Road Safety is so very important. The government has taken initiation to create lot of awareness among the public to follow the Rules and Regulations about the transport. In this regard our students Madhu and Vishwas presented a paper on ROAD SAFETY WEEK. They spoke about why we need to follow the traffic rules, if violated whats the effect, statistical report on road accidents across the country, state and the region. With this the students wanted to have interaction session in the class and that happened with the speakers and Teacher in-charge. It was wonderful session. With this session itself I could explored the speaking skills and the interest of the students. Hence thought of many more academic activities in order to promote learning more easy and enthusiastic. 

I reported to department of Sociology @ GFGC, Chikkaballapura in January 2019, on deputation from GFGC, Yelahanka.

This is my first academic activity with new set of students from final year BA. Roja and Madhu presented their thoughts and views on CANCER on the occasion of WORLD CANCER DAY. It was indeed a big challenge in the beginning to motivate them. But they were keen in learning in new way, obviously this they thought a very good platform for their ORATORY SKILLS to be developed. Both presented their best of knowledge about the disease cancer. The statistics about the disease, root cause of it, socio-economic reasons behind it, rehabilitation for the diseased etc.
