Special Lecture by Mrs. Kaveri Dutt

On April 26, 2022, the Department of B.Ed. of Loreto College, Kolkata, organised a special lecture by Mrs. Kaveri Dutt, member of the Loreto Education Board, on �Teachers in the New Normal.� Mrs. Dutt elucidated the myriad aspects of the �new� normal in the academic sphere, including the use of artificial intelligence in a classroom, a flipped classroom, the pros and cons of remote learning, and a real classroom maintaining all Covid protocols. She observed that a smooth trajectory of the teaching-learning process in the �new� normal calls for certain new skills, which both teachers and learners need to imbibe. The teacher-trainees gained an insight into the significance of education in conflict zones such as war-torn Ukraine. Rather than being complacent in the �new� normal world order, the teacher-trainees were urged to be conscious every moment and to design innovative ways to prepare their students for the VUCA world�a world that is increasingly becoming Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous. The trainees were also introduced to the Mary Ward Schools� Compass, which suggests that the education system must be Rooted, Responsive, and Relevant. Mrs. Dutt�s lecture was enriching and inspiring for the teacher-trainees. Two poignant video clips � �Be a Mr. Jenson� and �Mazira� � encouraged the trainees to go beyond established practices in teaching and explore newer horizons in order to motivate their learners with effective creative tools.
