Skills Test 2010


~ Sharing knowledge is not about giving people something, or getting something from them. That is only valid for information sharing. Sharing knowledge occurs when people are genuinely interested in helping one another develop new capacities for action; it is about creating learning processes. ~

Separate documents

It really doesn't matter. It would be better if you can submit all topics in word file and participant bios in another word file , and scanned copy of principal letter as another attachment . Please note that your "leader" (Teacher) must be an active participant able to post comments to other participant blogs .

Hello sir,

Good Idea!

Thats acceptable ....Make sure Team Leader has control on all three . This time (2010) , team leader is center point and has to take active part in posting & commenting unlike 2009 contest (occasional presensce with unlimited excuses .... :-) )

Is it necessary that the students and teachers belong to the same institution? For example it the student is just working under a teacher (on a project or paper) who does not teach at his/her college

Team leader from Different College

YES ! you can get teacher/guide from different college. It is acceptable. Whole idea is , we expect Teacher to lead/guide the team how they play the game. Lot of students have talents but why only few go to heights ? Remember, Sachin Tendulkar is in his position now not only because of his own talent but also continuous coaching from coache(s). So, GOOD team leader is more important .
