Dr Sudha Balagopalan (Dean Academics & Lead – Vocational Awareness, ISV South Asia WG) who herself is a source of motivation to students gave encouraging examples from her own experience and described the activities of ISV and inspired students to be a self-motivator. VSEC volunteers Akhila M (S7, ECE Dept), Anjana Krishna C R (S3, EEE Dept) and Fredisha K Francis (S3, EEE Dept) engaged the students with hands-on session using SNAP CIRCUIT kits.
