“We don’t listen, we hear “in its Presentation Lab on March 24, 2015 in the guidance of Prof.(Dr.) Dr.N.K.Trikha, Advisor, SJMC  and Prof. M.Alam, Associate Dean, SJMC. This program

(Adler, R. et al. 2001).In this presentation students leant about the difference between listening and hearing skills.They were able to know that in order to listen effectively they need to use more than just ears. A good listener would listen not only to what was being said, but also to what was left unsaid or only partially said. Effective listening involves observing body language and noticing inconsistencies between verbal and non-verbal messages.In this Presentation the barriers to effective listening, and ten keys to effective listening were explained  and also why listening skill was  important for Journalism.This was a combined presentation for BJMC II, IV and VI Semester and MJMC II and IV Semester students in which 103 students participated. It was an enlightening session for all the students.
