The document outlines the goals of an envisioned teaching approach called "Wings Envision". It aims to (1) stimulate students' passion for learning, (2) foster a hunger for knowledge, and (3) teach topics that computers cannot handle like creativity, innovation, and human thought processes. It also wants students to appreciate engineering marvels, form a community to support innovation, and develop strong bonds between students.

1. I want to teach in a way so as to simulate the student’s passion for learning.
2. My aim is to start a famine for knowledge in a student’s mind. 3. Normally students are taught things which can be done better by computers or related equipment. But our focus is on things which cannot be done by computers i.e. computers cannot learn on their own, they don’t have their own thought process, they cannot be creative, they cannot innovate. 4. Students should understand the marvel that is engineering. When you are doing a simple thing like passing through the Mumbai-Pune expressway you should admire the beauty of civil engineering, when you see an airplane flying or a F1- race, you should understand the magic about mechanical engineering, and when you are using a cell phone you should know what dramatic changes telecom engineers have brought in the way we live. 5. We can form a community of Engineers who love what they are doing and can help each other -in innovating as well as with day-to-day technical problems coming during their job phase. 6. There should be a strong bond between the students studying at this institute. 7. In his biography Abdul. Kalam has mentioned that Indians were the first to develop the art of rocket science. There are very few engineers who know the technological expertise India has achieved.
