Room to Zoom...

In a flash, we moved from the real to virtual world, from teaching in a room to teaching on Zoom.

We, teachers, felt apprehensive about teaching an online class, but online instruc�on created new ways of

student and teacher engagement that made posi�ve and rewarding experiences.

Many teachers would agree that one of their great joys of teaching is the rela�onship that develops in the

classrooms.

Classroom rela�onships are a hugely important part of student learning. While it can be more difficult to

build rela�onships in a virtual se�ng, it is s�ll very important to do so. We try to share ourselves with our
students in ways we are comfortable with while maintaining our own personal boundaries.

Overnight, the tradi�onal classrooms have been transformed into a virtual classroom via latest
technologies and the tradi�onal teacher has become a virtual teacher.

Amidst all this, the teaching community is clouded with the doubt whether students are learning effec�vely

through virtual methods. The answer to this is an affirma�ve YES. The Science Fair held in January is the
proof for the same.

With open-ended topic ques�ons, students get a chance to post though�ul answers, post their own
ques�ons and comments to which the teacher can give feedback and ask other learners to provide insights
as well. Small group/project work allows students to share ideas, solve problems and discuss the content

together. With all these learning experiences, this year has indeed been a wonderful one.
