Opening Remark from Director Academic Research and training on WORKSHOP:

Bandana Garbyal, Director Academic Research and Training, Uttarakhand

I'm thrilled to be here today as we dive into an exciting venture in education – creating e-content for Uttarakhand. A warm welcome to all the fantastic participants, including Joint Director Kanchan Devradi, our hardworking Content Development Team, Deputy Director Shailendra Amoli, Workshop Coordinator R P Badoni, and our valued Subject Matter Experts.
In this room, we understand the power of technology in shaping education's future. The way we learn is changing, and our ability to adapt is key to preparing students for success in the digital age.
Uttarakhand, with its unique educational landscape, is at the forefront of this change. The State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT) is leading the charge in developing e-content for the Diksha portal. This effort not only aligns with the national education vision but also has the potential to transform how our students engage with learning materials.
I encourage each one of you to actively participate, share your insights, and contribute to refining the e-content development process. Together, we can build a digital hub of knowledge that empowers both our students and educators.
I'm looking forward to a productive and engaging workshop that propels us toward a future where technology enables quality education, closing gaps and creating opportunities for every learner in Uttarakhand.
