AMBASSADOR, COUNTRY LEAD HUNDRED

Edoardo Montenegro, Torino, Italy

Episode #51: Sandeep Dutt in conversation with Edoardo Montenegro, a Hundred Ambassador and Country Lead. Edoardo has a strong passion for learning and a deep love for community, change and communication management. He developed his professional skills working for the banking industry in Italy, where he learned to plan and execute communication projects in marketing and HR. Once he understood the impact innovation has on companies and society, he gave space to his entrepreneurial vocation. He co-founded Betwyll, an ed-tech startup that fosters reading through social networking, working with more than 600 schools and universities worldwide. All this led him to Northern Europe, where he learned to work both as a tech entrepreneur and an ecosystem builder.

Betwyll helps teachers make students read more, better and with lots of fun.

We developed a reading method and a webapp which combine reading and social networking, a place where students can read, comment, share and learn together. The teacher chooses a book, sets a reading calendar and then asks students to read and add short comments of 140 characters to each paragraph they want. The method works on paper as well as on the webapp, improving deep reading skills.

Learning Forward

By Sandeep Dutt

You will love the stories shared by our happy teachers and passionate educators. We grow the capacity of your people to improve student achievement and transform your school into a culture of trust and collaboration in less time with fewer resources. Each person in your school contributes to the culture of your school. School culture is built on the actions and interactions of the people. You make your school stronger by adding value to others and making others feel valued.

Concentration - Shivani Rao

Concentration is the ability to focus the mind on one subject, object or thought without being distracted. Most people lack the ability to concentrate. Concentration plays an important role in students' lives. It means control of the attention. When you read a book that is very interesting, you do not hear people shouting or calling your name. The whole energy of your mind becomes concentrated on that one Book. Concentration and consistency improve quality work and help in gaining success.

But nowadays there are a lot of distractions for students such as cinemas, tv shows and online social networking platforms. Many students are addicted to computer games and social networking sites. These distracting things that will definitely hinder our performance. 

Concentration and Meditation should start from childhood and it will be highly helpful to them in later stages. Daily yoga exercise should be performed to increase this ability in children. Students in early age can be mould in any shape. It does not help in controlling their mind and also helps to avoid negative thoughts and enable them to gain inner peace. Performing sharpens their memory and improves their ability to study and do creative work.
