SUMMARY:Seminar on awareness and management of Academic\, emotional & Behavior
DESCRIPTION:A student’s behavior can affect her/his ability to learn as well as other students‘ learning environment. Students who behave disruptively by bullying other students\, talking during lectures or by requiring the teacher to interrupt lessons to discipline them can have a negative effect on an entire classroom. Characteristics and behaviors associated with emotional disturbance and behavioral problems may include aggressive or anti-social behavior; inattentiveness; distractibility and impulsiveness; impaired social interactions; a general inability to cope with the routine of daily tasks. \nAcademic\, emotional and behavioral problems can affect a student’s energy level\, concentration\, dependability\, mental ability\, and optimism\, hindering performance. Research suggests that depression is associated with lower grade point averages and that co-occurring depression and anxiety can increase this association. Proper counseling and psychotherapy services are used to manage academic\, emotional and behavioral problems. \nFor this purpose\, Seminar On Awareness and Management of Academic\, Emotional & Behavior Problems among University Studentswas conducted on Thursday\, 24-10-2019. A huge number of students participated and they learn how they can identify when someone is suffering from Academic\, Emotional & Behavior Problems. If they are unable to manage by themselves\, they should approach the counselor. Our respected HOC also discussed the counseling services for students in SZABIST Islamabad Campus.

SUMMARY:RAISING AWARENESS AGAINST DENGUE
DESCRIPTION:Students of Community Services Semester 1 (Social Sciences) were assigned task to disseminate awareness on Dengue Fever among those who have less exposure to media and information but exposed most of the time to conditions that make them vulnerable to Dengue fever. \nStudents were given detail information about the incubation period of dengue\, clinical presentation of dengue\, type of dengue such as hemorrhagic dengue and etiology\, diagnosis and clinical management of the illness. Students were divided into different groups and were assigned to disseminate information among support staff of SZABIST. \nThe students reached out all such people not just within the premises of SZABIST but outside SZABIST too. The results indicated that only 20% were aware of the illness and that too because they have someone in their family members who suffered from dengue fever. Few of the information receivers responded that their family members are facing the symptoms but they are treating it at home. The awareness gave them insight to adopt precautionary measures and consult doctors well in time.
