25. Virtual classrooms: World of better learning

As usual, we were expecting a normal academic year 2020-21. But then, the shades of Wuhan fell in different parts of the country and we were forced to follow certain protocols like social distancing, wearing masks in public places etc to prevent the spread of this pandemic COVID-19. The management arranged a motivational cum counselling class on how to get acquainted with the Online Classes. Dr. Arun B. Nair, Psychiatrist, Medical College, Trivandrum, handled a very fruitful session on 'The unexpected online classes and its impact among the students.'He urged the students to resort to the Desktop/ Laptop as far as possible and also to abstain from the Mobile Phones so as to reduce eye strain. To avoid distractions, he advised the students as well as the teachers to mute the various notifications and advertisements. The duration for the class suggested was 45 minutes to one-hour in order to have better retention capacity. After each period, a short break is needed for relaxing and stretching the body. He also urged the students to keep the eyes closed for 5 to 10 seconds to have a quick relaxation. While preparing notes, the main points can be jotted down. The interactive session shall be arranged towards the concluding part of each class. A regular exercise is badly needed to keep away from frustrations and to enhance concentration. Mindful breathing can be inculcated to enhance concentration. Deep breaths help in reducing stress considerably. Seven to eight hours of sleep is required to maintain verbal memory.

SCV tried craft, music, yoga and counselling session as kids struggle with online classes

As learning goes online, to keep students away from schools and safe at home, primary and kindergarten children barely out of their toddler years are struggling to make sense of this new version of school, which not so long ago meant playing, reciting poems and making clay models with friends.

Sarvodaya Central Vidyalaya was ready with a solution for that. The school started off with Craft sessions by Mrs. Geena Flower & Mrs. Mary Matilda, Yoga sessions by Mr. Sajin Prasad,Music classes by Mrs. Manju Thomas and Dance classes by Mrs. Sindhu Joseph along with counselling sessions and other educational videos to keep the students engaged and help their lives fall into a routine similar to that before the lockdown.
