train 2 transform Workshops are a suite of enhanced and custom tailored single day teacher training workshops that have been introduced as a part of OUP’s endeavor to give a fillip to Continuous Professional Development for teachers in India. The need for exploring and addressing emergent areas in teacher development stems from a perceived need for identifying areas for knowledge transfer and proficiency building by providing the necessary support to teachers. Despite the widespread practice of face-to-face teacher training workshops and the proliferation of digitized training packages offered by various agencies, OUP expects this brand of specialized knowledge transference to greatly benefit teachers looking for professional growth. The various globally trending topics addressed by these premium workshops include Flipped Classroom Strategies, Interaction Management in Classrooms, Using Technology in the Classroom to Hear the Learners, We are the World: Sustainable Development Goals, Art of Learning: Designing Teaching Aids, Story-telling Activities, and many more.



The workshop on using technology in the classrooms was conducted by Mala Palani, who trained teachers to use different technology tools to enable learners maximise their learning and make their learning visible. She explained what it means to hear our learners, use electronic tools to flip classrooms, and finally, design a classroom that includes learner’s voices.



Mala Palani is a qualified Oxford Teachers’ Academy trainer. Learning and sharing ideas for improving English language learning is a passion for her. She works closely with the faculty from the University of Birmingham’s reputed College of Education to plan and deliver teaching programmes to ICSE, CBSE, IB and state board schools across the country.
