टीच फॉर इंडिया ने बेंगलुरु में इंस्पायरईडी कॉन्क्लेव में श्री नारायण मूर्ति की उपस्थिति में ‘इक्विटी के लिए शिक्षा’ पर एक पैनल चर्चा आयोजित की।
इंफोसिस के संस्थापक और अध्यक्ष श्री नारायण मूर्ति ने पैनल पर बोलते हुए कहा, “मेरा दृढ़ विश्वास है कि युवा दिमाग को आकार देने में शिक्षक की भूमिका से ज्यादा महत्वपूर्ण कोई नहीं है और इसमें कोई संदेह नहीं है कि शिक्षा सबसे महत्वपूर्ण उपहार है। जो हम एक बच्चे को दे सकते हैं। आज शिक्षक प्रशिक्षण पर ध्यान देने की आवश्यकता है ताकि सभी सरकारी शिक्षक भी शिक्षण को प्रासंगिक और आकर्षक बनाने के लिए नवीन शिक्षण विधियों का उपयोग कर सकें। सरकारी स्कूलों को ‘टीच फॉर इंडिया’ जैसे नागरिक समाज संगठनों से समर्थन लेना चाहिए ताकि बच्चों को समान अवसर मिल सकें।”
Teach for India conducts a panel discussion on ‘Education for Equity’ attended by Mr. Narayana Murthy at the InspireED Conclave in Bengaluru.
Speaking on the panel, Mr Narayana Murthy, Founder and Chairman, Infosys said, “I am of the firm belief that there is no role more important than of a teacher in shaping young minds and there is no doubt that education is the most important gift that we can give to a child. Today, there is a need to focus on teacher training so that all Government teachers can also use innovative teaching methods to make learning relevant and engaging. Government schools should take support from civic society organizations like ‘Teach For India’ so that children can have equal opportunities.”
Bengaluru, 21 January 2023: Teach For India organised its second annual InspirED Conclave at a government school at Mahadevapura, Bengaluru. The highlight of the event was a panel discussion on the topic of ‘Education for Equity’ to address the gaps in educational equality in India. The panels saw the likes of Mr. Narayana Murthy, Founder and Chairman, Infosys, Ms. Vigya Jain from Snehadhara, Mr. Shekar Hariharan, founder and CEO of Shifting Orbits Foundation, Mr. Mangal Pandey, co-founder and CEO of Key Education Foundation, Mr. Vikram Bhat, who has worked as a consultant to Office of the Deputy Chief Minister, Delhi Government, Ms. Arpitha and Ms. Fareya, a grade 8 Student from St. Saras High School in Koramangala and Ms. Sitara Chandran from Christel House. Students on the panel spoke about the need for learning to be inclusive, joyful and fun, and for teachers to focus on building strong relationships with their students and their families.
Speaking on the panel, Mr Narayana Murthy, Founder and Chairman, Infosys said, “I am of the firm belief that there is no role more important than of a teacher in shaping young minds and there is no doubt that education is the most important gift that we can give to a child. Today, there is a need to focus on teacher training so that all Government teachers can also use innovative teaching methods to make learning relevant and engaging. Government schools should take support from civic society organizations like ‘Teach For India’ so that children can have equal opportunities.”
Speaking about the conclave, Ms. Tulika Verma, City Director, Teach For India Bengaluru, said, “The aim of this conclave is to spark a conversation on what an excellent education can look like and what it can do. There is an urgent need for all of us to see, experience and believe that a learning environment that is safe, joyful and at the same time outcome-oriented is possible. When we are able to create learning in a way that involves children as equal partners, we create outcomes that are more rigorous and more holistic. The only way to bring about change in the country is by transforming our classrooms into microcosms of India we wish to see. The problem of education is complex and requires the Government, private players and civic society to come together along with students and solve challenges. We hope this space provides the inspiration and the path to be able to do that.”
Through the day, participants stepped into the shoes of a child, experienced a difficult class and a joyful class, saw a range of solutions and participated in conversation and problem solving on how to create education that leads to equity. The event saw participation from multiple NGOs in the region, many of which are staffed by alumni of the Teach For India Fellowship. The participating organisations included Mantra 4 Change, Key Education Foundation, Dream School Foundation, Shifting orbits, Udhyam Learning Foundation, Involve Learning, Augmented Understanding, Durga Schools, RGH School, Snehadhara Foundation, Sukrupa Schools, Project Defy, Sneha Charitable Trust among others. Each of these organizations showcased their work alongside Teach For India Student and Fellow projects.
The day ended with a closing synthesis where participants shared their own commitment of what they would do in their own capacity to bring about educational equity in the state.

The purpose of my visit through the Fulbright Scholar Award is to share a new and a practical teaching methodology with the faculty in Rural College Kanakapura. This reform is overdue especially in the rural communities.
During the first phase of this project, I studied the current teaching practice through surveys and focus group interviews. Subsequently, I introduced a student-centered instructional method called “the flipped classroom.” Faculty are now implementing this teaching method in their classrooms. I will study 1) faculty experience in designing, implementing and refining their teaching method; 2) the benefits and challenges they face as they adapt this new technique. Faculty will eventually serve as the ambassadors of change that would help students become better learners and stronger citizens said Chaya Gopalan, Ph.D., FAPS, Professor, Departments of Applied Health & Nurse Anesthesiology, at press meet held at press club of Bangalore.
