 Time management skills

students who participate in co-curricular activities & Teachers who have arranged
those activities should have a greater understanding of time management

They should learn to prioritize their work and in short time they manage to complete
the task they are committed to.

 Needed Exposure to a vast range of activities

students who participate in co-curricular activities and teachers who have
organized should be able to see a new horizon with a number of creative
possibilities.
A vast range of activities helps them understand their own knacks and
potentials. It can be anything from participating in a theater group and
exploring their inner artist to competing in sports
 10. Educational Implication

Teachers and school administrations have to think seriously and plan for their co-curricular
and extra curricular activities since they undoubtedly benefit the student’s academic
achievements and they develop the learner’s autonomy and effectiveness.

Co-curricular activities are the true practical experience received to students. The
theoretical knowledge gets strengthened when a relevant co-curricular activity is
organized. Through the practical experiences students acquire knowledge, and they
use the knowledge in their life also.

Co-curricular and extracurricular activities are a good breather from the regular
classroom teaching and refresh the child’s mind to concentrate better.

By discussing all the areas relating to those activities it seems necessary to introduce
these activities in the school. These activates should be arragned at district level, state
level, & National Level.
Heads of institute and teacher should select types and topics of Co-Curricular
Activities.

Different types of co-curricular activities have different kinds of benefits. Studies

have shown that artistic activities help children to develop creative expression and
problem-solving skills. While musical activities focus on developing patience, sports
activities generally help to improve coordination. But in general, it is found that those
who take part in co-curricular activities also have a higher rate of academic success.
Thousands of cases are found where co-curricular activities have increased students’
motivation along with their attendance.

Best aspect of Co-curricular activities at school is that they are part of academics, and
makes teaching and learning experience exciting for both students and teachers.
Students through classroom activities like quizzes, debates, recitation and any more
academic games learn better.

School should encourage students to participate in extracurricular activities because

they help in a great deal
