Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is being widely recognized to be the power that will fuel the future global digital economy. CBSE is now announcing AI as a multi-disciplinary integrated pedagogical approach to further enhance teaching and learning across classes 6 to 12. There is dire need for the present generation of young students to be exposed and empowered enough to understand and practice AI competencies in order to remain relevant to the times they live in.
Artificial Intelligence will be at the heart of new IT developments in areas like automation, DevOps platforms, the Internet Chabot, and robotics. Careers in Artificial Intelligence is a fast-paced and challenging field that is making visible inroads into our everyday life.
Hence, it is essential that students of today should study this domain to understand and later be able to expand this knowledge in their own interest and in the interest of humanity.

Counselling Services

Kolasaraswathi believes that a child is unique, especially those with special requirements. This is the very reason special educators and counsellors, have been brought in, who help students traverse their life path in spite of the hurdles they face and emerge as stronger individuals. This process starts with teachers identifying student(s) with such special needs.

The students are assessed individually for any specific learning disability and behavioural challenges. Some of the prescribed tests like S L D Test ,Bender Gestalt Test, Draw a man test,etc. These help assess the area in which the student requires help or is struggling. Then tailor made lesson plans for such children to enhance their academic performance are formulated on a case on case basis. Scribing for such children are also done.
