Representing his institution, he acknowledged the jury&#8217;s recognition of the school&#8217;s continued contribution to education and appreciated the organisers for creating a platform that celebrates educational excellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sharing his message for fellow educators, Mr. Dhivyanathan highlighted the growing influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on today&#8217;s generation, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic. He emphasised that schools must adapt to technological advancements without losing sight of the value of traditional teaching methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe should not divert ourselves from traditional teaching. At the same time, we must be able to adapt to modern technology.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His perspective underscores the importance of a balanced approach to educational transformation. While AI and digital tools can enhance learning experiences, educators must integrate these innovations thoughtfully, preserving established teaching practices while preparing students for an increasingly technology-driven world.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"sp-easy-accordion-block sp-eab-regular-accordion alignwide\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"sp-eab-wrapper sp-eab-vertical-accordion sp-eab-400f610ea1ff\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='sp-eab-accordion sp-eab-mode-vertical sp-eab-vertical-two sp-d-flex' data-accordion-settings=\"{&quot;mode&quot;:&quot;vertical&quot;,&quot;activeEvent&quot;:&quot;click&quot;,&quot;defaultAccordionOpen&quot;:&quot;first-item&quot;,&quot;selectedItemOpen&quot;:0,&quot;openMultiItemAtaTime&quot;:false,&quot;scrollToTopOnLoad&quot;:false,&quot;scrollToTopOnClick&quot;:false,&quot;accordionItemToUrl&quot;:false,&quot;animationEffect&quot;:false,&quot;applyAccessibility&quot;:true}\">\n        \t    \t\n\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tid =\"sp-eab-item-886806bab123\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"sp-eab-accordion-item eab-item-0ea1ff\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sp-eab-accordion-item-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class='sp-eab-accordion-heading sp-d-flex sp-align-center eab-heading-0ea1ff'\n\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<span class='sp-eab-accordion-header-wrapper sp-d-flex sp-align-center eab-icon-position-end'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='sp-eab-accordion-header-start sp-d-flex sp-justify-left sp-align-center'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='sp-eab-title-subtitle-wrapper sp-d-flex'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='sp-eab-accordion-title-wrapper sp-d-flex sp-align-center'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='sp-eab-accordion-title-text'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t1.
