2)CHOICE AND FLEXIBILITY.

Students should have the freedom to choose their own topic. Doing this, their interest increases. They get a motivation and it creates sense of autonomy over their learning.

3) PERSONALIZED LEARNING PLANS.

Students have to set clear goals on what they are learning. It is a challenge for them during the pandemic. They will have the fire to finish everything on that day itself.

4)SELF ASSESMENT TESTS.

Students have to write tests regularly. By doing this, they can check where they went wrong and write that again for improvement. This can improve self-regular skills and self-awareness skills. 

5)DEBATES.

8)USE JOURNALS. 

Students have to write what they have learnt in that particular day in a journal book. This makes their learning better.
