“Problems are a sign of life with skills as tools to turn them upside down. Success is an outcome of efficacious use of these tools to solve the jigsaw puzzles of life."

"Problem-solving skills will play an important part in preparing learners and leaders for their future rather than the past. Many schools say it seems harder than ever to provide what young people need because what they need is less certain. However, when we talk about the need for the 4Cs, problem solving is an essential common ingredient that we cannot ignore."

“According to me, problem solving skills are empowering every individual and bringing out their potentials in order. It also makes them feel confident and independent to tackle problems and solving challenges on their own. I feel HCL Jigsaw is giving scope to the students to think critically in order to analyze the problems as well to find a probable solution for that. It is helping them to enhance their learning. ”

"Change is the recurring phenomenon of today's times and change always results in uncertainty. In this scenario, everyone has to build their problem solving skills to face the challenges of the modern world to resolve the issues that change and uncertainty present. The focus on imparting problem solving skills in children is therefore of paramount importance for them to be ready to face the challenges that await them as they step into the real world."

Investment in education and training students for 21st-century skills is a fundamental need for the growth and development of the country and self. The role of the teacher has changed to facilitator and their role is shifted from instructing students to helping students become constructive learners where change is constant and learning never stops. HCL JIGSAW has given schools with different curriculums across India , a trusted platform to test their students on the national level. I am sure it will help young bright minds recognize their true potential at the right age!
