Rationale of the Practice: The learning corner is more of an approach, than a modality and is designed based on the adult learning principles of internal motivation, self-direction and is experience oriented and relevancy oriented. Training using multiple modalities and application of this knowledge for cadre-specific exercises and problem solving, are the highlights of this approach. 

Implementation Strategy: Implemented from 2019 onwards, the learning corner was conceptualized by the then STDC Director Dr N D Deshmukh and supported by Training Coordinator Dr Asha Telang and team.

“The learning corner includes display of conceptualized material backed up with audiovisual aids in combination with other teaching modalities for effective learning. I would call these learning corners as teaching/speaking walls. My vision for a training programme is to benefit its participants in acquiring knowledge and bring about a positive change in their attitude and practice after the training. This is one of the successful experiments we have done in STDC Pune.”
