SECTION A
ROLL NO:
Dear Students,
In this fast-paced world, one finds it difficult to spare time to stop and reflect on various life
events. When this happens, it is possible that one feels that all the efforts had gone in the wrong
direction and one is still far away from his or her goal. The art of achieving goal lies in
understanding our self, building on our strengths and overcoming weaknesses. This facilitates
the process of self-awareness, self-acceptance and progression towards self-reform- a key to
Happiness. Through experiential training, Behavioural Science Course would facilitate
movement towards self-reform and develop better interpersonal skills to achieve personal and
professional success.
The LAP is an integral part of the Behavioural Science Course. It is a tool for introspection,
self-exploration and self-governance. It involves an initiative to reflect on the discussions and
activities during the various workshops of Behavioural Science Courses. It also involves writing
down personal learning during class exercises and discussions.
This Learning Articulation Portfolio may cover following information as a self-report:
This Portfolio works as an assessment and evaluation tool for self-knowledge and will further
help you develop the ability to:
• Monitor events in your life and make decisions for the present and future.
For successful completion of the Behavioural Science programme, you are required to write
about your experiences and learning from each activity and discussion during all workshops in
this portfolio. Writing the portfolio will definitely help in inculcating the learning and bringing
positive change in your behaviour and personality.
Your Personal Portfolio will be reviewed at the end of each semester till the completion of the
Programme. Self Assessment, Self Analysis, Synthesis, Focus, Exploration, Honest Expression,
Initiative and Consistency are some elements that will help you to maintain this Personal
portfolio and enhance Behavioural Skills for success in life.

(Entry Level)
I describe myself as someone who always wants to help others and keeps the well-being of the people
around her before her own. I want to help others and motivate them to work hard in their lives.
If I could do anything for work, no matter the skills I do or don’t have, it would be to create a platform
If money didn’t matter, I would spend most of my time doing some travelling around the world.
But considering present situations I aspire to become .I would like to pursue my masters and then join an
My perfect day starts with a cup of black coffee and ends with a heavy dinner consisting of some non-
vegetarian dish.
I could be happier today if I didn’t care about what people thought about me in the past.
Something I’ve wanted to change in my life is putting a lot of pressure on myself which ultimately affects
my mental health.
One skill that I always wanted to learn is, _a form of martial arts and swimming.
Writing my own song is something that I always wish to do, but don’t have time.
And I will use it this year to_be honest with myself and not be to hard on myself.
I draw most energy by listening to music, recording covers of songs, learning a new language. Since the
past 1 year I have been very much invested in learning the Korean language and their culture.
A person I admire most are my parents because _I know that they are always going to be there for me
A book that inspired me the most is anything by Ruskin Bond, because _he came up with stories from the
simplest aspects of life. It made me realize how simple life is and how much we complicate it.

Problem-solving style, based on the work of Carl Jung, a noted psychologist, is one measure representing
social traits. It reflects the way a person goes about gathering and evaluating information in solving
problems and making decisions.
Information gathering involves getting and organizing data for use. Styles of information
gathering vary from sensation to intuitive.
o Sensation-type individuals prefer routine and order and emphasize well-defined details in
gathering information; they would rather work with known facts than look for
possibilities.
o By contrast, intuitive- type individuals prefer the “big picture.” They like solving new
problems, dislike routine, and would rather look for possibilities than work with facts.
The second component of problem solving, evaluation, involves making judgments about how to
deal with information once it has been collected. Styles of information evaluation vary from an
emphasis on feeling to an emphasis on thinking.
o Feeling-type individuals are oriented toward conformity and try to accommodate
themselves to other people. They try to avoid problems that may result in disagreements.

o Thinking-type individuals use reason and intellect to deal with problems and downplay
emotions.

own as well.

- Ann Lander
I will be interacting with more people from now on open myself to new ideas. I will also work
on being more optimistic.
III) Key learning (based on class activities, role plays, discussions, analysis etc.):
We should always work toward building ourselves up, focusing on our physical as well as
mental health is very important. I also got to interact with some of my classmates with whom I
hadn’t even spoken with before.
I have always faced problems with interacting with new people. I always wonder what the
other person might think about me and that really restricts me from being who I am.
V) What did I do well (Both inside & outside the class):
I focused on improving myself and facing my problems. I started interacting with new people
also.
I realized that sometimes I really underestimate myself and couldn’t trust myself.
Leadership, speaking up in class, all of these aspects get restricted because of my under
confidence.
I have made some new friends who give me the confidence that I need along with the faith I
require.
