Social Skills : Self-Awareness & Self-Esteem Workshop
A Social Skills and Self-Awareness Wokshop was conducted in the Vidyalaya on the 20th of April,2024 By Dr. Vidyarani Gurumayum for the students of Class 10 & 12. Social Skills are interpersonal skills that are necessary for successful communications and social interactions.
It was a fun filled , activity based workshop where our students learn to discover and appreciate oneself. There was an ice breaking session through a fun game called "Pass the Ball". It's a very important step in the personality development of a child to open up and express themselves. This activity taught them to drop their inhibitions and interact more with their groups and peers.
There was an audio visual session to hone and improve the listening skills. It is very important to have good listening skills to communicate properly and effectively.
There were group activities to practice and groom comunication skills through group interactions. The students also had a self-awareness assessment activity where they get to understand self, their physical characteristics,social characteristics and innner characteristics and introspect their strengths and weaknesses. This helps them to discover oneself and identify the areas to work and improve on.
Social skills are very important in every stages of life - be it looking for a job , or in the workplace with colleagues , dealing and interacting with a client or socializing with friends and family. Man is a social animal and everyone loves to be around a sociable , friendly person. So these skills are very important to have a good civilized society. It was overall a good effective session.
