Jivo Jivasya Jeevanam: Unfolding the Transformative Power of Life

Jivo Jivasya Jeevanam : Unfolding the Transformative Power of Life If you are in the Delhi or Agra area during the winter months, the Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary is a magical place to visit. A few years ago, I spent a day exploring this stunning sanctuary in North India, renowned for being a haven for birds. Over 350 species flock to Bharatpur during the winter, making it a paradise for bird enthusiasts.

Project-Based Learning (PBL): Learning in Action! : 3 For many days, my WhatsApp profile statement has been: 'The art of teaching is the art of assisting Discovery,' by Mark Van Doren. As a guide teacher for project-based learning (PBL), it serves as the perfect tagline. It reminds me that my role is to guide students in their journey of exploration and investigation, enabling learners to brainstorm project ideas/questions, develop skills required for exploration and investigation, work out the methodology required for discovery, and help present the discovered knowledge. When identifying topics for project work, students come up with ideas based on their observations of their surroundings, society, and day-to-day life events. Project-based learning encourages students to actively explore and investigate real-world problems or challenges, fostering a sense of curiosity and self-discovery. Apart from the above-mentioned methodological aspects of projects, the guiding tea...
