M.Ed. INTERNSHIP : Merging creativity and awareness

As part of their M.Ed. internship M.Ed. Students from the Government College of Teacher Education, Thyacud spend three days MTTC taking classes and creating projects on six important issues which included value education, life skills, women empowerment, gender equality, disaster management and human rights. 

In the value education class, we were divided into groups and asked to create posters related to the importance of value education. Taking ideas from the insightful presentation, we created a poster that depicted values as a "tree", the branches of which held up the world at one end and the roots of which transformed into the hands of a teacher reaching out to a child. Thus cementing the idea that teachers play an important role in imparting values to generations of children who will ultimately become responsible for utilizing them for the betterment of the world. In addition to being an informative and enlightening session, the poster making was really fun. Huddling together as a group, throwing ideas back and forth, finally getting to that "aha!" moment, having fun colouring and drawing, that fun synergy really brought out the best in all of us. It was definitely a memorable day!
