Teaching is a passion for Jaipuria Institute of Management, Indore\u2019s Assistant Professor, Pooja S. Kushwaha.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have selected this career not by chance – I love teaching,\u201d she says, and that love of teaching translates into active classroom sessions. \u201cMy teaching philosophy emphasises active student participation in learning through the support and development of significant and innovative thinking skills. Students are encouraged to be actively involved in my class, discussing concepts, exercises and problems. It is essential, especially in IT, for students to construct their own knowledge and build upon prior information by actively questioning previous knowledge and developing new concepts.\u201d<\/p>\n
Prof. Kushwaha says, \u201cTo accomplish classroom participation from students in my class, I utilise a variety of teaching strategies to facilitate learning for different types of students. I introduce more real-life applications that increase the students\u2019 interest and specifically address why the material is relevant.\u201d<\/p>\n
