Multimedia classroom is an innovative idea in the context of
our country. The Education system would turn into revolutionary shape if it is
truly implemented in the school of urban and rural areas. At present Government
is relentlessly and sincerely working
hard to set up a structure in digital format to educational institutions. Decision
of introducing dynamic website and multi-media classroom to secondary and
higher secondary schools could be termed as a milestone step. Many institutions
have already started the projects. In spite of its bright side, setting up a
multimedia classroom has huge
challenges.
Positive mindset: Any new idea takes time to adjust and keep aside the age old
conventional way of thinking. Multimedia class room is a new and more modern approach in the perspective
of our country. In the country where ‘chalk and talk’ plays a dominant role in the class room situation. So mindset
change is vital that needs to start from the top position in the school
administration.
Stakeholder’s roles: Different bodies that relate to
governing different category of educational institutions can play effective role in initiating the
process of introducing multimedia classroom in their respective institutions.
Their roles are considered to be very needful for such projects involve
moderate investment. Stakeholders need to be well informed on the subject
matter with a view to making them understand
the necessity of the projects and its implementation at the grass root
level.
Concerted efforts: Reinforcement of learning in the mind
of the students is possible when
students find amusement in the learning process. The simple message requires to
be perceived by all concerned parties. Teachers
who are the key players in the classroom should come forward with highest
efforts. Training in multimedia classroom teaching should be provided to maximum teachers and those trained teachers
can also start in-house training on the subject matter for the up gradation of
their fellow colleagues. These concerted efforts would go on cycle. Follow up
monitoring with the long term
vision need to continue.
No challenge
is possible to overcome unless it is addressed properly. Appropriate use of
multi media in imparting knowledge can
be the best choice to ensure quality education. Multimedia class room should be
the indispensable part of teaching and learning system. There is no alternate
to standard form of education in this competitive age.
