I just think, their contribution to the list will be invaluable, even if non-technical, since they have direct contact with the students. I don't expect them to be super active but just emailing once in a while should be no harm. -- 0 ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

I've organised FDP as a student volunteer, working closely with the staff members (one and half years back). From my observation, most of them attended FDPs just for the certificates. They believe such certificates add value to their profile and that it helps in their career growth; no different from the attitude of majority of students. Yes, it was shocking. There were very few staff who attended with genuine interest. But making that interest sustain requires lot more effort than such 2-3 day programmes, IMHO. P.S: I'm not generalising things. I'm just saying what I observed. -- Vignesh Nandha Kumar http://vigneshnandhakumar.in ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Hmmm. Possible. But I believe it is lot more mundane than that. Life goes on whether they know something or not. So there is no real need to learn, much less learn *after* a training program. As has been mentioned more than once, the only driver for many people -- teachers, students all-- if not a vast majority, is the certificate. -- Asokan Pichai *To find everything profound — that is an inconvenient trait.* It makes one strain one's eyes all the time, and in the end one finds more than one might have wished. -- Nietzsche ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
