Title of the Practice: Blood Donation Camp
Objectives:
1) To emphasize the importance of blood donation.
2) To motivate students to do community service.
3) To underline the benefits of blood donation.
4) To keep humanity awake and alive.
The Context
Maharashtra is the most progressive in the
country in the blood donation movement. Maharashtra State Blood Transfusion
Council, Mumbai was established on January 22, 1997. The true blood revolution
then started in the state. In the last twenty-five years, the state of
Maharashtra has created a blood revolution in blood donation by making
systematic efforts. The concept of “hundred percent” voluntary blood donation was defined as
per the central policy. A total of 3023 registered blood banks have collected
11.45 million blood bags in India till date. India needs 1 crore blood units
every year. In this, 85 percent of blood collection is in the form of voluntary
blood donation. The need of the hour is to increase regular blood donors along
with new blood donors. For this, conscious citizens need to take initiative.
Our college is striving for this purpose.
The Practice
The awareness
about Blood Donation is spread through NCC and NSS committees.
The hoardings are displayed in the campus to spread this awareness.
Once in a year the college undertakes Blood Donation camp.
Evidence of Success
· Awareness among
students is spread about the blood donation.
· Humanitarian aspect of the students
comes at the front through the programs of blood donation.
· Maximum students donate blood when
the camps are organized in the college by NSS and NCC committees.
· Students understood that one man's
blood is useful to another needy human being.
· Students understood that there is no
substitute for human blood and blood donation is the only option before the
society.
· Students understand that donating
blood is a service to the common people. Hence it is considered as a
service to God.
· Students understand that the
accidental excess bleeding, plasmodia, anemia, blood cancer, postmortem,
hemorrhage and other serious diseases can lead to death if the patient does not
receive blood at the right time.
· The students realized that Human
being is the greatest creation of God.
Human life is God's gift. Human beings have tried to make their life healthy
and happy by doing many new experiments with the strength of their intellect.
Then also man is not been able to find a substitute for blood till date.
· Students also understood that there
is no harm in donating the blood.
Problems Encountered and Resources Required:
In the state of Maharashtra, about seven and a half
lakh bottles of blood are required for patients every year. 70 to 75 percent of
this requirement is met by alternative replacement blood donors or commercial
blood donors. Everyone doesn’t understand the need for voluntary blood donation
to serve the purpose. In the rural area like Patan tehsil, there are less
number of camps organized by other institutions to spread awareness about blood
donation. Hence, it becomes difficult to motivate all the students and their
families for blood donation.
Title of the Practice: Vainatey: Wall Paper
Presentation
Objectives:
1) To develop presentation skills among students.
2) To encourage students towards reading.
3) To cultivate interdisciplinary knowledge in students
4) To develop oratory skills among students.
The Context:
In today's fast-paced era new media have been
developed in the market which includes you tube videos, online books, audio
books etc. Now books can be heard in audio format. But when we read a book,
those words are imprinted in our mind, in our head. Concentration increases.
Reading is the act in which we come to know the word. The knowledge of where
and how to use that word also comes from reading. But today's young generation
is more addicted to watching you tube videos. Suppose a student has some query,
he immediately searches the internet and finds its answer. It does not
stimulate his thinking process. Students seem to neglect subjects to think
over. They want questions and answers. They don't want education. They want
degree. Further, they want jobs, not degrees. Such changing environment has
started affecting today's young generation. Keeping this context in mind,
“Vainatey: Wallpaper Presentation” activity has been conducted in our college
for last few years. Initially, students did not respond to it whole-heartedly.
But today, the students themselves have started preparing for Wallpaper
Presentation.
The Practice:
The committee of the Wallpaper informs all the Departments about the
schedule of the Wallpaper presentation through Notice. The Departments informs
the respective students through notice and suggests topics of wallpapers. The
presentation is conducted in front of the central library by students.
Evidence of Success 200
· This
small initiative of the college has the aim of building confidence in the
village students and improve their oratory skills.
· Students
from almost all the departments of the college participated in this activity.
·
The initiative also focuses on developing the reading abilities of the
students. Thus, this activity helps to preserve and promote reading culture.
·
By implementing this activity, confidence started building in the students and
they believed in themselves while expressing their thoughts outside the
classroom.
·
Students understood and got the knowledge of how to present a particular
subject in front of the audience.
·
Since the medium is wallpaper, the artistic approach has got developed in the
students as they adjust the content artistically.
·
As a result, our students began to participate in organizing events like
cultural programs on their own.
Problems Encountered and
Resources Required:
Our students belong to rural area. Hence, developing confidence
in them for presentation is the biggest challenge in front of us. In the modern
age of technology, students have become puppets in the hands of social media
and mobile. Hence, it becomes a Herculean task for a teacher to inculcate in
students habit of reading different text books and reference books so as to
prepare on the given subject.
