Dolly I think the attachment did not go through the mails to the parents.  Can you check and if not, then send the attachement of the presentation.

Dear parents

We are delighted to share our experience of hosting our flagship school event, Drishtikon 3.0 for students of Class 12 on our maiden Google Hangout. 

Drishtikon is our flagship event meant to build perspective in our students. We have a Facebook page, we do stage events and this year we thought we would use Google Hangout, invite guests from outside Mumbai, live broadcast it to parents and have it saved on YouTube. 

Our Chief Guests in the Hangout were Dr. Sujatha Ramdorai, Member, PM's Advisory Council and National Innovation Council (under Sam Pitroda) and Dr. Rajesh Kasturirangam , Ph.d from MIT.

The theme for Drishtikon 3.0 was :

"Education was meant to offer solutions...When did Education itself become a problem?"

The experience has been life changing for all of us. Students learnt a new medium to reach out to a large audience, they were able to present videos, presentations, discussions, and answer live questions from the guests/judges. It has taken the school into a new league altogether as we are now not limited by space, time, distance constraints.

I have made a presentation on this and am sending you a PDF file of the same. 

The original unedited version is on         Drishtikon 3.0 

We will also be posting the edited videos on the school website. 

Warm regards
