T oday 30th April, 10th day of the lunar month is a holy and an auspicious day and as today is observed as the Parinirvana anniversary of Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyel  all over Bhutan. The whole country commemorates this day by paying homage to Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgyal. Several religious rituals are performed in the temples in his honor. This day is spent by offering special prayers and lighting butter lamps by enthusiasts. Devotees also visit sacred sites on this day. Funerary services are also held in many places for this commemoration. Since this day is a national holiday in Bhutan, school, business and working people get a day off on this day.

  Reflection on the article “Integration of ICT in Bhutanese Schools - Common Obstacles and the Way Forward” Information and Communication Technology is considered as an important tool for the development of modern education in the 21st century.

Critical Analysis on Different Learning Styles and Preferences On 24 th  February, 2023, we had a session on “ Different styles and preferences ” which was subsequently interlinked with “ How ICT can enhance VAK? ”. In educational contexts, style and preference among learners may be categorized into six distinct types:  Auditory, Visual, Kinesthetics, Guided, Informal , and  Independent .  Learning style is how a person naturally learns. It was first proposed in the 1970s and has had a significant impact on the field of education.

For example, a visual learner needs to see the project, while auditory learners prefer to hear about it. Kinesthetic learners prefer learning through physical activity rather than passive listening or watching. For instance, when learning about wind energy, a visual learner may

It incorporates meditation, breathing exercises, and stretches to allow stress reduction, relaxation, and rejuvenation. After graduating from twelfth grade, I felt burnt out from poor mental health where I often experienced anxiety and panic attacks. I also went through a period of torturous Bulimia where people with this eating disorder may secretly binge (eating large amounts of food with a loss of control over the eating) and then purge, trying to get rid of the extra calories in an unhealthy way. Consequently, my weight changed from time to time, and this affected my physical health as well. Nonetheless, I took the courage to come out and help myself before it was too late. I sought help from my family and internet where I discovered yoga as a solution to my problem. I started downloading various yoga lessons for beginners and begun my journey to healing. I found comfort in

As said,  “Humans spend years eating, sleeping, working, and worrying about those things, but it is their free time that is most important. If spent well it can render them into great people, if squandered, it cannot , ”  w e all want to be productive and make the most out of the time that we have every day. However, we tend to procrastinate things too often or focus too much on making every hour productive can be counterproductive, in fact, leading to lower performance, fatigue, and eventually burnout. We need to rest and find effective everyday activities which supports our health, well-being, and a high level of performance. During my vacation, I had lots of spare time at home. I had nothing to do other than sleeping and eating. For much time to waste, I thought of spending it on some online learning platform and as a teacher-to-be, it is must that we never stop learning. Fortunately, I had the perfect opportunity to participate in  Virtual Sensitization Workshop  on Adolescent Se
