Building the learning future my kids and the world should have

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

The greatest travesty of human potential is locking up 14 - 22 YO during their peak cognitive years in a classroom.

Making them learn through the slowest possible route(lecture) when they should be building, learning from actual work and developing agency.

@throwaway5397 How is the oped related to the some nonsense policy the govt has? Who shifted the goalpost and why? Someone without an agenda will fight the government not the developer and least of all someone related to him.

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

@throwaway5397 What would be the agenda of an account with no followers and 9 posts?

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

It is very hard to compare their cost and service to those of a typical hospital.

For example, the rooms are large enough for both the mother and the attendant to move around comfortably. They include a dedicated feeding chair, a pantry, and even a washroom designed around the practical needs of a recovering mother. How do you put a price on that?

The midwives come by as often as needed. After delivery, it is common for a midwife to walk into the room as soon as the baby starts crying, help soothe the baby, and support feeding. They understand that the attendant has often been caring for the mother all day and may be exhausted.

You cannot really put a price on that level of care. I say this as a father who experienced it firsthand. And almost every mother you speak to will hold the hospital in the same regard.

They also run a support group that remains active long after delivery. Mothers continue helping one another even though the only thing connecting them is that they all gave birth at Aastrika around the same time.

@throwaway5397 Would you also blame the knife manufacturer for a thief misusing it ?

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

Nothing. But the point is that your anger is misdirected.

She isn't a medical doctor, yet she has done more than most to raise the standard of maternity care in India. Speak to the mothers who have been through Aastrika if you want to understand the impact.

They also run a foundation that trains nurses to become midwives, helping build the capacity that India's maternal care system urgently needs.

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

@Anon182696 @JanhaviNilekani @ShamikaRavi Her hospital has the best maternity care probably in all of India. The kind of service they have managed to deliver is unheard of. she talks to every single mother who delivers at aastrika. She has literally built the Tesla of maternity care.

My Times of India op-ed today on collapsing fertility rates, and the policy we need: hum do, humare teen. Link in comments!

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

A hospital operating model can create a disproportionate number of unnecessary C-sections. The staff, infrastructure, training, and treatment philosophy can make it difficult to have a positive birthing experience.

If you or someone you care about is expecting, consider @aastrika_amc.

They are one of the few birthing centers that genuinely prioritize non-intervention unless it is medically necessary. Their incentives are aligned with providing as natural a birthing experience as the situation safely allows.

From the care philosophy to the physical environment, the entire center is designed to support a great birthing experience.

[let it go. @stayaway_002]

3-4 years ago, one of my juniors d£d because her mother-in-law insisted on a normal delivery instead of a C-section. She literally d1ed after giving birth bcos of blood loss.
They didn't sign consent. Her Useless husband couldn't even say a word.
And till the time her parents reached, things went out of control.
Delivery isn't a magical process that needs luck.
Dear women, the choice is yours. If your doctor says that a C-section is necessary, then don't let anyone pressure you into refusing it.

@pseudosforu @Sanjotapurohit The are killing the names. For example Gudishettlu is one village name and they call it KUDIsettulu. Jhonabanda is jhonapenda

Hosur is in TN. But they can't pronounce this or almost all places in the area without errors. For example there is a place called Gudishetlu. They literally have written it as KUDIsettulu. The level of linguistic torture the natives have to go through listening the Tamil immigrants is unbearable.

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

@Cockroach4India Please debate @CivitasSameer for starters.

[Srinidhi reddy @midsummer_bloom]

@CivitasSameer @abhijeet_dipke I saw you actually take down the LPI. I think what is missing in your style is the playbook Mamdani, Kejriwal and CPI are using. Look at their models and it is straight out of the book 'the blueprint for revolution '.

Masses have no history of listening to reason.

[Vaibhav Domkundwar @vaibhavbetter]

Today, if you are building a "better" school, you are missing the opportunity to re-imagine education entirely.

The opportunity today is to completely re-imagine education from the ground up. It will take time but the window is now with what AI enables for education ... some of the best teams around the world will figure this out.

Alpha School is a good example but probably only tip of the iceberg and the modern school of tomorrow will look nothing like the school or schooling today.

I am surprised that there is still not enough conversation and brainstorming around this, especially in India which can benefit disproportionately.

I don't know what it is right now but I am sure some stellar founders will figure this out sooner than later, as long as we reiterate that a "better" school is not the right answer :)

[Ivana Greco @IvanaDGreco]

I remain convinced that teaching children to read - and then having them read interesting, thought-provoking, excellent books - is one of the greatest “social-emotional” learning techniques we have in our tool kit.

The right books teach an incredible amount about character, virtue, discipline, overcoming challenges …. and do it in a way that is not overly didactic or off putting to the child.

Even DogMan is a far preferable way to quiet a child for a half hour than watching TV or giving them a tablet. (I actually really like the DogMan series for young readers, but that’s its own post).
