The Art of Learning

Back in 18^th century, the Education System was established with a basic purpose of imparting knowledge. Knowledge of things that governs each and every aspect of us.
From the mechanics of human body structure to the laws of the unending universe, the schools and universities that we linger on, guarantee to provide us the ins’ and outs’ of every single molecule of it.
How intriguing that is!

• But is that actually happening? Or have we become a cogwheel where things are going on and on but nothing substantial is being produced?

Undoubtedly, the main intent is of learning. And to understand this in a better context, we must clarify what actually learning is.

What is learning?

• By definition, Learning is the process of acquiring new, or modifying existing, knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences.

The Traditional Path

Everywhere you go, you’ll be told you must learn. Learn whatever you want to. But no one tells how to do it? Because no one knows it. At most, they advise to take up a course of that particular domain by getting into a college or an institute.

• If you’ll look at the people who are the idols of today’s times— Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Jack Ma, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk and anyone you pick— they had either dropped out of their formal education or flunked the university exams. They were passionate about what they were going to create. That's what drove them to the top.

But most of us don’t have the grit and resilience to follow an unconventional path that is uncertain. We ourselves stick to the curriculum and walk the path everyone is walking.
Because its’ safe and credible. 

Wanting the Right Thing

We all want the best for ourselves. And to acquire the best, one has to strive for it.

• Very rarely it happens that we ask ourselves the right questions about what we want out of anything we want to do. But it is the most critical task to perform. Because when you ask the right questions, you get the right answers.

There is nothing wrong in joining an institute that offers you a degree or certification in whatever you intend to pursue. But your intent behind joining the course is what makes all the difference. You want to get into a particular course because it is the most demanded in the eyes of the recruiters or it offers the hottest salary packages.

Or you genuinely want to learn that the thing is all about? Means you actually are fascinated by its’ mechanism. 

• You really want to learn how the concepts of Physics operate or you want to learn how to score 90+ marks in it?

The Right Way of Learning

Everything is a process. Life is a process and so is death. Falling in love and falling out of it, both take time. I believe, we are very well versed with it. But when it comes to learning, we are always in a kind of hurry to accomplish things and in that pursuit, we lose it all in one shot.

• Researchers and scientists are working hard to understand the mechanism of learning. And they came up with a neat outcome that holds firmly when it comes to learning. Accordingly, if you understand the process of learning, you can apply it to anywhere and everywhere.

The above pyramid is self-explanatory. The more you’ll get hold of it, the more you’ll see as how wrongly we had been taught each time and at every place.

Awakinn’s Philosophy

Being a prey of the same rotten educational system, the Awakinn’s seed was sown with the prime focus of changing the way of learning.

Because if not now, then when?

The Three Pillars of Awakinn

I Do it together

Let see it this way, why you enroll yourself in a gym membership? Because it provides you an environment. The ambiance of the gym sets you in a mood that you feel the ease of working out.

The same energy and vibes we have imbibed in  Awakinn’s Developer Hub. Here, one gets to interact with other like-minded coders and grow with them by learning from them and at the same time teaching them. It’s quid pro quo.

II Learn through Making

There is a proverb that we have heard numerous times, but rarely follow. And that is: practice makes a man perfect. And in reality, yes it is. If you just fill yourself up with the information and don’t implement it, then whatever you have accumulated is a waste as it will wither in no time.

• Our minds don’t have the capacity to retain each and every information. We got to revive it again and again, and again and again, and again and again till the point it becomes our second nature.

At Awakinn, we follow a two-way path. We not just deliver theoretical knowledge, but at the same time, we present you with projects so that you work on them and analyse how much you have learned and how much more efforts you need to put in to achieve mastery.

III Exploration

We live in a time where everything can be availed by just a click. That’s comforting, but also lethal. It kills the innate curiosity of human minds. The amount of efforts one has to put in finding anything have just gone to negligible.

At Awakinn, we don’t just focus on presenting you the day-to-day advancements happening in the world of technology. We are tech freaks and we want you to yourself take the pains and explore other aspects of life. Because no matter how technical dependent we become, at the end of the day we are humans and we carry a soul that seeks adventure.

From the very beginning, we give the power in the hands of students as we believe in the freedom of individuality. Every individual is unique and comes with its own set of skills and caliber. At best we do is push the envelope a little more and empower them by directing them to the right path.
