The Punjab Public School hosts IPSC Teachers’ Training

Day-1
2-day “Capacity Building Programme (CBP) for Educators” as part of In-Service Trainings (IPSC Teachers’ Training) was hosted by The Punjab Public School, Nabha from November 16-17, 2024. Teachers from 8 public schools of the country took part in the prestigious event. The eminent educationist Dr Sumer Singh was the chief guest and keynote speaker for the Opening Ceremony. He delivered his talk on the topic “Making a Difference.” He said educators can make a difference by providing 360° exposure to learners covering every aspect of personality development. The student-teacher bonding goes a long way in inspiring learners to be changemakers, he said. It is high time the legacy of old boarding schools be disbanded and schools made more transformational. Additionally, it is vital for students to understand the nuanced difference between charity and service. While charity often addresses immediate needs, service is rooted in sustainability and empowerment, cultivating a mindset that seeks long-term solutions to societal challenges. Schools must prepare learners to face the complexities of a rapidly changing world, equipping them with resilience, adaptability, and a proactive mindset. By embracing this holistic and forward-thinking approach, educators can truly transform the educational experience, enabling students not only to excel academically but also to thrive as empathetic, confident, and visionary individuals in the real world.
The second keynote speaker of the day was Capt AJ Singh. He delivered his talk on the topic “Rules are for Fools.” He dwelt at length on issues faced by boarders. It is high time we shunned stereotypes, pre-conceived notions and moribund traditions. The so-called “biases” have to be done away with to make a more cohesive and empathetic boarding schools community. The stigma around vital issues concerning teenagers has to be removed. Children need understanding and acceptance, he said. Everything cannot be decided by outdated rules.
The third keynote speaker of the day was Dr DC Sharma, Headmaster, The Punjab Public School, Nabha. He gave his talk on the topic “Digital Pedagogy & Learning Outcome Based School Education (Part-I)”. As a groundwork, he dwelt on Abraham Lincoln’s letter to his son’s teacher encapsulating parental expectations and a teacher’s role in the life of a child.
The fourth keynote speaker of the day was Dr Varun Kapoor, IPS, currently Special Director General of Police, Madhya Pradesh. He gave his talk on the topic “Challenges to Security in Cyberspace”. Sensitizing teachers on the topic, he said the only way to prevent getting trapped is changing your mindset with regard to the online behaviour. He said children are highly vulnerable to cybercrime and teaching them preventive measures is the only way out.

Day-2
The day started with Dr DC Sharma, Headmaster, The Punjab Public School continuing where he left on Day-1. Elaborating on the topic “Digital Pedagogy & Learning Outcome Based School Education (Part-II)”, he said digital pedagogy must be aligned with the provisions of NEP 2020 to make it more integrated whereby learners are taught subjects with bearing on many other aspects of knowledge.
The 2-day In-Service Trainings (IPSC Teachers’ Training) concluded in the afternoon. The chief guest Dr Varun Kapoor, Special Director General of Police, Madhya Pradesh presided over the Closing Ceremony. He gave away certificates to the participants and posed for a group photograph with them.
