SUMMARY:What does Inclusion mean and Management of different learning needs
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Elements of Elementary – What does Inclusion mean and Management of different learning needs\nDate: Wednesday\, 11th September 2019\nTime: 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM\nAnchor: Shagufa Zohra Anwer\nResource Person: Ms. Champa Saha \nAll children\, not only have the ability but also the intrinsic motivation to learn\, believed Dr. Maria Montessori. \nIn line with this belief\, the Montessori environment which was first established in 1907 i.e. over a century ago has continued to keep its essence of inclusivity in education alive. Its principle of cosmic\, inclusive education does not separate or segregate children based on their abilities\, disabilities\, giftedness or any other diversity (caste\, colour\,\ncreed or race). \nAny child exposed to this environment is able to gracefully bring forth acceptance\, acknowledgment\, and respect for all of humanity. \nKeeping this in mind\, let us engage in a meaningful discussion on what inclusion means and how it can be implemented by applying different strategies. \nMs. Champa Saha\, Founder Principal\, The Samhita Academy \n30+ years experience in student learning facilitation \nExternal Resource Person\, NIMHANS\, Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry \n40+ years of volunteering and engaging in various capacities with organisations working for marginalized children \nSpearheaded the design\, development\, implementation\, and coordination of inclusive education projects/programs in multiple institutions and schools across the country for school teachers\, academic heads\, teacher trainees\, teacher trainers\, and parents \nMasters in Special Needs Education and Inclusion\, University of Northampton\, England \nCambridge International Diploma in Teaching\, University of Cambridge\, UK \nTheatre practitioner and story-teller\, Emotional Well-Being facilitator \nMs. Shagufa Zohra Anwer – 14+ years of experience teaching children with special needs in international schools\, government organisations and special schools \nDeep expertise in management of children with varied challenges in the age group of 5 to 18 years \nStrong Advocate for inclusion\, with a background in psychology and a Diploma in Special Education \nDiploma in Teaching from the University of Cambridge\, UK \nMontessori Elementary Course\, Certified by IMTC-Central affiliated to the IMC.

SUMMARY:Observation and Record Keeping
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Elements of Elementary – Observation and Record Keeping\nDate: Wednesday\, 12th June 2019\nTime: 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM\nAnchor: Chetan Manikonda\nResource Person: Kavitha Gunasekharan \n\n‘We must hold ourselves in humility and observe childhood\, observe the individual child\, with a view to discover if he himself can furnish us with a guide\, or lead us to the solution of the problem.’\n– Maria Montessori\, Progress in Education \n\nIn Montessori’s view\, observation is a tool that offers us the possibility of supporting the self-construction of children\, and observation could also be utilised as a technique that could guide us to appropriate responses to the particular needs (or problems) of the children in our care. \nIn 2016\, Chetan started looking for new education methodologies that implement personalised learning paths\, that adopt peer-based\, experiential and contextual learning methods\, that integrate character/life skills development\, that collaborate with the child’s primary teachers (the parents) and that revolve around having great educators to inspire our children and achieve higher educational outcomes. In that pursuit\, he discovered and found the answers in the Montessori education and\, as all of you\, fell in love with it. \nChetan runs a Montessori preschool and school in HSR Layout\, Bangalore\, called PEP School v2. \nHe is a graduate of IIT Madras and IIM Calcutta\, and worked for over ten years in business roles. \nMs.Kavitha G had heard from her friends about a school which was practical and where children did not have to carry books\, back in 1998. She came across Abacus Montessori School in Chennai for her daughter when she was unaware of its methodology. \nShe made an effort to understand it by reading books on Montessori\, which inspired her to change her course from a Marketing Coordinator in an MNC to learn Montessori from CMTChennai in 2004. \nShe worked in Abacus till 2007 and then completed the Montessori elementary training from AMI\, Navadisha Montessori Institute in 2009. \nSince then she worked with children from various backgrounds in schools\, a home- schooling centre and her own Aakam Montessori learning centre. Aakam is a centre where children from various backgrounds from conventional schools learn a range of concepts in the Montessori way. \nShe is also an elementary trainer with IMTC since 2013\, and an Associate Director for elementary courses at IMTC – Chennai.

S. Swaminathan Research Foundation.  She recently completed the Montessori elementary course from IMTC-Central.

SUMMARY:Wisdom of Ayurveda on the Dining Table
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Wisdom of Ayurveda on the Dining Table \nDate: Saturday\, 10th December & Sunday 11th December 2016 \nTime: 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM IST \nAnchor: Amukta Mahapatra \nResource Persons: Dr. Nikhil Mehta; Cata Fuentes; Blanca Obyrne \nThe basic purpose of this workshop is to empower every individual with knowledge about healthy living and to enable the participant to take complete control of one’s own health. The workshop will encompass the best among the eastern wisdom and western science to make it a complete integrated approach to health. The basic philosophy is based upon the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda. \nThis workshop will enable the participant to become aware about the intricate and dynamic connections between food\, body\, mind and our environment and thus enable us to regain the lost communication between us and our body. Once we have this simple knowledge about our food and our life-style\, it will enable us to keep one healthy without any complicated modern medical system. It is not our destiny that we are sick\, but it is our ignorance about right living or not following right lifestyle that makes us sick. \nThe workshop will not only introduce the participants about the concepts of Ayurveda but will also cover details on Panchmahabhoota (five elements) theory\, Tri-dosha theory (Vata\, Pitta\, Kapha)\, six taste theory\, digestive fire and food concepts\, household remedies\, Panchkarma and importance of mental health. This will also enable the participant to make dynamic changes in our food based on our body constitution\, environment; will also enable us of ways of “listening to our body” and creating the environment. \nDr. Nikhil MehtaAbout Cata & BlancaDr. Nikhil Mehta\nDr. Nikhil Mehta\, an MBBS graduate has been practicing Ayurveda in Pune\, since 1998. He has learnt Ayurveda from many senior masters. He has been practicing using the basic principles of Ayurveda with very minimal medicines. His approach is to use the best of the eastern wisdom and western science and to encompass an “integrated” approach to all health issues. At present\, along with his private practice at Pune\, he is devoting his time in spreading the wisdom of Ayurveda. \nHe strongly believes that our body has the inherent intelligence to correct the imbalance in our health\, only if one can learn the art of “listening to our body”. The ultimate aim is to increase the sensitivity and awareness about one’s own health problems. If one can learn that art\, one can take care of most of our health issues. \nHe strongly emphasizes that only each individual can best take care of one’s health rather than anyone else. His vision is to make society as independent as possible in understanding health problems. He believes that any common man can learn this “art”\, verify it on himself and thus master this “art” to enable us to lead a healthy and happy life. \nAbout Cata & Blanca\nContemporary nomads around the planet since long back\, we’ve lived in different countries\, eaten and cooked many kinds of foods\, shared our lives with people of several cultural backgrounds\, walked in a wide variety of places and landscapes… The Americas\, Europe and Asia are with us in the learnings and unlearnings we’ve collected along our journey… \nTravelling in India since 2002\, we’ve been gifted by this country’s generosity with its ancient wisdom that has brought Vipassana Meditation\, different forms of Yoga and Ayurveda to be a part of our life… \nWe started learning Ayurveda in 2003 with Dr. Nikhil Mehta in Pune\, through theoretical and practical seminars. And since then\, we have practiced it in our daily life as well as spread it through formal and informal activities we’ve carried out in different places and with a variety of audiences.
