During the Masterclass session, I was guided so well, I started to look at things differently… For visual learners and imaginative minds, museum learning can be very impactful. The understanding of the past can become much clearer through in a museum than learning through textbooks…My own curiosity has multiplied manifold. I have begun to relate the past with the present which I did not do earlier. I am very thankful to the resource people for giving me the opportunity to look at things differently and develop a new perspective.
