     Use    what is already there
     If it is not good enough, put out yours

   Generate learning, curiosity
     It doesn’t have to be technology
     It could mean newer techniques!!

   Fundamentals of Adult Learning
     Use   what they already know!
At an institutional level
 Educational experience as
  USP?
 ..and the payoff for that is?
Any Questions?
