FW:regarding the ahmedabad trip...
hi everyone
i asked Jagdish a few questions that were on the top of our minds about the Ahmedabad trip.so im forwarding the clarifications he provided me.lets all go through it and come to a conclusion asap pls....
Can we fly instead of training it?
YES, PROVIDED THE COST DOESNT KEEP ANYONE FROM TAKING THE TRIP. THIS DECISION NEEDS TO BE MUTUALLY AGREEABLE TO ALL PARTICIPANTS
Is it absolutely essential to go for this trip?
YES IT IS. THEY WILL GET AN EXPOSURE TO 2 PROGRESSIVE SCHOOLS, MEET SCHOOL HEADS, INTERACT WITH TEACHERS, SEE CLASSROOMS IN PRACTICE.
Can we give them the exact schedule, etc so that they can book cheap tickets in advance?
POSSIBLE DATES (for train travel)
26/11 NIGHT DEP FROM del
28/11 EVE DEP FROM ahmd
29/11 MORN ARR at del
OR
10/12 NIGHT DEP FROM del
12/12 EVE DEP FROM ahmd
13/12 MORN ARR at del
We need 2 full days in Ahmd to visit 2 schools. Obviously,if we do air travel then we leave on 12th EARLY morning and come back 13th night. Arrangements will anyway have to be made to stay for one night only.
Do they pay the entire cost or does idiscoveri pay some\amount?
ACCORDING TO HIMANSHU. THEY COVER ALL COSTS i.e\nTRAVEL, STAY & FOOD. IDI COVERS ONLY COST OF COMMUNICATION. "
(However if cost becomes an issue, we may need to cancel the whole thing)
Can they get some info about the schools they are visiting, etc, etc.
WE WILL VISIT:
1) THE RIVERSIDE SCHOOL (www.schoolriverside.com)
2) THE EKLAVYA SCHOOL (www.eklavya.org)
WILL CONFIRM DATES TO THE SCHOOLS ONCE OUR STUDENTS INTERNALLY DECIDE AS TO WHAT WOULD SUIT THEM. UNTIL THEN VISITING THE WEBSITES WILL GIVE THEM ENOUGH FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
HOPE THIS HELPS!

I love the way you all are already using this blog for communicating with the entire group on various issues related to your iDiscoveri program.

I am not comfortable with the December dates. We can check out both train and air fares and see what is the most cost effective and time effective option.
But, I donot see what we can hope to achieve by just walking around and talking to a few people for a couple of hours. Can this not be replicated by an exhaustive movie??
