SUMMER SESSION - 2011

SHIKSHA

- LEARNING and TEACHING REDEFINED

PREAMBLE for the HOLIDAY PROGRAM

When there are many problems... Under Paid, Over Worked, Disinterested Students, Uncaring Parents, Thankless Society, Crumbling Buildings, Disintegrating Class rooms, Unavailable aids, not required policy directions .. TEACHERS are limited by their REPRODUCTIVE Teaching.

Students are Directed by their Parents and or LIFE THRILLS … - how to be famous (in the line of TV Shows / reality Shows / Modeling etc.) - Which course is having more demand – Where to get and what job to be selected – Who has to be the partner - PEER GROUP makes lot in their LIFE styles and setting directions in LIFE.

Many elders are UNHAPPY as they are not in their choice of Profession – Passion couldn’t be identified – Life is boring – Job is monotonous – We make money still or I am not able to earn much – Wanted to do something for the Society that is what gives satisfaction but don’t know where and how to start … Now is OLD and have family around, do not know what to do?

REALIZE SELF EARLY

Because we are born human and self improvement is the best thing human beings do. Quality of Humans ‘Creativity’ needs to be brought to light. LIFE is to be driven BUT make it SIMPLER, NATURAL – Grow like a TREE and Fall like a RIVER..

Get maximum information – make learning a practice – find out what is the best field I can be creative and what I can teach.

Dear Sir,

Thank you very much for your mail. I shall definitely see the blogs, a few I had already done before I got this mail. I loved them. You are a wonderful human being who is going forward by clearing Karma beautifully well. God shall always be with and bless all those who follow Him and are in surrender to Him. I always appreciate and love such personalities. I would love to do all that I can for making this summer session a unique one too.

Dear Friends

Thanks a lot for the overwhelming response to the idea of compiling details of Summer Camps in different Cities, and then to forward to the Parents / Students to enable the children to properly utilise their vacation time.

We have received details about the summer camps being conducted by many people; but, we sincerely wish to have special discounts/packages for MFG members.

Ms. Leenaji is compiling the details received and we shall be in a position to circulate it next week.

However, one of the messages received (as appended below) from Dr. TP Sasikumar seems to be very interesting. Education is one of the most important factor in our life and you can be the teacher (even a graduate can be a good teacher!) according to Dr. Sasikumar. This is really a good idea. Those who are interested may please contact him directly, so that they will help /support you even conducting asummer camp on your own, in your city.

Shall come back with further details of other summer camps soon.

We express our sincere thanks to all who have forwarded the details to us and also to the parents who have thanked us for this initiative.

Yours Loving
