    Learning Experience: A positive learning environment is often one where learners feel they are learning and making progress. Help enable this by regularly prompting students to reflect upon what they've learnt, and where possible linking it to real-world uses.
    Faculty: Deserve all good and wealth in this world, because you love other as yourself and you always help and support. You have been a great teacher, lecturer, and a Professor to me, and I fully enjoyed your lectures, you explained everything in detail and it made it easier for me to understand. A good curriculum is never a one-and-done initiative. Revisiting it regularly allows you to not only review how things are going, but also make room for new topics that are relevant today. In fact, the World Economic Forum touts curriculum as a key player in helping educators keep up with the speed of changing trends, technology and skills students will need in the future.
