Online session on 21st April 2021

The online session began with Gibi ma'am's class. After the prayer song we began with our presentations. We went through J P Guilford's SOI model. Today for optional class we had our reading and reflection. Anjitha and Kavya presented their works beautifully. Anjitha took 'Sita's Sister' written by Kavita Kane. Kavya interestingly had taken a book on Homosapiens, a non- fiction book.


The book was a smash hit and  today  it is used in numerous history courses around USA. Compared to the many history textbooks that  commonly consist of  names and dates, Harari’s outlook is broader. His time references are more in terms of ranges and time either before the present, or in the future in his last couple of chapters as he looks ahead to where humankind might be headed.

Writer Kavita and her work

The book made me think aloud. Not just Urmila does any King Janaka's daughters other than Sita get a voice in Ramayana. Are there re-tellings or discourses about these characters-Mandavi and Shrutakirti ?

 September 27th 2021                                       Disinterest or Uninterest Both words are used quite often today. But both words don't mean the same thing. Uninterest is the opposite of interest. It means to not show any care or concern for things. One is said to show disinterest when they don't bother to do something. For example- Ben is uninterested in joining the tour to Goa . They were uninterested in volunteering. Disinterest means to not take both sides of an argument. Choosing not to take sides. For example: She showed disinterest in taking sides. John was disinterested in his children's fight. Today session Joju sir made us stick positive quotes on the Jamboard. It was super fun and motivating to read so many good thoughts. Physical science students continued with their group discussion.  Nikhil does a good job recording all the group discussions.  The next se...

  Digital Textbook   A  digital textbook  is more interactive and engaging. It is designed keeping the modern tech-savvy learners in mind.To address their learning styles and needs, an e-textbook is usually designed with features that will help them learn better and engage more with the learning material.      A major selling point of digital textbooks is that they offer the opportunity for students to access multimedia content, such as embedded videos, interactive presentations and hyperlinks. Tests and other assessments can be included in the textbook, classmates can work together, and student progress can be tracked. Touchscreen technology offers students the chance to participate in projects, research or experiments. This may offer a different or better learning experience than printed textbooks.

 26-08-2022 Last Day of Teacher Training Internship @     ST Goretti's HSS, Nalanchira The day finally came and I was feeling sad that we had to leave during the exam seasons as it prevented us from saying a proper goodbye to our students and our dear teachers.  Even during these days, students came to us to clear their doubts. Although it was our last day we still attended to our school duties and assisted teachers in their invigilation duties. At 11:15 we assembled at the Hm's office for a short vote of thanks session. I was in charge of the speech and thanked all the staff and students for their love and support. We also presented a thank you gift to the HM and also distributed some sweets. Then we had a photography session with the teachers. I can never forget the experience that I got from St Goretti school.
