Reflecting on the last 3 days of sessions.

  The last 3 days have been a mixture of sorts. There were some very engaging activities and great presentations along with the "not so great ones" accompanying them. Reflecting on the sessions I didn't quite like would be pointless because there isn't really anything that I take back from them except a truckload of information that I would anyway get in the next few days. So, I would stick to the sessions I liked. 
  Shashi's session on 'working with the government' was an eye opener of sorts because after really long I met someone who actually had nice things to say about the government. All along, there has been a certain stereotype attached to the government and this session made me look for a possibility of breaking the stereotype.But only a possibility! Whether it gets broken or not remains to be seen.
 Today's session with Hardy made me realize how nuanced and layered policies have to be.If there is a problem that needs to be addressed, there are a dozen sub problems of the same problem that need to be looked into. Today's session has actually compelled me to finally sit down and read what the RTE actually proposes and delve deeper into what else needs to proposed.
 My favourite part of each day continues to be the activities that Pradeep and Nisha and their team does with us. Great way to learn new things (and waking us up from slumber)!! :)
 And finally this reflection would be incomplete without the mention of Radha who instigated us to reflect on how useful it is to reflect :)
