PATNA: One hundred government schoolteachers from all the 38 districts in the state attended an orientation workshop about the importance of ‘DIKSHA’, a national portal launched by the ministry of human resource department (HRD) recently. The two-day workshop, which is being held under the aegis of state council of education research and training (SCERT), was inaugurated by state education department secretary Robert Chongthu.Speaking on the occasion, Chongthu lauded the Centre’s efforts to link teachers across the country through DIKSHA (digital infrastructure for knowledge sharing), which is a common portal to share their vision and planning to improve the quality of teaching at school level. “These teachers can share their best practices and new ideas about teaching methodology to be adopted right from primary to senior secondary level,” he said, adding this was the first orientation workshop on ‘DIKSHA’ in the state.“Bihar has no dearth of talent. Teachers can give their best if they are given an ideal atmosphere and better infrastructure in government schools. It is a good initiative taken by the Centre to update knowledge and experiences among teachers and students,” Chongthu said.SCERT deputy director-cum-state DIKSHA nodal officer Manju Lall said five nodal districts were identified in the state from where teachers could be trained in new learning methodology. “Their innovative ideas and best practices will be uploaded to the DIKSHA website for teachers of other states,” she said.Lall said the Union government had provided adequate funds for making ‘DIKSHA’ a great success in Bihar. “Though five other states have already made a good beginning on DIKSHA campaign, Bihar will be second to none as it has launched it on high confidence with full cooperation from the state government and institutions,” she said, adding the basic objective of DIKSHA is ‘our teachers — our heroes’.Resource persons Sarthak Parthasarthy from Odisha and Chinmay from Patna dwelt at length on the need of making ‘DIKSHA’ a great success in Bihar like other five states of Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.Earlier, SCERT director Binod Kumar Singh welcomed the guests and hoped Bihar would leave no stone unturned to make ‘DIKSHA’ a popular portal for teachers to share knowledge and experiences in various fields of studies and research.
