Principal Premlata Baurai of GGIC Rajpur Road recently lauded the Fulbright TGC Program, highlighting its significant impact on the school's educational landscape. This program, focused on enhancing learning through gamification in Mathematics and Sciences, brought a fresh and engaging approach to the classroom, benefiting both students and teachers.
Fulbright teachers Corinna and Danielle, along with host teacher Ramesh Badoni, spearheaded the initiative. Ramesh Badoni, who teaches Physics to 12th-grade Physics students, collaborated closely with the visiting educators. His innovative methods in Physics, combined with the Fulbright teachers' expertise, created a dynamic learning environment that captivated the students' interest using dynamic virtual lab and Physical lab simultaneously in the lab session.
Corinna, one of the Fulbright teachers, took charge of the 9th-grade Mathematics class. Her use of gamification techniques made complex mathematical concepts more accessible and enjoyable for the students. Another Fulbright teacher, Danielle, worked with 6th-grade students, bringing her unique approach to teaching Mathematics to the younger learners. Her classes were filled with interactive games and activities that made learning fun and effective.
The collaboration between Fulbright teachers and the local educators at GGIC Rajpur Road has not only enriched the students' learning experiences but also provided valuable professional development opportunities for the teachers involved. Principal Baurai emphasized the importance of such international educational exchanges in fostering a global perspective and enhancing teaching methodologies.
After their teaching sessions at the school, Fulbright teachers Corinna and Danielle, along with host teacher Ramesh Badoni, visited the hill station of Mussoorie. They enjoyed sightseeing, exploring the hilltop Buddha Temple, strolling down Mall Road, and visiting the Company Garden and LBSNAA. Additionally, they interacted with the local pahadi people to gain insight into their lives in the hill stations.
Overall, the Fulbright TGC Program's implementation at GGIC Rajpur Road stands as a testament to the power of innovative teaching practices and cross-cultural collaboration in improving educational outcomes.
