Modern Schools and Their Approach to Learning

by Akash Sharma Akash Sharma

Traditional schools were designed so that children have uniform knowledge. But to excel they depended solely on the student's efforts. This approach would rank the students and decide which student gets into colleges. But it is different in modern schooling, which focuses more on the student's needs, and each student receives support to excel in academics and extracurricular activities.

 

Modern schools offer education in various learning and teaching methods. Modern schooling has evolved from chalk and board to whiteboard and now to smart boards, recitation and memorization, and interaction and practical learning. Teaching methods have evolved significantly over the years, like in The Shri Ram School, which is one of the top schools of Delhi.

Technology and Schooling: 

 

Technology has grown and become a vital part of the education system nowadays. Technology in education is a blended approach of computer usage and educational theory to facilitate learning. Modern schools use this technology extensively. Below are some beneficial aspects of technology in contemporary schooling.

Technology makes learning engaging and collaborative.

 

The evolution of new applications that support the learning process gives a new approach to the learning format like online education, skill development courses, webinars, live classrooms, short courses. Technologies like interactive software and applications used in education provide an interactive and more engaging environment. The gaming approach to learning where the students play and learn is much more beneficial with younger children. 

 

Technology allows the students to collaborate and save their work digitally. They can work upon their saved notes, posters, drawings. Together. This enhances learning through working in groups on a given topic.

Technology allows inclusion and creativity.

 

Students who need special attention in their academics can be involved in the classroom activities in such a way that would not have been possible before. They learn to read, spell and write at their own pace and compete with others eventually. In addition, technology enhances creativity in students as the content available online is never-ending. And those interested can find plenty of resources to learn, create and edit content.

Technology provides differentiation and increases productivity.

 

Teachers can allot different levels of learning to international students individually based on their learning capabilities. This approach ensures that none of the students are left behind in the learning process. As the class calendars are up to date and learning materials are always available, it increases student productivity to a greater extent.

 

Modern education provides holistic development of a student. It is ultimately a student-centered style of teaching. With the inclusion of best educational aids like innovative education, also called online learning, combined with the interactive approach, modern schooling makes sure that every pupil learns the subject in depth. Creativity and curiosity also incorporate life skills like critical thinking, decision making, analytical competency, and a sense of responsibility.
