A session on "How to connect Content, Teaching and Requirement" was

Sahay, a Pro Public Speaker, Senior Police Officer, Reflective
Practitioner, Technology Evangelist, Management Guru, Thought Leader
& a Writer is a Cyber Security Expert who being from a History
background groomed himself to be an IT expert. In his talk, he referred
to Role Models like Steve Jobs & Bill Gates and urged the
participants to inculcate their values and thought process in our daily
living. He stressed on the issue of "Educated Unemployables" and the
role of Teachers in this challenging situation of meeting the talent
requirements. He emphasised that as Teachers, our priority should be on
developing Content for the curriculum rather than delivery of the
content. He said Curriculum & Content work in synergy as the
Teacher's role would be to transform the intangibles into tangibles. He
also encouraged the teachers to upgrade the quality of teaching pedagogy
year after year. Content comes into LIFE through the expertise and
competency of a teacher and one should use innovative pedagogy so that
it reaches the student. He also expressed his finding that “Anything
done without passion is better not done” and also "Anything done that
cannot be measured is again better not done". He stressed on the
importance of evaluating self on the Learning Life Cycle as to which
stage we are in amongst - Data Stage, Information Stage, Knowledge Stage
or Wisdom Stage and accordingly upgrade ourselves to the next level.

session & appreciated Prof. Ananth Prabhu for connecting Mr. Sanjay
Sahay to Sahyadri which provided opportunity for the faculty members and
students to gain insight on the prevailing issue and the course of
