As we are in October 2021 now and The World Mental Health Day is observed on 10th October every year to raise awareness of mental health issues around the world and mobilize efforts in support of mental health.

Mental health is one of the most neglected areas of public health. About 1 billion people are living with mental disorders; 3 million people die every year from the harmful use of alcohol, and one person dies every 40 seconds by suicide. Social stigma, discrimination, and human rights abuses of people with mental health conditions further precipitate the situation of mental health disorders.

Everyone, everywhere can participate in this year’s campaign: as individuals, to take concrete actions in support of our own mental health, and to support friends and family who are struggling, as employers, to take steps towards putting programs in place for employee's wellness.

This year WHO gave the slogan for Mental Health Inequality  refers to the differences in the quality, access, and health care different communities and populations receive for mental health services

Rakhi- A Knot of Love

Raksha Bandhan is one of the most delightful way to celebrate the bond between brother and sister. DPSG Sushant Lok conducted a ‘Rakhi –Making Activity’ for the students of the primary wing on 20th August 2021. They made colourful Rakhis and Cards. Children used various decorative threads, stars, mirrors, beads, and flowers to make lovely Rakhis for their brothers and cousins. The activity was enjoyed by the students that tickled their creative side. 

Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties.

With the spirit of Independence in heart, DPSG, SL planned various activities in different classes to instill the feeling of patriotism in students. A Group Discussion on the topic “Freedom of Speech in India” was organized for Classes XI & XII on August 6, 2021 through virtual mode. Nikhil of Class XII B began the discussion by introducing the topic and stating his point. Thereafter, the newly elected school captain Aryan Marwah took the lead. The students of classes XI & XII stated their points and also gave the references of various clauses of Article 19 of our Indian Constitution which clearly depicts the Right to Freedom of Speech in a democracy. Ms Sapna Walecha, Senior School Coordinator judged the event and told the students about the importance of freedom of speech and participation in the life of students. School Principal Mrs. Meenu Chopra concluded the discussion by appreciating the efforts of the students as well as the organizing teachers. She also motivated the students and told them the significance of Group Discussions while seeking admission in reputed colleges.

Celebrating the spirit of 75th year of Independence, DPSG Sushant Lok organized an Intra-Class Debate Competition for the learners of Class X on 6th August 2021 on the topic ‘Patriotism is a Lost Virtue’. The aim of the competition was to develop public speaking skills among the learners and teach them to analyze the expression of their thoughts and views coherently. The speakers debated eloquently, and the highlight of the event was the question answer round by the interjectors which were aptly answered by the debaters. The best speaker award was bagged by Sanisha followed by B.Bhavya. The best interjector was awarded to Rishi Shukla.

DPSG  has introduced Citizenship curriculum in the foundation domain and the approach of learning is - how to engage pupils in regular lessons and activities within and beyond the classroom that include opportunities for active citizenship

• To inspire and train the students to be responsible and able citizens.

• To conduct inspirational activities and events to strengthen the WILL of the students to become committed citizens.

• To deliver the content to build the SKILLS required to be responsible citizens.

• To achieve an augmented awareness of global social issues through a Citizenship Studies Curriculum and a series of experiential, engaging and fun loaded activities and become global citizens 

Three main guidelines:

• Citizenship Studies based on the educating the students of the necessary information regarding the country’s history, geography and politics, the concept of Equality, Freedom and Human Rights, Roles and Responsibilities

• Citizenship Studies through the participation and experiences in the school and the locality.

• Citizenship Studies to provide the necessary tools, abilities, competences and values to the students, which will allow them to actively participate in the responsibilities they will face in the adult life.

Strategies to be used to implement and deliver it will be: 

• Active: emphasis on learning by doing- story enactments, cultural activities involving special days, national days, festivals, singing the National Anthem

• Interactive: uses discussion and debate on social issue videos, stories, news items, TED Talks etc

• Critical: encourages young people to think for themselves- through expressions in Art, Poetry, Songs, story narration

• Living Citizenship values; Special weeks- Honesty, Respect, Kindness, Compassion, responsibility; Courage, Environmental care, empathy etc. and Special Days: Independence Day, Republic Day etc.

• Field Trips and Engagement with community workers to understand their issues and problems 

• Case Studies, Creating Social Awareness through: Blogs, articles, through social Media 

• Addressing Adolescent Issues: skills needed to be effective in relationships, nature and consequences of racism, teasing, bullying and aggressive behavior and how to respond to them and ask for help.

Who would have thought that teaching – learning will take over the screen rather than the boundaries of the schools? The outbreak of Corona pandemic has made some unparalleled changes in our lives. As the nation went into lockdown, we at DPSG, SUSHANT LOK unlocked our creativity to teach and learn like never before. With the invincible spirit, we initiated the online teaching in the month of March. Keeping the holistic development of our students in mind, our teachers took the charge and started navigating the uncertain challenges of online teaching with bravery.

After a good research and brainstorming sessions, DPSG society decided to use “MICROSOFT TEAM” as a tool for blended learning in our schools. The rigorous training sessions and continuous support from the management, all the teachers become fluent and compatible with it. Teachers at DPSG, are using various tools like virtual whiteboard, video lessons, presentations, Sways and other reference material to make their sessions interesting and effective. Sessions are also being recorded and made available to the students for their future reference.

To review the understanding and progress of the students, various tools lie Kahoot, Padlets, crosswords, Answer garden etc. are being used regularly during the online sessions. After every “Unit of Inquiry” an online assessment is conducted through Microsoft Forms. To develop 21^st century skills and competencies among our learners, we provide them opportunity to get involved in research work. They are motivated to explore and find answers to some essential questions. It allows Students to become accountable for their own learning.

In conclusion, we believe that Blended Learning refers to the approach of education that combines traditional face – to – face classroom methods with online educational materials. It facilitates a community of inquiry and keep students engaged in the active learning.
