Q. You’ve forayed recently into teaching in the digital space; how did that happen?
A. For a while now, I’ve known and interacted with the core team of Classle, an online social media platform for students to “collaborate, share and learn from subject experts”. They have been keen for me to use the platform interestingly to create a course on Classical music. I didn’t agree instantly; for one, my knowledge of this space is very limited and secondly, I wanted to create something that was genuinely unique and user-friendly. In my attempt to understand how teaching and learning happens here, I signed up for a three-month course in Wealth Management on Classle. Plus, I wanted to study something I was neither very good at it nor was I not particularly interested in. That course not only gave me insights on the subject but also offered a good sense of how the technology and the platform work.
