“ Education is not the learning of Facts,
But the training of the mind to think.”
- Albert Einstein
From the moment you are born to the moment you die is a process of learning but the important thing is that you must train your mind to think critically.
LEARN - UNLEARN - RELEARN
is a way to find a new path which gives you new insight to live your life in a much better way. But one needs curiosity to learn something new, a strength and skill to put their view in front of others, a critical thinking ability and active participation to keep their mind up to date with what happens in and around, then and then one can develop the sense of how one can be a different from other and keep their mind to think critically.
In our Department every year students can get a chance to develop their ability to think and to speak through participating in DS. Daily Schedule is the tradition of our Department and we ( Nirali Makvana, Dhartee Makwana ) feel very lucky to get a chance to work as leaders. And yes how we can forget the Corona, which gave us a new chance to explore our abilities and skills on technology. In the beginning of the semester it was not possible to do the thing physically. So, we had done many special DS virtually and also streamed live on social media platforms like on Facebook and on YouTube. In between we also got a chance to organize many DS physically in which we learnt how to set up a Laptop and other things with the help of the ICT committee. We had done a total of 34 DS during the year including 11 special DS in Hybrid mode.
A consistent daily schedule and step-by-step routines gives a predictable day. Having a schedule which determines what your priorities are so that you can spend the right time on that day. Therefore, why do we have a Daily Schedule Committee as well as a daily Schedule everyday ? To answer the following question I would say to enhance our skills and to get knowledge of particular things we need a Daily Schedule. As what is the importance of various columns in the DS, that is described in below given details.
💡Thought for the day- It gives new insight to begin the day with fresh, exciting ideas along with the comprehensive lesson. Every individual has their new way to start their day in that way new thoughts can be more effective to start a day with positively.
📄Vocabulary Drill- It improves all areas of communication, listening, speaking, reading and writing. Helps to Expand a knowledge of words which provides unlimited access to new information.
📰News Reading- We have this important column in the Daily Schedule which provides a great sense of educational value and knowledge of all the latest news and events happening in the world. It carries information about politics, economy, entertainment, sports, business, industry, trade and commerce.
📖Poetry Recitation- Poetry is a unique language that combines and uses words to convey meaning and communicate ideas, feelings, sounds, gestures, signs, and symbols. It helps us understand and appreciate the world around us. Poetry's strength lies in its ability to shed a “sideways” light on the world.
📚 Regional Literature- It will help us to value our language and understand our culture. By learning & reading literary pieces from the regions, the power of the native tongue that intensifies the words and provides knowledge of the regions. Everyone always comes with different and innovative literary pieces.
Personal Presentation- Personal presentation is just as important as a skill or qualification. To overcome the lack of self-esteem and confidence of the students helps to convey their message effectively or fully utilize their skills and abilities because of the way they present themselves.
Photograph of the day- We always preserve the important events , things and people in our lives like Photography is a depiction of something with meaning. Photography is important because it allows people to see the world from different perspectives. Essentially, the purpose of photography is to communicate and document moments in time and also students can connect it with the various events to share their experiences.
🎼 Singing- Singing is a important part of our life which makes yourself happy and fit! improves your mood. · It is very effective as a stress reliever if we are not good at it . At least we like to listen to songs. Therefore students also can enhance their singing skills.
📢 Announcement- This column is for special announcements as well as to summarize a discussion or point out something that the instructor want to discuss with the students to make aware of certain events.
