“After this pandemic, in fact, we were forced to go for the new technologies like online classes and various types of even the assignments, conducting examinations, the proctored examinations in online,” says Dr. S. Sriman Narayanan, Vice Chancellor, VELS Institute of Science Technology in an interview with Pratik Ghosh, Content Writer, ArdorComm Media Group at the ‘New Normal – Education Leadership Summit & Awards 2023’ #ELSAChennai #ELSATamilNadu

How are you feeling to witness The New Normal Education Leadership Summit and Awards in Chennai?

Yeah, I think it looks very attractive and with a lot of people participating in it. And a lot of different themes are being discussed in different sessions. I think it will be useful to the people who are attending this, and it will be also useful to the administrators as well as the Vice Chancellors like me, even the directors and all the teachers who are attending here.

How are you implementing technology in your institution?

Yeah, ours is the VELS University, which is the VELS Institute of Science, Technology, and Advanced Studies. It is a deemed-to-be university. We house roughly around 15,000 people with 750 faculty members, and roughly we run around 120 different programs comprising of engineering, pharmacy, law, basic sciences, life sciences, education, so everything. After this pandemic, in fact, we were forced to go for the new technologies like online classes and various types of even the assignments conducting examinations, the proctored examinations in online. So we are implementing wherever it is required because now the minds of the people have changed, you know, from the classrooms to the online classes and other things. So accordingly, we are making more changes that are needed for the betterment of the students.

As you can see in this kind of forms, we bring in the education leaders, the EdTech players, as well as the government. So how does this kind of forum benefit the education sector according to you?

Actually, whenever there are gaps, we cannot say that all know everything. So, by attending such meetings, we could see that there is some information we are getting which can fill the gaps between what is existing and what is expected. So that way, it is very useful.

ArdorComm Media started in 2021, and we are close to completing two years of our existence. So what message do you want to share for ArdorComm Media Group?

Okay, right. You talk to the institutions, educational administrators, and you tell them that if this is the type of people that the other side is expecting, the product that is what they are expecting, and this is the gap. And we will be able to help you to fill this gap by providing all these arrangements. Then maybe that would be a better idea.
