The Excellence in Blended Education
National Public School, ITPL has been honored with the Excellence in Blended Education Approach award by The Economic Times EducationTech EDU India Awards, recognizing its commitment to innovative and holistic learning.
In today’s tech savvy world Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) may not be the first thing that comes to mind.
By recognising the fact that digital learning and SEL are deeply intertwined, it makes it essential to strike a balance between the two.
To shed light on the intersection of digital learning and socio-emotional growth, Dr. Chaitra Harsha, CEO of NPS ITPL, participated as a panel member at the event, sharing her insights on balancing technology with socio emotional growth and development. She emphasized the importance of SEL as a foundation for responsible digital learning, highlighting innovative ways to balance the two while fostering critical thinking, communication, and resilience—key skills for navigating an evolving digital landscape.
She also stressed the role of educators, parents, and policymakers in embedding SEL into education through blended learning, digital detox strategies, and experiential learning. Her perspective reinforced the need for a balanced digital ecosystem that nurtures both academic excellence and student well-being.
