Individual work X Small Group Activity Significant impact on behaviour and learning

Individual Activity Small Group Activities

Individual self-interest; relationships remain undeveloped; shy and hesitating to give and receive feedback; learning pace is relatively slower; interaction is not extended to important areas such as PD & Soft Skills; pride / jealousy get encouraged, distancing the students.

Individual orientation gets backseat; relationships begin to develop; giving and receiving feedback becomes easy and natural; learning pace becomes faster; besides curricular, many other important aspects, particularly PD & Soft skills get properly focused; a sense of cooperation, trust, mutual interest & learning orientation get encouraged; adjustment processes are better appreciated; Team skills, Leadership qualities begin to get recognized; better appreciation of mutual dependency; overall development, in a substantial manner and to a sustainable extent becomes a distinct possibility.

SGA its ability to serve as a catalyst to relationship building leading to equipping you for the future Students begin to identify their strengths and gifts, along with weaknesses, if any, start recognizing the available opportunities much better, compare the same with what others have, and more particularly with what is expected of them, learn from others and be willing to allow others to learn from them ~ relationship building occurs as improved connections are made.

Intellectual Skills Communication Skills Interaction Skills Effective Performance

“ Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead

Personality Development implies identifying personal strengths so that the individual can be inspired and personal productivity begins to improve.

Personality Development must be encouraged so that the individual can be inspired to realize his maximum potential.

Without developing and improving Time management skills personal productivity cannot be improved.

Encourage your students to set goals and to have ROLE MODELS

Self – Analysis improves Self – Confidence

What are my strengths ? Which areas need improvement ? How do I develop these skills ?

Think ahead: Focus your attention on long-term goals. This means thinking through the long-term consequences of your actions.

The key goal of personal development is to strengthen CHARACTER.

Eliminate every addiction. drugs, alcohol, tobacco, gambling, and many other negative habits which can completely overtake your life.

Wishing alone will never get you to your desired destination. Only purposeful action will get you there.

Personal development involves learning, growing, setting goals, planning, and making wise use of resources such as time and money.

As a Teacher, we must accept the responsibility of encouraging our students to develop their Personality.
