Two Days Capacity Building Training on- Differential Instructions and Assessment

Differentiated instruction is an approach to instruction in which the teacher adapts the content, process, and product of lessons in accordance with each student's readiness, learning style, and interests. In differentiated instruction, the learning goals are the same for the entire class, but the required tasks, instructional approach, and materials used vary according to the needs of the individual students. Differentiated instruction is not a single strategy, but rather an approach to teaching that incorporates a variety of strategies
Because "one size does not fit all," it is imperative that a variety of teaching strategies be used in a differentiated classroom like direct instruction, inquiry-based learning, cooperative learning based on grouping small teams of students heterogeneously according to ability, interest, background, etc.
To create, enhance and develop good teaching skills and better classroom management, a Two Day Capacity Building Workshop on Differential Instruction and Assessment was organized under the aegis of DAVCAE for the teachers of various DAV schools of Jalandhar zone under the directions of Dr. Mrs. Rashmi Vij (A.R.O.).

She addressed the teachers with her inspiring words and explained differential learning through PPT. Aims and objectives of differential learning were discussed. Difference between traditional classroom and differentiated classroom were discussed. Every child is unique and special, makes differentiation a requirement for daily classroom practices. Classroom should be more interactive , less teacher centered , more interesting according to the cognitive needs of the child. Principles of differentiation of learning like learning environment, quality curriculum, essential knowledge of subject and pedagogy were discussed. Overall the session was brainstorming and enriching.
Second day workshops were held at different DAV Schools like Police DAV school Jalandhar , DRV DAV School Phillaur, Dayanand Model school Model Town Jalandhar , LJN DAV Model School Jalandhar. In this capacity building program on Differential Instruction and Assessment ,teachers discussed the syllabus and various techniques and methodologies of differential learning.

According to the Ministry of Environment affairs, about 20,000 tonnes of plastic waste is generated every day in the country, out of which only 13,000-14000 tonnes are collected. Therefore ,The FIT India Movement has been launched by the Hon’ble Prime Minister on 29th August, 2019. Inspired by honourable Prime Minister’s vision to make India Plastic free, DRV DAV Centenary Public School , Phillaur organised Fit India Plogging Run on 2nd October, 2019 to the areas contiguous to the school where the coterie of teachers and sweepers garnered plastic trash by visiting homes, streets and open spaces along the path of run. They made the public aware of the ill-effects of using plastic. They motivated the public that it‘s the time to say"goodbye" to single-use plastic and urged people to attempt curbing its use. They encouraged them to ban all types of plastic bags, thermocol disposable cutlery and discourage the use of artificial banners, flags, flowers, water bottles, plastic folders, etc. The Principal of the school, Dr. Yogesh Gambhir applauded the efforts of the teachers and claimed that it would be a befitting tribute to the Father of the Nation.
