Message from Mr. Jaiprakash S. Hasrajani – CEO, TAALEEM INDIA
It’s been said that we have a 19th century curriculum, 20th century buildings and organizations, and 21st century students with an undefined future. At Taaleem, we think it is time to do something about this, which is why we believe in building long term partnerships by adding value through service and knowledge. By leveraging the globally successful products and services offered by KU, our aim is to dramatically enhance the education and corporate learning systems in India.
Message from Dr. Jeremy Williams - Chief Academic Officer, Knowledge Universe
The focus of this venture will be learning not teaching. Furthermore, it is deep learning not surface learning that we are interested in. This is made possible only when you are an active participant in knowledge construction rather than a passive recipient of information.
We are interested in developing your powers of analysis not your memories. What you learn stays with you, because you learn how to learn (and, indeed, how to un-learn!) Rapid technological change requires this. We call it future-proof learning ... learning that lasts. ‘Mugging up’ for exams is not compatible with the development of 21st century skills.
Understanding the need of the hour
- A thorough enhancement mechanism which not only changes the current pedagogy, but propels it exponentially.
- That differentiating factor for the graduates/management students which all the institutes are constantly unable to provide.
- Identification and enhancement of skills required for professional growth of the Manpower which is determined to taste progress.
WHY IS THIS EVENT IMPORTANT?
- This is where state of the art online delivery platforms will take over the traditional classroom approach.
- It’s going to reveal how modern day management students would learn and acquire.
- It’s an opportunity to understand and embrace the trend that lies ahead for the founders of education groups & institutions.
- It would surface as a big breakthrough for the people who have been looking for progress in their current job/profile for a long time.
