Brief:

The session was held in the Lecture Theatre and conducted by Ms. Nidhi Bandaru, a certified life coach. It took place on 16 ^th October 2024 from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM for V semester students.

Ms. Nidhi Bandaru began by engaging the students with interactive activities emphasizing teamwork, creativity, and communication.

The first activity, Body Yoga, divided the students into teams of six. Each team member was required to write three letters – two on their hands and one on a leg. Then She offered words with 5,6,7 and 8-letter words, the teams had to stretch their hands and legs to form the words. The team that formed the word first was declared the winner.

Next was the Team Drawing activity. Each team of four was given a paper divided into 4 sections. Team members took turns rotating the paper and drawing in each other’s sections. The creativity and teamwork displayed in this activity were outstanding, with each team presenting unique and imaginative drawings.

The final activity was the handshake creation with a clause of having minimum 12-steps in the handshake, where pairs of students from each team competed to achieve the longest handshake. The winning pair displayed excellent coordination and energy.

The session was highly engaging and insightful, allowing students to learn through hands-on activities. By the end, everyone had developed a stronger sense of teamwork, creativity, communication, and active listening.
