Indian society needs vocational up gradation with healthy competition, cooperation and moral value of the pupils. So, it is not the question about method of the educational process but also mode of interaction to fulfil that aim through the proper guidance. This new teaching-learning strategy follows the principles of ‘learning by doing’ with necessary theoretical content knowledge amalgamated with digital media as well as traditional classroom interactions.
