What Participants Say

We were given an activity to click 5 photos and use them to explain a concept from our subject — it struck me that assets and investment can be taught through photos of the natural environment.

Takeaway of my training is to bring interdisciplinary approach to each cyber security awareness in cyber psychology.

On coming to this program, I realised that art may have limitations, but ideas go beyond limits.

As a teacher, we learned about a new pedagogy and learning theory. It has given us the confidence to implement constructivism.

On coming to this programme, the first thing I realised is the responsibility of the teacher to connect with students and develop their abilities.

After going back, I will definitely be able to give not only interdisciplinary, but also multidisciplinary exposure to my students.

This programme exposed us to different leadership styles and gave understanding of various dimensions in gender along with multidisciplinary approach.

In this workshop, we learnt teaching techniques that make learning comfortable for students.
