Coimbatore: Decision making freedom was the desire of the hour in the school schooling gadget in the nation, mentioned president of Kumaraguru College of Technology Shankar Vanavarayar at the Times NIE Principal's seminar here on Thursday.
Talking about reforming the college schooling gadget, Shankar, who addressed a meeting of greater than 30 school heads, mentioned, "While the government and the system are taking their own steps to reform the education system, I feel every school should start innovating within the organisation."
Shankar mentioned in the era of web, the provision of knowledge was no longer a privilege. "Students are aware of most things that we discuss in the classroom. So, classrooms should no longer be about lecturing the students. Instead, the stress should always be on discussion," he mentioned.
An educationist, Shankar spoke about Nobel Laureate Muhammed Yunus. "He said the huge changes in technology that we have today is because of science fiction. Stories (science fiction) led to technologies become a reality. According to him, nobody thinks about social fiction. If our students start thinking about social reforms, we will start seeing changes in the society," Shankar mentioned.
Principals mentioned they have been proud of the Times NIE edition. "We have a newspaper reading session for 15minutes. We also solve puzzles and riddles. It gives a great start to our day," mentioned a instructor consultant from SBKV Matriculation Higher Secondary School.
School heads mentioned they have been in a position to motivate students of Tamil medium to inculcate the addiction of studying English.
"This newspaper has helped us to motivate students from the Tamil medium section to learn English. And, the feedback is very positive," mentioned a headmistress.
