Students are the center of everything we do at Pearl. Hence, to make sure that our students don’t miss out on their practical lab experience, we are equipping our students with customized kits for them to set up labs or studios in their homes for practical learning.
We are the only creative institute to take this initiative to ensure students don’t compromise on their learning experience even amid the pandemic.
Practical learning and hands-on experiences are an integral part of our curriculum and can make a world of difference for any student. They need tools and equipment to shape their ideas and breathe life into their imagination.
With COVID-19 leading to the shutdown of campuses along with facilities like studios and labs, the students, especially the freshers, would have been at a loss without a practical understanding of concepts and subjects that are new to them. As a solution to this problem, Pearl Academy came up with the idea of home studios.These home studio kits, developed in consultation with the academic team, vary as per the program and curriculum requirements to include Wacom tablets, sewing machines, fashion mannequins/ mini dress forms, drafting boards, hand-knitting devices, block-printing kits, Arduino kits, software stacks, sketching kits and more.
Besides this, students have access to full Adobe Creative Suite, Business of Fashion, Coursera, WGSN and digital library to supplement the classroom lectures.
This is us doing a little celebratory dance seeing our students with their home kits! It has been so exciting to see our students set up their home labs in absolutely creative and unique ways. We’re glad to know how much our Pearlites are enjoying the experience of working with their custom made kits and creating so many incredible things already! As you get busy unleashing your creativity at home, don’t forget to share your stories so that we too can join in on the fun! Tag us using #PearlHomeStudio.
The kit is tailor made according to the course of the student. Here are a list of tools, equipment and software provided by Pearl Academy to ensure learning doesn’t stop for our students.
