 TESCOM DEEPENS TEACHERS' KNOWLEDGE OF CREATING, MAINTAINING TECHNOLOGY-INFUSED CLASSROOM 

The Chairman, Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM), Mrs. Victoria Mopelola Peregrino has implored teachers to be ready to invest in themselves in the ever-changing technological system if they must remain relevant in the new world order.

She gave the advice in her remarks at the opening ceremony of a two-day workshop organised by the Commission for Teachers on GLs 15-17 drawn from all the education districts in the State.

She noted that the teaching world has reached a great milestone that has never been achieved in history with the advent of technological innovations and the emergence of digital platforms. 

Peregrino further disclosed that the two-day workshop was carefully designed, bearing in mind that the 21st-century teaching methodology has been greatly characterised by constant changes and disruption of the old order.

The Chairman reiterated the commitments of the State Government to continually train and retrain teachers across all levels to build their capacity to meet the 21st-century educational challenges.

Welcoming participants to the workshop, the Permanent Secretary of the Commission, represented by the Director of Teachers Education and Capacity Development, Mrs. Aloba Abidemi, thanked the State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for his continued support to the education family, especially TESCOM.

Aloba implored participants to maximise the opportunities inherent in the two-day workshop, which was designed to deepen their knowledge of technology and bring about overall improvements in transforming the students as well as building public confidence in the teachers.

The opening ceremony of the workshop had in attendance board members of the Commission, Dr. Segun Agbaje representing District III and Mrs. Abimbola Adeola Idowu, representing District IV. They both advised participants to be active, make it a participatory workshop and get the best of the opportunity to improve their performances in their various classrooms.

The theme of the two-day workshop, held at the Teaching Service Staff Development Center, Owutu, Ikorodu, is "Creating and Maintaining A Technology-Infused Classroom for Advanced Level Teacher GLs 15-17".
