“Insights on Happy Learning and AI Integration in Education: An Interview with Miss DS Diva, Principal of DPS NAD”

DS Divya, Principal, Delhi Public School NAD said “AI is essential, but it should complement, not replace, human intelligence” What is the focus of your institution, DPS NAD? Our school, which started in 2023-24, is a budding branch. We strive for happy learning where children can learn joyfully without stress. We focus on value-based education, ensuring children not only acquire knowledge but also maintain strong ethical values. Can you explain more about the core values of your school? Happy learning is a core value of our school. We don’t support stressful or rote learning methods. Our belief in value-based education ensures that while our children explore modern learning tools like AI, they also uphold strong ethical principles. How do forums like today’s event help your institution and the community? Forums like today help by providing insights into the latest educational trends like AI integration, while also emphasizing the importance of human intelligence. It helps us learn how to effectively incorporate new technologies without letting them overshadow the role of teachers. What is your perspective on AI in education? AI is essential, but it should complement, not replace, human intelligence. It’s crucial that AI is used correctly, without dominating the role of teachers. We use visual learning tools in our school, but we believe that the teacher should remain at the center of the learning process. How does LinkedIn help in the educational sector? LinkedIn is an important platform for connecting globally. It allows educators and institutions to easily approach and interact with one another, sharing insights and building relationships across borders, which is crucial in today’s globalized world. What message would you like to give to ArdorComm Media on their anniversary? I would like to congratulate ArdorComm Media on their third anniversary. They’ve helped educate us through various platforms, and we look forward to attending more of their programs to continue learning and growing.  

Dr. Bhavna Chibber, Principal, Laburnum Public School, Gurugram, Emphasizes on Skill Based Learning

 “Skills are unique, indigenous, and the educators, who are the curators in the classroom, must know what kind of skill to develop in each learner,” says Dr. Bhavna Chibber, Principal, Laburnum Public School, Gurugram, in an Interview with Pratik Ghosh, Content Writer, ArdorComm Media Group at the ‘New Normal – Education Leadership Summit & Awards 2023’ #ELSANewDelhi #ELSAGurugram How are you feeling to witness the New Normal Education Leadership Summit and Award? It was an awesome experience to listen to all the dignified personalities. We have learned so many things here, and the discussions were so interesting that we thought this kind of conference should be held for our leaders. These kinds of forums are essential. I’m thankful to ArdorComm Media for providing the opportunity to educators to spread their wings, learn, and take the lead. In this new normal, adaptability and flexibility are crucial skills, and now is the time when we’re preparing our learners to thrive in this world. So, thanks to ArdorComm Media for providing this platform for leaders to share, learn, collaborate, and grow. What’s your take on skill-based learning and the multi-disciplinary approach in education? There are two different things: skill-based learning and the multi-disciplinary approach. When we talk about Saksham, we follow a 5S philosophy: Saksha, Saksham, Samarth, Shodak, and Sanskar. There’s a thin line difference between Saksham and Samarth. For example, consider car driving. I drive a car, so it’s easy for me to understand how the clutch works, how to change gears, etc. But how competent am I? That’s called Saksham. Skill development is about preparing learners for the future, not just for the near future, but for the years ahead. Skills are unique, indigenous, and the educators, who are the curators in the classroom, must know what kind of skill to develop in each learner. Regarding the interdisciplinary approach, terms like interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, and transdisciplinary have been integrated. Collaborative projects are a key strategy to enhance the interdisciplinary approach on the school campus. Any message for the ArdorComm Median on its 2nd anniversary? Keep soaring high, the sky is the limit.
