The Central Board of Secondary Education will train teachers in ‘experiential learning’ through the Diksha platform. Announcing this, the HRD Minister tweeted “When our teachers are equipped with 21st-century skills, it becomes easier for our children to absorb and learn those competencies.”

The course is offered by CBSE in collaboration with Tata Trust and is meant for both teachers and school leaders including principals. HRD Minister asked educators to join the course and learn through it. “I would request them all to join this incredible course. Let’s strive to make the learning process for our students more joyful, reflective, and multidisciplinary,” he wrote further.

“Educationists world over have realized that education requires many leaps forward for a world where children are emotionally and physically resilient to face the challenges of a different world to come. For this, we need to create opportunities for children to learn the skills and competencies for the 21st century that correspond to both livelihood and well-being”, the board stated.
