On the 5th of September 2024, the Post Graduate Department of Commerce, in collaboration with the Students’ Council, organized a Gurukul Activity to celebrate Teachers’ Day at VVM’S Shree Damodar College of Commerce and Economics. This activity was scheduled between 11:30 am to 12:30 pm in Classroom T-303. This event allowed M.Com Part-II students to step into the role of educators for a day, leading a series of interactive activities for their M.Com Part-I counterparts. The primary objective of this initiative was to foster a sense of connection and camaraderie between the two classes while encouraging participation and engagement from the first-year students.
A notable highlight of the event was the Dub Share Arts game, which added an element of fun and creativity. In this game, students selected a movie title from a random draw, and one participant would act out a scene from the chosen film while the rest of the group tried to guess the title. This activity not only provided entertainment but also created an engaging and lively atmosphere, encouraging bonding among the students.
A total of 48 students (22 Male, 26 Female) from M.Com Part-I and Part-II participated enthusiastically, with the seniors guiding and motivating their juniors throughout the event. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with M.Com Part-I students appreciating the opportunity to interact with their seniors in an enjoyable setting.
Expected Outcomes of the Activity:
The Gurukul Activity effectively facilitated the integration of M.Com Part-I and Part-II students, fostering an environment that encouraged first-year students to engage more confidently in future activities. Furthermore, it provided an opportunity for senior students to connect and collaborate with their juniors in a relaxed and enjoyable setting. This enhanced interaction is anticipated to promote ongoing communication and mentorship between the two cohorts, ultimately enriching the academic experience for all participants.
