The study can range from exploration of our ancient texts, books and poems written by great authors, paintings, architecture, festivals
and traditions, songs and music and many such aspects that are unique to each local setting,
Thus the KTPI course has immense scope for this exploration and discussion in classrooms, thereby strengthening the much needed
21st Century Skills of Collaboration, Effective communication, Creative thinking, Lateral and Critical thinking, use of appropriate
information, media and technology, strengthening flexibility skills, leadership skills, Initiative taking skills, Productivity skills, Social and
emotional skills besides a host of other skills that would serve to develop a wholesome personality.
The NEP 2020, emphasizes on these aspects too: Para 4.27 of National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 refers to the traditional
knowledge of India that is both sustainable and strives for the welfare of all. In order to become the Knowledge power in this century,
it is imperative that we understand our heritage and teach the world the 'Indian way' of doing things.
The knowledge traditions of India are continuous and cumulative. They are textual and exegetical traditions in different areas
of thought and experience: philosophy, medicine, grammar, architecture, geography, literary theory, polity and political economy,
logic, astronomy and mathematics, military science, metallurgy, agriculture, mining and gemology, and shipbuilding, among
others. Concepts and technical vocabularies of these traditions are still a part of the thinking and the languages of modern India.
The course concepts will broadly focus on the following outcomes in our students:
1. Help to develop a positive sense of self identity
2. Develop respect for self and others
3. Nurture tolerance for all cultures and differences
4. Reinforce values that are integral to every personality
5. Create responsibility and empowerment to preserve our rich cultural heritage
