Activities @ Samarthanam:
The students of MCA visited the “Samarthanam trust”, a training-cum-enabling institute for disabled children on 31/10/2019. The following activities were done as part of the visit. They visited the classrooms, interacted with them and looked at all the handcrafts that they had created. In addition, they also visited the musical room wherein one of our students performed mimicry to entertain the children. Our students came to know the specialized software and the assistive technologies used in the institute. The height of the institute is that they run a BPO centre where the blind people assist in the various activities of the BPO. Finally, a special lunch was offered to the children by the MCA students.
We thank the Management, Principal for permitting us to visit the trust.
