An online series of 8 workshops for anyone looking to enrich and facilitate Self-Directed Learning.You may be reassessing your approach towards education and choosing or thinking of choosing unschooling or homeschooling or open learning for your children. It might have been motivated by the dissatisfaction with conventional schooling. It might also have been the prospect of immense options, or the satisfaction when one charts their own path. Since it is a path less traveled, we look for people who can support us, who have walked this path, and who can help us with perspectives and insights into this journey as well as share their experience on some common doubts.
In this program, we share our processes of Self-Directed Learning(SDL) through our stories and experiences.
Self-Directed Learning(SDL) is not a way, or a method, or an approach. It is a space, an environment, an acceptance, a belief, a soil for the child to grow - as nature is already tuned to deliver. If you think that all this sounds too utopian, then we invite you to experience Self-Directed Learning with Aarohi.
WHAT SDL program WILL OFFER YOU
The program offers an enriching learning experience for you to -
Explore many processes of how a child can lead his/her own learning
Connect with the child to understand child’s interests and take them forward
Collaborate with an engaged community who are walking this less trodden, but deeply meaningful path.
WHAT SDL is not about
- Parenting tips / counselling / support for parenting concerns
- Activity-based learning
WHO IS THIS PROGRAM FOR
If you are curious about exploring the world of open-learning
If you are a parent who is choosing to homeschool/ unschool
If you want to bring SDL in your home as a way of life, what better way than to spend this summer with your child to lead, to decide and to discover self
If you are working with children and want to understand the process of SDL
WHO ARE WE
Aarohi is a community of self-directed learners - everyone, whether an adult or a child, decides what they want to learn, how they want to learn, when they want to learn. Self-assessment, self-reflection, sharing and collaboration are some of the tools that help us grow as individuals and as a community
The sessions will be led by Aditi, Ratnesh, and a team of parents from the Aarohi Community who live the life of SDL and bring their experience and stories.

CONTRIBUTION
All Aarohi's program works on a contribution basis. This means several things: Most importantly, finances should NOT be a constraint for people to attend the program. People contribute as per the value they derive from the program. The indicated contribution for the SDL program is Rs 7,000/-
However, this is AKSD - Apni Khushi Se Doh (translation - Give as per your wish). Your financial contribution would be an add-on gift to your participation and interaction during the workshop. Obviously, the add-on does not have to be only in the form of a financial contribution - you can give us other gifts too, like sweets or chocolates or blessings or talking about the program so much that the whole world knows about it ... etc.
So the above-indicated contribution is not to confused with the value of the course. You can gift us however much. You can contribute more than the indicated contribution. It will be a lovely gift to people who cannot afford to. You can contribute less than the indicated contribution. We will gladly accept it - no questions asked. You can pay in advance, or during, or immediately after the sessions or much later, or even in installments. You may even wake up one morning after 5 years and realize how much our programs and workshops helped you and send us a big fat cheque :-). Or you may simply forget us. Either way, we will remember you, always, for giving us an opportunity to interact, learn and grow with you!
