Back after a Quick Break

  Another week of online classes pass by. This week was free from programs and competitions😁😅.

 The week started with Joju sir's class on the qualities of a good evaluation and how one should be unbiased and give an objective evaluation of the paper irrespective of their emotional states. I think most of us have been a victim of improper evaluation at least once in our lifetimes. Then sir also gave a brief idea about the first work of the semester which is to develop a tool to evaluate a person's intelligence, mindfulness etc.

In Maya ma'am's class we discussed about 'Kanthalloor Saalai' one of the first universities of the South of India. Few network issues forced ma'am to cancel one of the classes. 

We learned about perception and sensation in Giby ma'am's class. Ma'am shared the story of the 'Professor and the Coffee Mug" to help us understand how perceptions can influence our thoughts.
In the optional hours we learned about Concept Attainment Model and were divided into groups to prepare a lesson plan using CAM.

Ancy ma'am is way ahead of everyone and has completed one unit in psychology. Usually ma'am asks us to switch on our video, but Uthara switched on her video voluntarily and motivated the rest of us to do the same. Ma'am was very delighted and must have even shed a happy tear.


Our exams are approaching but we don't know when it is to happen. I think everyone has started their preparations and I'm hoping that I'll be able to stick to my timetable.

Day 30 of Online Classes

 Today the day began with Joju sir's class and the physical science association continued with their seminar. We were introduced to the software 'Hot Potatoes', which can be used to make online quizzes. If I had known this earlier I would have used it for 'Mathletics'. The topic was handled by Ancy and Gayathri of Physical science association and they did a great job. Later we had Ancy ma'am's class where we discussed about social change. Ma'am made us switch on our cameras to take a group photo. It felt good too see many faces after a long time.

A New Phase

 This week marked the beginning of teaching practice. St Mary's, Pattom is the school assigned for me. It's going to be a great opportunity and experience for all of us.The internship was supposed to start on 5th January but it was delayed by a day due to an unexpected holiday.  6th Jan 2022, It was the first day of our internship and to be honest I was excited and nervous at the same time. I had the first hour at 9J1 which was utilised to show a video on 'Social Media and its Effects'. The video was shot and shown as a part of a government initiative to create awareness of the positive and negative effects of social media. I couldn't take a class, but I got to be the tech support for the teachers. This helped me get rid of that unnecessary stress. But I had another period at 9I1 and I used this period to get to know the students, their previous knowledge etc. and also brushed some of the previously taught topics. 7th Jan 2022, Today the second batch attended school...
