Faculty Development Program (FDP) on Innovative Teaching Methods - May 31, 2024

The pedagogy of the teaching-learning environment has experienced significant changes over time, keeping the ever-changing business scenario. Today, imparting knowledge with the help of creativity and innovative tools, facilitated by behavioural and technological interventions, has become the order of the day. On one hand, these innovative instructional strategies facilitate more enjoyable learning environments and on the other, the trainers and faculty members get the opportunity to create a more hands-on learning environment in the class. This FDP aims to bring insight into certain innovative teaching methods, by using hands-on experiences, which faculty members may incorporate during their sessions, irrespective of the subjects they are handling.
