Aided Learning

Knowledge or learning is not something to be limited to books and examinations. The more you crave to play with it, the more interesting and valuable it becomes.
We were to create a model in relation to our optional subject and I decided to try something that I can ask my students to do as well once I get to teaching. The one difficulty I faced during my school phase was this struggle in remembering formulas (particularly math). The solution I had figured then was to have it before my eyes i.e, having it stuck on the walls of my room. Since that seemed to be quite outdated, I decided to try out making a lamp shade as it seemed less boring than being stuck on a wall. So here's my idea in flesh..

Capacity Building Programme

As a part of our paper Developmental Perspectives of the Learner (Psychology); we were to have a capacity building programme. As a class, we decided to have presentations on the process of how we have developed our talents through the years. I made a presentation on paintings; glass painting and acrylic painting both the knowledge of which I had acquired by watching online tutorials. I had spoken on the aspect of 'improvisation' and the varied dimensions it provides in the task of development.

Get Creative!

All of us, the students pursuing the course of Bachelor of Education is indeed indebted to the authorities who has drafted our curriculum giving optimum importance to the honing of creative skills. Only a creative teacher, can give the best of learning experiences to their students catering to their tastes and interests. 
Among us, three student teachers were selected to take sessions on card making, glass painting and fabric painting as prescribed in our curriculum as a part of Art Education. One of our seniors Sr. Delna CMC, took the session on card making, Joshna Chandran on fabric painting and myself on glass painting. The three of us gave the initial impetus to our classmates and then gave them the opportunity to explore on their creative skills, The results were spectacular!

School Induction Progam

October 14th to 18th was indeed that one week with the best of moments of B.Ed life. We were sent to schools for school induction program so as to get familiarized with the school environment. We were to collect historic background of the school, have an idea of the various facilities provided in the school, observe two sessions and take three sessions both in our concerned subject. Four of my friends and myself were assigned as trainee teachers to Christ Nagar Senior Secondary School, Thiruvallom. We were indeed intrigued by the difficulties of classroom management but it all paid off well as we were swayed positively by the wonderful challenges we confronted with.
