Get Set GO

The concepts of Haritha Haaram, Patriotism and Swacch IARE caught the minds of the youngsters who come up with colorful presentations supported by hearty explanation. The idea is to catch them young and to some extent it definitely matched the occasion. Interestingly, girls were more in number and explained their concepts with great zeal.

Ajay, a student from CSE branch made an interesting poster on Swacch IARE. The young minds needed just a push from the right direction and pat comes the flow of creation. Here is his poster. How good our surroundings feel if we could keep them clean...
Cleanliness is an 'in' thing, we can't impose it on others. So let's feel it and Do it!

The students were asked to come in the attires of the colors of our national flag. Interestingly many had come obliging our request. Even the faculty opted for the same. And a flow of pics to freeze the moment happened. :)

Thematic presentation is not a new concept. It always helps to channel the creativity and gains the spirit of participation. The program went on with presentations and a bit of patriotic songs. Though a bit hesitant in the beginning the staff and the students took to the spirit of Induction of professionalism that makes us a better individual first and evolve as a better professional.
The auditorium sessions had come to an end and
Classes to begin from today. ON the mark... GET set GO  :)

Three cheers to Vocabulary

Vocabulary

This term is synonymous with the casual expression - word bank. This includes the number of words we know and use during the casual or formal interactions determine our fluency related to a foreign language such as English. 

In general the learning capacity of words or adding new words to our word bank would be higher in our childhood. It decreases as we move on to teens and falls by the time we reach our twenties. By twenty five we would stop adding new words. Thus it shows a falling trend in words for interesting communication

.

This leads to some personality flaws. Firstly, it limits our methods of expression. Secondly, repetitive use of words make us sound boring. Thirdly, this stands as a flaw for our fluency of the language.
Finally, language wise, the person suffers inferiority complex.

Here to root words make their presence felt strongly. Knowing the root of a word helps us to retain the memory of words and establish higher levels of vocabulary. Most words in English are based on the root words taken from Greek and Latin. If we take the word 'Vocabulary' - it has the root word 'voc' - means word or name. This Latin root word is present even in words such as 'advocacy' or 'vocal'. This makes things easy for us to learn new words. Keep a note of the root word and its meaning so that the vocabulary grows in spite of the count of the numbers added to our age.

So, why not opt for some methods to add some words to the existing ones and feel the new energy of speaking better, and expressing better.
