STRATEGY#1

SOLUTION

I Explored every nook and corner of my campus and found everything to be perfect from infrastructure to faculty but the main problem I found was the gap between the theoretical and practical knowledge among the students. All that was being taught to them was not being put into practical use and hence students did not understand most of the important information.

Another perspective involved students who had the zeal to build something,but didn't have the necessary resources and all their ideas were just vaguely floating in their mind. To bridge this gap among the practical and theoretical knowledge I came up with a brilliant solution in the form of an activity room that was well applauded by my peers.through this I wanted all the children to put their ideas to practical use and turn their dreams into reality.

HOW DID I BUILD MY PROTOTYPE

As I mentioned earlier my idea of the activity room was very inviting for all the students. Let me give you a list of the things that I included in my activity room

1.Moulding clay

2.Oiling Can

3.Magnifying glass

4.A cutter blade(to cut iron)

5.Mechanix set

6.Charts both white and coloured

7.Decorative Ribbons

8.Sketch pens

9.Writing Pads

10.White A4 papers

11.Colour paper or scrap books

12.White boards

13.Markers

14.Set squares

15.protractors(180 and 360 degrees)

16.Scissors (both plain and fancy)

17.Blade

18.Knives and knife sharpener

19.Bell pins

20.Board ins

21.Binder clips

22.paper clips

23.Straws

24.rubber bands

25.Erasers

26.Pencil Sharpeners

27.Sewing Kit

28.Decorative items(eg:beads and gift wraps)

29.Post-it’s

30.Pens

31.Pencils

32.Gum Tapes

33.Gum

34.Stapler and stapler pins

35.Hammer

36.Screwdrivers

37.Cutting Pliers

38.Paintbrush

39.Wax cryons

40.Chalk Pieces(white and coloured)

41.Scales

42.Cling Film

43.Aluminium Foil

44.Measuring tapes

45.Switch

46.Hose pipe

47.Playing Cards

48.Wires

I put all these things into a room. Apart from to inspire the children i put up inspirational quotes,that i wrote on a chart. I had the idea that whenever my peers are struck somewhere they will look up from their work, read a motivational quote and strive harder to make what they wanted to make.

In My activity room I also arranged a projector and a screen so that if the students were making the project in a team, the team leader could display his ideas in the form of ppt and his colleagues could follow according to im or give him any suggestions if they wanted to.

Comments And Suggestions on My prototype

I showed my activity room to many students and faculty. All of them applauded my effort and I felt my idea was a huge success. The Head of the department of my branch(Computer Science) was very impressed with my idea and congratulated and appreciated me on thin novel thought. All the faculty also responded very positively to my idea.

All the students were excited about the idea of an activity room coming up in our campus where they could put their thoughts into action.Some of them were unstoppable as they started exploring and testing the things. And started thinking of what to make and from what.

One of my fellow students named Kiranmai is very fond of mechanix, and the very world of building something fascinates her.She was glad at the site of mechanix set and couldn't wait to fidget with it.she made a prototype of a mechanical windmill.once she was done she asked me to arrange for a dynamo the next time so that she could run it on electricity.hey joy knew no bounce and seeing her happy i was also glad that my prototype of an activity room had brought out her passion for mechanix.

Similarly two of my friends Priyanka and Narendra picked up straws to make something out of it.they thought for a long time but couldn’t come up with what to make. They came to me and asked me for a suggestion but i couldn’t think of anything instantly. Three of us discusse but couldnt come up with an idea.One of my faculty Vandana mam intervened and suggested me to provide WIFI enabled laptops or a system so that stuents who want to make somthing but are ot sure what to make can get ideas from the internet.
