Best Practices - No- 1 1. Title of the Practice Using Information Communication Technology (ICT).

2. Goal The present age is the age of information communication technology (ICT). The aim of the institution is to make the teachers and the students computer literate. As the institution is in the rural area the students come from illiterate, economically poor and socially disadvantaged families. The institutional goals and objectives are to up lift and up grade the learners from rural region to face the global challenges.

Therefore the institution has established the computer laboratory for students and the teachers for the easy access. The students are able to use ICT in their learning. The teachers are using the ICT and LCD projector for the effective teaching.

Arts, Commerce and Science College, Varangaon Page 143

Self-Study Report

3. The Context For the use of ICT the institution has taken the initiative in promoting ICT based teaching learning. For this purpose the institution has provided the required facilities to the teachers and the students like audio-visuals aids, LCD Projector, VCD, CDs, Computers, Printers and all sorts of reprographic facilities. There are inverter and UPS back up for the power cut and to provide uninterrupted power supply. The students and the teachers are using the ICT facility in an effective way.

At the beginning the teachers and the administrative staff was reluctant in using the computer either for administrative purpose or for the teaching learning recourses. Slowly the teachers and the administrative staff started taking interest in ICT and they inspired the students for computer literacy. Now days the students are using ICT for their curriculum needs and seeking information from various fields. It is our partial success. We are hopeful that in time to come all the students and staff members will be able in using the ICT in a more effective way.

4. The Practice Using ICT is the best practice adopted by the institution. For the effective implementation of this practice the institution has done the following things.

1. Creating Awareness of ICT: We have started awareness campaign to propagate the importance of ICT aptitude among the students, the teachers and non teaching employees of the institution. The resource persons are frequently invited to inculcate the importance and significance of the ICT based tools and their application in human life in the modern society. The teachers are using the ICT and LCD projector for the effective teaching. The researchers have found that the ICT is very helpful in their research. Due to the ICT the researchers found the information on the PhD topics and on which subjects the research has been done. They get the information related to the research projects, seminars, workshops and conferences. There is an easy access to the electronic journals which are useful the research activity. While the students also are benefitted by the ICT tools in collecting information and preparing their practical and projects.

2. ICT based teaching and learning: the students are very much interested in the ICT based teaching and learning. The teachers are also keen to use it. But there are certain limitations in the

Arts, Commerce and Science College, Varangaon Page 144

Self-Study Report

use of ICT. The language teachers find it difficult in providing the sense while teaching literature. The students sometimes loose the zest in learning and took interest only in observing the things casually. They find the lecture method tiresome and bore some as compared to ICT.

3. Available ICT tools: The institution has given priority in purchasing the ICT tools.

Sr. Name of the tool Quantity No.

1 Desktop Computer 18

2 LCD projectors 01

3 Inverter/UPS 04

4 Printers 03

5 Xerox machine 01

Due to the ICT resources available in the institution more than 60% of the teachers and the students are using the ICT resources for the teaching and learning. However, we are aware about the constraints and limitations of the institution; as the most challenging factor in this regard is how to change the traditional mentality and make people proactive towards using modern technology. The institution has decided to have 100% computer literacy in the institution in near future.

5. Evidence of Success The success rate of the faculty in the use of ICT and computer literacy.

Target Success Percentage

No. of computer literate faculty 23 18 78.26%

No. of faculty using ICT in 23 14 60.86% teaching

No. of computer literate non 10 06 60.00%

Arts, Commerce and Science College, Varangaon Page 145

Self-Study Report

teaching employees

These results indicate that the institution is rising towards the computer literacy and using the ICT tools. For the students institution has established a multi-purpose computer laboratory with internet facility. Majority of the students are using it. The free access to the internet is provided to the students. The institution aims towards 100% computer literacy, more than 60% of the students are using the ICT tools. Computer literacy is the foundation of the use of ICT facilities. As the campus is enriching day by day and year by year with the ICT based tools and equipments, it is our endeavor to make its optimal use of it. The institution is widening and enlarging its map for the use of ICT facilities.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required There are certain problems occurred related to the technicalities of ICT and other related tools so far as repairing is concerned. There is no expert human resource management available in the institute for the major technical problems. There are also financial problems as the institution is under the administrative body appointed by the state government. So it is quite difficult to increase the ICT tools in the institution.

7. Notes (Optional) For the effective implementation of the best practices needs the management/administrative support and time management. On this basis we are partially successful.

Best Practices - No- 2

1. Title of the Practice - Empowering female students

2. Goal In the present age we find that women are victimized by the people. The female students are physically and mentally tortured by wicked people. Therefore the institution has started female centered programmes like swayam sidhya abhiyan and Yuvati Sabha. The purpose of swayam sidhya abhiyan is to prepare the female students for self defense and strengthen them mentally and

physically to face the challenges in their life. The female students’ ratio in our institution is 1:1. The female students come from the rural area for the higher studies. But due to some problems they stop their education. The aim of swayam sidhya abhiyan and Yuvati Sabha is to provide counseling to the female students by organizing various female centered activities.

3. The Context To empower the female students the institution has provided the infrastructural facilities like girl’s room with attach toilet. There is anti-ragging, Yuvati Sabha and sexual harassment committee. The chairman of the committee is Prof Smt V S Joshi and the members are Sandhya Nikam, Prof K B Patil. The committee looks after the problems of the female students. The institution organizes the programmes like self defense in travel, on the road and in the critical situation for female students. The training programmes on these issues are organized.

At the beginning the female students were reluctant to take part in such programmes but slowly they began to take part and interest in it. The institution organizes the personality development lectures, counseling on hygienic problems, and medical check up camps for female students.

4. The Practice For the effective implementation of empowering female students the institution has done the following things.

1. Creating Awareness: We have started awareness campaign to propagate the female students, the teachers and non teaching employees of the institution. The resource persons are frequently invited to deliver the lectures on empowering the female students.

2. The female students are motivated and encouraged to take part in the institutional activities like Sports, NSS, Youth Festival, Annual Social Gathering and attending various camps and competitions organized at different institutions.

3. Special women centered programmes like “Save Girl Child”,”Literature on Women”, “Rangoli and Mehandi competition”, “Self Defense Camp” are organized.
