 Effective Learning through Classroom Activities

We, at department of Communication Skills, believe in teaching students English language and literature through various classroom activities. In this series, we are presenting our first activity Effective Listening through Interviews.

Effective Listening through Interviews

The activity was planned and executed by Ms. Niti Vachhani for the students of B.A. Hons. (Faculty of Law Semester-1). The students were assigned the roles of an interviewer and the interviewee, where the interviewee assumes the role of a famous personality of their choice, and answers the questions asked by the interviewer carefully. The other students were then asked to identify the type/mode of listening required. The activity aligned with an ongoing topic which was Listening In Context in Effective Listening Skills Course, and the students got a better and first-hand understanding of how each type/mode of listening works.
