*NEW DELHI* 18.09.23-The Kejriwal Government's commitment to revolutionizing education is taking a giant leap with the introduction of innovative tech-driven learning processes in Delhi government schools. In view of the same Sarvodaya schools have adopted an unique tech driven teaching learning method.
Education Minister Atishi, on Monday, visited Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya, Arambagh, to witness firsthand the remarkable impact of this unique teaching-learning method on students and interacted with them. After a pilot, this learning process has been introduced in all Sarvodaya schools of the Delhi government.
The innovative learning process introduced by the Directorate of Education, Delhi Government, is a technological intervention that follows the curiosity-based approach to learning, encouraging students to delve deeper into subjects and learn through methods of peer correction and self-correction. This learning process reimagines traditional classroom dynamics, fostering an environment that captivates students' attention, making learning not just informative but also engaging and fun.
The Education Minister interacted with students to understand their experiences and said, "Innovative tech driven teaching-learning methods can be a game-changer for our education system. It places students at the center of their learning journey, empowering them to explore and excel at their own pace. This innovative approach not only enhances subject engagement but also nurtures various critical skills. It helps students get rid of rote learning processes."
She further stated that this process not only maintains children's interest throughout the entire learning process but also involves continuous assessments at every stage, enabling teachers to understand children's learning needs and make adjustments in their teaching methods. The engagement and interest of children in learning are proof that DoE is working in the right direction.
Atishi mentioned that when learning becomes understanding-based rather than rote memorization, children's interest increases, and we have also seen the results of this unique learning process where not only have children's participation in the classroom increased but there has also been approximately 7 to 10% rise in classroom attendance.
"By introducing such innovative learning methods, our aim is to make education exciting and motivating for every student. We believe that when students are actively involved in their learning, they develop a deeper understanding of subjects and build lifelong skills," said Atishi.
It is to be note that Kant Learning is a high engagement immersive learning process developed by a US based IITian, Hridayesh Kant. It is an engineered solution to the last mile problem of education delivery at any level. The underlying principle of this process is to harness students' energy and interest, promote peer learning, enhance assessments, and cultivate a sense of healthy competition within the classroom.
*How does this innovative learning process works?*
-> Students are seated in front of TVs in an ordered fashion. Seating order is reflected on a leader board next to TVs.
-> There are multiple TVs with scripts of increasing levels of difficulty.
-> Students check answers of each other as directed by TV scripts.
-> Winners are moved up on leader boards and their seats are also exchanged.
-> As students reach the top of the leader board, they are moved to the next TV with a higher level of difficulty.
