Teaching aids are an integral component in any classroom. Teaching aids not only help reinforce a skill or concept but also relieve monotony or boredom by presenting information in an interesting and exciting way by engaging all the senses of students. Good teaching aids play a vital role in enhancing learning. Many teachers in the country are involved in making teaching aids and improvised apparatus for demonstrations in their classrooms. However their isolated efforts in the schools do not get recognition at any platform except their own schools.
CBSE always tries to find and recognize hidden talent and continuing this tradition it is providing the teachers of its affiliated schools a platform i.e. CBSE School Teachers’ Teaching Aids/Material Competition to showcase their efforts in development and use of innovative teaching aids.
OBJECTIVES
To encourage creative and innovative classroom demonstrations by teachers.
To provide opportunity to teachers to share their creative and innovative approaches and ideas in teaching.
