FOSTERING RESILIENCE AMONG STUDENTS

Dr. Alaka Das

Abstract :

 

Recent discussion of resilience in the educational media considers student’s mental wellbeing as a growing challenge   requiring greater attention. Resilience is often defined as the ability to recover, to bounce back from adversity to adjust easily with change. In individual, the development of resilience is linked to the number of factors that contribute positively to a person’s overall emotional and physical wellbeing. But every student may not acquire that natural ability of bouncing back, especially in this competitive age. To reverse the trend of reduced self efficacy and emotional resilience in young adults, we have to re–examine our approaches to parenting and create condition that encourage and enable parents to allow their children more freedom   than is currently in the norm. In this article, an attempt has been made to discuss the nature of resilience’, its factors and strategies for building resilience among students.
