An Ideal classroom with latest technology:
Class rooms are well equipped with latest and effective teaching aids. They are provided with:
Internet connected systems for online reference
LCD projectors
Library with books for all competitive exams Air conditioners – Not for luxury, but to increase the efficiency of the students while working (Only in A.C Campuses)
Integrated syllabus:
We have an integrated syllabus which is SSC + CBSE + ICSE.
We cover the syllabus in a unique way by integrating the concepts from all the 3 syllabi in a logical order without repetition.
For every new chapter, we teach the basics first and then we move forward with the logical sequence of SSC, CBSE and ICSE concepts.
A student is also taught to do research in the chapters by covering linked topics of future classes. A student will be able to understand the concepts present in the future classes as he is very strong with his basics and will certainly enjoy the logical sequence of the chapter ahead.
Research oriented teaching:
It is done in the following stages:
Stage-1: A micro level planning for teaching a particular topic is done by identifying
The prerequisites (basics and fundamentals of the topic)
The concepts to be mastered
The linked sub-topics
Stage-2: The teaching of the prerequisites, main concepts and the linked sub-topics is done from the prescribed text books with more illustrations and examples.
Stage-3: The objective of mastering the concepts is achieved by making the students to solve problems on each concept from level-1 to level-5 which include the questions from previous competitive exams and various other international reference books.
Stage-4: At the end of the topic, students are made to solve the cumulative assignments which consists of problems based on multiple concepts.
Teacher : Students ratio:
According to the International Educational Experts, for the effective teaching, the Teacher–Student ratio should be 1:15.
At Narayana, our total school strength is 250 with maximum class strength of 50. And at any point of time there would be 3 teachers attending to students needs, which takes the teacher student ratio to 1 : 15. To top this all, our teachers students ratio of the entire school is 1 : 10.
1 + 2 system:
For Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry every main faculty has a team of two associate faculties. Main faculty with the help of his two associate faculty will individually nurture the students. They build a strong foundation of these subjects for their bright competitive future.
In every class, the students are divided into five sub groups namely E1, E2, E3, E4 and E5 based on their performance in the series of tests conducted on fundamentals in the beginning of academic year. Each sub group is headed by the respective subject associate faculty who will microscopically cater the academic needs of the students by following the idea of step up and step down.
Academic workshop:
Our success formula is 1 + 1 system of academics i.e., every teaching period is followed by working period i.e., academic workshop. During workshop, the child will apply the learned concepts to solve level-1 to level-5 questions or problems. The difficult problems will be solved with the help of associates. In this way, the cycle of learning gets completed within the class itself.
Such cycle is not completed in other systems. They are left with incomplete circle, hence are subjected to stress and failure.
As we are able to follow 1 + 1 System, the child is confident and is scoring at his best.
Integration of Audio-visual aids:
Integration of audiovisual teaching with the conventional teaching is an important feature of Narayana Teaching system.
Laboratories:
At e-techno schools, lab activities are integrated in the day to day teaching schedule. This helps the child to get complete education by practical way of applying concepts.
Global Update:
Students are made to browse various web sites on the chapter taught to understand the latest innovations and developments in science and technology at global level.
CDF (Concepts, Definitions and Formulae) program:
On every Saturday, an half an hour test on Concepts, Definitions and Formulae (CDF) in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry is conducted as part of CDF program. This program ensures mastery of fundamentals, which ensures a better participation of students in the teaching hours, which in turn, paves the path for their success in competitive exams.
Mind space increasing program:
Special orientation on
Speed Mathematics (Vedic Mathematics)
Mathematics Olympiad
Mental Ability (for NTSE)
In the international educational circles, activity based learning is gearing up. Activity based learning is nothing but education through entertainment.
As an initiative in this direction, e-techno programme is also equipped with various activities conducted every week in MPC to fine tune the concepts. Those activities are:
Quiz, Group discussion, Mind mapping, Quiz for applying thought, Data sufficiency, Quiz for mental ability, Quiz for logical ability and Folding and Unfolding of concepts. These activities ensure development of conceptual skills and personal competencies.
Projects:
Projects play a very important role as they inculcate scientific temper, competitive spirit and zeal to learn and excel among the students.
Projects develop coordination ability and team spirit in work. They check their presentation skills too. They are conducted every second and fourth Saturdays in a month. After completing a project presentation, a student has to clear the VIVA.
Video conference:
Students at different branches across the state compete through video conference for the weekly activities. This gives them exposure and a different learning experience.
Weekly assessment:
A common test for all the students from different branches will be conducted on every Monday. A student is given local rank (rank in his individual branch) and a state rank. This assessment gives an opportunity for the child to understand his position and thereby increases the scope for further improvement.
Error's list:
An error's list (gives a list of error's made by the student in the test) is given to every student and a period is allotted for the practice of error's made. Questions of different levels are framed on the model of error's made by the students for their practice.
Scientific analysis:
The students performance in the weekly test is microscopically analysed. Subject wise and test to test comparison is done to individually counsel and to motivate the students. The counseling team includes Principal, Main Teachers, Academic vice-principal and the respective subject associate faculties.
Relaxation techniques:
Students are trained to master the relaxation techniques like Yoga and Meditation. Monthly few sessions are allotted for every class.
Knowledge pool:
A student of e-techno school will receive the following material:
International class basic books covering the basics of lower classes integrating SSC, CBSE and ICSE syllabi. Usually the concepts of the previous class are the fundamentals of the existing class. Hence to achieve perfection in the existing academic year, the concepts of the previous class are presented to the students in:
Five volumes called Ramanujan Series, Einstein Series and Curie Series.
Before the beginning of the curriculum, class wise instruction of these basics is done.
CDF (Concepts, Definitions and Formulae) books.
Microschedules of all the subjects separately (every month).
Worksheets booklet for the month (will comprise day wise
worksheets with synopsis and illustrations with detailed solutions).
Activities question papers with solutions (weekly).
Weekly test papers with solutions.
Projects and project VIVA questions with solutions (every fort night).
Mental ability, speed maths and quantitative aptitude modules (weekly).
Success package for olympiads (during training sessions).
Grand tests package (series of test papers conducted at the end of the year).
Simple holiday package booklets (for review of subject in the holidays).
Monthly news letter (creative contributions from students of e-techno).
Our success formula is 1 + 1 system of academics i.e., every teaching period is followed by working period i.e., academic workshop. During workshop, the child will apply the learned concepts to solve level-1 to level-5 questions or problems. The difficult problems will be solved with the help of associates. In this way, the cycle of learning gets completed within the class itself.
Such cycle is not completed in other systems. They are left with incomplete circle, hence are subjected to stress and failure.
