Sports Meet 2022

 Finally, the day is here. We've been scheduling the sports meet for quite some meet. It had to be postponed due to unexpected rains and finally, it was conducted on Sep 12 and 13 soon after the Onam holidays. We had shotput, javelin throw, 50m, 100 m etc. The involvement and participation in the second years were a little low compared to the first years. Events like shot put, javelin throw, 50 m race etc had good participation. The selection of students for the finals of each event was done on the first day. The finals followed by prize distribution were done on the second day. I was supposed to run the100m race but had to pull out due to previous complications in my leg injury. But I got to participate in the march past which was totally unexpected. By the end of the day, we were dead tired from the scorching sun, but it was all worth it.

The Story of Probability

 Why was the concept of probability invented? This is the question we are going to answer through this post. Probability was discovered to answer a gambling problem. The original problem is a bit complicated but the simplified version goes like this.  Suppose two persons, A and B are playing a game of coin toss where the person who gets their toss thrice first wins a pot of gold. If the score is 2-1 and the game has to be stopped due to some unforeseeable reasons then how would the pot of gold be divided?  By logic, since A is leading with 2 points and B only has 1 point, the pot can be divided in the ratio of 2:1 . This seems like a good argument but this fails when the score is 0-1. In this case, it seems unfair to give the pot of gold to B based on the previous argument when A may have a chance to win in the upcoming tosses. But if one were to calculate the probability of winning the game of the two players, then it would give us a foolproof explanation as to how to divide the

Online International Conference

2nd March 2022- 5th March 2022 I had to take a week-long leave from college due to a medical issue. But I'm back to college and ready for classes. But this week we had our international conference for three days which was held completely online. We had several distinguished speakers and paper presentation competitions with good participation from students from within and outside the college. It was conducted via Zoom and just as how an offline conference would work, the meeting was divided into several virtual rooms where each optional class was assigned for each room. Each session was assigned for each faculty and each faculty had a group of students to conduct the seminar. The whole program was well planned and executed without any time lag.

Back to Campus!

 Didn't know I would be able to say that 👆 in a long time. We had new timings (9.30-15.20) for the week, which I kinda like better than the old one (just because of the breaks).  This week in Joju sir's class we discussed about the 'Indicators of a Good Class' and had a small introduction to research. In Maya ma'am's class we went through some of the problems with pre-primary education in India. We began Giby ma'am's class with a congratulatory dance for the newly engaged and newly weds. Later we learnt about the types of motivation. In optional cla sses we had our seminar presentations and I must say with each seminar the Ppt slides are becoming more creative. Finally, in this week's Ancy ma'am's class I got back the feeling of sitting in a Math class. We did statistics problems throughout the week. Exams are approaching, submission deadlines are here and I'm in the middle of it all, unable to decide where to begin.
