Teaching is a never ending learning
process. The world is changing rapidly and so is the teaching process- the need
to shift from Show and Tell to participate in learning is a must. So to cope up
with the need of learning a workshop was organised by the school in
collaboration with Teach Next.
The workshop highlighted the fact that
teaching is no more an easy journey as a teacher has to be reflective, decision
maker, a multilevel instructor and facilitator.
Critical Thinking, Collaborative
Learning, Creativity, Creative Learning are the four effective ways of
communication. Dr. Rachna ,Clinical Psychologist and Coordinator from Teach Next gave the
faculty a thirty circle challenge
wherein the teachers had to use their
creativity by using thirty circles and form them in different shapes. The
activity opened the horizons of the creative aspect and taught that one has
give just a little push to get new innovate ideas.
The aspect of creative thinking involves
evaluation, synthesis of data, analysis, application of data, understanding and
knowledge.
The workshop left everyone with a
question –what could they do to make themselves better? How could they help the
organization to become better? What efforts of their could help the students to
gain better education?
