Practically launches ‘The Learning Lobby,’ a holistic, one of the first such initiative for the wellbeing of educators, students, and parents by an EdTech company

~ Survey conducted with upto 300 teachers across 9 cities led to Practically launching this platform with curated experts to help address relevant and pressing issues towards emotional and mental wellness

Mumbai, November 29, 2021: Practically, India’s first experiential learning app designed to make learning immersive for students of classes 6-12, has launched ‘The Learning Lobby,’ an initiative answering basic yet important questions that could be playing on the minds of educators and parents. Practically has put together a curated team of experts offering insights on navigating these situations. This is one of the most comprehensive initiatives in the industry that starts off with webinars on a fortnightly basis.

The objective of this initiative is to ensure teachers and parents are able to cultivate a healthy environment for themselves and their students by overcoming challenges such as striking a work-life balance (for teachers), stress management, and dealing with adolescence to begin with.

The initiative came to light after an internal study was conducted by Practically to understand the challenges faced by educators. The findings showcased that 78% of teachers believe that students are facing the brunt of stress and boredom. 55% of educators are finding it difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance as they have faced constant fatigue. Over 70% of teachers believe that they need guidance to adapt better to the current scenario and expert intervention will help them overcome their current challenges. The Learning Lobby is a thoughtful response to the feedback received from educators from across the country.

Commenting on the initiative, Ms. Charu Noheria, Co-Founder & COO of Practically said, “Practically has endeavoured to make learning a joyful experience. Our latest initiative is aligned with this vision. With the launch of The Learning Lobby, we further aim to develop an in-depth understanding of the ever-evolving needs of students, parents, and educators. We will cover issues that impact them and meticulously address them through our curated team of experts.  Awareness about emotional and mental well-being is still at a nascent stage in India, especially in the education sector but this is the right time to table it efficiently. The Learning Lobby will equip parents, teachers, and caregivers with best practices to eventually enable a healthier environment for students.

The first session will have Dr. Rati Chandna, Leadership transformation Coach addressing the importance of work-life balance in the new normal on December 2nd, 5.30 pm to 6.30 pm. The second session will be conducted by Ms. K. Helen, Counselor on transitioning to adolescence and the third session will be conducted by Mr. Faheem Sait,  Training Consultant on Smart Time Management tools for teachers.

Registration to the webinar is free and will be hosted on Practically’s Youtube channel

“The Learning Lobby is a brilliant initiative by Practically. Their dedication to the overall well-being of teachers, parents, and students is extremely noteworthy. I believe that a healthy work-life balance is a need of the hour especially for teachers. The ever evolving education space can be demanding and it is essential to follow best practices now more than ever. I am glad to be associated with Practically and I look at this opportunity as a great platform to benefit teachers and society in general,” commented Dr. Rati Chandna, Leadership transformation Coach.

The initiative will have active participation from the industry with a Q&A session with attendees from across the country. All sessions will be archived and can be accessed from any part of the world.

Time is a critical factor in an emergency and the 24X7 ERS would help ensure that medical aid and support can be easily accessed during the critical minutes of the ‘golden hour’ helping to prevent death and disability.

 

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­With this initiative we want to ensure that nothing should stand between a patient facing an emergency and timely treatment, we have decided to provide free emergency ambulance services within the city limits of Navi Mumbai. With this, patients can dial 1066 and be assured of rapid transport to Apollo Hospitals’ emergency for definitive care, in most cases within the ‘golden hour’. The importance of the term ‘‘golden hour’’ is well-known with morbidity and mortality being affected if care of seriously ill or trauma patients is not instituted within the first hour after injury.

We hope that this facility will help patients’ access treatment within the golden hour and save many lives!” said Apollo Hospital Representative

This method will help the hospital staff prepare to receive the patient and begin treatment with no delays, and prepare concerned departments and facilities such as the cath lab, operating theatre, ICUs to give the required medical aid to the patient.

 

The GPRS enabled tracking will also give the Apollo emergency team an accurate time of arrival of the patient so they can plan the steps to save the patient following arrival. The Apollo emergency response protocol ensures to stabilize a majority of emergency cases in a time critical manner, matching with the international benchmarks for golden hour management.

November 2021, Mumbai: Your skin deserves to look and feel fresh not just in the morning but throughout the day.

This latest range of moisturizer and serum is powered by “collagen peptide” that deeply penetrates to improve the skin resilience and hydrates it for a plump and bouncy look making it the perfect go-to skincare ingredient for the entire day.

 

Modern-day women are working around the clock, managing their professional and personal lives and taking up new challenges every day. This change in lifestyle exposes them to a variety of external and internal stressors like pollution, UV rays and physiological stress that cause skin cell damage and loss of collagen – the very skin building blocks that restores/replaces dead skin cells. Moreover, based on a recent skincare study it was found that our skin can age up to 8 years in a single day if we do not provide the nourishment it needs. To tackle these rising skincare issues, OLAY India has launched the al new Collagen Peptide 24 making it the gold standard of plump and bouncy skin that keeps it going all day.

 

Made using a blend of new-age technology, OLAY Regenerist Collagen Peptide 24 stimulates collagen production as it works like a naturally occurring collagen and boosts better skin penetration using Bio-available Technology with much shorter chains of amino acids than collagen. Specifically formulated with tried-and-true ingredients, this new moisturizer will transform the look of your skin as it has:

·        Collagen Peptide (Pal-KTTKS) that helps the skin look firmer

·        Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) that helps the skin retain moisture and plumpness to better resist the daily stresses that would rob our skin of its glow while helping with surface cell regeneration for a healthy and hydrated result

·        Glycerin that helps the skin attract and retain moisture so it can stay firm and hydrated all day long

 

Talking about the latest launch of OLAY Regenerist Collagen Peptide 24, Rohini Venkateswaran, Vice President- Skin & Personal Care, India said, “We at Olay India have always strived to work towards the right blend of technology and skincare elements that cater to the modern-day women in their evolved lifestyle choices. With skincare trends galore, we found that having plump and bouncy skin all day long is the ultimate test/ result to determine what actually healthy skin is. Collagen plays an important role for our skin especially in strengthening it and research also shows that collagen decreases by 1% every year starting in our 20s, particularly accelerated by various stressors. Our latest innovation is a powerful and fragrance-free face moisturizer that does not compromise on a woman’s skin or her hectic schedule. It is the perfect go-to skincare ingredient with anti-aging properties that nurtures it throughout the day making it a healthy and an essential ‘food for the skin’.”

 

OLAY’s latest range encourages us to make more informed choices as the new range is completely free from harmful ingredients like parabens, phthalates, synthetic dyes, fragrance, and mineral oil. This lightweight formula absorbs quickly, giving you 24 hours of hydration without a sticky, greasy or heavy feeling and results in 4X plumpness with 15%+ improved skin elasticity after just 4 days.

 

Stand up for ingredients you believe in and stand firm with your skin with OLAY Regenerist Collagen Peptide 24!

 

Olay Collagen Peptide 24 cream and serum is each priced at Price- 1999 INR respectively. It is available on all leading ecommerce platforms and major offline store.
