When we underwent the incubation process at IIM Bangalore’s NSRCEL, they kept asking us about our ‘stickiness’ or return customers. Their point, a valid one, was that it’s not enough to keep finding new folks to work with, it is also about ensuring that these folks come back to you often.

हम खुशी से घोषणा करते हैं कि हमारे टीचर्स कलेक्टिव ने शिक्षकों और छात्रों के लिए एक नया और रोचक हिंदी पाठ्यक्रम स्केचनोटिंग लॉन्च किया है। इस पाठ्यक्रम में, शिक्षकों और छात्रों को स्केचनोटिंग के महत्व और तकनीक के बारे में जानकारी दी जाएगी, जिससे उन्हें अपनी सोच को विशेष रूप से व्यक्त करने का नया तरीका सीखने का मौका मिलेगा।
स्केचनोटिंग के माध्यम से, हम अपने विचारों को चित्रों, ड्राइंग्स, और आकृतियों के रूप में दर्ज करते हैं जो हमें अपनी सोच को समझने और दूसरों के साथ साझा करने में मदद करते हैं। यह हमें अधिक सक्रिय और बेहतर समझाने में मदद करता है, क्योंकि विजुअल धाराओं का उपयोग हमारी सोच को सुदृढ़ करता है।
स्केचनोटिंग न केवल अध्ययन और सीखने को मजेदार बनाता है, बल्कि यह हमारे जीवन को रंगीन और रोचक बनाने में भी मदद करता है। इससे हमारी सोच और रचनात्मकता में भी नई ऊर्जा आती है।
अगर आप भी अपनी सोच को नए और रोचक तरीके से व्यक्त करना चाहते हैं, तो स्केचनोटिंग का एक अद्वितीय प्रयोग करें। इससे आपका अनुभव न केवल बेहतर होगा, बल्कि आपकी सोच भी नई ऊर्जा को प्राप्त करेगी।
द टीचर्स कलेक्टिव में, हम 6,000 छात्रों और 2,000 शिक्षकों के साथ अपने काम में उन तरीकों का उपयोग करते हैं जो भारतीय संदर्भ में आजमाए और परखे गए हैं। समावेशन हमारे डीएनए में है और हमारे पाठ्यक्रम और तरीके सभी छात्रों के लिए काम करते हैं, जिनमें से कुछ को सीखने में विशिष्ट कठिनाइयाँ, एडीएचडी, ऑटिज्म आदि हैं।
अनुमानित समय: कुल मिलाकर 1 घंटा, आपकी गति से (कोई समय सीमा नहीं)
कीमत: रु.
