Innovative Pedagogical Strategies

Keynote speaker Seema Tiwary, Coordinator at Jusco School Kadma, introduced teachers to modern pedagogical methods and effective classroom practices designed to transform the learning environment.

Tiwary showcased a range of innovative strategies, including:

• Interactive Learning: Game-based activities, simulations, and role play.
