📌 Here's an interesting finding - during the two-hour classroom observations undertaken for our latest report on #earlychildhoodeducation, we noted an average instructional time of 35 minutes in the classroom, with an average time of 13 minutes per activity. As per #NCF recommendations, this time frame should typically range from 3 to 4 hours per day. 💡 Quality learning time in the classroom can become one of the most effective ways to improve #ECE delivery across states in India.

While NEP 2020 prioritises foundational literacy and numeracy, we must also foster critical thinking and diverse perspectives in primary education. I agree that a strong foundation is crucial, but I don’t think a one-size-fits-all approach is the right way to go about it. Let’s encourage dialogue on innovative teaching methods, integrating technology, and addressing educational socio-economic disparities. Let’s embrace diverse viewpoints on curriculum design, assessment methods, and teacher training. By cultivating an environment of respectful disagreement, we can refine policies, spark innovation, and truly transform India's primary education system to meet the challenges of Viksit Bharat 2047. #AgreeToDisagree Read more: https://lnkd.in/dbtzcZVQ | LiveMint | #Education #NationalEducationPolicy #EducationReforms #EducationLandscape #ViksitBharat2047 #CurriculumDesign #EduTech #Technology #India #IndianEducationSystem

The MINISTRY OF EDUCATION, GOVERNMENT OF INDIA launched the NIPUN BHARAT Programme in 2021, to ensure the holistic development of every child up to grade 3. It involves activity-based learning, developing problem-solving skills in children by giving them real-life situations, and enabling children to develop sustainable reading and writing skills. Our vision and mission focus on the holistic development of each and every child, from understanding numbers to understanding real-life problems, we ensure that every child progresses as a whole. Here’s how Cyboard School’s teaching pedagogies are in accordance with The Nipun Bharat Programme's objectives: 1. At Cyboard we believe that children learn the best when given a perspective. Through storytelling, children get to play different characters and roles, they are able to relate to the characters. It helps in building confidence, empathy, and communication skills. 2. Foundational concepts of numbers, shapes, and patterns are introduced through playful activities, extending into the natural world with hands-on experiments. 3. Our innovative language labs provide a welcoming space for students to overcome anxieties and build confidence in speaking, writing, and reading Hindi and English. 4. Sensory play: Sensory play addresses proprioception, boosts creativity, and promotes neuroplasticity. we teach our students to make use of everyday household items like beans, rice, water, and natural materials to engage students in sensory play. 5. Social and emotional learning: Children must be physically and mentally sound to become the best version of themselves. We organize regular workshops that cultivate life skills among students, these workshops address topics such as arousing curiosity, self-love, emotions, peer pressure, creativity, and much more. 6. Our AI-based LMS allows you to track your child’s everyday progress at just the touch of a mouse. At Cyboard we aren’t just preparing your child to score, we are preparing your child for the future. Cyboard School is more than just an online school; it's an investment in your child's future. We empower them to become confident, adaptable, and lifelong learners, ready to embrace the opportunities that lie ahead.

The worksheet showcased in the image aligns well with the principles outlined in India's National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework (NCF). Both these policy documents emphasize the importance of integrating foundational literacy and numeracy skills with engaging, activity-based learning methods in the early years of education. The NEP 2020 recognizes the critical role of developing strong foundational skills, particularly in reading, writing, and basic numeracy, during the Foundational Stage (ages 3-8). It advocates for innovative and interactive pedagogies that make learning enjoyable and meaningful for young children. The worksheet exemplifies this approach by combining reading comprehension exercises with color recognition activities, making the learning experience both educational and engaging. Moreover, the NCF emphasizes the importance of creating learning environments that foster children's natural curiosity and facilitate the acquisition of knowledge through experiential and hands-on activities. The worksheet's design, which requires children to actively color the illustrations based on their understanding of the accompanying sentences, aligns with this principle by promoting a multisensory learning experience that reinforces conceptual understanding. The integration of reading comprehension and color recognition tasks in a single activity also supports the NEP's vision of promoting a holistic development approach in early childhood education. By addressing multiple domains simultaneously, such as language, cognitive skills, and visual-spatial awareness, the worksheet contributes to the overall growth and development of young learners. Furthermore, the visually appealing layout and age-appropriate content of the worksheet align with the NCF's guidelines for designing developmentally appropriate learning materials that cater to the unique needs and interests of young children. #FLN #NEP2020 #examples #earlychildhood

Have you ever wondered what is the best way to learn? Ever wonder why some information sticks and others slip away? Our brains process different information in different ways, some methods lead to much stronger memories. This infographic reveals, how we process information received by different mediums. The Indian government has taken a step forward by putting the importance of experiential learning in both the National Education Policy 2020(NEP2020) & National Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) Policy. It's been a long time of working in STEM education and in our assessments, we have seen tremendous change in students grasping power by working with hands-on-learning kits.

Give our Learners the "Right Start" with Foundational, Literacy and Numeracy (FLN)

changes should start from the school before the higher education... but we must implement it effectively. i have heard that a few schools are charging more in the name of NEP2020... parents must be educated as well...#nep2020 #schooleducation

As educators and curriculum designers we need to keep these styles in focus every time we develop a curriculum objective or even modify our strategies and environment. Somehow we tend to forget that each child has a distinct learner style and engaging multiple diversity within the classroom could be challenging for the teacher. Let's make life simpler for the person standing in the classroom. Provide resources to the facilitator so that they can focus more on helping the learner rather than burdened with mundane tasks. #teachertraining #classroom #mentor #coaching #educationforall #inclusion #curriculumdesign #earlychildhood #lessonplanning

📚 Why to support ABIM -After-School Program 🌟 At ABIM, we believe in the power of after-school programs to transform the lives of underprivileged children. Many kids in higher classes like Class 4 and 5 struggle with basic literacy skills—they can't recognize alphabets or write their own names. When the basics aren't clear, being in a higher class doesn't help a child succeed. This is where ABIM steps in. Our after-school program helps children solidify their foundational knowledge, ensuring they are at par with their peers. By attending the ABIM center, these kids learn not just for the sake of going to school, but to truly understand and thrive. Support ABIM and be a part of this crucial mission to give every child the education they deserve. Together, we can make a real difference! https://lnkd.in/gEgUYUzM #SupportABIM #AfterSchoolPrograms #EducationForAll #TransformingLives #IndiaEducation
