To strengthen the integration of technology in education and enrich classroom experiences, Don Bosco High School & Jr. College, Naigaon (E) organized a comprehensive training session on Artificial Intelligence (AI) for teachers on 14th June 2025, with around 55 teachers attending the session.
Conducted by Dr. Reuben Buthello, an avid Engineer, Entrepreneur and Professor, the session aimed at empowering educators with AI-powered tools and strategies to create impactful lesson plans and to make teaching-learning more engaging, efficient, and learner-centric. Teachers gained hands-on experience with AI platforms that support educational content creation, personalized learning, and smart assessments.
The training covered:
- Understanding AI in Education
- Using AI for Designing Lesson Plans
- Creating Student-Centered Activities
- Exploring Tools for Interactive and Visual Learning
- Ethical Use of AI in the Classroom
The speaker effectively combined the concept of Bloom’s Taxonomy with lesson planning and curriculum design, demonstrating how educators can use the six levels of cognitive learning — Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analysing, Evaluating, and Creating — to frame clear objectives, design purposeful activities, and assess student learning more effectively.
The session was highly interactive, with teachers exploring how AI can complement their teaching styles and save valuable time while ensuring quality outcomes. Through live demonstrations and guided activities, participants saw how AI could bring creativity, clarity, and efficiency to their everyday planning and classroom delivery. The event not only sparked new perspectives on teaching with technology but also reinforced the school’s commitment to continuous professional development and 21st-century learning goals.
Speaking on the occasion, the Principal remarked, “We must prepare our teachers for the future to prepare our students for theirs.” He emphasized the importance of continuous professional development and the role of emerging technologies like AI in shaping future-ready classrooms. The success of the session marked a significant step forward in achieving that vision.
