‘Parivartan’- the Slum Education Programme, a CSR initiative of Department of Management Studies at I.T.S, Ghaziabad, was apparently an ordinary Sunday with a most extraordinary history lesson. This activity was conducted on 16th September, 2018.
The lesson of the day was on the Stone Age, the earliest part of human history. Aru told the children about the society of those times - how people dressed and hunted and how they worshiped their Gods. Several of the children already had some idea about the topic and joined in the discussion with gusto.
In the next part, Aru and Anchal quizzed the children on what they had learnt. Those who answered correctly were given toffees.
Finally Dr. Indraneel Mandal decided to familiarise the learners with animal sounds. It was hilarious to observe that whenever the children were asked about a particular animal, they would respond by imitating its sound. By the end of the exercise, however, the children became familiar with the English names for these sounds.
The day’s program ended with the distribution of "Bikano Navratan Mix" and "Mango Bite Toffees".
Dr. Mandal accompanied and motivated the student volunteers, and guided them in the conduct of the sessions.

In the first part of the day’s programme Prof. Lokesh Upreti explained the concept of literacy to the children, pointing out why it was important and necessary. He emphasized that without being educated, people could be easily duped as they would have no way of independently verifying the facts and information provided by others.
The second part of the plan for the day consisted of ‘Mera Parichay’ – a session to familiarise the children with how to write their names as well as those of their parents in Hindi and English. This turned out to be the most enthusiastic part for the little ones. Almost all of them came up to the two faculty members as well as the student volunteers to make sure that they were writing everything correctly.
In the concluding part, a quiz was held with a view to revise past learning. Prizes in the form of pencil boxes and purses donated by the I.T.S Parivar were handed out to those answered correctly. The excitement was palpable as the children were more than eager to win their chosen ‘gifts’!
