Our XII Computer Science students had a blast while revising Exception Handling – a crucial aspect of File Handling in programming. But this wasn’t your typical boring revision class, it turned into a lively game arena where learning met fun head-on!The students paired up and created some super cool and quirky team names to keep their real identities a secret. This genius move, orchestrated by Ms. Seema Mongia, meant no one felt any peer pressure. Instead, they could dive into the subject, make mistakes, and learn without any stress.We focused on mastering the concepts rather than just scoring points. If anyone got a question wrong, they had the chance to attempt it again. This way, everyone had the opportunity to truly grasp the material and reinforce their understanding. The goal was clear – knowledge over numbers! We kept competition and scores out of the equation to ensure that every student walked away confident in their understanding of Exception Handling. This approach not only made revision exciting but also ensured that the concepts were well learned by all. Who knew that turning classrooms into game arenas could make such a difference?
