Key Concepts & Insights
A visit to Shikha academy was very interesting. I personally acquired a lot of insights on physical learning environment, educational management, teacher professional development and curicullum. in my grasp, Shikha academy is a philanthropic movement aiming to enable marginalised students take basic level body exams. Their syllabus is focused on motivation,alignment and transfer which makes their students real competent. From such a curicullum you will witness how a lot of activites and environment engages to it.

This experience will be well applicable in establishing other educational centers such as learning spaces in various UDOM points.
1. Immediate Applications: Try to see where in the UDOM-CTL space to restructure the physical environment.
