Students told to develop leadership qualities

Eluru: Siddhartha Educational Society secretary and correspondent Koneru Suresh Babu called upon the students to develop leadership qualities.

The institute felicitated Sister B K Lavanya marking the conclusion of five-day orientation programme for teachers at a programme held at Siddhartha Vidyalaya here on Sunday.

Speaking on the occasion, institution correspondent Koneru Suresh Babu said teachers should utilise the tools of information and communication technologies.

The purpose of classroom teaching should be to clear doubts, he added.
Sister BK Lavanya said students should be given opportunities to study topics of their interest. She said education should be an empowering process that guides students to develop their passions, critical thinking, compassion, and wisdom for timely action.

She said the curriculum should be broad and flexible and designed in such a way that students become lifelong learners and contributors to the profession.

The learning process should shift to laboratory- and internship-oriented, she added.
Chinmayananda Mission Chaitanya Mataji, noted educationalists C K R Mohan Rao, Krishnakumari Y Bharathi V Radhakrishna Murthy V Eswar K Ramanjaneyulu J Suresh and others spoke on the occasion.

Siddhartha schools headmasters V Dhanalakshmi B SravanthiK Swarnalatha, G S Lavanya, G Nagaraju, K Nanaji, K Venkatesan and S Bhaskar were also present.
