Livewire – The Social Media Club@SRMS IBS organised ‘Good Touch! Bad Touch!’ Awareness Campaign for students of SRMS School on Friday, October 20th, 2023. Capturing nicely the overarching theme of the campaign, role plays were essayed across two concurrently held sessions for boys and girls of classes 5th-8th. Conceived by Respected Director, SRMS IBS, Prof. Shyamal Gupta, Dean Academics, Prof. (Dr) Manoj Pandey, the Campaign event was graced by Respected Principal, SRMS School, Ms. Neha Awasthi and SRMS School and Teachers. The event was coordinated by Dr. Tanmay Pant and Ms. Aanchal Dwivedi, Faculty, SRMSIBS and student coordinators of Social Media Club.
Highlighting the stark contrast between a GOOD TOUCH AND A BAD TOUCH, undergraduate student performers (SRMS IBS) of the roles, brought out vivid displays of situations where a bad touch could happen simultaneously depicting the corresponding good touch.
As a strong message across the student groups, the taboo associated with discussion about bad touch with parents leave the children vulnerable, the acts highlighted. Perfect role displays made an instant connect with the school children in what was a great learning opportunity for them.
Lastly, students were asked to identify the good and the bad touches which all of them did easily, corroborating thus, the successful objective set forth for the campaign. Chocolates were given for the right answers and no one missed the chance to grab a learning opportunity that came with the motivation to win a chocolate.
A positive experience for one and all, the Campaign, in sync with the ever expanding social campaigns from the Livewire – Social Media SRMS IBS stable, was a learning addition to events of substance that increase the awareness about social issues.
