@SwathiBavanaka I've been thinking of launching some party planning services and came across Evibe. Would be super grateful to understand more from your experience!

Today is the last day of my dad's time in service as a police officer. Here are four things I loved about him in that role! Read below :)

Do leave a m comment if you knew my father.

Actionables for me:
1. Focus on how to improve personalized learning in Eklavya
2. Focus on improved assessments

We are already working on both, this book confirms the importance of the same...

[Niharika Venkatesh @niharika2020]

1. Personal situations, How we assess, How we expect kids to learn are three factors that determine outcomes in educational achievements/performance
2. Acute stress from personal situations/stereotypes/expectations can cause cognitive distraction, reducing performance
(contd.)

[Niharika Venkatesh @niharika2020]

3. Ideally, we should work on things like food/nutrition/economic situation etc to level the playing field...but in the absence of it, if we focus on HOW WE EXPECT kids to learn, we can actually help every student learn better with more depth, breadth and rigor.

@skhndh I think it's new and very much a generational thing. Extends to my peers as well (we're closer to 30 and the borderline millennials).. I don't want kids either! And if I really must raise, I'd consider adopting.

Students don't need a perfect teacher. Students need a happy teacher, who's gonna make them excited to come to school and grow a love for learning.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

Being wrong is not a bad thing like they teach you in school. It is an opportunity to learn something.

There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error.🧠

@ndtv Good, useful video. Just please say him OR HER next time when referring to your doctor :)

Hmmmm

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

You cannot get educated by this self-propagating system in which people study to pass exams, and teach others to pass exams, but nobody knows anything.

You learn something by doing it yourself, by asking questions, by thinking, and by experimenting. 🧠

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.

Inspiration is perishable, act on it.

Recognition is perishable, build on it.

Temptation is perishable, sleep over it.

Determination is perishable, don’t rely on it.

@Cleartrip Have DMed, looking forward to a response asap. Thank you. Tried calling your helpline and it just says not eligible for refund. With or without the pandemic, those were refundable tickets!

[Niharika Venkatesh @niharika2020]

@Cleartrip I booked a flight to and from Paris for 20th March 2020 through HDFC Smartbuy and I tried to cancel the tickets well in advance. These were refundable tickets. Why am I unable to get ANY refund at all? Please help.
