ISSE SE ONLINE TRAINING COURSE 1

Course 1 – Module 2

"Education should result in the purification of the heart.”   ~  Sathya Sai

The online Course 1 in Sathya Sai Education in Human Values which began in February 2021 presented Module 2 from 2nd October to 4^th June 2022, every alternate Saturday with a break during both the Christmas and Easter periods. Just like with Module 1, Module 2 included a combination of both theoretical presentations and practical workshops with the active involvement of all participants.

16 sessions covered a large variety of topics dealing with both the philosophy of the programme and the know-how related to its implementation: the development of a lesson plan and the aim and application of the 5 teaching techniques seen within the direct, indirect and co-curricular approaches.

Module 2 furthermore highlighted how by cultivating Human Values we call upon a deep Divine Essence, the very core of humanness which manifests in loving thoughts, words and deeds, fostering and promoting an environment and culture of love in our homes and local community. The exciting adventure of learning to connect to and to express our True Self, entails a path that begins within the individual. It thrives on earnestness and dedication, among other highly important character traits.
