Boot Camp for Life Skills:
Learning By Choice

Student choice builds ownership in the learning and it leads to increased engagement and empowerment. Student choice creates an environment where students discover what they want to learn.

"When students get to make decisions about their learning, it can be powerfully motivating." - Stephen Merrill

Student choice builds ownership in the learning and it leads to increased engagement and empowerment. Student choice creates an environment where students discover what they want to learn.

And this is exactly what we experienced in the first boot camp of our award-winning life skills course 'Living Conversations'.

We witnessed almost a houseful show today. We had students from various MBA branches and batches to learn significant life skills like public speaking, interpersonal skills and so on.

What makes this entire event extremely remarkable is because of the following facts, 

1. Students showed up entirely 'by choice', not by any compulsion. 
   
   
2. Students already knew their participation would NOT earn them any 'credits', 'marks', or even 'attendance'. 
   
   
3. Students also knew they would be assigned various tasks and activities to perform, post their participation in the boot camp.

That is why we say “Learning happens the best when it's 'Learning By Choice' and that's what true educators believe in the most."
