Selected Idea – My favorite• "Nurture an Idea" cell to
help students nurture in a direction with respect to their ideas• An idea can be someone’s
baby, but it needs expert advice to nurture it effectively.
• “Nurture An Idea” cell will be a cell of expert group that will act as a catalyst to give direction to any idea.
