Co-curricular activities refer to activities outside the standard curriculum that are meant to supplement classroom learning. They provide opportunities for creative thought, social and organizational skill development, and allowing students to explore their interests and talents. Some examples of indoor activities include music, dance, drama, debate, art, and math clubs. Outdoor activities can include sports, yoga, gardening, and community service. Co-curricular activities offer students benefits like improved communication, time management, moral development, self-motivation, analytical skills, and patience. Teachers play an important role in organizing these activities and providing opportunities for student growth.

OBJECTIVES OF TEACHING SCIENCE
Education is a process of bringing about changes in an individual in a desired direction. It is a process of helping a child to develop his potentialities to the maximum and to bring out the best from within the child. To bring about these changes we teach them various subjects at different levels of school. Science as subject is included in the school curriculum from the very beginning.
Before taking any decision about teaching science we should pose certain questions to ourselves, such as,
• Why do we teach them science?
• What are the goals and objectives of teaching science?
• What changes does science teaching bring about in the behaviour of the students?

The Importance Of A Good School Environment For Creative DevelopmentKapilPunetha2
It is long-discredited that creative development is limited to paintings, pencils, and colours. This way of thinking is believed to be equally crucial for people working in STEM fields as it is for those in the arts.
One study even highlighted creativity as one of the most desirable traits for an employee amongst 1500 CEOs worldwide. As such, success depends on how much exposure we’ve had to creative thinking and learning, making the school the perfect place to begin creative development.
In this article, we have compiled for you seven creative school approaches for the creative development of children.

Teaching is not a spectator sport, neither is learning. That is why most of
the teachers cannot keep their students engaged in their course or the
classroom. Accordingly, students can never learn anything just by sitting in the classroom and listening to their teachers, as well as spitting out prepared answers or memorizing pre-defined assignments.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
- RUQIA FERHEEN
LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/ruqiaferheen
High school can be tough. Maybe you’re busy getting ahead, or
maybe you’re busy just trying to keep up. It’s understandable if
you feel you need to focus on academics. But the truth is, if
you’re always working, you could be missing out on something
equally as important. Co-curricular activities fuel your learning
by stimulating creative thought, improving your social and
organizational skills, developing your interests and talents, and
offering you the chance to switch off and do something you really
enjoy. So, if we’ve captured your imagination, here are our picks
for the top benefits of co-curricular activities in high school.
Introduction:
Science and technology develop every single day. Skillsets are
redefined every fortnight. Schooling is no exception, teaching through
non-academic or co-curricular activities are gaining prominence
across the world. Let’s understand what these co-curricular activities
are and how they can change your kid's life for the better.
Subsequently, we will have a look at some indoor and outdoor co-
curricular activities which are available for students.
What are co-curricular activities?
Co-curricular activities refer to all the activities performed by students
to enhance their life skills. Wherein curricular activities comprise
academic and scholastic activities.
Co-curricular activities can be performed individually or in groups,
inside or outside the classroom depending on the nature of the
activity. Psychologists too recommend co-curriculum activities to
help kids with all-round development. A balanced set of activities will
ensure all-round development for kids at school.
2. Definition of Co-curricular Activities
“Co-curricular Activities are defined as the activities that enable
to supplement and complement the curricular or main syllabi
activities. These are a very important part and parcel of
educational institutions to develop the students’ personality as
well as to strengthen classroom learning.”
These activities are organized after the school hours, so known as
extra-curricular activities. Co-curricular Activities have a wide
horizon to cater to the cultural, social, aesthetic development of the
child.
Advantages of co-curricular activities
“The Extracurricular activity in which I was most engaged -debating-
helped shape my interest in public policy”, enunciated by Joseph
Stiglitz, American Economist, and Policymaker. Let us go through the
following points to understand the importance of co-curricular
activities.
Improves Communication Skills
Communication skills are extremely important in today's competitive
world.
Moreover, kids need time to understand how to express themselves,
active participation in the debate, or extempore speech can help them
relinquish their barriers.
Develops Methodical Time- Management Skills
One needs to learn time allocation and management in their school
life itself.
Balancing scholastic activities with co-curriculum activities will help
your kid understand the important principles of work-life balance.
3. Inculcates Moral Values and Decision-making ability
Our sense of justice and moral values stem from early childhood.
Even though various factors like family background and individual
traits play a key role, participation in co-curricular activities helps
kids gather their thoughts.
Teaches Self-motivation
When a kid struggles to learn a new skill in early childhood, he or she
experiences failure and feels rejected at times.
However, they keep trying and learn to motivate themselves.
Identification and rectification may sound complex for kids in junior
grades but a few kids astonishingly pick up their grades after
performing poorly in an examination.
Analytical Ability
Participating in the Mathematics Club or Mathematics exhibition is an
engaging recreational activity for kids.
These activities include games and mathematical modelling alike
which can be fun and challenging at the same time. These activities
help children analyse situations on their own. Kids can also solve
puzzles and simulations on Cue math to build analytical abilities.
Develops Patience
Children can be very restless at times and this might create problems
during examination. Kids tend to overlook important details
associated with questions.
Comprehension can also be cumbersome for some kids. Mental Math
or Math Puzzles help kids comprehend better. In the process of light-
hearted learning, kids tend to develop patience and interest.
4. List of some co-curricular activities
Let's look at a few co-curricular activities to have a better
understanding of all the activities which are available for your kids.
While picking a school for your kid, you might as well have a look at
all the co-curricular facilities the school has to offer. The list is
inexhaustible as schools and education boards are constantly updating
the available activities to provide the most likely experience for kids.
The list of Indoor Co-curricular activities is as follows:
Music

Role of a Teacher in organising curricular Activities
1. The teacher must be a good planner so that the different activities
could be carried out systematically throughout the year.
2. It should be the duty of the teacher to give more and more
opportunities for the child while performing co-curricular activities.
3. The Teacher should act as an Innovator by introducing some
innovative programs.
4. The teacher must be a good organizer so that the students experienced
a maximum of it.
5. He should too act like director, recorder, evaluator, manager,
decision-maker, advisor, motivator, communicator, coordinator, so
that the student and child could gain a maximum of finer aspects of
Co-curricular activities.
6. CONCLUSION
Co-curricular activities add balance to student life and help to
facilitate Physical, Emotional, and Cognitive development in kids.
Behavioural or concentration problems are common among kids.
Allow them to participate in school activities and they will learn
social behaviour. Stress is really bad for kids and hampers their
overall development. Various activities conducted by schools will
help you in parenting your child better.
