Then repeat this with the left hand, ensuring they grab a different person’s hand. 4. Check to make sure that everyone is holding the hands of two different people and they are not holding hands
with someone either side of them. 5. That they must now try to untangle themselves to form a circle without breaking the chain of hands. Allocate a

Details of Projects/Activities Effective Listening Activity Communication Game Balloon Activity listening skills
Before the start of the activity (These instructions will be given)
• The students will be given the flat balloons to blow up and tie the knot. • They will be instructed to protect their own balloon • The Instructor will give them only 1 min to save their balloons • Whosoever remains last with their balloons safe and intact he/she will win the activity
Learning from this game
During the activity of 1 min usually students tend to burst the balloons of others to protect their own. They were only
instructed to save their balloon but due to passive listening instead they start bursting balloons of team mates and create mess. The goal is not to burst any balloons of your fellow participants but just keep standing still with their own
balloon and by this whole class can be the winner.
Knowledge:
This activity teaches to be a mindful listener because if everybody listen carefully and imbibe this knowledge in
themselves they can be relieved from any suffering in near future.

Another learning from this activity based class:
When life becomes hard and uncertain, then listen to the voice of your inner consciousness to boost resilience and build
persistence.
Human Tic-Tac-Toe
• Line three rows of three chairs like a tic tac toe board. • Divide the group into two teams of nine students on each side, one is noughts and the other is crosses • Give them each numbers starting at one and so on, so that each team has one of each number. • Have a team on each side of the chairs. • Have someone or yourself call out a number. • The two people with that number race to the chairs and take a seat. It is a race between the each member of each
team to get a seat and make their X or O first. • Whichever one gets there first gets to stay • Keep calling numbers until a team lines up three people from their team in a row.
Learning:
God has bestowed upon everyone enormous opportunities to grow and evolve. It is our responsibility to recognize
them, grab them and then act on them sensibly. Keep that in mind to avoid missing opportunity’s knock. So go ahead,
grab the opportunity, step up to the challenges, hurdles and obstacles and add more meaning and value to life.
Protect the Self
In this activity 4 individual will participate and there can be multiple groups like this
• 2 person will be defender • 1 person will be attacker • 1 person will be protectee
How to begin this activity?
The two defenders and the protectee hold hands of each other and the attacker from outside has to touch the protectee
to win the game, simultaneously defenders defends him for about 2 minutes so that they can win the game.
Learning
There are no winners and losers in the game. The real teaching of this activity is that the protectee is your “Self” and the
defenders are considered to be meditation and good habits in your life and attacker is nothing but the problems
encountered. The problems can only be eliminated by making your defense system vigorous and powerful by regular
practice of meditation, concurrently when your defense is not strong problems can travel to the nerves.

that we can inculcate those feasible ideas in our teaching methodology
Video shall be of minimum 2 minutes.
Each student (individually or in groups of 2-3 students) will undertake a project where they will be working in the
external environment (like village community, MSMEs, NGOs, civil authorities etc.) on identified issues. They will work under the guidance of an assigned faculty member and will be assessed on the basis of how they are able to effectively
understand their relationship with the external environment. Students will have to prepare the schedule of interaction
with the identified external contacts and execute the assigned task keeping in mind the intended learning outcomes.
They will maintain a project diary/ register as per following format and this will be scrutinized by the faculty guide
