Biology beyond classroom

Learning is inevitable everyday activities throughout one’s life. There’s no place on planet where learning is impossible. Learning takes place everywhere, in anyway, anyhow and in any form. By knowing these facts, I consider learning takes place even in doing bad proceedings that happens to one’s life. I believed learning is everyday outfits, which makes one’s life to precede further otherwise, world would modestly come to an end with tiny thoughts. 

A biology subject teaches about plants and animal’s life, its functions in the society and its reality. So, for the hunt of more practical knowledge on raring of Mithuen (hybrid animal, similar to cattle), class twelve bio-science students, subject teacher along with few teachers headed to a place called Dungbi a best known place for rearing of Mithuen. 

Mithuens in active hours
After reaching to the place we were warmly received by one of the person in-charge. Firstly, we introduced each other and stated about our purpose of visiting to the place. He was happy then. He took us to the place where they used to keep the Mithuen. He showed us the area where they let Mithuen to graze. All the students seemed very enthusiastic about knowing more on practical rearing of the animal. So, students themselves formed different groups and they started asking questions on – how is the rearing of the animals in the farm, what are the varieties of fodders needed, grazing timings, breeding seasons, area needed for the grazing, the nature of the animals, weather required and the kinds of common diseases. 

In a nutshell, there are different 
subjects learning at school. Some subjects requires more of practical ideas for learning well. Since, part of learning is not only knowing about the written facts from the book but beyond. Thus, all students felt happy about their field trips to Mithuen farm. Moreover, they got to know many useful information on practical rearing of the animal in their life.

  1. Sancha sir, that way learning is more practical. That way understanding is much better off. This I feel is a real learning pedagogy, theory and practice going hand-in-hand.

The Story of Malika Chand.

There lived a schoolteacher named Malika Chand. She loved teaching and treated her students as she would, her own children. Nurturing their potential with great kindness. Her perennial motto was, 'Your,  I can is more important than your,  IQ .' She was known throughout her community as a person who lived to give. Who selflessly served anyone in need? Sadly, her beloved school, which had stood as a silent witness to the delightful progress of generations of children, succumbed to the flames of a fire set by an arsonist one night. All those in the community felt this great loss. But as time passed by, their anger gave way to apathy and they resigned themselves to the fact that their children would be without a school. "What about Malika?"   "She was different, an eternal optimist if there ever was one. Unlike everyone around her, she perceived opportunity in what had happened. She told all the parents that every setback offers an equivalent benefit ...

Golden Words Of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck

King Jigme Singye Wangchuck "...in particular, speaking for myself; my sorrow in having lost my own father is indeed very great.

My Concept Of Central School

Everyone felt happy in the beginning with the inception of central school idea and few happy moment to those who've been profited. Whereas, it was not so pleasing for some – students, teachers and parents. My concept of central school is different. Different in the sense, I want it to be a  'MODEL SCHOOL' . Why can't we merge the same idea into a 'Model School' with better policies, correct curriculum, best teachers and facilities in places? Here I'm not to aver among students but to put a sense of competition and the values of education. According to our present population and the school going child ratio it is not necessary to earn many central school in a dzongkhag. Let us plan for less, better and reliable school for sustainable Bhutan. How far shall we wait for  'DONATION'  after  'DONATION'  just to run our system of education or any other offices or are we just for donor driven system to be in place?  What if...
