An activity called ‘Traffic Lights’ was conducted. It was a self-awareness activity-the student had to first introspect and later speak about their qualities which was then categorized under three colours-yellow, red and green. In the next activity, the students had to use adjectives and describe the person sitting next to them in three sentences. This was followed by two communication skills activities -one was a team event; wherein, the team had to sell a product and the other was an individual activity where the students had to sell themselves for the post of a marketing executive. To wrap up, Ms Nahar asked the students to sum up the entire session. This helped some students to overcome stage fright and eliminate fear of public speaking. The students recognized the importance of presentation and communication skills and they felt the training session was interactive and insightful. Rifha Mariame
