examination-oriented. As education is a state matter and there are in all there
are 26 states. There is little scope for innovation and use of technology in
regular teaching

In this part we will
discuss a methodology of supplementing regular teaching to make the subject
matter more lively and stimulating.
(3) My experiences of
conducting math labs.
In this part we will
discuss my personal experiences of conducting math lab sessions for middle
school students (age 13-14) and for senior secondary students (age 16-17).
Part (2) and (3) of the
talk will have multimedia presentations.
