We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people.

The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

Basic Orientation Thesis Writing
9. • The last six months (+) are devoted to individual thesis
projects
• The programme inculcates 4 essential skills, not only
knowledge: 1. time management, 2. communication, 3.
project management and 4. teamwork and leadership.
• Peer, course and teacher evaluation are routine
• The curriculum must lay a foundation for the first job in
management if starting out, or for promotion if
returning. And also for future pursuit of the Ph.D.
• Make it hard to make it matter. Students take pride in
what they find challenging to accomplish. I am quite
formal in year 1.
• Encourage the cohort to create a community. That is
the basis of a personal network
Notes on Pedagogy
Gregory F. Lowe 2014
10. What’s next?
Gregory F. Lowe 2014
• Curriculum version 4 will be a complete revamp in
autumn 2014. The first time I have a work group to
collaborate. The revamp is required because:
1. Results of the evaluation process confirm the
programme is not integrated nearly enough with
the wider faculty and student body at CMT
2. The professorship will have to be confirmed or
discontinued in 2017 and the decision will depend
on factors that are collegial in nature
3. A new course for upper level BA students begins in
autumn 2014
4. Possibilities for a more international teaching
arrangement via European exchanges
