favour amounting to 'B' grade with 73.17%. 17 members have expressed their concern for want

of improved facilities. Their percentage is 13.82%.

The comparative analysis of the opinions expressed by members of the Alumni hints

at the improvement of certain requirements. The opinion also reveals suggestive remarks for

total automation and ICT facilities. The consolidated opinion also indicates that the support

services available on campus are to be up graded to cater to the timely needs of the student

community. The feedback also suggests conducting more number of extra- curricular activities

and awareness programmes.


ANNEXURE-III

Report on Parents Feedback 2014-15

The Feedback forms were given to 100 parents. Among those 81 parents have

responded on time and submitted the filled in forms. After receiving the forms, the members of

the feedback committee have scrutinized and awarded the grades of 'A', 'B' and 'C'.

Taking into consideration the number of positive remarks given by the parents,

grades have been awarded. Out of 81, 50 parents have given the 'A' grade that amounts to

61.72%. The opinion of 16parents carries 'B' grade with 19.75% and 12 parents have expressed

their remarks leading to 'C' grade with 14.81%.

Since the percentage of 'A' grade is comparatively reasonable and higher, it may be

concluded that more parents have expressed their satisfaction with regard to the infrastructural

facilities and learning resources available in the Institution. It is also noticed that the opinion of

'B' and 'C' group amounts to suggest that the up gradation and the improvement is also needed.

The feedback also underlines the necessity of organizing more number of co-curricular and

extra- curricular activities.


ANNEXURE-IV

FEEDBACK ANALYSIS

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES AND EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES 2014-15

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES 2014-15

As a part of institutional / academic activities, feedback was collected from the students

of different programmes about their participation in co-curricular and extra-curricular activities

during 2014-15. A proforma was prepared and administrated to students to take stock of

information whether they are interested to participate in a variety of activities organized for their

overall development. The feedback committee took the task of classifying and analyzing the

collected data. The collected data are converted into percentage form for the purpose of accurate

analysis.

Out of the total admitted students 30% have participated in essay competition held at

College level and organized by University and other organizations.

15% of our students actively took part in debate competition and few of them won prizes.

This statistics helped us to encourage students through providing incentives and suitable

guidance by the convener of cultural association so as to increase participation in debate and

elocution competition.

As per feedback, 35% of the students are doing home assignments sincerely. It has

warranted us to make other students to prepare home assignments to enhance mastery over the

subject.

It is a good sign that 38% of students voluntarily prepared papers on allotted topics from

the syllabus and presented them in class rooms. It is the best practice in the institution where a

student can develop the skill of oration and the art of communication.

The feedback statistics show that 26% of the students have the curiosity of doing

research. As there is an increasing demand for human resource expertise in research activities,

the institution has been providing several opportunities through involving students in survey

works.

About 26% of our students have participated in cultural activities, group dance, mimicry,

solo, flute play, rangoli competition etc., and such activities help students to grow mentally and

physically.

31% of the students have shown interest towards sports and games. It is comparatively

higher than the national average. The department of physical education takes personal care in

creating interest among students in sports.

For about 21% students have participated in other activities which add a lot for the

enrichment of their personality.


ANNEXURE-IV

EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES (E.C.A. – 2014-15)

The institution has given equal importance to extracurricular activities. The feedback

statistical figures reveal that 33% students went on study tours organized by some of the

departments such as Commerce and Management, History, Chemistry, Botany, Biology etc. The

study tours are organized every year to give an opportunity to students to observe historical

monuments, rivers, plants, production process, marketing, management closely and directly. It

helps to get first hard information.

29% of the students attended rallies conducted by College and other agencies about

AIDS Awareness, and preservation of environment on the eve of Women‟s Day.

About 26% of them took part in awareness programme; Students themselves wrote

scripts on AIDS awareness and enacted it in villages. The College also arranged such

programmes to create awareness among students regarding prevention of AIDS and preservation

of natural resources and eradication of gender discrimination.

As per the University and Army fixed quota of enrolling students to N.S.S. and N.C.C.,

19% of the students enrolled as NSS volunteers and 15% as NCC cadets. They have participated

in all the activities conducted under the banner of the two units.

24% of the students participated in blood donation camp, eye testing camp and other

activities organized by YRC.

Again, 24% of our students attended and involved in marketing fairs, exhibition etc. to

gain practical knowledge and to exhibit their hidden potentialities.

The above figures depict that the students have sufficient scope to take part in co-

curricular and extra-curricular activities. To cater to vivid cultural and sports desires of students,

different platforms have been provided by establishing cultural associations and cells.

ANNEXURE-V

BEST PRACTICES

1. Title of the Practice : Conducting Surveys

2. Goal:

Creating Research sensitization.

Providing experimental learning to students.

Identifying and understanding the significant social problems.

Improving interaction of students with the public.

Developing communication skills in learners.

3. Context:

Education without research attitude is a decorative one. Research attitude is the

need of the hour. It develops the skill of applying the theoretical knowledge to the real

needs of life. The wide gap existing between the knowledge and life would be bridged by

making students take up survey activities.

Designing the Programme:

The advanced learners among students are identified. The relevant burning issues

of society are identified by the staff of each department. The students, advanced

learners, are formed into different groups and provided guidance to work on a particular

social issue. The questionnaires are prepared under the guidance of staff members to

elicit individual information from the target group of people who are related to the survey

problem. Each student is given some number of questionnaires and after collecting the

information, it is analyzed and reports would be prepared.

Implementation:

After designing the programme, the survey team is sent to meet the target group

of people. The team works under the guidance of a staff member at every stage and until

the final report is prepared.

4. The Practice:

The survey designs are implemented or rather conducted by forming the survey

teams consisting of students from II, IV and VI semesters.

The number of target group of people to meet is decided and then each student is

given certain number of questionnaires and they, then go and meet the people to get the

questionnaires filled. In case of some respondents, if they cannot understand the

questionnaire, that is explained to them and answers are got. Depending on the number

of students and questionnaires and people to meet with, time period of ten to fifteen days

is fixed. After getting all the information, the filled in questionnaires are analyzed and

on the basis of the opinions expressed, a comprehensive report is prepared. The report


highlights the required reforms to be made with regard to the chosen social issue. The

prepared report would be either published in newspapers or submitted to the authorities

concerned to take proper action to solve the problem.

The practice of conducting surveys is the best one from two important points of

view. One is helping government to solve social issues and the other is developing

practical research attitude among students which would make them think in a systematic

way and enables them to apply the knowledge learnt in the classroom to the problems of

day to day life.

5. Evidence of Success:

The practice has achieved more than 80% of the expected outcome. The targets

set have been successfully met with. The review results are as follows:-

This practice has increased the confidence level of students who have participated in

survey work.

The students have learned how to interact with the public.

The students are exposed to notice the different cultural and social backgrounds

which govern their responses to others.

Some students have evinced interest to meet more number of people.

The enthusiasm of students is more in participating in survey activities.

This practice proves that when learning is related to real life situations and between

person and person, the process of learning becomes natural, easy and enjoyable for

learners.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

Though in the beginning, the learners could not show much interest, as they did

not have previous experience, later in course of implementation, they become more and

more active. So, they could easily overcome the minor problems in executing the

strategic plan of action.

The College authorities have granted sufficient funds and extended all sorts of

help to implement this practice. The guidance of well experienced teaching faculty and

co-operation of non-teaching faculty has added to the success of the best practice.

ANNEXURE-VI

BEST PRACTICE

A BRIEF REPORT FOR THE YEAR 2014–15

1. Title of the Practice : Study Tour

2. Goal:

This practice is aimed at providing personal experience and more of feeling what

they learn about within the four walls, classroom.

Making them learn the differences between what is mentioned and how it is

mentioned in books and what really exists in the field.

Subjecting the learners to think over the reasons for differences between reality and

written things.

Providing the learners a chance to know that things in reality are more impressive and

easy to learn than those which are described about in text books.

Ultimately, driving home the point that wherever one goes one can learn something

new.

Students are made to realize that educational institutions are not the only places to

learn and much waits outside to learn.

Making students realize that books are not the only learning resources, there are

multiple forms of learning resources.

3. The Context:

First and foremost, the contextual features are providing academic awareness that

knowledge accruing is not just filling the mind with abstract ideas. The existing

educational context in modern society does the single job of instilling information into

learners‟ minds giving no room for feeling. It has created a kind of imbalance between

the mind and heart of the learner. To address this problem, study tours and other related

programmes like skill developing practical programmes too are designed deliberately.

Challenges in Designing:

There are various things to be taken into account while designing the programme.

Some notable ones are: Financial, Transport, Permissions from both the management and

the industry or particular area intended to visit and the accommodation and food

facilities. All these are to be managed one by one efficiently and they influence the

nature of designing the programmes.

Challenges in Implementing:

While implementing the practice of specific study tour, care is taken in such a

way that everything should go in a scheduled way without any delays or disturbances

from any one of the people involved in this practice. The general challenges that crop up

at implementation stages are the interest and attention for the systematic design and

schedules that are there in main organizers must also be there in all other persons who

have to move collectively to make the practice a successful one. When coherence is not

there challenges rise up.


4. The Practice:

The practice of „Study Tour‟ is taken up in the second half of the semester.

Depending on the place and purpose of study, the students of three years degree together

or one particular year is decided. The department which conducts the tour gets

permissions from the Principal, Management and from the authorities concerned and

from the place or industry they are going to visit; permissions or rather undertaking

letters are collected even from parents on behalf of their wards.

The head of the department allots different duties to staff members to take care of

key things to be arranged. Among the students, the advanced learners are entrusted with

certain responsibilities. On the fixed day at fixed time, the students and staff meet to get

into the vehicle engaged for the purpose and after reaching the destination, they go to the

arranged place of accommodation. Later at the appointed time, they go to the industry /

public visiting place and the staff or the people in the industry explain the student how

the industry works. All the information related to the industry through showing different

parts is given to students. In case of study tour to a historical place, the guides would

explain along with the staff of the subject related. Afterwards the important points jotted

down while visiting the place is put together in the form of a report which would be

beneficial from academic point of view for next batches of students.

This practice in the field of Indian Higher Education lays foundation for National

Integrity of the country later by bringing together students of different backgrounds and

developing friendship among them.

The constraints or limitations for this practice are the expected. Number of

learners may not participate because of parentental support lacking and the

apprehensions also of untoward happenings likely to happen. The hesitations,

apprehensions and in some cases financial constraints of the learners are the major

limitations of this practice.

5. Evidence of Success:

The immediate evidence of this practice among learners is their academic

performance has improved. Their confidence level has increased. Their understand

capacity improved. All these things finally add to the better performance in the

exams.

As an experiential learning, this practice enables students not to forget so easily the

knowledge as the learning from text books. The result of this practice serves as

foundation for learners to learn advanced things easily. Even for staff members, it

becomes rather easy to explain the tough concepts when the learners have got the

foundational knowledge.

The results got indicate that this is the best practice for getting more involvement of

students in academic activities.

This practice also provides a chance to identify the original talents of students which

would be useful for staff for giving further guidance proper to them.


6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

Since the well experienced staff has properly planned, there was no worth mentioning

problems encountered. The co-operation of the College authorities also added a lot to

the success of this practice.

With regard to resources required, the budgetary allocation of the amount for this

kind of activities in College budget has solved the problem of financial resources.

The other kinds of resources required are easily managed with the help from various

sources.

SURVEY REPORT 2014-15

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN MODERN SOCIETY

The Department of English has conducted a survey on “The Significance English

Language in Modern Society”, involving Basic English students, in the present academic

year 2014-15. The students have been picked from different classes.

This survey is aimed at knowing the opinions of the people in society about the

need of English language. There has been a great deal of hue and cry on one side about

the undue domination of English language on local languages and on the other side the

growing desire of the people of various sections of society to get their children educated

in English medium institutions. This survey was intended to find out new direction to

English language in order to protect the local languages cultures.

The students of the survey team have met 86 people with questionnaires seeking

their opinions on the need of language in different situations and contexts of life. The

students have met 63 people of below 35 years age and 54 people with degree and above

qualifications and again of those 47 are from rural areas, of the 86 all the remaining

belong to the other opposite group who are to much extent are utilitarian.

About the necessity of English language in social relations, 68 persons have

positively responded and 18 have responded negatively. It means that these days with

more western culture and commercial relations, English language might have been felt

necessary.

With regard to the need of English Language at workplace 72 people, that is more

than 90% people said that there is need for English at workplace. Similarly, 72 people

expressed their opinion that English language is essential when they go outside the state

they live in. Though local languages are there, in all the States, English, according to

them, is a link language.

Of all the questions, 97% positive responses have been given to the question

about the need of English in using mobiles and internet. Of course, mobiles and internet

have become inescapable needs of modern life.

75% people i.e. 93% of the respondents have felt that English language is very

much essential for parents and others for teaching and guiding children. This indicates

that modern life makes people feel English as necessary. This is a kind of threat to local

languages. Any language growing up at the cost of other is not healthy. To check this,

true ways of protecting local languages and cultures must be examined properly.

The response of 60 people i.e. 80% indicates that knowledge of English is a social

status symbol. It means English language serves only the purpose of decoration to life

and a matter of pride. It means modern life and society more important to advancement

in social life but not internal spiritual life. Therefore, English appears to be a temptress

to seduce one from one‟s own cultural path.


The survey, thus, indicates that English language is an essential language from

modern life and society point of view and it is a language of fancy and pride from the

point of view of Indian Culture. If the perception and concepts of language are changed

to a right direction, then English language ceases to be a disturbing language. It remains

as one of the Indian International languages.
