Open Learning Platform : An eco system of education
Citation preview
The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
-Albert Einstein
Today people think of getting into college for education
And not for learning
Let me give you 2 examples of learning and education
Story 1 : My College
Where I did my engineering in Electronics and Communications course
Busted, right ?
But I memorized everything for the exam
Focusing for the exams, barely I learned anything
I didn’t understand Electronics nor Communications
Did final year project on ‘Hacking EM Waves and reproducing the same’
Project was a huge success resulted in Front page of National Dailynewspaper….
I learned Fourier transform, electronic circuit and more from this 3 month project !
I learned it from Internet!
Story 2 : Where I started my first job
DUBAI CITY
I started my work in Industrial Automation
3 months of intensive training
I learned more than what was taught during my 4 years of engineering career
In terms of technical as well as in decision making!
i.e, I learned Engineering as well as MBA
I was executing one of the largest BMS project in the Middle East with the things I learned during my first 3 months !
Working for an 1 year and more…
Built my confidence so high that…
I wanted to start a company!
Started company in Software Industry!
had 3 viral products…
Tintumon – more than 15,000 registered users and sprang up a tintumon fever for some months!
Indian Rupee Font – More than 20 million downloads
Fedena – Powering 40,000 Schoolsand 20 million users!
What if you get such a learning experience during your course of higher education ?
Possibilities are immense
Today the market leaders like Apple, Microsoft, Oracle etc …
have CEO’s dropped out from colleges !
Cofounder of Paypal and Investor of Facebook – Peter Thiel….
will pay you to drop out of college! and Pursue Entrepreneurship
Learning makes a big difference …
to you and hence to the world !
