Chennai: Harappa Education has launched the second phase of its digital initiative Habit Heroes to celebrate Teachers’ Day.
Through this initiative, Harappa will recognise and honour pioneering educators who have embraced change and made a spirited shift to teaching online.
In the first phase of Habit Heroes, Harappa honoured 10 Habit Heroes for their courage, collaboration and initiatives of civic engagement, in the wake of the lockdown through March to May in India.
Following the success of the inaugural edition, the second phase puts the spotlight on teachers who have had to learn to navigate the daunting challenge of moving to a new way of being—teaching and supporting their students online, said a press note.
Shreyasi Singh, founder and CEO, Harappa Education said, “This Teachers’ Day is even more special, given how much teachers have had to take on. The intensity with which they have had to adapt and embrace change has awed and humbled us. With this initiative, we want to thank teachers across the country for their contribution to our lives, today and always.”
If you know a teacher who’s embraced online with gusto or want to thank a teacher who has supported their students through this difficult time, nominations are open until Sunday, 30 September. To apply visit: https://harappa.education/habit-heroes
