The workshops are organized to develop the psychomotor aspects of the learner regarding the practices of new innovations in the area of education. Participants are expected to do some practical work to produce instructional teaching and testing material.Creating a workshop for teachers can be a valuable opportunity to enhance their skills, share knowledge, and foster a collaborative learning environment.

peace; and time is always right to do what is right.
The sessions were interactive and gave everyone a chance to share their perspective,

discussion. Every participant could be seen actively engaged and pondering over
his/her idea of ethics & integrity.
Real life situations were enacted, different games were played both in groups and
individually along with presentations and discussions on related topics, bringing home
the fact that it’s of utmost importance to uphold ethics and integrity in all walks of life
and more so in the field of academics if we want to create a safe, secure, prosperous,
balanced and happy society.
In a nutshell, the workshop succeeded in reaffirming the teachers of their
responsibilities not just to their management but to the future generations and the
