Best Practice No. 2 (2016-17)

1. Title of the practice : “Advocate Humanity and Strengthen Nationality -- CELL”

2. Goals: 1) To encourage and stimulate the skills of organising activities among the student community; 2) To ensure awareness and encourage involvement of students in understanding and resolving social, economic and political issues; 3) To promote teamwork and creativity among the student community. Organising activities that will benefit all students and ensure academic, moral, social, economic, political responsibilities among future citizens of Goa, India and world at large has been the aim of the cell. In the initial year an interaction with the eminent scholars, academicians and activists had been planned to cultivate better values. ARRA cell is seen as a holistic approach for the development of the students.

3. Practice: 1) The ARRA Cell constituted at CES first of its kind in Goa. It was decided that the membership should be given to all regular students of the college. At the beginning of every academic year the student members shall be enrolled and the Executive Committee and the Organising Committee shall be constituted. Initially it was decided that annually an amount of Rs. 50/- shall be paid by the students as membership fees. Regarding sharing responsibility the Department of Economics and the Department of Political Science share responsibility of conducting and organising activities every alternate year. The department of Political Science shouldered the responsibility in the first year. Three activities benefiting maximum number of students were organised.

4. Evidence of Success:

AQAR of CES College of Arts and Commerce, Cuncolim,Goa, 2016-17

1) The name is derived from the first two alphabets of Arthashastra and Rajyashastra. The Mission of the cell is “Advocate Humanity and Strengthen Nationality”. 2) The Cell was inaugurated on 5th October 2016 the chief guest Dr. Renji George Amballoor congratulated both the departments for constituting an interdisciplinary Cell and enlightened the students about the interdependence between Political Science and Economics. It was noted that the interdepartmental cell is a notable effort to bring two departments together and organise creative activities. 3) The Cell organised one-day State level Seminar on 25th February 2017 for the under-graduate students in the colleges of Goa. The theme for the Seminar was ‘Ensuring Accountability in Goa 2030 – Challenges and Opportunities’. The key note speech elaborated environmental concerns and solutions as the topics was, “Promoting Accountability in use of Goa’s Rich Environment Assets through Sustainable Development” . The political scientist dealt with “Local Self Government as agents of Accountability in Goa 2030”, as Goa is the smallest state and local governments have significant role in future. The academician dealt with “Politics and Economics : An Enduring Relationship”, and explained the relationship between the disciplines, Economics and Political Science. During the post-lunch session eight students from different colleges presented their research papers. All the participants from eight colleges and CES deliberated during the question-answer session and the queries were answered by the resource persons. The best three research papers were awarded Two prizes were given to the best participant. 4) A study field was conducted by the cell for the members to understand the practical significance of life. The trip to Naval Aviation Museum at Bogmolo and MPT Harbour at Vasco on 15th March 2017 for 35 students helped students to learn the facts about the two places. The students, scholars/resource persons, faculty members look forward for such activities for participation and guidance.

5. Problems Encountered and Resource Required: 1) The primary problem is related to resources in the form of funds and time. To organise activities considerable funds are required. At the same time the qualitative benefits through guidance from resource persons and exchange among students achieved seems to be credible. However, the CBCS and Semester system and time table is major problem. 2) The limited number of members was a constraint.
