Tech 4Us - Computer club of KHMS – World is largely revolving around the click of the mouse. The most far reaching change that is occurring is the rapid growth of information as fact supercedes fact and analysis counter analysis. The new information age requires an educated workforce and the computers are contributing to the educational process today. In the past few years, India has witnessed a "COMPUTER FEVER". The use of computers has expanded so rapidly that their presence can no longer be ignored. Exploring information technology has thus become the chief determinant of the progress of nation, communities and individuals. Since the computer is the engine driving our information society, students require an understanding of this tool and its uses to help them to adapt to the world of accelerating change and to face challenges and competition.

The Shiksharthi Project – The Shiksharthi Project of our school has shown very encouraging results. Ours is a totally exam oriented system where we do not get enough time to give our low achievers the type of attention and practice that they require. We choose 2 to 5 of the weakest students in a section of class VII & VIII. Then we invite volunteers from the same class to help each of these students with the various subjects. Besides helping weak students in studies the qualities of good citizenship, learning to live in cooperation with others are also inculcated through this project. The success so for is very encouraging. It was found that there were simply no failures in many sections. Most of the weak students are getting marks between 40% - 50%. As teachers, we continue to feel that if given little encouragement, our students can do much more and there is lot of willingness among our seniors students who can be roped in to help weak students and make this project successful.

• Once these innovations are institutionalized, quality in education will make visible and sustainable impact.
• When a teacher adds that special ingredient called new innovation in her teaching, there is bound to be quality in her teaching.
