Mock Election in Classroom | Step-by-Step Activity for Students

Описание: In this activity, students learn how elections work by taking part in a complete mock election. The process includes everything from announcements to voting.
Here’s what we cover:

• Announcement of Election and Nominations
Students are informed about the election. Interested candidates file their nominations and share why they want to contest.

• Election Campaign
Candidates prepare simple speeches, posters or slogans. They interact with classmates, share ideas and explain why they should be elected.

• Polling Booth Setup
A classroom corner is turned into a polling booth. Duties like polling officer, voter list checking and maintaining secrecy are assigned to students.

• Casting Votes
Students vote one by one using a mock EVM. They follow real voting steps like showing their name on the voter list and casting the ballot secretly.

• Counting and Result
After voting, ballots are counted in front of everyone. The candidate with the highest votes is declared the winner.

This activity helps students understand the democratic process in a practical and engaging way.
