A record is a collection of fields possibly of different data types, typically in a fixed number and sequence or else a thing constituting a piece of evidence about the past, especially an account kept in writing or some other permanent form.
Records are important to keep as with the help of these we can easily find out what all things were done in the past or else what are things going to happen in the future.
Being a teacher it is very important for us to learn what are the types of records kept, how they are kept, and the importance of each and every record. In order to teach this, our college Gitarattan institute of advanced studies and training held an extension lecture on the topic of school records and their importance.
This extension lecture was taken by Mr. Rajesh Kumar sir, post graduate in English with 25 years of experience, via google meet at 10:30am. He was formally invited by the member of our group Kirti Garg. The extension lecture started with what the record means. Today he taught us about the different type of records which are kept in school such as attendance register, report card record, admission register, material record, teacher's attendance register, school cash book, fees register, examination register, etc
Not only he told us about the different types of records kept in school. He also informed us about the important points which we should keep in our mind while keeping those records such as when should a student be marked as absent or on leave, and the blank should not be left vacant. We should always mark the absence with a red pen. There should be a different attendance for after the lunch break as students sometimes go home after the lunch due to some issue.
Later on the extension lecture ended on with the discussion regarding records and their and the pupil teacher's view regarding this and with the formal vote of thanks given by Kirti Garg .
