If we can trust our toddlers will be well cared for in community-based creches run by parents ,why can't we trust our older kids will be able to learn for themselves in community-based learning pods run by entrepreneurial parents ?

@malpani One such self learning pod is in Haldwani - Durga City Center - named as Adhyayan Ghar, an entrepreneurial venture. There used to be a traditional name of such pods वाचनालय - a bit different from पुस्तकालय। We have loads of them in traditional towns.

@lokkalyandas Do they have a website ? Can you please connect me ?

@malpani @lokkalyandas I guess the organization mentioned by @lokkalyandas (first look, it seems like book store/library/read room for IAS aspirants/other students). Email/Mobile is given in the profile. m.facebook.com/10008037359146…

@CodingCommando @malpani Yes, this is the one. A novel and successful experiment indeed...

@CodingCommando @malpani @lokkalyandas Great! We had planned a similar community centre for homeschoolers in Bangalore where we could donate our books and other resources. However, we couldn't find a place we could afford, to start the center.
