Journal 10.0: Teacher type

The IIMUN Cbe Chapter 2016, was just around the corner. I was assigned, a reporter in the International Press, however I was also guiding the juniors, because it was their first time. Running around and getting them together and screaming to silence everyone was a task.

A group of 16 enthusiastic 7^th graders from our school, assembled in the seminar hall, in a bid to thoroughly prepare themselves for the same, with the trust, guidance and support, from us, the DP-1 heads. They were put in the UNEP (United Nations Environmental Program) committee , that held the agenda – Global warming. I was asked to give a briefing session to two students on what the IIMUN is all about and what the research incorporates.

Next, some of the DP-1 students showed to all the junior participants , how a committee session actually happens to give them an overall idea. Much to my surprise, I found myself giving the audience a taste of humour, just so they do not get bored already. The session included the Rules Of Procedure, General Speakers' List, moderated and unmoderated caucuses, points of order/information/personal privelege/parliamentary inquiry. There was a question session, where their doubt were clarified by us.

The students did get a clear picture of how to go about ,at the IIMUN.
