简介:
As Dr Arora observes, the Hole-in-the-Wall approach has shown that the absence of a
teacher can sometimes encourage children to explore more‘bravely’ than they would in
their presence. In our trials we have been exploring the limits of self-motivated and
self-managed learning by the children. So yes, if we had involved teachers in the usage
of these kiosks, they would have dictated the nature and pace of the learning, defeating
the whole purpose of the project. However, as she again observes, institutional indifference
may result in abdication of responsibility and lack of sustainability. We need a
solution to this.
