Time Management

Time management: While youngsters these days are juggling a lot of differentthings in their lives these days at a very early age, most of them get lost in theprocess of getting their priorities right and managing time well. This causes a lot ofproblems and we have seen that even though students have been doing well intheir school education they lose out on opportunities of competitive exams orpursuing a different path in field of sports, art etc. Thus proper management of timeis critical for their success in life.

Case Study MethodologyCase study methodology: During school education we have seen thatstudents learn that for every problem there is one solution but it is veryimportant for them to learn that in real life there are various perspectives toa problem; they will have various choices for any decision and that theyneed to chose the right one that creates a win-win situation. The case studymethodology will be used to give them an exposure of the situations theymay come across and decisions that they will need to make.

Page 17: Discover Life

GD/Interview preparation: After school, there are various graduation programthat conduct GD/Interview process as selection criteria. For a student, who hasnever been exposed to this process, it is very difficult to do well in thisselection criteria. Thus the students need proper exposure and training forgroup discussions and interviews.

Pubic Speaking: One of the biggest human fear. It has been commonlyobserved that only a few students are effective public speakers in their schooldays. Beyond school life, public speaking becomes very important foryoungsters and many times it is one of the differentiating factors betweensuccess and failure whether it is selection procedures or job promotions.
