We all know that different people prefer different ways of learning, but how often are students given the chance to decide how they want to learn? Devi argues that autonomy is a crucial ingredient for effective learning, and shares with us why she believes teachers should actively involve their students in the learning process. Devi Sahny grew up in Antwerp, in Belgium & attended both French and American international school. She pursued a degree at Georgetown University in Philosophy and Economics. She was a Teaching Assistant for many courses. It was then that her passion for teaching started. She graduated with first class honors and spent the first three years post University at Goldman Sachs in Investment Banking. She realized she very much missed education, so decided to embrace an education venture in Singapore, where she started her company, Ascend Now. Devi is very passionate about involving students more in the process of learning by personalising their curriculum and giving them more autonomy. She is a Forbes30U30 recipient. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
