GAMEOVER | Short Film
GAMEOVER is a Short Film based on incidents that play out between a student and his teacher. Hari is a Class 12 student who faces many problems and emotional anxiety due to exam results. Will he be able to overcome this crisis or will it be GAMEOVER for him? GAMEOVER is a film that was made especially for the Enikku Pattum Campaign. ‘Enikku Pattum’ means ‘I can do it’ in Malayalam. The Enikku Pattum Campaign aims to give hope to students experiencing stress, anxiety and depression due to academic pressure and exams. According to NCRB records, we lose one student every hour. The number of students attempting suicide does not have a proper record. What leads students to take these drastic steps? Academic pressure takes away the confidence of the students. One second of hopelessness can take a life. But a word of encouragement or a listening ear can provide hope and bring positive change in their life. Join this campaign to raise awareness and do your bit for the cause. A conscious effort from you can change a student's life. Let us join hands together to put an end to student suicides and support students suffering from exam anxiety.

POMODORO TECHNIQUE - My Favorite Tool to Improve Studying and Productivity
🍅 Updated version of our Pomodoro Guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlW8FxjHbeg The Pomodoro Technique is one of my favorite ways to beat procrastination and maintain productivity and focus. The pomodoro technique utilizes alternating study and break times of 25 and 5 minutes, respectively. Each of these 25 minute bursts of productivity is called a "pomodoro", named after the tomato timer used by Francesco Cirillo in the 1990's. The increasing popularity and widespread use of the pomodoro technique is no coincidence - it truly works. In this video, I go over 1. Brief history and theory of the Pomodoro Technique 2. How to Use the Pomodoro Technique 3. Distractions 4. When to Use the Pomodoro Technique 5. Modifications to the standard 25/5 Pomodoro scheme Music: https://soundcloud.com/gbeats/notthatway2 WEBSITE: https://medschoolinsiders.com TWITTER: https://twitter.com/MedInsiders FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/medschoolinsiders INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/medschoolinsiders #pomodoro #pomodorotechnique #productivityhack The Pomodoro Technique(TM) was created by Francisco Cirillo.

Aim Higher Than 4.0
What keeps you going to class? What gets you up early to study for the exam? What keeps you up late working on that paper? For most students, the answer is grades. Grades are the currency of college campuses — the way we measure our progress and compare ourselves with others. But when the A becomes the aim, we’ve really missed the point of our education. For the Christian, school — whatever discipline, whatever course, whatever professor — is about worship. We should be aiming higher than a 4.0. In this two-minute, Matt Reagan sheds light on the shallow goal of grades, and calls us to learn for the sake of our worship and joy. --- Matt Reagan is a veteran campus minister.

You’re Not a Student First
“I’m a student first.” Campus ministers have heard the excuse a thousand times as they challenge Christian college students to invest their lives in evangelism, disciplemaking, and service to others. It’s a line young collegiates have been fed by well-meaning parents and counselors, who want them to guard their study time and succeed in school. But the danger can come in betraying the Christian’s deepest identity and the calling that far surpasses that of a student, and every other. To prepare you for heading back to campus as a Christian, this two-minute video helps the Christian collegiate reckon with the most fundamental question of each new semester. --- Matt Reagan is a veteran campus minister. He serves as campus director for Campus Outreach. https://desiringgod.org/authors/matt-reagan https://desiringgod.org/articles/youre-not-a-student-first

Where Do Others Fit in Your Schedule?
“All of life is a medium for relationship,” says Matt Reagan. In some cultures in the world, this statement would seem so patently obvious that folks would look at you funny if you said it. “Yes,” they might answer, “what else would life be for?” But this is not obviously true to Americans. To us, all of our individual lives are about individual liberty and the individual pursuit of happiness. Relationships, in fact, are often perceived as obstacles to our individual life goals and jettisoned as needed. We view ourselves as free agents. Community is optional, something to abandon if it interferes with our individual preferences or goals. So this makes the Bible counter-cultural to Americans. Jesus’s command to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:39) and Paul’s to “count others more significant than yourselves” (Philippians 2:3), while hard for all humans, is especially difficult for Americans to comprehend because it cuts against a core value of individual liberty. So we need to hear what Matt says and take it to heart. His message is targeted toward college and graduate students, but all of us must come to terms with his question, “Who are you trying to help?” It’s souls that God values. So if our life goals aren’t about living souls, we need a significant biblical recalibration. --- Matt Reagan is a veteran campus minister.

Education Is a Privilege, Not a Burden
If only we could have college without the homework. The real problem with school, you see, is all the classes — the lectures, the assignments, the papers, and the exams. The whole experience has so much potential if it weren’t weighed down with the burdens of learning. It’s the familiar lament of most students, the dirge rising up from desks on campuses all across the nation. We all know it’s not really justified or even serious, but it doesn’t keep anyone from grumbling. But before you let yourself complain again about the suffering of schoolwork, think about how empowering learning can be. This two-minute video helps the Christian student see studying for what it really is, a rare and awesome privilege. --- Matt Reagan is a veteran campus minister. He serves as campus director for Campus Outreach. https://desiringgod.org/authors/matt-reagan https://desiringgod.org/articles/education-is-a-privilege-not-a-burden
