Internship and sharing its practical aspects

                 

 "Share your knowledge , It's a way to achieve immortality."                                                                                                              " It is not what you know, but who you know".  

Whenever we listen the term 'Internship', develop either positive or maximum time negative attitude. But it is not true because that time only learning occurs by trial and error to the maximum. Going to college is a critical step, but one can easily enhance his/her classroom learning by gaining  real world experience through 'Internship'. In addition to gaining to great experience to complete classroom learning Internship allow one's to beef up ones portfolio.

Actually I was nervous and stressed because the next day of reaching to university has been decided for Internship. Accordingly I have started my journey with pain and tired health. After reaching to college  it was a cool moment for me because whatever I was expected it was totally opposite and quite interesting. Four of my friends already visited the college the day before and taught them about edmodo and the concept of ''childhood and adolescence and Growth and Development "with the method of team teaching. The day we started with creating of students account in Edmodo those who are not having and creation of a wiki page. All my friends jointly helped student teacher How to create a wiki page, the benefit, edmodo and its importance with a proper demonstration and calling few students to create that time itself. So, the day which was gone through like that. The day itself was quite interesting for me because we are getting a chance to teach them totally new things and student teachers are actively learning all these. The day itself most of them have entered into edmodo platform and few of them created wiki page. The day itself I have enjoyed and learned certain new things by doubts asked by the student teacher. 

Next day was quite more interesting because of team teaching and students curiosity of learning. In morning session we started with wiki page followed by e-portfolio. During that time I have observed the curiosity of the future teachers because that session itself more then 5 student teachers have entered. The astonishing effort of the students are remarkable. The afternoon session was started with blogger, how to create one's own blog. That is followed by team teaching by me, Jasmin, Radhika and Payal. For that I have used ppt, video to explain the concept of multiple Intelligences by following a particular teaching strategy (Gagne's nine steps of instruction). The time of team teaching I have observed the kind of positiveness, curiosity, eagerness etc among the learner and that approach is good to teach a classroom with pre- planned way with the help of  nine steps of instruction.

Last day, it was more pleasurable because student teacher are divided into groups to help them to cope up with individual problems. That time all of them made an attempt to create a blog and e portfolio. Few girls also stated their experiences of learning new information in their blogs. Afternoon session was started with teaching with the help of prezi a new approach of presentation by Durai, Shanti, Wasim and Dhanno. Finally, we said them to write their observation and send it to edmodo. 

Wowww..within a three days of internship many new learning had occurred. I have enjoyed thoroughly each and every moment of Internship from the morning assembly to the end of the class. The morning assembly was followed by various activities i.e; prayer song, Thirukkural, taking questions, news ( Tamil, English and cricket), today's thought, a story of morality and national anthem. In this respect I can remember, "The only thing to do with a good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself". So, whatever has been advised I did it accordingly with inner desire to do. 

A sincere thanks for the gratefulness of the Principal of the Vivekananda college of Education, teachers for being  so cooperative and giving us the space to complete our task fruitfully, the students without their support the journey would not be considered as success. During Internship only I have enjoyed smart classroom that is really a good experience earlier it was a theoretical aspect for me. Learning is possible every where- "Never stop learning because life never stops teaching". A teacher who establishes rapport with thought, become one with them, learns more from them than he teaches them- is true for my case. I will carry the memories and experiences of Internship for future. Finally, thanks to day scholars for bringing such healthy foods and special thanks to Akka, jii Radhika, and sweat Pugazh. A sincere gratitude to our ma'am for making all these possible with her guidance and instruction. As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them.
