"Let students use technology to learn." No matter how distressing this may sound to some people, we certainly cannot deny the significance of technology in the 21st century and even in the anticipated hi-tech times. In context to this, Thakur International School (IGCSE & A Levels), is one of the top international schools in Kandivali (West), Mumbai that has left no stones unturned in integrating technology in classroom teaching and enabling continuous learning.

With an upsurge in online learning in the current time of pandemic, Thakur International School has set the seal on creating digital learning plans and imparting them to students effectively to enhance their learning experience from the comfort of their homes. With its countless online resources like daily learning sessions on Google Classroom and lectures through Hangouts Meet, virtual lesson plans, online assessments, grading system, and teaching through games, learning for students at TIS has become all the more interesting. 

TIS is one of the best schools of the Mumbai Western suburbs that equips students with an online learning platform such as AR/VR technology. In fact, it is the first school in Kandivali West to provide a 3D learning environment through AR/ VR facility- a one-of-its-kind futuristic methodology that helps students learn and explore without limits. TIS is a place where learning never stops and it has become a benchmark in using technology not as a trend but in preparing students for the hi-tech future. 

Teaching strategies based on education technology have certainly surpassed the conventional learning approaches. It has not only transformed the ways of teaching but has also made learning more interactive and interesting. Teaching aids like audio-visual presentations, use of projectors, and several computer applications have all made education a seamless learning experience at Thakur International School located near Borivali.

As online education continues to change the way we view education, especially in the time of pandemic, Thakur International School, continues to enrich access to education with a wide range of learning options and monitor student development, thereby helping them prepare for their future careers. 

Last but not the least, the significance of technology integration in education is well portrayed in the words of David Warlick, an innovator and leader in education technology - “We need technology in every classroom and in every student and teacher’s hand, because it is the pen and paper of our time, and it is the lens through which we experience much of our world.” The current Covid-19 pandemic is a perfect example truly depicting the words of David Warlick.
