The Department Of Communicative English And Media Studies organised a Value Education class for Semester- 6 on the topic: “Respect your Parents” on 10th December 2022 under the supervision of Dr Tauseef Hassan, Head of the Department.

The session’s major lesson is that, respect is the basic human value and the best way to express gratitude towards  your parents is by treating them with respect.

The video showcased the reality of the society,  how the Younger generation has started taking their parents for granted and are not being grateful for the struggles they go through while providing a good life for their children.

Now a days children feel that their parents are bound to fulfil all there dreams but in reality parents are responsible for fulfilling there basic needs and making them capable enough that they can fulfill their needs on there own.

In the video we saw how a son started misbehaving with his father just because he was not able to give him money for his trip. But then his mother made him understand the importance of money and how his parents have been sacrificing to fulfil his needs. The son realizes his mistake and apologises to his father in the end.

The Department of Communicative English and Media Studies organised a value education class on September 16th, 2022. The facilitator Ms. Runa began the class by showing a video. The video demonstrated was, “Product cannot be greater than factory”. For the value education class of Semester I and Semester III, Moderators were Dr. Tauseef Hassan and Mr. Amitabh Ranjan.

 

There’s a saying that rings true for all parents: Having a child is like having your heart walk around outside your body.

With time, many things have changed including communication patterns and trends. This generational gap is faced by  parents as well as children. Due to which a lot of clashes happen, having a hard time understanding each other, not being able to have faith and thinking it’s better to not tell our folks and do things on our own.

The video was about the bond between a father and a daughter. We as children/ teenagers tend to think or rather believe that our parents do not understand us, they know nothing about us  and we can easily fool them and do whatever we want just because they put certain restrictions. On the contrary parents actually know about what his/ her child is upto.

 

Most of us don’t recognise the hurdles that parents face just to see a smile on our face everyday. Our folks do everything possible so that we do not have any trouble.

So, we as children should be more open to having conversations with our parents which’ll help bridge the gap and build trust in the relationship.

‘Design feature of language’ was the topic for the online quiz competition organised on Friday- 8th April, 2022 by Dr.Devina for the Department of Communicative English and Media Studies.

 

The online quiz competition was based on Linguistics. It contained five questions in total given in the Google forms. In this knowledge intellect of the participants for the topic was debriefed.The questions was based on sub topics like the person associated with design feature, Semanticity, metalanguage, number of design feature etc.

 

The central objective of the online quiz competition was to evaluate the participants’ knowledge on the topic- ‘Design features of language’.

The movie “Mee Sindhutai Sapkal” (2010) is a biographical account of Sindhutai Sapkal, also known as Maai.

The film shows Maai showering motherly affection on thousands of orphans, despite her own mother ruthlessly marrying her off to an older man when she was barely ten. The various shades were portrayed in the roles of Sindhutai’s cruel mother, the cow who protected her during labour, the bai who took her in and Sindhutai herself, who became a social activist after all the trauma she had been through.
The movie depicted that true motherhood isn’t merely taking care of one’s own kids, but giving love to every lost child in need. Moreover, it showed the contrast in the roles of the men in her life, her father who supported her until the very end and her husband who abandoned her.

 

A mother could be unfair at times, like her childhood implied, but above all, it is selfless, like Sindhutai nurturing the homeless kids before her own child.
“Mother”, the only person whose love is unconditional, pure and endless. The person who does the work of twenty, for free.

Steve jobs speech

‘You’ve got to find what you love’

Key Points :

  • Stay Hungry.
  • Stay Foolish (learning).
  • Value Education Class

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

The Department of Communicative English and Media Studies conducted a discussion on DSE 5 Dissertation class on December 4th, 2021. The facilitator Dr. DK Singh started the class by introducing the topic:  Dissertation on Research Methodology. He followed the class by discussing the introduction of the Research study, the methodology of how one can write the hypothesis, scope or range of coverage of the study , analysis ,interpretation and the findings of the research study.  The class ended with a discussion on the recommendations and limitations of the research study.

The Department of Communicative English and Media Studies organised a value education class on December 16th, 2021. The facilitator Mr Prashant Ravi began the class by showing a video. The video demonstrated was  , “Lunch with God”. The video was about how  often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Embrace all equally! He concluded the class by explaining how much sharing is important and how much anyone can affect us. So, always be kind and helpful to others.

“Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value”, said Einstein.

And it was Patna Women’s College’s CEMS Department that turned this quote into a learning opportunity for the students.

The Department had organised a Value Education session. The class began with a video clip that was displayed to the students. It was an inspiring film of a ‘Kabadiwala’ who, despite not having access to fundamental educational materials such as books, had gained knowledge by studying books that were discarded by others. It was a fantastic video that demonstrated that there are always ways to reach your objectives; all you need is the desire.

Mr. Ajay Kumar, a faculty member, led an interactive conversation after the video. His own experiences and stories taught students about life’s challenges and the desire to study. He also discussed the significance of even the tiniest characters in our life.

The department of Communicative English and Media Studies conducted a Value Education Class on 30th October,2021 for Semester- 1 at 9:15 a.m.to 10:10 a.m. The value education class included two videos, one of them was a short story with a message of the importance of blessings in the comparison to money. The second video was about ‘how can we lend a helping hand to needy people.’
The class was concluded by our Head of Department,Dr.Tauseef Hassan that ‘The Joy of Giving is not just about helping someone financially but it is also to bring a smile on someone’s face. We have to treat everyone equally and with no discrimination on any basis to respect their opinion’.

The department of Communicative English and Media Studies organised a Fresher’s Day Program for the batch of 2021-2024.
