DELHI PUBLIC SCHOOL, DAULATPUR
ANNUAL REPORT (2021-2022)
“Aristotle rightly said that educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all”.
The academic session 2021-22 commenced under the guidance of the DPS Daulatpur management from 3rd April,2021 for all classes amidst the lockdown due to COVID 19.The syllabus to be covered along with the lesson plan and the timetable was framed online keeping in mind the physical and mental well-being of the students, without overburdening them.
One activity period along with other subjects were scheduled everyday.WhatsApp group of students of each class was created . The study material in the form of PPTs,Videos,hand written notes, You Tube links, were shared to the students on WhatsApp group at the assigned time on working days. The major teaching platform Microsoft Teams was used.
The study material and training session by the DPSS for Academic Excellence was instrumental in such trying times. Teachers underwent a variety of training from Diksha and CBSE and kept themselves updated. The IT teachers and assistance provided enough training for us through Microsoft Teams platform.
“It is not the strongest of the species that survives,nor the most intelligent; it is the one mostadaptable to change”. Technology cannot replace great teachers.However technology in the hands of great teachers can be a transformation. Classroom teaching was partially taken away by virtual teaching.
