Other guests who attended the event were Mr. M. Vasudeva, Ms. Srilatha Channaprada, Mr. Syed Masood Ahmed, Dr. Rafeeq Ahmad, Dr. Fareed Ahmed, Dr. Mohammed Jafer Qureshi and Mr. Muneeruddin Muqtar. Families and friends of the students turned out in huge numbers to witness the grand graduation ceremony and prize distribution. The guests were welcomed by the Chairman of the School, Mr. Mohammad Misbahuddin, who in his opening address gave a glimpse of the school’s history, its present initiatives and future plans.
The Principal, Ms. Husna Haseeb, followed the Chairman’s address with her keynote speech, where she explained the need for conducting the “Tap The Genius In You” workshop and its benefits to the students. The graduation ceremony was conducted in the school premises on 17th February, 2019, where the students of CIS demonstrated various skills and techniques learnt at this workshop by applying them to a wide range of various subjects like English, Biology, Physics and Chemistry. The demonstrations proved to be the highlight of the show and were a tremendous success. Mr. Zafar Mahmood conducted the workshop, where students were taught a complete way of life to be adopted to awaken the inherent skills and capabilities in order to become a genius.
Memory Filing System
The ‘Tap the Genius In You Workshop’ helps students to understand strategies that can be incorporated to hone memorization skills by a technique called Memory Filing System. They were taught studying techniques and ways that can make them study efficiently using less time and effort with results that are lasting.
The students were also introduced and trained in a technique called photographic memory wherein the students can register and recall information based on a couple of glances at the learning material. Students were also trained to develop their intrapersonal skills through a technique called Mind Programing, which is a world class technique adopted by top athletes and other successful professionals who thrive in challenging situations, push the limits and redefine the meaning of success. They were enlightened on the power of meditation and how it enables a person to have mental, social and spiritual wellbeing by blending various techniques with certain day-to-day Islamic practices.
Lastly, the students were imparted valuable knowledge and wisdom about ways in which a child can be a good student and a noble human being, transcending the boundaries of academic learning and incorporating learning into the day-to-day life in order to lead a life filled with purpose and meaning.
