they analyse, discuss, and express opinions on issues facing our world and their futures. These students also take part in service projects ranging from being volunteer literacy tutors for underprivileged students to running moral education classes for students in primary sections.

CMS offers a bevy of amazing results proving its pedagogy, its education and its capabilities. What is the success mantra?
School Perspective
pedagogical practices such as flipped learning can be experimented with. An educational leader would be mistaken to think, however, that these technologies can replace any aspect of the role of the teacher – the human touch of a skilled teacher can never be substituted by any technology, however sophisticated. These technologies, however advanced they may be, are merely tools to be placed in a teacher’s hand and are useful only insofar as they are helpful to teachers and lead to a positive impact on students’ learning outcomes.
As the world’s largest school according to The Guinness Book of World Records, with almost 57,000 students on roll – a lot of people assume that we define our success by focusing on numbers. In reality, this could not be further from the truth – we have never chased numbers. Our success mantra is simply to focus relentlessly on quality. We do this by continuously investing in improvement of teachers and leadership through training; development of infrastructure through providing new buildings and facilities including robotics labs, advanced sports facilities such as playing fields, attractive libraries, and state-of-the-art computer labs; and investing in programmes for the benefit of students, whether it be engaging outside organisations to conduct quality career counselling at scale or working with software providers to find innovative methods of encourage students to develop a reading habit – and as a result of that quality, we find that children will keep coming to seek admission.
What are your future endeavours? We hope to remain a trendsetter in the education sector, pioneering the latest methods in teaching and learning for the maximum benefit of students. We plan to keep focusing on quality and keep on continuously improving the capacity of our human resources and infrastructure, to spread access to quality education to create a better future for as many children as possible.

Shri Pramod Dubey Hon’ble Mayor, Raipur Municipal Corporation School Leadership Summit is a great platform to share vision and ideas and brainstorm on how to evolve education system in the country. Today, Raipur, which was once at the 139th position, is ranked seventh on the list of top secured and smart cities, thanks to the enormous knowledge exchange opportunities provided by elets that helped us learn & develop. Amid the growing dominance of technology, we are moving towards the era of e-classes, teacher-less classes and digital education. Our country has a grand scope to develop the best education system in the world, as heads of top counties buck up their student saying “study hard or else Indians will takeover”.

School Leadership Summit is a great platform to discuss, brainstorm and exchange ideas on how to make education widespread, make learning fun so that our coming generation is much more aware and contributes in national building in the future. Today, after the emergence IT and Internet, there is no dearth of learning resources. Even in remote areas, students have access to knowledge but still there is lack of guidance. As leaders it is our responsibility create awareness about education and promote open learning platforms.

conference report
Juergen Morhard Consul General, Consulate General of Germany The topics of agenda of School Leadership Summit, Raipur can a matter of debate in any part of the world because we are facing almost the similar problems when it comes to school education. You will be surprised to know there are more Indian students in Germany than UK and 80% of students are into IT and Engineering. As a consequence, the number one group of highly skilled professionals in Germany are the Indians. Besides, we have roughly 1,300 companies in India, 80% of which are run by them because we have groomed Indian talent over the years.
key speakers Dr R D Patidar Officiating Vice Chancellor, OP Jindal University, Raigarh, Chhattigarh The development and growth of any nation depends upon the quality of education imparted by the schools, colleges and universities. And the quality of education is highly reliant on – quality of teachers and quality of infrastructure & facilities. Talking about the present education scenario, it is time to shift from knowledge based learning to experiential learning where students can acquire more practical knowledge and better understanding of subjects. The success of an individual depends 60% on the attitude he carries, 30-40% on the skills while only 15-20% depends on the knowledge.

conference report
Principal Director, Jindal Institute of Behavioural Sciences (JIBS), Sonipat As per the iceberg model, we know only 10% of other human beings. As parents, we claim to know our child inside out but in reality we don’t. Nobody knows what kind of beliefs, judgments, opinions, morals, and values our children are inhibiting. All these characteristics led to the development of an attitude/ behaviour, which he/she is going to carry on till his death. In spite of having so many counselors, we are not able to deal with their aggression, the receptivity, their frustration level and their suicidal tendencies. To address this issue, we started the Jindal Institute of Behavioural Sciences (JIBS) and have conducted the awareness program with 28,000 principals in India with over 2,600 schools.
Dr B K Sthapak Founding VC, CSVTU, Founding Chancellor, OP Jindal University, Raigarh, Chhattigarh We have been clinging to memory-based teaching and learning but now it is time to go for innovative teaching and learning. We need to shift from content-based education to outcome-based education; and move from qualificationbased system to skill based system. 10 years down the line, the text books of today will be replaced by the virtual reality, study material virtually available on tablets. It will save tons and tons of the paper and indirectly help for the preservation of the environment. Likewise, the teaching styles in the classroom has to be based on the activity rather than imparting of instructions. If we cover three aspects in any education system – Knowledge, Skill and Behaviour – perhaps it becomes most useful for the society in itself.
Dr Jawahar Surisetti Advisor to Government, Smart City Expert Element of critical thinking is a big miss in today’s education system. We are teaching today what we were teaching 30 years ago without questioning it. All this while, we have not re-thought of the whole education system. But the questioning of the students of this generation is much higher than what we used to ask our parents. And it is high time that without any shame, we should think whether the past practices, without any bias, that we have framed are right or wrong. And if not, re-frame, re-structure, re-do them and do away with the old. This current government has already done over with a lot of old laws.

We all want our children to be happy while they acquire knowledge. They will be happy once they start cherishing the learning process and enjoy coming to schools. Out of 8-10 periods in the school, it is that one activity period that makes the child more proactive. Music is one of the most important elements and it is being proven that learning music helps in boosting the remembering power of a child and creating a positive mindset. In 21st century, where critical thinking and creative thinking are much desired, music helps in a great way in changing the physiology which ultimately improves the psychology.
Vivek Varshney Founder & CEO, Speed Labs Earlier, teachers were the epicenter of education. But now, we need two T’s to complete the education – Teacher and Technology. Technology works as a bridge between the teachers and the students in two ways namely information feedback sharing. Based on this, a teacher can revised his personalised inputs for each and every student and treat them uniquely. We need to create an ecosystem where students can learn through personalised methodology and up to different levels.
