Evaluated scripts are given to the students for two reasons i.e., to ensure transparency and to evaluate themselves.

Internal Marks Committee:

Best Practices # 1

1. Title of the Practice

“Women empowerment through health care education”

2. Objectives of the Practice

The institute enrollments accounts for more than 60 per cent of the student strength is women over the years, majority of them were joined from rural areas with varied conditions of utter poverty, illiteracy, ill- health and superstitious beliefs. Since, in their daily lives most of the girls face barricades to education affected by poverty, cultural norms and practices, poor infrastructure, violence, and fragility.

The objective of this practice is to provide education and health care and remove the misconceptions about various customs and traditions that are prevailing in India which is stopping women from having nutritious food and taking care of her health properly.

3. The Context

Amid all the influencing factors causes for health and success of a women, education is the only factor vital than anything else, the fascinating fact is that more girl students are coming forward to pursue their graduation in our institution. They come from remote villages with varied socio-economic backgrounds, most of them are from under privileged groups and lacks the awareness about many issues related to physical health, mental health, hygiene, nutrition and so on. Thus, the challenging issues that need to be addressed in this respect is to provide them proper tips to get solutions to their common problems. In this respect, our institution started to provide adequate assistance with regard to health tips for girl students in various areas, viz., health and hygiene, mental health, HIV/AIDS awareness, Hemoglobin test and folic acid test, breast cancer awareness, awareness on adolescence problems etc.

4. The Practice

“If you educate a man you educate an individual, however, if you educate a woman you educate a whole family. Women empowered means mother India empowered”.

– Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru

Our institution has created a healthy environment for the girl students by providing free education irrespective of their socio-economic background, this was a special women empowerment initiative of Government of Karnataka through all its established institutions to provide girl fee full reimbursement scheme, apart from that the institution is providing various scholarship schemes to students, like SC/ST Scholarships, OBC Scholarships, Minority Scholarships and Sanchihonnama Merit Scholarship for meritorious girl students etc. In India the women contribute almost half of the total population and is empowered to strengthen the economy.

Education is a milestone for women empowerment because it empowers them to respond to the challenges,

Page 76/99 25-01-2021 09:54:54 Self Study Report of GOVERNMENT FIRST GRADE COLLEGE HAROHALLI to confront their traditional role and change their lives. The access of education to women in rural India is moving at a very slow pace, still there are a large number of women folks are illiterate, the weak, backward and exploited. Hence, educating the women is vital as that will shift the position of women in society, and reduce the inequalities also improves the status of their family. This further leads to fulfill the gender gap of four basic categories such as economic participation & opportunity, educational attainment, health & survival and political empowerment.

We as an institution which is having a greater number of girl students than boys are educating the girls in supporting to the overall development, we put in practice several health and hygiene related programs in every academic year as we believe that, educating girls has a wide range of impact on society and human development, the long term benefits includes enhanced economic development, education for the next generation, positive influence in a child’s life from health to protection from HIV/AIDS, exploitative labour and trafficking, when mothers are educated their children are better nourished and get sick less often. Fewer maternal deaths, women who have been educated are less likely to die during childbirth because they tend to have fewer children, better knowledge of health services during pregnancy and birth, and improved nutrition.

The major constraints were, the girl students were very shy and initially unable to share openly to the Doctors and Health Officers regarding their adolescence and other health & hygiene related problems, refuge to take tests etc.

5. Evidence of Success

It is evident from the efforts made by the institution that, a greater number of girl students from different socio-economic backgrounds, specially the underprivileged groups are coming forward to join the institution to pursue graduation in our college, many of them are progressed to higher education, greater number of passed out students were able to get employment and achieved economic independence and contributing for National development. Drop outs due to health problems were drastically reduced, because of the health tips and the health supplements supplied such as Folic Acid and Iron supplements etc., many of the students were able to come out of the superstitious beliefs, child marriages and child bride issues were reduced due the effective health tips provided by the eminent Heath Officers and Doctors from Primary Health Center, KIDWAI memorial Hospital, NIMHANS and other renowned institutions. This best practice also increased the reputation of our institute, there are number of reputed institutions coming forward to provide the assistance with regard to health and education. As a whole the entire college are happy that the most deserved girl students are benefited with the health programs conduct by our institution.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The major problem encountered in the process of providing these health care awareness programs were getting best Medical Consultants to educate the girl students, educating the girls to adopt the solutions provided by the consultants and to practice the tips provided, and the other problem was there was a lack adequate boldness from the students to come forward and discuss their problems with concerned health officers and doctors.

The resources required are adequate infrastructure and maintenance facilities to conduct more number of this kind of programs.

Best Practices # 2

1. Title of the Practice

“Legal literacy and assistance on account of world day of Social Justice”

2. Objectives of the Practice

Legal literacy empowers students to demand justice, reliability and remedies. It enables to anticipate legal troubles and take the necessary steps in order to prevent their occurrence. Students should be aware of their rights and a brief legal knowledge, to easily approach for consultation and advice, hence confronting/averting the crisis. It is a known fact that ignorance of legal knowledge magnifies the impact of the legal troubles and difficulties when they occur.

The objective of this practice is to impart legal knowledge, as the legal issues appear bigger than they actually are and makes the individual feel unnecessarily intimidated.

The objective of the practice is to “Strengthening community solidarity and supporting grass- roots advocacy.”

3. The Context

All the students of the institution are from rural areas and most of them lack legal literacy, and are not aware of the rights conferred upon them by law and entitlements under the law. It is this absence of legal awareness which is responsible for the deception, exploitation and deprivation of rights and benefits, from which the people suffer in the state. The miserable condition in which the people find themselves can be alleviated to some extent by creating awareness amongst the people. Legal literacy is nothing but an ability to enlighten ourselves about legal issues effecting the society we live in and empowerment of individuals regarding legal issues. Moreover, it helps to promote consciousness of legal culture, participation in the formation of laws and the rule of law. Legal literacy also called Civic Education intends to build public awareness and skills related to legal system. It also refers to a field committed to educate people about law.

4. The Practice

We at our college, every year conduct a full day lecture session with case studies related to legal literacy, on occasion of World Day of Social Justice, to commemorate the accomplishments and recognizing the need to promote collective action to social justice, which includes efforts to tackle issues such as poverty, exclusion, gender equality, unemployment, human rights, and social protections for attaining the social development and human dignity. The topics for educating students about the need for social justice include childhood poverty, global citizenship, human rights, and sustainable development.

This program is conducted in coordination with Kanakapura Taluk Law Committee, Advocates Association Kanakapura and the Police Department Harohalli Circle. Every yer the program is inaugurated and the key note address delivered by the Principal Civil Judge and JMFC, Kanakapura. A team of members will visit the institution and disseminate the knowledge about various legal areas such as, the

Page 78/99 25-01-2021 09:54:54 Self Study Report of GOVERNMENT FIRST GRADE COLLEGE HAROHALLI

IRDA regulations and the process of insurance and claims in case of accidents, RTO rules and traffic violations, Dowry and other violence against women and the consequences, Environmental Laws, Fundamental rights and duties, Consumer Laws, Cyber-crimes and cyber laws, social justice, motor vehicle act etc.

5. Evidence of Success

It is evident from the efforts made by the institution that, the students were able to quickly grasp and put in practice the traffic rules, like obtaining the driving license for riding the two wheelers, started to wear the helmets while riding, insured their vehicles, and educated their family members especially their farm fathers, who are unaware of their rights in availing certain facilities. The students are inculcated with sustainable environmental practices, and reflected practice by making the campus tobacco free and plastic free zone, cleaning the premises and nearby primary health center premises, also they learned how to respect fellow human beings and their rights. Apart from these the institution is successful in creating the graduates as socially responsible, creative and sensible to fight for social justice. As students are considered the future leaders so they would be the best medium in spreading the information related to legal awareness among the people. This practice is also aimed to spread knowledge of the legal rights and duties, to the poor and needy for their various problems.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The major problem encountered in the process of imparting this best practice is that getting appointments of the Principal Judge and JMFC Kanakapura, The Law Committee and the Police Circle Inspector and achieving the coordination with all the team members and bringing them in a single platform. Another important problem encountered in this practice is the level of students to understand the complicated legal provisions were limited, hence, it was difficult to simplify the legal literacy and assistance in case of certain complex acts and provisions.

The resources required are adequate infrastructure and maintenance facilities to conduct a greater number of this kind of programs.

Best Practice # 3

1. Title of the Practice

“Employability Skill Training Programs”

2. Objectives of the Practice

In the liberalized economic scenario in India in particular and all over the world in general, the business and industry are exposed to many challenges like cut-throat competition, technological up gradation, quality and cost consciousness, outsourcing and new combinations of the means of production, etc. As a result of these challenges, the business enterprises have lot of expectations from the job seekers, and they are expected to be equipped with adequate computer skills to perform the jobs. Hence, there is need felt by the institution to provide an effective computer training course to the students to grab employment opportunities.

3. The Context

Page 79/99 25-01-2021 09:54:54 Self Study Report of GOVERNMENT FIRST GRADE COLLEGE HAROHALLI

The continued globalization embarked an expanded scope for growth in business within which students compete for employment upon graduation. Whereas these increased opportunities provide new ground, and opened new doors which were then inaccessible for students who wished to pursue engagement with multinationals, there are significant challenges specially for rural youth hence, the college felt that there is need to introduce the computer literacy programs for the students, we in association with the Canara Bank Self Employment Training Institute for Rural Women engaged training programs for the students to meet the expectations of the contemporary world. The training programs include the Hardware and Networking, Design and Publication, Computerized Accounting and many more.

The institution started to follow this practice in the year 2016-17, initially we started to send a few students based on the enthusiasm they have towards the development of employability skills, requirement of training and other parameters, very quickly the computer training skill were got popular and we started to send the entire batch of 30 students of 5th Semester to pursue the program in residential mode, we ensured that the students are not disturbed with their graduation program, and planned this program in semester break.
