Why traditional education needs a phase shift now? A definite change in traditional education is needed. People have been talking about it for ages but nothing much has changed. The present system of schooling was introduced in India by the Britishers to bring up a working-class, fit for the industrial development that was coming in. Decades & centuries have gone by since that purpose was met but the system of education did not change. It became a norm, almost a lineage to continue through the years and generations. Britto’s System In St.Britto’s Best cbse school in velachery, Chennai. we strongly believe nature-based education for young children. The curriculum is structured in such a way that it inculcates young children from Kinder garden to higher class to contribute to social responsibility towards the nation.Integration of nature in the curriculum enables the teachers to implement good childhood practices as well as environmental education practices in real life. Students have daily outdoor time as part of the curriculum. As a result of which it creates a more justifiable society through the leadership of education. Education Reimagined Many school systems do not have the basic technological advances.They don’t provide access to digital tools.The pandemic has affected all sectors of society, especially in our education systems.The pandemic caused by the Coronavirus, shut schools, kept kids at home, and also paved a new way of teaching through online schooling. Teachers became innovative in their teaching techniques, skills, and imparting concepts. A new wave of change in teaching has developed and is continuing to develop in these past two years. This is the time to make the change in syllabus, subjects, etc., making it relevant to today's and tomorrow's needs. With the way, things are progressing, using schools as a place to learn, might too become passé. People/students may or may not sit through a regular education school. Online classes too will cater to a huge chunk of learners. Blended / hybrid learning will soon become the norm. Attending schools for practical sessions and learning from home for theory sessions would soon be the trend. Despite the disadvantages of Online teaching,there are various advantages to be considered during this lockdown. • Students build the habit of self-learning. • It is cost-effective(Ebooks,study materials,reference articles) • It inculcates more social interactions. Students can post their queries in discussion forums and get their relevant answers. • The analytical tool will give an in-depth report about each student.With this, the mentor can track the interest of the students. Further, the mentor can structure the aid according to the student's pattern. • Students can revisit the class that they missed.The students can go through the material at their convenient time. As the notes are uploaded by the mentor. • As in traditional teaching, we follow the chalk and talk method but the online class will enable the child to explore the concepts differently with features like drag and drop.It can be accessed on any platform and device of their choice. • It improves computer science,mathematics, and other technical skills, which are useful in the work environment. Therefore, a whole paradigm change in education is needed. Concepts and topics that are irrelevant need to dropped and new concepts need to be introduced. The present school education system will soon become a spoken about the system I'd education like the "Gurukuls" of yester-centuries. The pandemic has shown us learning can happen even from home.
