विज़ी की और भानगा ग़ा और कादे कर मैंदे, if we can just ask you to be a little bit specific so we had given you an outline of the topics we are going to cover so we would like you to share about how these topics are going to address the needs that you have identified for yourself so you want us to repeat please I didn't hear what your request is so you would like us to repeat say yes or no say yes lot of times what also works is if you do a thumbs up so we know yes okay alright please go ahead so what I was saying was we have given you a list of topics that we are going to cover and the content of these topics a brief overview we gave you before the break so we would like to know from you how these topics would help you in your growth or if you feel that we have left out some topic also you can tell us because remember we had made you do those activities the whole idea was to do some matchmaking as professor said he was saying match what we are teaching to your needs and requirements so can you share with us about your this match match fixing is what we are trying to do here speak into the mic hold the mic closer so I expected the topics you are covering especially the observing part and the cultural differences and I really look forward to those two sessions a lot because I think that I want to be much more aware of these two things rather than the other aspects okay okay so of the six sessions or the coming five sessions how many of them you say are useful for you out of five almost every topic is out of add up to my personality so all of them are really important to me excellent so is there anything that is there anything that you had in mind which is not covered everything that I thought of okay so I am promising you something that by the time we done with these six sessions you will have new things that you would want to do in soft skills okay very good thank you Sahajanji should we go to is anybody else at Jaipur wants to say anybody else because from the last time I remember somebody sitting next to you raised her hand so this is an opportunity to share okay so take every opportunity to share you can't fail at this so don't be shy please go ahead okay very good can you come a little closer we can't see you alright very good thank you hello Sheetal hello Sheetal I think I have seen that topic that you have given in last class and I think the body language and the communication skills more important according to excellent excellent so that's a possible area of training for you yes excellent alright very good anything which is missing everything is covered according to me and why do you think that body language is important for you as Sheetal I am asking Sheetal actually sir according to me when I communicate I care I teach Sheetal I does not communicate with more people we can already see you using your hands quite a lot okay so it's a matter of practice okay so please use yeah so first of all thank you for taking the microphone and speaking today okay because I know that it takes effort it takes you to break through some of your own concerns some of your own you know the devils in the heads the thoughts in the heads which says I am shy I shouldn't speak etc but you broke through that and I encourage all the people in your center as well as in other centers to please pick up the microphone and start talking because till you don't get on to the bicycle you will not learn how to how to ride the bicycle right so you have to get on to the bicycle and was this experience good for you did you enjoy this interaction okay excellent so you know there will be more opportunities and you should continue to do that also you must remember that this is live on YouTube so this is your first time on TV yes sir this is my first time so it's not just an interaction between you and us okay you are being watched by a thousand people are you okay with that yes sir I am okay yeah and you did very well so congratulations well done okay thank you sir thank you so much for giving me this opportunity no no we didn't you took it you took the opportunity you took the opportunity there are many others who are not taking the opportunity we want them to okay alright very good so we sure sure we'll move on to the next center now can we take something from the YouTube if they have something posted something on the chat okay sure so that we get a chance give chance to those as well yeah so there are several people who are interacting through the YouTube so what we will do is we will look for some inputs that have come through the YouTube and share it with share it with you okay just give us a second please he came down live he came down live second or second live from IIT Bombay yeah no okay now we'll take this session no if there is anything otherwise we'll go back are there any inputs coming now as we speak no okay no problem maybe we'll take some from that no problem so we should probably continue so we will now switch over to the slides and continue to do I think we should go to one more center is Punjab back Mahendra is Punjab back okay okay no problem some Dhule so we're going to now do while we're looking for some other centers you should get prepared with a notebook and a pen we're going to do some written work and then we give you a chance to share from the written work okay so please keep your notebooks and pens ready because we're going to give you some writing exercise soon yeah and we can see from here who is writing not writing okay okay alright so we're going to go offline for a second something's wrong and then we'll come back so please hang in there okay there's a query on youtube how to prepare notes yeah that's there so one of you has asked on youtube how do we prepare notes so this is to be this will be covered in two of the topics one is about listening skills because you become a better listener if you are a better note taker and there are different techniques here so it's not just though we've been telling you have a notebook and a pen there are specific techniques which can help you to take notes in a structured way and then retain them for almost forever I have notes from my college days which is 30 years ago which I still use in my classroom now okay so of course we didn't have these techniques then there's been kinds of techniques which help you to connect what is being taught different things and then enhance your learning objectives so we'll talk about that secondly note taking is also at work so when you're joining when you joined an organization and you are in meetings or you have to you're taking instructions from your boss there are different kinds of notes that you need to take and send out so that aspect also is going to be covered by professor Lina Jha two kinds of note taking we are going to cover this was in response to a question posted by somebody who's watching this on YouTube yeah YouTube tell me something else or we can ask Mahindra but we should know what questions to respond to while we're sorry that there's a technical glitch and it's taking sometime to get the system back but I believe you all can hear us so maybe we can share couple of things which we wanted to tell you towards the end one is about time so in IIT classes start on start on time end on time everybody is here on time so this these sessions every saturday phase to phase is from 9 30 to 1 pm this is supposed to be a blended books course which means that these phase to phase sessions on saturdays are as important as the videos on the online material that we are giving you so we would like you to take this seriously ensure you're here on you're there at your remote centers or wherever you are on time and please make sure you come half an hour early so that you can check the systems are working and please come back on time after the break as well because important instructions advice that are being given out all the time and you should ensure that you don't miss any of these so please make sure you're here on time the second thing is make effective use of the discussion forum so the discussion forum is not a general discussion forum so it's not for discussing salman khan or amir khan so please post questions only on this particular course not even on MOOCs in general or IIT Bombay X in general and before you post questions please see if you can actually browse the IIT Bombay X website and see if there are questions there are answers already for your questions so only if you can't find these answers because we do get hundreds of questions and we would like to make sure that we answer all of them but we would also like to make sure that only those for which answers are not already available we get to answer them so that sort of minimizes the response time that we have in terms of responding to your questions I also want to point to another thing all the readings that you do from the internet all the videos that you watch on the internet towards certain training and development get interpreted and understood by the you that you are so there's a certain way you understand, there's a certain viewpoint you have which becomes a filter through which you see things through which you observe and absorb things so one of the unique things about being in a face to face interaction is that we get a chance to coach you on the court not in terms of what to learn but how to interpret a particular thing or how to learn it so that's really for me if you ask me the unique aspect of this training course is that you're already intelligent you're already well accomplished we don't need to give you more of that all we want to do is add new dimensions to how you think how you observe so that you can get other interpretations of the same thing which you have been seeing till now so that has you expand and that has you grow and develop so now we're back on the back on AVU sorry for the snag so everybody back on youtube back on AVU we're going to start the slides now in which we're going to ask you to do an exercise on two two of the many things that we mentioned would be covered but we just thought these two would at least be a starting point so we're going to give you two topics let me just go to shift F5 ok so we took the break and now we're back from the break a little more than so we also ask if there are any questions we did a little bit of conversations maybe go to the next slide so here are the two domains which we would like you to think and write how would training in these two apply to you and we're going to give you 20 minutes which means that 10 minutes between the two and then we will come back and discuss these ok so before we start please take a look so I'll read it out for you for the following two domains write your thoughts on how these apply to you first one is verbal communication written and oral conducting and participating in meetings there should be a comma after that and e-communication e-mail communications number two is group discussion interviews and resume writing ok so I'll just stop for a moment and ask if you have any questions about the exercise we're trying to do so let's clarify that before you start the exercise so let's go to a particular center and interact with you again what we can say is if anybody has a question you can raise your hand please raise your hand so anybody has questions about this exercise please raise your hand do you know how to raise your hand not physically but on a view you need to press a button to let us know that you have a question wherever you're sitting yeah I got specific questions about presentation, group discussion and so on I think we need to tell them about today if you go to youtube we will have lost everybody on the a view no you can still hear them that's what forget the video those on youtube can see the slides also we're sorry we seem to be having a problem again ok I think we are back so can we go to some college they have raised the hand at college marian marian alright amrita welcome back this is amrita alright so are you clear about the exercise so we've got two things up there I'll share the slide again but to see how it might apply to you so you expected to do like a 10 minutes writing on each and do some thinking because if you see this is the training so it's not like you'll just listen to this now and then later no no no this is the time to actually do the writing and do the thinking and this is where your soft skills are actually getting developed in your articulation of the whole thing so are you both of you clear as to what needs to be done yeah ok fabulous so we'll go to the next place so I'll just put up the slide after this interaction we'll put up the slide how about if you go to jaipur again back again jaipur my favorite center how are you any questions you have about the exercise we're trying to do maybe somebody else this time I'll give somebody else a chance very good hello what's your name alak say it again alak ok very good so are you clear about can you tell me what the exercise is what are we expecting you to do in the written work actually we couldn't note down the question no problem we'll put it up again we'll put up the slide again but suppose I said verbal communication so what is it that I'm expecting you to do about verbal communication now what is the written work to be done I need to be more clear about what I want to communicate to the person ok very good so what I'd like for you to do is not worry about clarity ok I'd like for you to see how it might apply to you these can be very rough thoughts these are thoughts which are randomly coming don't worry about all of that ok I don't want it to be fully articulated as you understand it now kind of a communication what I'd like for you to explore so that you can get creative about aha what are the possible things that can happen if you started exploring training in this area so I'm not looking for the right answer ok what we're looking for is and I'm not going to ask you to submit this this is the thought process that you will go through to make sure that you begin to see what are the kinds of different things that you can get out of these particular modules ok so tell me back what I just said to you you said that I should be more creative and I should explore more so that I can get more thoughts about this mobile communication excellent and there is no need to be correct ok there's absolutely no need to be correct because we don't even know what we are exploring so how can we correct no but we need to explore and what we should explore yeah so explore see so what you should explore when you're riding a bicycle what do you explore environment environment no no when you you learnt how to ride a bicycle right ok good so when you were learning how to ride a bicycle how did you do that how did you learn how to ride a bicycle how do you explore it balancing part yeah but you didn't even know balance that time no yes sir so balance came after exploration now exploration is a very high state of consciousness it's a very high state of confusion and paradox to get to that balance you had to go through a lot of confusion and lot of paradox so I'm actually requesting your willingness to be completely confused it's a good thing it's a good thing ok is that ok see in school when we were being taught be clear don't be confused this is how it is done and we learnt it right ok good now there's a different kind of learning here so you must allow yourself to be confused you must allow yourself to be absolutely uncertain about what's going on and you have the freedom because you write it in your notebook and then you have things to explore so that's how you do it you actually get onto the bicycle you fall you get onto the bicycle you fall at some point in time by the time the next face to face session you will be telling me how to communicate aha I hope yeah yeah so that's absolutely ok very good ok so somebody else in your centre person sitting behind you I can see or in front or in front hello I can't see you can we change the camera angle ok very good so what is the exercise so what is the exercise it's about something rough idea about good discussion resume writing and verbal communication very good so everything that you know you must put down you must put down because that's what you know ok and then you should start picking up the courage to ask questions you have not asked yet so the exercise is really for you to put down all the thoughts you have and the thoughts that you have not entertained in now which will start emerging good can you do that in 10 minutes ok excellent alright thank you very much Jaipur we will move on to the next centre I think we should give you the slide again now show the slide since they are not ok should we show the slide yeah I am sure some of them said they have not had time to yes it takes you to that same slide shift ok so this is what we asked you to do spend about 20 minutes which is now restricted limited to 16 minutes now because of the technical glitch so we have given you 2 domains that is 2 areas in which learning is going to happen 1 is verbal communication written and oral which is at the workplace and then there is comma that is missing there conducting and participating in meetings and e-communication which includes both email and other social media the second domain which we have given you is group discussion interviews and resume writing and we can see that already some students are asking questions on this in youtube so please write your thoughts on how these apply to you what these mean means is that how is this going to be useful for you how do you relate to this what do you expect to learn what topics you expect to be covered please note down these instructions and start working on them for the next 16 minutes yeah ok yeah we will be back at 12.20 ok and please make sure that your videos are working because we would like to reach out to more colleges more remote centers and those who are on youtube please post these whatever you have written if you can post a short and succinct response on youtube chat we will take it up problem also with youtube these kind of exercises they cannot post everything see if we can go to some other college we can just watch them problem but you know it may not be a bad idea to also show it on youtube because other people we can ask everybody youtube is accessible everywhere now see till we do it show the slide there is there something she has written down yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ok welcome back I hope you got some time to dwell on those two domains so we interact with maybe two of the remote centers to get a sense of where you are if anything is opening up if you have any questions ok very good so we are at aks satna alright welcome I haven't had a chance to interact with you before so welcome say hello everybody yeah say hello very good ok you should also know you are on youtube right now ok so say hi to all the youtubers out there ok good alright so I hope you got a chance to do the work so would somebody like to share as to what what is it that you are finding as you do the work it doesn't have to be the right answer we all we want to know is where are you with regard to the process what are your thoughts what are your difficulties ok please go ahead so if you remember the question we asked you is how do these applied to you we gave you two domains or topics non-verbal communication and group discussion interviews and resume writing how do these applied to you is what we have asked you to write about so please share so we are from AKS university hello yes so we are from AKS university so we didn't get what to do in these questions ok very good so when you say we is it you and everybody else or you know what does we mean sir we are so this is a joint confusion is it is there anybody who has anybody at all who has written alright so let's take a look so let's talk let's discuss so where is the difficulty what's the difficulty in the question what's the question so how does a particular communication and how so if you were to get trained in this how would it apply to you ok let me give you an example what are you studying currently what are you studying UG4 which subject business administration pardon business administration business administration so can you tell me a particular topic in business administration which you are currently learning market research ok so suppose I ask the same question market research is a domain how does this apply to you how will you answer so research work research work yeah so say a little more about it so assume now you are talking to assume you are talking to somebody from class 10th ok and you have to explain what you are doing in market sorry sir in market research if we want to introduce a new product in a market so we actually study what amount of year it actually in that present time it exists and then we introduce that product yeah excellent excellent so everybody in the room gets what he is saying yes you agree with what he is saying yes say yes if you say yes put a thumbs up everybody alright very good so what do you now if we were to now say verbal communication how does it apply to you interacting with the other pupil how we effectively express our self or to understand to explain our self to other and also understand what they want to with her excellent excellent now if you were to get trained in verbal communication how would it apply to you how does it how would the training how would the training in that area apply to you it will enhance my skill and communication as I am presently hesitating or sometime started stammering in communication so it will enhance my ability to communicate excellent so you know you did something very nice just now you very specifically said stammering hesitating and stammering okay so enhancement for one person can be very different from enhancement for another person so we are looking for specifically this is your own personal commitment in the matter now as to how will it apply to you specifically so everybody has some specific domain in some specific aspect which will be which will this training will apply for you yes yes sir okay so give the microphone to the person the first person who was speaking yes sir okay very good so now very specifically where would the training in verbal communication apply to you in presentation very good so what is it about presentation that is not acceptable or you think that is not fully handled or is a problem or is a problem for explaining for explaining okay so do you know it and cannot explain or you don't know it I know it but I cannot explain properly excellent excellent so you know how that will apply to you then right yes sir okay so the training is in actually taking that which you just said take something that you understand and explain to 10 people today that becomes training okay very good so it's simple right now it doesn't it doesn't get very philosophical or it doesn't get very you know reachable inaccessible it is very clear hey I find it difficult to I know something but I find it difficult to explain so explain to who in front of public okay so when you say public what does that mean in classroom while giving presentation so for example how many people in your room right now 12 so in front of 12 people you are okay about explaining in front of 12 people you can explain no problem but in front of 100 people cannot explain properly okay alright so what is the difference between 12 people and 100 people don't say 88 master sorry master master okay so can I give you can I can I coach you a little bit yes okay at one point in time how many people can you talk to 20 to 30 no only one you understand that is the training you need so even if you are in a group of 12 people or 100 people when you talk your attention is on one person okay if that person gets it all the other 99 will get it you have the ability to talk to one person correct yes good then that fictitious thing about mass which lives like a little how are for you you understand yeah so that's the only thing your viewpoint yeah your viewpoint has to you have to let go of that there is mass there's no mass there's actually 100 individuals and you choose who you want to talk to you talk to first person then you talk to the second person you talk to the 88th person okay so that's a part of the training so will you start having conversations for people focusing on one person and not worrying about anybody else try start practicing okay start practicing thank you very very much okay thanks for both of you and everybody else any questions in that room thank you sir welcome anybody else has a question hello sir yes then what are the difference between soft kill and hard kill one is soft and one is hard what are the difference between soft kill and hard kill one is soft and one is hard soft kill sir I know I know I'm just joking with you okay professor fatak really believes nothing like soft skills yes sir he believes there are only hard skills okay now there are only hard skills there are no soft skills okay so let me ask you this if you wanted to repair a bicycle and you wanted to ride a bicycle yes sir which is a hard skill and which is a soft skill repairing sir repairing is a hard skill okay and riding it that is soft skill excellent so you answered the question so now I'm not trying to make light I think what your question is very profound but you know can can a caterpillar say how it became a butterfly you know a caterpillar yes sir okay can a caterpillar say how it became a butterfly no sir no but a butterfly can right yes sir butterfly yes yes sir butterfly can sir yeah very good so can you just be the caterpillar for now what sir I didn't get you can you be caterpillar for now sure sir okay good so in six weeks you will tell me what is hard skills and what is soft skills okay sir is that okay yes sir okay now I don't want to you know I don't want you to wait for this you will be doing the exploration you will be see it doesn't matter what you call it yes sir important thing is you will know that there is a certain access that you have to communication to yourself you will begin to experience it for yourself it lies in your experience yes sir so I can't describe it for example if you tell me sir please tell me balance on the bicycle I can't explain it to you okay so please stay there this is a very it's an important question but the answer is only in your own experience so I am not too sure whether anybody can answer that question so some questions are intended not to be answered some questions give you access to something and you don't even need the answer after that okay sir so thank you for asking that very profound question okay appreciated big hand for her everybody give her big hand excellent anybody else okay we can go to another center okay we will do so bye bye for now see you next week bye bye sir marian can you hear us but we can't see you but job is not on NIT is there NIT in Angpur 1128 we are not getting your video marian college we are not getting your video feed please check your equipment nmims shirpur mother Teresa we are not getting your video feed nmims shirpur mother Teresa next one nmims shirpur you seem to be behind some kind of a pardha some kind of a curtain we checked already we checked already maybe we can go back to dutta that time we had got dutta shri dutta nitya nitya down down next next dutta we had got them last time no see how good is there anyone there i want to go back to my favorite jaypur let's just try aks one aks we had gone to them alia see you pur upur aks we just we just went we had gone to the yard let's go to jaypur ok there is nothing here this is that hi any quick questions for you any quick questions from your exercise no sir i have explored that group discussion interviews are important and how to present ourselves interview is a main thing because the body knowledge is important but the body language and the way of expressing ourselves is also important in that and in group discussion also to take our turn that our turn will come on or we have to take the chance to talk yeah so this group yeah so very good so the group discussion is something which will be discussed in quite a bit of detail but i may be pre-empting this a little bit but the one thing that i got out of being in one of the sessions previously on group discussion was invariably how we deal with group discussion is that i should outshine other people in the group discussion isn't it because it's a selection right so i should outshine right ok now what if the group did so well that everybody got called for the interview can you be that person can you be the person who makes sure that everybody in the group wins ok not individually as a group sorry we should not think about individually we should think about the group as informal yeah because if you say individual discussion it's an oxymoron right so group discussion is actually what are you this also becomes a part of the listening that you are providing the space in which people can say and you take the best of what people have said and highlight it as their contribution i would want that kind of a person in my company or do i want somebody in my company who is all the time trying to outshine other people and while they win there are dead bodies around them ok so more of this will come sharing this with you i am glad you are engaging in that and other people are listening to this also we will get this highlighted a little later in the session so thank you avantika and we appreciate your commitment for staying on even though you are doing it alone that shows your motivation ok thank you very much avantika and you be the person who allows the group to win ok ok questions ok we will do that ok avantika take care bye bye see you again so should we go to youtube now ok so we are going to go to youtube to see some of the ok let's go down all the way let's go latest first referring to workplace conducting in a way tracking the progress of a team on a progress project overcoming difficulties so we going to so one common that as coming referring to a workplace conducting and participating in meeting in a way of tracking progress team working on a project any difficulties but sharing solutions and ideas hey let write exactly what the group discussion conversation was about a few minutes ago fabulous well done have to mention there action i appreciate what he written मुब जे लेज काटपिलरही टान से आप अज दे लोग मैं आप सकेलिस लेगको

if you did those diligently, you should not worry about too much about certificate. The real benefit is, see, if you walk into an interview with a certificate or who walks into the interview is already selected, which one do you want? Already selected. So you will speak for yourself rather than the certificate. Does that make sense? So I don't need yet another certificate in my portfolio. What I need is someone who is carrying those certificates who actually is communicating in a way in which people would want them to be on their team. Should we slow the slide? There is a slide on that. We will just show you a slide one second. So this is what we are saying that there are these sessions. There is a quiz that you need to take. And there are several activities which we want you to carry out as well. And any questions on these, you can use the discussion forum. But as professor Sethi was saying, certificate is you, what you have acquired, what you have transformed into, what kind of growth you have experienced. So that is what you should be concerned about. So professor Sethi was talking about Gandhi saying, my life is my message. There is another famous quote from an American media studies scholar called Marshall McLuhan. So he said the medium is the message. So that is what medium you use to communicate, whether it is oral or written, television, newspaper and so on, that is what he was referring to. But we can extrapolate it to this, that you doing something, that is the certificate. See in the normal certificate that you get, you get for passing. All we are going to do in this particular six weeks is make you fail and fail and fail and fail. So we will give you certificate for failing. But we would not say you fail. But what would emerge is a whole other human being who is beyond the failures now. The butterfly will emerge. The butterfly will emerge. So that is what there is to say, but I am sure there are questions. Please go ahead and ask more questions. So I think they have questions about what they need to do in terms of minimum requirements and so on. So basically we just want you to attempt every single quiz and activity that you need to do. So long as you do that, you don't have to be scared. You have a question? Actually, I just wanted to express myself that actually I took this course because I actually like public speaking, talking to people and putting my ideas forward and getting their reviews of what they think about my thoughts. So I actually took this course so that I can learn how to communicate better. Like in my school days I used to take part in competitions and recitations and extemporaries and group discussions. And I actually like that because I like to talk, interact with people and get their ideas. Actually, I was a fan of literature, not engineering initially. So to get an opportunity to learn more about these things, I am very happy. And I am looking forward to the classes. Okay, so can I put a little damper on that? Yes, sir. Okay, sorry, but as a coach that's my job. So what I want to say is there will be things in the quizzes, there will be things in the preparatory material, there will be things in the face-to-face session which you may not like. We still request you to commit to it and go through the exercise such that something else becomes available to you which is beyond like and dislike. Yes. Okay, so a coach is never interested in making the player comfortable and the player is definitely not going to do only things that he or she likes. The coach will make you do things which are not necessarily comfortable sometimes. So I am inviting you to that kind of a domain. And I appreciate that. Go ahead. I am actually interested to learn more things. Absolutely. Because these daily routines of going to the college and coming back and doing all those activities, we tend to forget what are actually important things in life. So to get more skill will be a really helpful thing. Fabulous. And why I like riding the bicycle is because I know how to. Okay, so there will be things that you will know how to and therefore you will start liking them. Interesting. Okay, good. So our intent here is not whatever you like, you are already good at fabulous. Our intent over here is so that we can give you all the possible inputs so that you can get trained so that the things which you didn't like, now you start liking them because you start enjoying them. Okay, good. Thank you very much. Okay, appreciate it. A big hand for you. Big hand. Thank you. Yeah, please. Go ahead. My friend would also like to. Oh, absolutely. Yeah. We missed out the last two activities for the late registration so we can do it after this class. Yeah, I very, very strongly encourage you to do it please because it has value. So you know, you don't take my permission for that. Okay, I don't have to give you permission to get trained. So get yourself trained. Yeah, take it up. Do it well. Yeah, the deadline is over. Demand for it. Yeah. Alright, thank you very much. Okay, bye-bye. Yeah, let's go to the next. Aha, where is this? This is a new group. Finally, we got you. How are you? Yes, sir. Marian. Alright, so you have any questions? Sure. Any questions? Sir, just we are just right to ask a lot about the activities. Go ahead. When we come to this new discussion, tell us what you'd like with others and improves our communication skills. And when in the part of the interview, we just talk with the interviewer. And in all these situations, we are tensed and we get a language block. Okay. So we will be improving these situations. So, let me just take away the... You know, you'll do a lot more training with Dr. Leena Jha a little later. But at this point in time, what I want to say to you is, tell me one time when you are not being interviewed. You talk to your mother in the morning. Hello, sir. Can you hear me? Sorry, my mother is not with me. No problem. So, who do you talk to? Do you talk to your teacher? Yeah. Regularly. Regularly. Okay. So, what's the difference between talking to your teacher and going for an interview? I think when we talk to the teacher, we can talk informally. And when we are in the movie box, there's a formal talk. So, I think that you should start talking to your teacher formally. When we talk to the teachers, we can have a friendly talk with them. No more friendly talks. No more friendly talks. Your teacher is not your friend. Your teacher is in a position to train you for your interviews. Start having the conversations that you would have in an interview with your teachers. You do not have the conversations that are asked for you in the interview with your teachers. So, start those conversations with your teachers. Start those conversations with each other. All of you are very friendly with each other, but you're not professional with each other. So, if you practice with yourself and you practice with your teachers, there is no interview. Any day, every day is an interview. Okay. So, tell me back what did you get? Tell me back. I want to hear. So, you are just saying that every day is an interview. When we regularly talk with teachers, a formal talk is there with the teacher. Yeah. And the person who is in an interview, is that person from another planet? Sir, I can hear. I said, in the interview, the people who come to interview you, are they from another planet? No sir. Oh, okay. Okay. So, aliens to us. Yeah. I agree with you. I agree with you. That is because you made them an alien. Why? Because you want a job. Okay sir. Yeah. So, if you are not worried about getting a job, if you are there to have a conversation, in which you can see whether you will be able to contribute to their company, at that point in time, it is a conversation that you would have with your teacher or with your friends. The important thing is, what kind of conversations are you having with your teachers and with your friends, which are different from what you would have in an interview. Start having those conversations. Here, there will be no interviews then. I think it is sad. I would just like to add to that. You know, you are nervous because you want a job. But remember, the purpose of this interview is that they want you also. Okay. They are looking for people to hire. So, you are also in a position of advantage. Okay. So, you show why you need to be hired by them. Why you should be there? So, they are looking for people. And so, it is not only a question of you impressing them to get a job, but making sure that they are interested in you. Okay. So, they are also nervous. I do not want to lose out this good person. I want to know what this person has so that, you know, I do the interview properly. I do not want to miss out on asking certain questions and improperly assessing this person and so on. So, the person sitting on the interview board and we have been there, we also want to get the right person. We do not want to lose out. Okay. So, you take advantage of that. Okay. Okay. So, can I give you the mantra? We have the mantras like, right? Yeah. So, everybody, we got another 2-3 minutes. So, I want to, can I give you a coaching mantra? Sure, sir. Okay. Good. Here it is. Okay. So, the mantra is practice and share, practice and share, practice and share. And again, practice and share, practice and share, practice and share. The preparatory work, the quiz work, all it's going to do you is provide you with some framework what you have to practice and what you have to share. And constantly, ongoingly, you'll have to keep reflecting on, you'll have to keep monitoring and you have to keep being proud of your own growth. So, can we go back to the... Okay. So, what do you hear in that? So, you must have your regular practice and we must monitor what we are practicing and we must look forward to our growth. Yeah. And be proud of it. You forgot that. Be proud. Okay. Okay. Okay. Very good. So, do you play some games? Sure. Sure. What do you play? For what? Regularly, we are not playing because we are busy with studies. But I used to, sometimes I just play caroms. Okay. So, there is a certain skill involved with carom and cricket, right? Yeah. So, what do you think Sachin Tendulkar watched some videos and became a master? No, it's his skills that has made him a good cricketer. So, I am just saying that he is a good cricketer and we call them skills. Yeah. So, we are saying that good skills make him a good cricketer. No. It's not only his skills but something more than that. What is that? Practice. Regular practice. Excellent. Excellent. With no attention on sixers and no attention on centuries. You practice. You practice. You practice. Why? Because you love the game. You practice because you love the game. Yeah. All right. Because practice means a man perfect. Excellent. So, the question. After each and every game, Sachin Tendulkar watches his own video. Excellent. He takes his own big points. Yeah. Very good. So, you admire him, don't you? Yeah. Okay. Very good. So, what you do is bring those practices in your own life. Yes? Yeah. He asked you something. Okay. Very good. I will do it. Yeah. Excellent. Now, the question is cricket is Sachin Tendulkar's game. I am going to leave you with a question now. The question is what is your game? Okay. Studies. That studies is. So, we leave that as a question. In fact, I will add it to the quiz for this coming session. Okay. You need to articulate what is your game. Okay. If you are committed to people and you committed to a great life for yourself and for people around you, then soft skills will come up accordingly. Okay. Good. Yeah. You're thinking. So, thank you very much for taking it in. Okay. I appreciate it. Thank you very much for listening. Okay. Big hand for you. Thank you. Thank you. Time to close. Okay. So, let's just go to one. We have any other slides now? I think that's it. Last slide. Yeah. Can we just go to the slide? I think one slide before. So, in closing, we just like to give you a few instructions about the next phase-to-phase on 3rd February. So, for this, okay, before that, there is going to be an online quiz that we are going to give you for this introductory session that we conducted today. There are going to be some quizzes and activities. This will be released later today and you need to complete them by February 2nd, which is a Thursday or Friday? Thursday. Friday. Okay. Now, the preparatory materials for the next session, that is the next phase-to-phase session on 3rd February, that will be released on 29th, which is a Monday. Right? Okay. So, when we release it, you will also be given some time to complete any activities there before the phase-to-phase session on 3rd February. All right? Because this is blended MOOCs, which means that it's not just a blending of online material and phase-to-phase sessions. We expect you to have completed some activities, some basic readings, some basic assignments before you come to the class next Saturday. Okay? So, these are mandatory, which means that these preparatory materials are not just about watching videos and reading some material. You may be asked to complete some activities, complete some quizzes and so on. So, two things to remember. For what we did today, there is going to be an online quiz released later today, which you need to complete by 2nd February. It's mandatory. The second thing is for the next phase-to-phase session, the preparatory materials will be released on Monday, 29th January and you will be given 3-4 days to complete those activities. All right? Yeah, if you have any questions regarding these, please post them to the discussion forum. With that, it's already a little past... Sorry. So, it's a little past 1 o'clock. It's 1.04 now. Apologies for going over time. Thank you very much. Both, Prof. Partha Sarthi and I had a very enjoyable time with you. Look forward to continued interactions with you and also on behalf of the entire team, the production team over here, we want to say thank you for your participation and look forward to seeing you through the discussion forum as well as through other messages that we will get from YouTube.
