Effective Teaching is not possible without Effective Learning. When the world is at a point of inflection, and immersing in digital and virtual teaching mode, it is getting exceedingly difficult to teach effectively and have active and enthusiastic learners in the classroom. In lecture-based face-to-face or online classes (with their cameras and mikes switched off), the teachers are unsure of whether their students are learning or not.
BMU hosted an ATAL (AICTE’s Teaching and Learning Academy) Faculty Development Program from the 5th-9th July 2021 on Instructional Design for Effective Teaching, with over 140 teachers and Professors across different disciplines attending the FDP. The workshop was attended by participants from around the country to gain expertise and confidence in conducting more engaging face-to-face and online classes.
