This course initiates the process of designing a vision for students that is contextual and informed by the voices of the collective. Students lead a life that is influenced by decades of cultural, socio-economic and political dynamics. This course acknowledges these dynamics and enables the teacher to work with students beyond academic goals by equipping them with tools and strategies to learn about the ‘collective’ and ‘context’.
