Technology can’t replace teachers in real classrooms situations : Chamkaur Singh, DEO
Ferozepur, October 13, 2022: “Technology can’t replace teachers in the real classrooms situations; this is the main takeaway point of the teachers’ fests being organized in each district of the state.” These are the words the District Education Officer (DEO) Chamkaur Singh expressed at the district- level Teachers’ Fest held at Saragarhi Meritorious School, Hakumat Singh Wala about 25 kilometers from the district headquarters.
DEO, in his address to the teachers during the prize distribution ceremony at the culmination of the fest said that his inner concerns about the technology devouring the teachers in future have been settled after viewing the presentation of teachers teaching their topics using the various modes of technology. Technology will remain subservient to teachers in the real classroom situations. Technology can certainly be a useful tool at the hands of teachers but can never replace them.
Earlier in the day, about 100 teachers of various subjects from the 11 educational blocks participated in the event. These teachers had secured first positions in the block- level teachers’ fest recently. Cash prizes and certificates were given away to the first three position holders. Notably, the first positions holders have been earmarked to participate in the State- Level Teachers’ Fest to be held next month from November 2 to 4.
Geetika Monga bagged the first position in English Subject, whereas Rashpal Singh clinched the first place in SST. Raghav Kapoor in Physical Education, Sajan Kumar in Science, Meena Kumari in Art and Craft, Ranjita Rani in Hindi, Ashwani Sharma in Maths, Kiranjit Kaur in Punjabi, Nishchay in Lecturer segment and Sanjiv Kumar in Computers romped home victorious in their subjects.
Principals- cum- Block Nodal Officers Rajinder Kumar, Sunita Dhawan and Rupinder Kaur were among the panel of judges. Deputy DEO Komal Arora was also present to boost the participants. He also gave a special thanks to the principal of the school Pargat Singh Brar for hosting the event in a brilliant manner.
