SUMMARY:YOUTH LED: What do the NERDS do differently
DESCRIPTION:There’s a popular notion that “the Nerds” ace exams with flying color’s because they  don’t have a life beyond academics. there’s another notion that there are some who can learn and some who can’t which is an irreversible policy of life. However\, these are all notions that can be broken as easily as they were made. In this session\, you will learn about evidence based strategies and tactics that will help you tackle the challenge of learning\, not using a google recommended strategy like eating 20 carrots will make your brains vision clear. You’ll enter as a novice and exit with enough knowledge to become an expert at learning\, or close to it.

SUMMARY:YOUTH LED: Changing Your Life To The Better Course!
DESCRIPTION:With the lockdown due to Covid-19\, I feel like everyone has got themselves stuck into what I like to call The Rut Phase. A Rut Phase is a phase where you procrastinate on every task that comes your way. You don’t feel motivated to do anything\, not even get out of bed first thing in the morning. And not only does The Rut Phase mess with your productivity and motivation\, but it also messes with your financial judgment which eventually will turn you bankrupt living in the streets.\nIn this course\, we will discuss 6 main points:\n– Mindset is key; Where we will talk about how changing your mindset can change your decisions that will eventually change your whole life.\n– Time management; Where we will discuss how organizing your time can open up new potentials and goals in your life you didn’t know you had the time for.\n– Task management; Where we will discuss organizing your tasks in order depending on priority and due dates.\n– Study smarter not harder; where we’ll discuss the importance of this theory and how it’s done efficiently.\n– The true definition of winning; Where we will talk about when to know if you are winning or losing\, and how to change the losing part.\n– Being smart with money; where we will discuss the importance of investing your money and how to avoid spending them on useless stuff! \nIn every section\, we will have small discussions about public opinions and I’ll convince each and every one of you that there is always room for improvement besides how to effectively improve on it.

SUMMARY:YOUTH LED: Fake News\, Lies\, and Propaganda: Identifying Fallacies and Disinformation in a chaotic world
DESCRIPTION:False news and lies have always been part of media history. And today\, it is more prominent than ever. From satirical stories to false contextualization and from manipulated headlines to fabricated content\, fake news is everywhere. Lies travel with frightening speed on the internet\, random claims spark angry backlashes\, and disinformation is commonplace. In such a chaotic world\, it is important to have media literacy – identifying fake news and fallacies in journalism becomes an essential skill to survive. This workshop will throw light on the outreach of mass media\, the role it plays in shaping public opinion\, the impacts fake news can have\, the psychological and practical reasons it spreads quickly\, what we can do to combat its spread\, and more. There will be several audience engagement activities\, including a word cloud activity\, some GK-based questions\, reflection and opinion-based discussion\, analysis of fake news articles\, audience polls\, etc. This session will hopefully make the audience more aware and careful in the current information environment.

SUMMARY:YOUTH LED: How procrastination can lead you to success?
DESCRIPTION:The workshop exists solely to debunk the myth that “procrastination is for losers” and replace it with “procrastination is for the successful”. I want the attendees to walk away feeling like they can turn their procrastination into success. The attendees thoughts should be provoked by the end of the workshop so they can shape the concepts I will share to their own lives.

SUMMARY:YOUTH LED: Don't Speak\, Communicate
DESCRIPTION:As the name suggests\, this workshop stresses the importance of communication\, not just speaking. While speaking simply involves delivering a speech or a lecture in front of an audience\, communication focuses on making that speech heard\, making your message understood\, be it in front of one person or hundreds. If you often avoid asking doubts in classes\, are afraid to present your views in group projects\, often get ignored in your friend circle or feel shy speaking in front of groups of people\, this workshop is for you.As a teenager\, I hope to share my journey with communication skills building and give tangible advice as to how to get the confidence to speak in front of an audience\, make your speeches meaningful and learn to convert your thoughts into words in an effective manner. I’ll also show examples of the do’s and don’t’s of communication and hold interactive exercises to better understand the concepts. Overall\, you’ll definitely return as a better communicator after the workshop.

SUMMARY:Diversity Atlas: Leadership through Diversity
DESCRIPTION:What is diversity? Is it a school policy? Is it a recruitment quota? Is it rewriting policy for recruitment so if a diverse person happens to apply\, they are not discriminated against in policy? Or is it a new way of thinking\, a new way of outreach\, and the future of our global village? Diversity Atlas is a technological tool that allows users to discover language\, religion\, ethnicity\, country of birth and a range of other demographic dimensions of diversity that will help young leaders understand what a robust diversity mindset is.In this workshop participants will have the opportunity to build personal and leadership skills by exploring other cultures such as aboriginal\, refugee and migrant worker experiences. The workshop will also demonstrate how educators use Diversity Atlas to enhance learning of empathy in classrooms today.
