My Smart Plan on Hellen Keller
It is my goal to generate and create awareness among the masses about the most pressing problems of our times. For example, creating awareness about pollution and its consequences for mankind, sensitizing students about the fact that their survival depends on the ecological balance of the planet.
Pollution can result in the destruction of the entire universe. Their feelings, emotions and the whole attitude can be changed by rich audio-video web-based resources along with the training of the mental faculties.
Together, let's use the PLE to give our students a better web learning environment and a better classroom learning experience.
A lesson plan on Helen Keller can teach students about the common problem of blindness as well as their role in helping handicapped people in society.
It also can teach students the sense of appreciation that God has gifted talents equally to everyone, regardless of caste, creed, racial discrimination, or any mental or physical handicap.
