The Snehagram facility focuses on teaching and interaction
with the students. Learning and living there provides the children with a great
experience and aids with their holistic development. One of the most important
aspects of learning is related to the sphere of Psychology. For several
reasons, the learning of such a subject is of paramount importance because the
individual gains multiple skills like learning about oneself and others,
gaining better analytical, logical and scientific skills, the chance to make
their overall quality of life better in multiple spheres as well as higher
consciousness and awareness.
Furthermore, students learn about different fields in the
sphere of psychology, which greatly contributes to various skills and knowledge
levels that the students may already have on the subject. Volunteers at
Snehagram often use various methods in order to teach children. This includes
writing, drawing flowcharts and mind-maps, explaining through a chalkboard, as
well as conducting several group and individual tasks and activities. A variety
of pedagogy is utilised to keep the children preoccupied, interested and
engaged as they tend to get distracted and lose attention in the learning
process.
Teaching such concepts to the children and bringing them to
the forefront with such a subject is important because of the analytical nature
of the subject itself. Instilling and developing phenomenal analytical and
scientific abilities, the capacity to be an efficient communicator and to
thrive in the face of conflict is only a portion of the extra advantages of
learning psychology. A background in psychology does not just offer students
the chance of turning into a practitioner themself, it likewise lays the
foundation for various other vocational alternatives.
Lastly, over the lockdown, the academic aspect has been
conducted by volunteers over the online platform. This includes discussions and
teachings on art therapy and dance therapy and this further brings about a
great deal of learning and awareness for the children, fulfilling the goal
behind the initiative of the Spandan Project.
