Orientation course concludes

 

The 88th Orientation Course conducted by UGC-Academic Staff
College, Panjab University concluded on Panjab University campus here today.  
Fifty-three Assistant Professors coming from higher educational institutes of seven
states and belonging to 27 different disciplines attended the 4-week long programme
that aimed at enhancing the classroom teaching skills of teachers.
Speaking on the occasion the chief guest, Prof. B.S. Dahiya, former Vice-Chancellor,
Kurukshetra University emphasised on the issues of equity and quality in education and
asked the teachers to raise their voice against the rampant commercialization and
exploitation of humans and profiteering in educational sector. He called upon teachers
to resist this onslaught, being the conscience keepers of the society. But, sadly they
do not prefer doing so, he said.  
Prof. Shelley Walia, Director, Academic Staff College, elaborating on the theme of the
orientation programme - ‘Ethics and Teaching Practices - Need for a Revolutionary
Pedagogy’ said that antagonism, conflict and controversies were integral part of any
discourse, but being teachers, academicians and intellectuals, it becomes necessary
for us to find the context of issues not only by going back into the received texts
but by actually participating in the resistance. Apathy of consensus was one of the
greatest mistakes that teachers could commit, he said.
