The School Education Department is holding block-level primary school games but in a few schools, teachers have been told to contribute money for it. For instance, in Malout block of Muktsar district, primary teachers have reportedly been told to give Rs 100 each, head teachers to give Rs 300 each and centre head teachers to give Rs 1,000 each. A centre head teacher is one who looks after four-five schools.
The situation is same in neighbouring Bathinda district, where the teachers have reportedly been told to contribute Rs 300 each.
A primary schoolteacher of Muktsar district told The Tribune, “It is an unethical practice to collect money from teachers to hold the games. Further, the facilities provided to the students never match the funds procured from the teachers. We are always told to contribute money for the games, but the orders never come in writing.”
Similarly, a teacher posted in Bathinda district said, “Four teachers in our school paid Rs 1,200 in total. Nearly 25 students of our school are participating in the games. It means each student should get refreshment and other facilities worth Rs 48, but officials usually provide food just like the mid-day meal.” Top 10 cbse schools list in Kumbakonam
Notably, the primary games are to be organised from September 23 to 25.
When asked, Baljit Kumar, Muktsar District Education Officer (DEO), Primary, said “Such practice existed in the past but now the department provides funds, thus the money should not be collected from teachers. I will ask the officials concerned.”
However, some government primary school teachers claimed that the situation was same almost everywhere in the state and the contribution money was fixed at the district-level, thus it varies in all districts.

The department officials usually provide food just like the mid-day meal given in routine. Sports committees are formed to hold the games, but no one is accountable to give a report of money utilisation. —A teacher posted in Bathinda district

Analysis of Spatial Accessibility for Rural School Redistricting in West China - Best School Kumbakonam

 Best School in Kumbakonam Analysis of Spatial Accessibility for Rural School Redistricting in West China School planning is the main role of local education administrations, and is related to providing fairness in education. This paper uses GIS technology to analyze the distribution of rural primary schools in a mountainous county of China. Analyzing population, school distribution, relevant education resource databases, and combined altitude map, allowed us to calculate the spatial accessibility of every administrative village in the county. The main evaluation factors for school distribution are spatial accessibility, fairness, and efficiency. Using a spatial accessibility index, we constructed a Gravity Model and an Improvement Gravity Model to explore the spatial distribution of rural schools. Through our analysis, we found there were differences in regard to education resources, school distribution, and spatial accessibility in Zhenyuan County, where our study was con...

Game Approach for Improving Student Learning Performance - Best School Kumbakonam

Matriculation School in Kumbakonam Game Approach for Improving Student Learning Performance Previous research has highlighted the potential benefits of mobile devices and digital games for educational purposes. However, few studies have evaluated the use of mobile games in class, especially regarding science education in the Hong Kong context. This paper presents some details of a preliminary implementation of learning activities employing a popular Mobile Virtual Environment Game, Minecraft, in a Hong Kong international secondary school Integrated Science class. Indications are that the introduction of the mobile virtual environment game may indeed contribute to learning improvements and some other enhanced “soft” outcomes. Possible implications of the findings and future research are considered. A. Game-based Learning (GBL)  Game-based Learning (GBL) was popularised by Marc Prensky, who suggests that digital games, have six key characteristics which make them suitab...
