Time is changing fast with advancement of technology. Technology has reached to almost every corner of the world. It is not only making things easier but it makes people think simpler and faster.
For example today people prefer to read news paper on their smart devices because it is easy to get variety of sources from all around the world and follow what enchants you more.
Not only that you can carry it everywhere you go, it also reduces your burden of carrying bulky bags/suitcases and your worries if something had not forgotten.
Similarly, these days students prefer more interactive, creative and simpler way of teaching. They too don’t want all heavy bags full of books and assignments, they desire for easier and simplest way of penning their notes and assignment.
It’s not like technological advancement has not taken place in this field, actually it has developed way more than what we see in our daily life. Our school/campuses are not designed in that manner to show what could be a possible future way of education, students remain unaware of such advancements. It’s agreed that these infrastructure are costlier but still educational institution could not ignore such developments for longer time.
Recently, novel corona virus, if it has hurt any institution most, that is the educational system. It’s not because schools were shutdown to maintain social distancing, the main reason behind it was the inadequate digital infrastructure in their premises.
Therefore, here is list of 5 things schools must improve to modernize schooling.
#1 Install a Real Time School Management Software
Most of the schools in India are still running on bygone era offline software to manage their school administration. There are many online cloud based software are developed to increase communication between peer group of students, teachers, parents and schools administration.
EasyEdulab is working tirelessly in this concept. The online cloud based software provides solutions to manage your school including teachers, students, office, library, Accounts and online class including assignment monitoring features.
#2 Digital Classroom
Online classes has become more popular in last few month than ever it has been before. One main reason for it, is the novel corona virus due to which schools are shutdown. Many schools are running on temporary basis through apps like Zoom and JioMeet. However, students find it difficult to understand the lectures and communicate with teachers. Primarily, student up to K 12 standards are not that mature to handle such studies concepts.
In this connection, EasyEdulab has indigenously designed a online class for school administration, where they can upload their lectures and study materials. You can visit our demo on assignment upload feature to have better view.
#3 Creative Classes
Advancement of technology, many modern equipment and software are designed for creative classrooms. Classrooms with projector, internet connectivity and digital board are not only appealing but also makes easier for showing creative examples/demonstration which in turn proved beneficial for understanding purpose. Since, through visuals demonstration and videos, teachers can easily make student visualize the actual picture of the concepts.
For example, fractions could be understood more easily if it is thought by slicing pizza into many parts. Then showing what fractions one can get if there are n number of member in a family.
#4 Introducing Teacher Training Module
Schools must train their teachers about using technology to make their lectures more interactive and communicating to students. In this way, not only the students could learn fast but it will add skills to your staff teachers.
#5 Diversifying Extra Curriculum Module
Earlier, playground activity and indoor gaming used to be students hobby but in this digital era, young generation prefers more mobile gaming. Schools can utilize this students’ curiosity towards digital world and develop digital infrastructure to build programming skills in K 12 and below students. This will also build capacities of the School to adopt future changes in technology.
