The firms not only believe that these gadgets would help students in classroom teaching but they ensure that these gadgets will help them in the outside world. The development of eBooks, Kindle, ePubs, interactive games, AI applications, and other tools teaches a child better than school by giving them real-world examples and interactive experiences.
Furthermore, the firms also ensure that these gadgets would ensure that your children are safe and secure while you are not with them. The development of various security applications for girls ensures their safety and connectivity with their loved ones on the go.
Understanding the need to make our children competitive in the outside world, ensure their safety, and to integrate the various possibilities in the system that these gadgets bring with them, many education firms and institutions have given a green signal to the various gadgets which they believe is necessary for the holistic growth of a child.
Here, at Infant Jesus School, Ambernath, we work towards the comprehensive growth of a child. We not only ensure that they study, perform, and achieve grades in their class but, we also ensure that when they move out of the school, they have all the basic and relevant skills that are demanded by the industry. We allow them to use gadgets so that they develop the basic technical skills that are fruitful and are needed by the organizations.
The good use of gadgets and the modern technology allow them to have an advantage in the industry. They need not learn the skills separately as we have inculcated their teachings in the school itself. We offer a separate lab session where we allow our children to use the different gadgets, understand their use, and utilize them in their work. We give assignments and a number of tests to our children that they can complete by utilizing these modern technologies.
The teaching sessions given to children allow them to have basic computing skills like how to operate the gadgets, how to access them and how they can utilise them to perform the various tasks. In the end, we conduct tests, viva, and presentation through which we evaluate their knowledge and their performance with these gadgets. This ensures that they have learned and understood the basic functionalities of these devices.
At Infant Jesus School, we believe that Gadgets have their place in education but they are not a substitute for knowledge. We believe that they are necessary for the modern world and they act as a source of information through which children can become more competitive in the international marketplace. But, we also ensure that our children are not so much occupied with these gadgets that they forget other things around them.
“It is we who created these gadgets, the gadgets have not created us.”
