The International Teachers' Olympiad announces cash prizes worth Rs 10,00,000 to the top 100 teachers, along with a certificate and badge of excellence.
The education system is becoming more student-centred and adapting to new realities by abandoning old teaching techniques that have been in place for centuries. This is necessary to keep up with changing skill requirements and promote the evolution of education.
Suraasa is an excellent example of how edtech can play a vital role in empowering teachers and supporting their personal and professional growth.
The International Teachers' Olympiad tops the list of educational Olympiads by providing teachers with a unique opportunity to enhance their skills and knowledge. It is a step towards ensuring that teachers have the tools they need to deliver high-quality education and prepare students for the future.
Upskilling of teachers is not just a one-time investment but a continuous process that is necessary for the successful integration of technology into education. Technology itself is not the solution. It lies in capacity building and enabling teachers to use the technology.
Our education policy has placed a strong emphasis on improving teachers' skills through CPD and other upskilling means. It is time for teachers to go outside of their comfort zones and take charge of their own professional development, not just for themselves but also for their students.
Teaching creates equal opportunities for both men and women and has the capability to attract young minds into teaching as it offers better career prospects and work conditions that makes teaching a more competitive and mainstream career choice for everyone.
The Indian edtech industry stands on the brink of a bright future, with hybrid learning bridging the gap between technology and traditional education. The education sector is poised to soar to new heights with innovative solutions leading the charge.
The International Teachers Olympiad 2022 receives an overwhelming response, with registrations from 40,000 teachers from 1800+ schools. These teachers come from both government and private schools from 30+ countries.
The integration of online and in-person instruction is key, and Ed-tech holds the key to making this a reality. Technology has the power to enhance the effectiveness of teaching methods and make classroom management easier for teachers.
In a conversation with India Today, Rishabh Khanna, CEO & Founder, Suraasa, highlights the dire shortage of 11 million educators in the country. Private players need to bear the onus of creating adept teachers because the future of our children is at stake.
Teacher upskilling platform Suraasa has launched a new campaign #TeachersMatter. The campaign acknowledges the crucial role teachers play in shaping the brighter future of the generations to come. It also places teaching as the mainstream profession.
