Happenings in Class - 12th Feb

Greetings,

Today's class was a bit different from the rest of Communication Skills classes we have had this semester. Why ? Well, we had a class test today. We don't have tests in every class. 

Anyways, we were required to write a speech on the 4 years we spent at Amity, our experiences, memories. The word limit was 350-500 words. As a custom, the answer sheets were provided by the faculty. Along with the word limit, we had a time limit too, which was around 30-40 mins. This was more than enough for some of us.

After the test, it was time for the customary 'attendance' after which we were given assignments to be done in 5 days, starting tomorrow. The assignment is that all the students write a post on this very blog about our 4 year at Amity.

Apart from this, some people were assigned to write reviews about articles from the Global Times - our Amity Newspaper - and post them on the blog.

So readers, you are in for an outburst of posts that will begin soon. Stay Tuned !

Happenings in Class - 5th Feb

This post is essentially to let everyone know what happened in class today. Minutes of class, I should say. As usual class started in time, with sir talking about Public speaking. The talks started with types of fears in public speaking. Which essentially are of 6 types: Fear of Unknown, Fear of being Misunderstood, Fear of Audience, Fear of Oneself, Fear of Inaudibility and Fear of Physical..

Well, after that was the time for the traditional(all important)attendance. It was now time for a group discussion. The discussion was on which to topic to have a discussion on ! The discussion started in an unusual manner - started with everyone counting numbers which went on and on...

The discussion topics were Indian Cinema - From sense to nonsense, and Can values be inculcated by teaching. But finally things ended with the topic being values inculcate from Indian cinema. 

Anyways, that was what happened today, at the end of the class, I was asked to make the minutes of the class here. So here I am...

Have a great day ahead !!
