Every child is important

We all know that  life is a cycle and everyone has to pass through  and face many challenges and move on. I do not remember many things of my childhood so clearly but I am sure that environment I was exposed to in my early years have tremendous impact on my attitude and thinking towards life.As a child we may not react and people around may consider us ignorant but I think that the children imbibe and receive maximum up to the age of 10-11 years.As the child receives more and reacts less he/ she is mistaken of not understanding things or happenings around him/her.
The child becomes what he experiences during the years I have mentioned above and it is very important for us as parents and teachers that we provide our children best of the possible environment. This does not mean to gift costly things but the values of life.That can be best done by action and not necessarily by words.The children learn more by what they see is being done by the adults around them. I also had done certain things  and behaved in a manner which was not a good example for my children but fortunately I realised  my mistakes very early and tried to correct that.What I want to say is that there should be no difference between what we say and what we do specially in the presence of the children..
Every child is full of potential and will be an asset to the society if nurtured well and brought up with positive feelings. He should be treated as good human being and not as a human resource only.Let us try to bring the best out of a child  and give this society an adult who makes the life of the people around him comfortable and happy experience.
Let us see good in every child and make every child feel important and worthy of doing something great which they are and if one does not come up to one`s potential then the child has not failed but we adults/elders.
I shall talk more about it when I meet you next.

    the ease in life today is also one thing that is giving a casual attitude to the children. i thing tht is is also one factor that needs to be taken care of properly cuz if they keep getting everything so easily the zeal to fight and the zeal to excel or to struggle will die eventually.

New Year - Promises And Actions

One more year has gone by and we have entered in a year which takes us closer to the end of the first quarter of the century. There have been discussions and talks of the 21 st century and the skills to face the challenges paused by the changes which are so fast-paced that it is becoming increasingly difficult for the human race to adapt. To do so education has to be given all required focus in the age of AI and ML. The children are to be made aware of the possible advantages and disadvantages of AI and so much dependency on the tools should be avoided because technology might make the brain a bit lethargic. We come across many articles and reports in the newspapers and magazines disturbing the social fabric (for example deepfake and voice-over issues) but seeing the impact of the same in day-to-day life is not that visible. I have written before and repeat the same that the real objective of education is preparing the masses for future challenges which are not only triggered by natu

NCF & NCrF- Innovative Approach

  It has been almost four years since the time NEP 2020 was launched by the honourable Prime Minister of India. Then onwards we have travelled a long way in terms of implementation of the same because the policy is made in such a manner that it has a balanced mix of the ancient Indian education system and modern-day education as desired due to the advancement of technology and different needs of the changing time. Any new policy requires a lot of diligence while being implemented and so is the case with this one as well. The focus on the foundational stage of skill development and entrepreneurship abilities and then innovation in all areas of life not only for the sake of an individual but also the global issues to be addressed is the very spirit of “Vasudhavaa Kutumbakam”. The most important is relevant emphasis on the Indian languages and the culture. I would avoid repeating the explanation as we all have gone through the same umpteen number of times in the last few years and would s

Importance Of Feedback

  If there is a perfect tool for growth, to motivate and improve,  effective and actionable feedback is the way to go. Recently I read a book titled, `Delivering Effective Feedback’ by Harvard Business Review Press’ a compilation of research papers and articles by different authors. Though the book I mentioned is for organizations and institutions, especially business organizations, I found it suitable for educational institutions as well. Not only that, even the approach discussed is applicable in every walk of life, be it family or social groups. Feedback can be understood as the process of letting somebody know the progress and the way forward, meaning thereby, to help an individual or a team by providing your observations. Though this seems to be simple but is a difficult and delicate task. Every organization has a system of annual appraisal wherein the head of the team comments on the performance of the team members. Feedback can be ongoing and formal. Ongoing feedback is when you
