  • Course description:

 

Over the years, there have been visible changes in teaching style. The days when students had to sit passively and just listen while their teacher gave long lectures had gone. Scientific research has shown that innovative teaching methods have to be integrated into physical and virtual classrooms because they significantly improve the learning experience and knowledge retention.

In recent years the scope of knowledge in the field of science and technology has dramatically increased, and the human ability to adapt to new knowledge in science and technology has also increased. Therefore, there is an immense need for innovative and creative minds to explore unknown and unrevealed areas of different fields. The new teaching method, which we called the innovative and modern teaching method is more activity-based and centres the learner’s mind which involves them entirely in the process of learning. 

Learning objectives

 To cope with education challenges in the new era teachers must adopt modern ways of teaching. They are based on novel and innovative ideas and are specially designed keeping in mind the learning needs of students belonging to Generation Z or iGeneration. 

Modern teaching methods focus extra on questioning, demonstration, explaining, practical and collaboration strategies. Learning by doing, and a social, personalized or hybrid learning are some of the methods of how new generations learn. To respond effectively to these changing learning styles through the implementation of learning stations, shifting from ‘teacher’ to facilitator’, managing more group work, providing real-world case studies, outdoor education and teaching through activity-based learning teaching methods should be changed.  

 

The main goal of this course is to promote excellence and innovation in education by inspiring and empowering teachers to use innovative teaching methods and help them understand the importance of
