CHANDIGARH — The children will notice the difference first. That was the unspoken understanding in the room at Mount Carmel School last week, where teachers sat through a workshop on artificial intelligence and digital innovation. The session, a CBSE capacity building program, was titled “Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation in Education.” It was organized in collaboration with Orange Publications.
Janhvi Kohli led it. She is a certified professional in generative AI and cyber security.
That matters because the tools she brought into that room are the same ones reshaping workplaces, classrooms, and how young people learn to think. The stakes here are concrete. Teachers who cannot use these tools will struggle to hold the attention of students who already do.
Children born into a world of instant answers and adaptive software need instruction that meets them there, not instruction that pretends the internet does not exist. The workshop was interactive.
That was by design. No one sat through a lecture. Instead, teachers worked through practical applications — how to integrate AI into daily lessons, how to build learner-centered approaches, how to build digital confidence.
The goal was not abstract. It was about making teaching more engaging and more effective. The message: technology can enhance both teaching and learning in real time.
Principal Dr Parveena John Singh spoke to the significance of such professional development initiatives. Her point was clear.
Teachers need this training. Not next year. Now.
What is at risk is straightforward. Schools that fail to adapt risk irrelevance.
Not immediately. But the gap between what students experience in the classroom and what they experience outside it is already wide. AI tools are not a future possibility.
They are a present reality. Students use them. The question is whether their teachers will understand those tools well enough to guide that use, correct it, and push it further.
The workshop did not pretend to solve that problem in a single session. It aimed to show what is possible when AI meets human creativity in a classroom.
Teachers left with a sense of that possibility. Not just theory. Practical insight.
For families, the shift is real. Their children will experience school differently if teachers apply what they learned.
Lessons can become more adaptive. Feedback can come faster. Instruction can meet individual needs more precisely.
That is the promise. The workshop was a step toward delivering on it. Kohli shared practical insights on how artificial intelligence, digital tools, and technology integration can reshape education.
The session encouraged teachers to explore creative teaching methodologies aligned with a rapidly changing landscape. That landscape is not waiting.
It is shifting daily. The teachers who filled that room became students again. They learned.
The question now is what happens when they walk back into their own classrooms. Whether the lessons stick.
Whether the tools get used. Whether the children benefit. That is the real test.
The workshop was the start, not the finish.
