In this article, we'll be taking a look at what is coding and how will it help and how can you get started with some basic coding concepts for kids. What is Coding?

Coding is a way for people to communicate with machines and tell them what to do without having to type every little command. Why should we learn Coding? Coding is the language of the future.

‘My school, My pride’- It’s time to pay back:

If I am using the pen to write this piece of the campaign, there are teachers behind me . If I am thinking to draft this campaign, there are teachers behind me. If I am able to express my thoughts to you, there are teachers behind me. If I am able to explore the design of this campaign, there are classrooms which taught me to explore. As in cricket, in life too everybody has their turn to showcase their strengths and abilities. Now it’s your turn. If you have studied in school, do you have passion and courage to support the school in this difficult times? Are you ready? Even a phone call to your teacher might make a difference. Are you ready?

How to build your own high quality instructional videos:

🚨 *Dear Education Leaders,* I believe the pandemic has forcefully pushed India’s Education System  10 years forward. Now willingly or unwillingly our teachers need to understand the need of this hour. The need for this our is to accept that now the teaching wouldn’t be dependent just on the lecture we have to bring self-made videos for our stduents. Teacher self-made video will not only motivate students to attend the online class but definitely, it will encourage them to understand the chapter in their own way by their own- subject teacher voice. With my little wisdom and experience, I would request all leader to train your teachers making own Self Instructional Videos. With this, I am sharing the small effort of my research in this group. Hope it will help you all. Click to view the file: Regards Md Hasmat Ali IMS Creative School Founder & Director Note: the above message and document is shared by the creator himself.
