Souls searching from student’s Note book
Sometimes
it’s interesting to study the student's notebook and spent further time in analyzing
the impact you made in student's learning as a teacher beside teaching in the four corners of the classroom.
Note book in a Primary school days could be
the memory chips of walking back to your journey of education. It tells your
story once as a school goer child. What really makes you a man out of that childish thinking to
the great man?
I
have failed in my case. I don’t know where did i keep my years of written note book over the dying
times. I don't have ideas of documenting it until I realized it now for collecting it for
future use than valuing only of the faded certificates.
Do you remember the numbers of your notebook saved yourself for future use from class PP till you finish your
graduations?

Student Note Books collected for corrections and comments and feed backs. |
Your
note book is enough to describe your mind in a stage of growing and in the field of learning as a child. It is a treasure house of ideas and concepts. It has evolved with a time, when I was studying
in Class PP; I remember writing on stone slate with chalk. No doubt many did the same when modern
education was still naive in the system of ours.
For
over the ages note taking is a process of learning. Note taking is considered
to be the most preferred way of learning for centuries. It is widely used
in current structure of disseminating the concepts, ideas and the information inside the
classroom.
From one angle checking students note book as a teacher is only the means to
measure the level of learning and the creativity. Some students have well taken
care while few students failed even to put a simple cover, risking the
durability of the note-for everyday use in learning and writing. Some
students have been very creative in maintaining the notebook in their best of
all. Iconic work can be seen in number
of pages celebrating the artistic expressions and the beauty of the mind. Similarly,
one can make out clearly who are interested in taking up the joy of learning
from scanning the simple notebook of the students.

An encouraging comments of a teacher |
Some
students have scribbled many thoughts in the back page of the notes. Recently I heard some of the students tend to
write their suicide note in the middle of the blank page or in the last page of
the notebook. Thus, it is felt as the genuine need of timely
checking note-book and look for the necessary intervention.
In
light to the change in Education setting, resourcing and teaching, laptop is likely to (techno
gadgets) replace the current Note-book.
