The subsequent days were spent within the college grounds. We had our first session at 10:30 AM. It was titled "E Times", and we gathered at the Karyavattam church for a digital awareness program.  The attendees were primarily middle-aged mothers who were struggling to keep up with modern technology and its features. Our task was to address some of these generational gaps. We explained the usage of various mobile applications and their functionalities in a concise and accessible manner, given the limited time available. After the "E Times" session, we visited Ammathottil and the nearby Gandhi Museum and Library in Thycaud. At Ammathottil, a special session had been arranged for us.
