VN Sule Guruji set to adopt virtual learning method for Classes V and IX
Students of the Indian Education Society’s V N Sule Guruji English Medium School will no longer be taught using blackboards and chalk, rather with visual imagery. With the objective of doing away with the conventional method of teaching, the school has decided to adopt the virtual learning methodology of teaching, whereby students will learn their lessons through visual images.
Located at Dadar, the school is set to become the first Maharashtra State Board affiliated school to construct 20 virtual classrooms, particularly for students of the fifth and ninth standards. “Each classroom will be equipped with a projector and computer. Lessons will be prepared on CDs that can be viewed by students through the computer server. Thus, instead of textbooks, teachers will be carrying CDs of their regular syllabus to their respective classrooms. Students can also access the CDs through another of the school’s hi-tech projects,” said head mistress Sucheta Bhawalkar.
“With an estimated budget of Rs4 crore, students do not have to sit idle, as the computer’s common server system can impart other value added education,” she added.
“We have introduced the project for standards five and nine from the coming academic session as their syllabus has been changed. Thus, it becomes easier to implement a new syllabus using this technology. Training over the implementation of the virtual classroom teaching methodology has been imparted by Microsoft to about 90 of our teaching staff,” said Bhawalkar.
