Dr.Indu Shahani addresses students of HFSI


Dr. Indu Shahani, Founding Dean of ISMI and former sheriff of Mumbai, visited the HFSI campus on 11 January, 2020 for an intuitive and perceptive interface with a dynamic group of learners. Felicitated by the principal, Ms. Kalyani Patnaik, the speaker’s address commenced with a philanthropic reflection on the need to work for the marginalized and lesser privileged sections of society. She lauded the efforts of the principal for her exemplary contribution in building a community and culture that is conducive to holistic learning and development. The speaker opined that acquiring skills was more important than seeking domain knowledge.

Dr. Shahani elucidated how 21st century skills of Communication, Creativity, Collaboration and Critical Thinking deserve more time and attention than perfunctorily filling in bubbles on a test. The Q & A session that followed was about students who keep their ears to the ground as they asked pertinent questions on the relevance of online learning, the future of Design etc. The vote of thanks, proposed by the students, reiterated the dictum that ‘the whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.’
