SCE based LIFE SKIL Management

                 Life skills-Commandments to Remember

I read, I forget, I discuss, I remember, I do, I inculcate.

1. Life skills are essentially those abilities that help promote overall wellbeing and      competence in young people as they face the realities of life.
 

2. Life skills are the beginning of wisdom which focuses on behaviour change or
developmental approach designed to address a balance of three areas- knowledge, attitude and skills.
 

3. Life skills enable individuals to translate knowledge, attitude and values into actual abilitiesi. e. what to do and how to do it, given the scope and opportunity to do so.
 

4. Life skills however are not a panacea of “how to do abilities” as they are not the only factors that affect behavour. There are many factors such as social support, culture and
environment that affect motivation and ability to behave in positive ways.
 

5. Effective acquisition and application of Life Skills can influence the way one feels about others, ourselves and will equally influence the way we are perceived by others. It contributes to perception of self confidence and self esteem.
 

6. Life skills for psychosocial competence needs to be distinguished from other important skills that young people will acquire as they grow up such as reading, numbers, technical and livelihood skills.
 

7. Life skills education involves a dynamic teaching process. The methods used to facilitate this active involvement includes working in small groups and pairs, brainstorming, role plays, games and debates.
“We are guilty of many errors and many faults, but our worst crime is abandoning
the children, neglecting the foundation of life. Many of the things we need, can wait.
The children cannot. Right now is the time his bones are being formed, his blood is
being made and his senses are being developed to him we cannot answer
“Tomorrow”. His name is “Today”.
 

8. We all use Life Skills in different situations such as:
a) To negotiate effectively at home, school or work place, we need to have thinking skills as well as social skills
b) When faced with difficult situations we tend to think critically , to analyze all the pros and cons of the situation to think out of box to find a solution to seemingly difficult problems.
 

9. Many life skills are required to manage a particular situation effectively. In a way, various Life Skills work best in conjunction. In fact, the appropriate combination of Life Skills in a given moment is an art.
 

10. Children learn their Life Skills from parents, teachers and significant others who act as their role model. They gradually learn to use a particular skill effectively in diverse situation to cope with challenges of life.

SCE based The importance of values in our life

What is value?

A value is a belief, a mission, or a philosophy that is meaningful. Whether we are consciously aware of them or not, every individual has a core set of personal values. Values can range from the commonplace, such as the belief in hard work and punctuality, to the more psychological, such as self-reliance, concern for others, and harmony of purpose.

When we examine the lives of famous people, we often see how personal values guided them, propelling them to the top of their fields. For example, one actor was motivated by his commitment to social justice, which led to important acting roles related to that value that made him world famous. Likewise, a well-known business CEO was motivated by the personal value that technology should be easy to use, which caused his company to spawn a technology revolution. Whatever one's values, when we take them to heart and implement them in the smallest details of our lives, great accomplishment and success are sure to follow. 

Values are psychological objects. Although we cannot see or touch them, they are every bit as real as any physical object. People may dedicate their entire lives or even give up their lives to pursue their values, as so many loyal patriots have done fighting for values of freedom, equality and human rights during the past two centuries.

We all have values that determine our decisions and guide our lives. Those who value their individuality take responsibility, are self-reliant and act with self-respect. Those who value truthfulness cannot bring themselves to tell a lie. Those who value family or friendship sacrifice their personal interests for the good of others. Those who value goodness cannot bring themselves to do something they know is wrong. We express values in our relations with other people when we are loyal, reliable, honest, generous, trusting, trustworthy, feel a sense of responsibility for family, friends, co-workers, our organization, community or country. On a more physical level, we may place great value on cleanliness, punctuality, orderliness, accuracy, quality, and physical perfection in whatever we do. 

We can energize our lives by making the full effort to implement the values we subscribe to. Once we identify values that are meaningful to us, we can develop strategies to implement them. When we make the determined effort to implement those strategies, good fortune is sure to follow -- in the form of new opportunities, new sources of revenue and income, and other forms of material and psychological benefit. We may even notice that as we implement values, we experiences instances of "life response" -- where good fortune suddenly comes to us from seemingly out of nowhere, defying our normal perceptions of what is logical and possible.

SCE baseed Assessments

What is the difference between formative and summative assessment?

Formative assessment

The goal of formative assessment is to monitor student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning. More specifically, formative assessments:

• help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and target areas that need work
• help faculty recognize where students are struggling and address problems immediately

Formative assessments are generally low stakes, which means that they have low or no point value. Examples of formative assessments include asking students to:

• draw a concept map in class to represent their understanding of a topic
• submit one or two sentences identifying the main point of a lecture
• turn in a research proposal for early feedback

Summative assessment

The goal of summative assessment is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark.

Summative assessments are often high stakes, which means that they have a high point value. Examples of summative assessments include:

• a midterm exam
• a final project
• a paper
• a senior recital

Information from summative assessments can be used formatively when students or faculty use it to guide their efforts and activities in subsequent courses.

Seven Wonders of the World

A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present "Seven Wonders of the
World."
Though there were some disagreements, the following received the most votes:
 

Egypt's Great Pyramids
Taj Mahal
Grand Canyon
Panama Canal
Empire State Building
St. Peter's Basilica
China's Great Wall
 

While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student had not finished her paper yet. So
she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't
quite make up my mind because there were so many." The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you
have, and maybe we can help."
The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the 'Seven Wonders of the World' are:
To see,

 "Yes, a little. I couldn't
quite make up my mind because there were so many." The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you
have, and maybe we can help."
The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the 'Seven Wonders of the World' are:

To see
To hear
To touch
To taste
To feel
To laugh
and to love
 

The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple and
ordinary; and that we take for granted are truly wondrous! A gentle reminder -- that the most
precious things in life cannot be built by hand or bought by man.

"I BELIEVE IN ME"

Friends, I believe in "I BELIEVE IN ME"  મને મારામાં વિશ્વાસ છે. દરેક વ્યક્તિ માં પોતાની આંતરિક શક્તિ હોય છે જે તેને સફળ બનાવે છે.  પોતાની શક્તિઓ ને ઓળખી તેને મેનેજ કરતા શીખો, તેનો ઉપયોગ કરતા શીખો. સફળતા તમારી પાછળ દોડશે.  અસ્તુ।
