On the panel is Ashmi Sheth, an artist, author and art therapy student. The 25-year-old will share the potential of art therapy as a coping tool to aid students grappling with multiple psychological and cognitive difficulties as they deal with an isolated learning environment without the immediate support of peers and resources. A student herself, she narrates how 15 minutes of drawing a day helped organise, understand and track thoughts that were hard to verbally express.

“This discussion session will offer insights from the trenches, courtesy practitioners who have first-hand experience of implementing pandemic-era learning methods. Anyone who is interested in education will find the session worth their time,” concludes Dr Moitra.
