Preface

C.P.& Berar E.S. College was established under the aegis of C.P.& Berar Education Society. The institution was founded by Late Annasaheb Gokhale and Late Bapusaheb Kagbhat. Both the founding fathers were teachers and their untiring efforts and unflinching determination resulted in the establishment of a Education Institution of regional repute. This remarkable philanthropic act of making higher education available to the poor and underprivileged people is today inherited by Hon'ble Shri Balasaheb Mahajan, who is the President of C.P.& Berar Education Society for a considerable period. Under his able guidance the college is exploring all avenues in the field of academics. Since its inception, the college has been extending benefits of higher education, and providing invaluable and unparalleled services to the underprivileged people of adjoining areas.

From its humble beginning in 1960, the college has come a long way. In its upward march the college had to confront myriad problems and difficulties. Persistent effort and unwavering determination on the part of college management, active co-operation from the faculty and other stakeholders has helped us to overcome them.

Judging ourselves by the seven criteria set by NAAC for the second time is an insightful journey which helped us to put ourselves in right perspective. This Re-accreditation Report is a valuable document for us which has been prepared with utmost sincerity and honesty to the best of my knowledge and belief. This report contains information about C.P.& Berar E.S. College, Nagpur under two major parts, namely Institutional data and Evaluative Report. The first part includes: Profile of the institution and executive summary. The second part consists of Criterion-wise Evaluative Report, Evaluative Report of Departments, a Declaration by the Head of the Institution and Annexure.

The Institution understands the fact that development is a continuous and unending process. Hence it is mandatory for every institution to improve its quality parameters as per the demands of changing time. In the light of this truth RAR has been prepared. The college has done its best to take new initiatives and upgrade its performance keeping in mind the recommendations of the previous NAAC Peer Team Report. The IQAC has received timely support from all stake holders, teaching, non- teaching staff and students to prepare the report. It is the proud privilege of the college to present this Re-accreditation Report (RAR) to the NATIONAL ASSESSMENT AND ACCREDITATION COUNCIL (NAAC), BANGALORE.

We have done our best to prepare the RAR as per the NAAC guidelines and hope that our report satisfies the NAAC.

Dr. Milind Barhate Principal C.P.Berar & E.S. College, Nagpur

Principal‘s Message

C.P.& Berar E.S. College, Nagpur, was established in 1960 by C.P. & Berar Education Society to provide Higher Education facility to underprivileged students who mostly come from a lower socio-economic strata.

The college was accredited with ‗B‘ Grade by NAAC in 2004. I regret this delay on behalf of the institution.

During first accreditation, NAAC Peer Team gave some suggestions for quality enhancement. During this assessment period we have tried our level best to fulfill all the suggestions of the Peer Team. We have already submitted LOI and uploaded soft copy of AQARs and RAR for your perusal.

CRITERION I: CURRICULAR ASPECTS

1.1 Curriculum Planning and Implementation

1.1.1 State the vision, mission and objectives of the institution, and describe how these are communicated to the students, teachers, staff and other stakeholders.

Vision: We envisage a generation of youth sound of knowledge, competent in their chosen profession, and confident of their ability to steer society towards ever better values.

Mission: We at C.P. & Berar E.S. College strive for a continuous improvement of all processes and for providing an environment conducive to the pursuit of knowledge and overall personal growth.

Objectives: • Empowering the weaker section of society through higher education • To utilise the power of the youth for positive and constructive work for the nation • To develop a strong work ethic among the youth • To impart value education • To impress upon youth the concept of dignity of labour • To utilise our human resources for the betterment of the neighbourhood • To help students become competent through training in information technology • To make students self reliant and empowered through short term and practical courses Methods of Communication: • Through classroom training • ICT based Teaching • Through various co- and extra-curricular activities • Through innovative practices 24

• Through guest lectures/seminars/workshops etc. • Through our four annual lecture series • Through activities of NCC, NSS and other clubs and student bodies

1.1.2 How does the institution develop and deploy action plans for effective implementation of the curriculum? Give details of the process and substantiate through specific example(s).

It is mandatory for all teachers to draw up detailed lesson plans pertaining to the subjects and topics they are to teach in any given academic year. Before the commencement of classes, allotment of subjects and topics is done by the Heads of Departments (not applicable to one-man departments). It is worth pointing out that subjects and topics are often rotated so as to keep all department members conversant with all syllabi prescribed for and implemented by respective departments. This way, if any faculty member is absent for a prolonged time, someone else can fill in if needed.

The heads of departments take monthly meetings at the end of the month, or, failing that, at the beginning of the following month for a review of how much syllabus has been covered, and if any remedial action is needed. These meetings are well documented. But a uniform policy cannot be formulated in the face of many one-man departments such as History, Home Economics, Economics, Sanskrit, Psychology, etc. A common review is also taken by the Principal in all College Council meetings which are generally held twice a year. Again, remedial action, if needed, is chalked out. For instance, if a staff member finds out that a particular topic is being troublesome because it has been newly introduced and students are unfamiliar with it, a solution is attempted to be sought and its implementation plan is discussed.

Implementation of the curriculum is mostly done through classroom lectures and chalk-and-board method complemented by ICT based teaching. It is not feasible to equip all classrooms with audio-visual aids. Still, with a meticulous planning all ICT resources are used to optimum so as to benefit every class from them. We do have a Smart Board and three LCD projectors which are used whenever needed and whenever possible. Sometimes, it is necessary to break up a class into two or three batches if seating capacity is an issue.

At the same time, teachers also use innovative methods and techniques they have themselves developed for better effectivity over the years. They use their rich experience to fine tune their teaching in a way that best reaches students.

Students‘ feedback pertaining to each teacher is taken in the middle of the session and if there is room for improvement, the same is communicated to the concerned teacher with a view to improve performance in the remaining session. The Principal follows this up by talking to students to find out if given suggestions have been implemented. It is noteworthy that not many such incidents have come forward when it was necessary ask teachers to improve their methodology.

1.1.3 What type of support (procedural and practical) do the teachers receive (from the University and/or institution) for effectively translating the curriculum and improving teaching practices?

In terms of support from the institution, it can be said with confidence that all support within reason and within the financial grasp of the management is given to teachers and students. • Teachers are encouraged to undergo Refresher and Orientation courses conducted by the UGC. • The college library has a good collection of books and is open to teachers on all working days during working hours. • A reading room is also made available to teachers to be able to study in a quiet environment. • Books recommended by teachers are procured through the library. • Teachers are encouraged to participate in seminars/workshops/conferences, particularly those which are sponsored by the UGC. • Teachers can avail of Duty Leave for these academic pursuits, which is duly sanctioned by the Principal. • The Computer Lab of the college is open to teachers at all times and they can avail of high speed internet facility here.

1.1.4 Specify the initiatives taken up or contribution made by the institution for effective curriculum delivery and transaction on the curriculum provided by the affiliating University or other statutory agency. 26

The college takes several steps to ensure that the syllabus framed the Board of Studies of the Nagpur University is conveyed to the students as effectively as possible. Often, the focus is on giving facilities to teachers so that they are able to refine their teaching skills. • Audio-visual aids are made available to the teachers in different classrooms in the college to facilitate better teaching. • Students‘ feedback regarding curriculum is conveyed to teachers so that remedial action can be quickly taken. • The college provides logistical support to any student-related activity. Teachers who put up proposals for organising a guest lecture/seminar/workshop/tour or any other activity have the experience is that their proposals are promptly accepted and resources are mobilised to conduct the activity. • Teachers are encouraged to participate in seminars/workshops/conferences that are helpful to them in refining their teaching methodology or in gaining new insights in their subjects that would be helpful in the classroom. • During this assessment period several national level conferences have been organised by the college on different topics. • A mock exam is held about two months before the University exam every year. It is organised exactly along the lines of a University exam and papers are checked and returned to students. This is a huge help to students in finding out how much of their curriculum they have been able to grasp and how much needs to be done further. • Every time the syllabus changes, the new books prescribed in accordance are procured as quickly as possible by the library. • The review taken by the Principal in the College Council meeting is also instrumental in the timely delivery of curriculum. • In the effective delivery of curriculum, regular attendance of students plays a key role. To that end, the responsibility is given to each class teacher to follow up with students who are irregular. Letters are sent and phone calls are made to such students and they are encouraged to attend college more often. • It may be noted that several of our students have to work as they belong to the underprivileged class and have to support their family income. Hence, regular attendance is a challenge. However, the college makes all possible efforts to ensure at least the 75% attendance that has been made mandatory by the University.

1.1.5 How does the institution network and interact with beneficiaries such as industry, research bodies and University in effective operationalism of the curriculum?

The college considers itself a cog in the wheel of society rather than an island unto itself and recognises the fact that students graduating from it ultimately have to become meaningful contributors to society. That, in fact, is the true measure of its success as an educational institution. With this in view, there is an active interaction between the college and industry and research bodies. • In recent years, the thrust on employment has increased manifold. With this in mind, the college has established a Training and Placement Cell which is in touch with the need of industry and which regularly holds training for students under the Career Guidance Cell or the Department of Advanced Studies and Research or under the banner of a specific department. Often individual teachers have also contributed in the matter without taking the help of any department or cell. Optimum use of individual teachers‘ expertise is made to impart training to students. Key areas are Accounts, Marketing, HR, English, etc. • The college has taken advantage of several UGC initiatives towards better curriculum operationalism. Remedial classes for various subjects, and particularly difficult ones, are conducted for students to give them a better grasp over their studies. • We have a dedicated department that caters to the needs of students who wish to appear for competitive examinations. The Career Guidance Cell is open all days including holidays and Sundays from 8 am to 8 pm for students who wish to study for competitive exams. The Centre also organises regular guest lectures, seminars, etc. for the benefit of students who take admission there. • Regular industrial tours are organised by the college for students to give them a feel of how industries work. It is hoped that this will help them orient their studies and preparation towards their future life as employees.

1.1.6 What are the contributions of the institution and/or its staff members to the development of the curriculum by the University? (number of staff members/departments represented on the Board of Studies, student feedback, teacher feedback, stakeholder feedback provided, specific suggestions etc.)

Principal Dr. Milind Barhate is a Board of Studies Member of R.T.M.Nagpur University and has contributed meaningfully in that capacity. Same is the case with Dr. Satyawan Meshram of the Marathi department. Similarly Dr. Rajendra naikwade of Marathi Department, Dr. Jitendra mahajan of Economics Department and Dr. Vibha Kshirsagar of Sanskrit Department have contributed meaningfully to the development of syllabus of Gondwana University, Gadchiroli. There is formal mechanism to convey suggestions or feedback to the concerned bodies. Faculty members, whenever required send their suggestions to concerned committees and officials of the university. Particularly English Department has taken an initiative in this direction.

1.1.7 Does the institution develop curriculum for any of the courses offered (other than those under the purview of the affiliating university) by it? If ‗yes‘, give details on the process (‗Needs assessment‘, design, development and planning) and the courses for which the curriculum has been developed.

The C.P. & Berar College runs some short-term courses particularly aimed at making our students employable. These have been sanctioned by the UGC, but offer the flexibility of allowing the college to frame the syllabus in accordance with local needs. The courses that have been offered under the scheme are: • Travel and Tourism • Economics of Self Help Groups • Communicative English • E-Commerce Needs analysis is done prior to applying for permission for running these courses. Typically, every year, teachers talk to fresh batches and determine what kind of courses they would like to take and what their career needs are. Once the courses are determined, the concerned teacher assesses what aspects of the said subject need to be taken up. After this, a general overview of the resources available is done and feasibility is determined. Only after this is a proposal is put up with the UGC. If approval is granted, the concerned teacher designs and plans the modules to be implemented. Usually, the teacher also talks to other teachers about the exact content to be included and also takes the help of experts in the field. Often, it is not possible for the teacher to engage classes for the course. At such times, experts from the field are invited to teach. The concerned teacher supervises the successful execution and completion of the course.

Commerce Department of the college has developed add-on certificate, diploma and advanced diploma course which is optional for students. History Department has also developed an add-on certificate course. The college also offers two twinning certificate courses developed by its faculty. However response to twinning certificate courses courses has not been very encouraging.

1.1.8 How does the institute analyze /ensure that the stated objectives of curriculum are achieved in the course of implementation?

Each time the Board of Studies of any subject frames a new syllabus, it states the objectives it hopes to achieve through the new syllabus. When such a syllabus is received by the college, the Principal holds a meeting with the concerned department and a discussion on how best to achieve the objectives is held. If clarity is required, teachers from other colleges or the board of studies members themselves are also contacted. Through regular tests in class, an assessment is made as to whether the objectives are being met. The final University result is considered the best measure of the achievement (or lack thereof) of the stated objectives.

1.2 Academic Flexibility

1.2.1 Specifying the goals and objectives give details of the certificate/diploma/skill development courses, etc. offered by the institution.

Since the C.P. & Berar College is an affiliated college, and since the syllabus is determined by the affiliating university, there is not much scope for academic flexibility within the given framework. However, through several short-term certificate courses, the college tries to bridge the gap between what the conventional syllabus offers and what students need. The goals and objectives of the courses (Travel and Tourism, Self Help Groups, Communicative English, E- Commerce and Online Trading) are: • To address the current needs of students • To bring students up to date with latest developments • To open new avenues of employment for students • To increase the employability of students • To enhance confidence of students through language proficiency • To make students self-sufficient through entrepreneurship by providing them the know-how

• To make students tech savvy

1.2.2 Does the institution offer programmes that facilitate twinning/dual degree? If ‗yes‘, give details.

Yes, the institute offers a twinning programme formulated by its own faculty.Department of Commerce, Economics, Psychology and Home Economics have collaborated for these in consultation with the peers in respective fields. The response is limited but very encouraging.

1.2.3 Give details of the various institutional provisions with reference to academic flexibility and how it has been helpful to students in terms of skills development, academic mobility, progression to higher studies and improved potential for employability. Issues may cover the following and beyond:

• Range of Core/Elective options offered by the University and those opted by the college: The University offers a number of courses. Of these, English is compulsory. Students must choose from between Supplementary English, Hindi, Marathi, Sanskrit, Telugu, Bengali, Gujrati, Pali and Prakrit as a second language. However, C.P. & Berar College offers a choice between, Marathi and Sanskrit. In electives, the RTMN University offers to students of the Arts Faculty a choice of three subjects from among subjects like - English Literature, Marathi Literature, Urdu Literature, Sanskrit Literature, Hindi Literature, Pali, Prakrit, History, Economics, Political Science, Public Administration, Psychology, Home Science, Home Economics, Sociology. Out of these, the college offers nine subjects - English Literature, Marathi Literature, Sanskrit Literature, Sociology, Political Science, History, Economics, Home Economics and Psychology. • For Commerce, there is no choice and all subjects are compulsory. • Choice Based Credit System and range of subject options: Our affiliating University does not offer the Choice Based Credit System. • Courses offered in modular form: There are no courses offered in the modular form by the affiliating University. • Credit transfer and accumulation facility: This facility is also not available in the affiliating University. • Lateral and vertical mobility within and across programmes and courses: Lateral mobility is provided to students who wish to change their subjects after their first year of graduation. For 31

instance, if a student finds History difficult in the first year, it is possible for him or her to change it to a subject of his or her liking, say, Sociology. As for vertical mobility, students get the ATKT (Allowed To Keep Term) facility, under which they are allowed admission to the higher class despite having to clear 50% of their subjects. They then have the option of clearing the said exam in the mid-term examinations held by the University. • Enrichment Courses: The short-term courses mentioned above all form part of the enrichment programme of the college. Besides these, small workshops and regular guest lectures are also held with student enrichment in mind. Similarly, workshops on how to use the internet are regularly held for students by the college as our students come from extremely underprivileged classes and are not computer literate as they cannot afford the facility at home.

1.2.4 Does the institution offer self-financed programmes? If ‗yes‘, list them and indicate how they differ from other programmes, with reference to admission, curriculum, fee structure, teacher qualification, salary, etc.

Yes, the C.P. & Berar College offers self-financed programmes like • BBA • BCCA • MBA • MA (Marathi) • MA (English Literature) • MA (Political Science) • B.Com. (English Medium) • DBM • MIRPM • M.Com (Professional) • M.Phil. (Marathi) • M.Phil. (Commerce) • M.Phil. (Economics) With reference to admission, the procedure is no different from that of our regular admissions, i.e., during admission time, the appointed committee accepts duly filled forms and grants admission if the candidate is found eligible. Admissions are mostly spot admissions; however, if

32 a certain course has elicited a good response, it sometimes becomes necessary to prepare a merit list and admit students accordingly. The qualifications of the teachers recruited to teach these courses is also in accordance with University norms. Since teachers for these courses are recruited on hourly basis, they are given remuneration in accordance with the recommendation of the University.

1.2.5 Does the college provide additional skill oriented programmes, relevant to regional and global employment markets? If ‗yes‘, provide details of such programme and the beneficiaries.

The short-term courses mentioned above are all skill oriented programmes and aimed at equipping students with knowledge that would make them compatible in the job market. Some courses like the one on Self Help groups have a local or regional relevance, while those like Travel and Tourism have a wider reach. Online Trading, on the other hand, is globally relevant. In fact, the choice of these subjects by the college has been deliberately eclectic so as to cater to as wide an audience as possible and to be able to provide opportunities in varied fields at varied levels. History department offers add on elementary course which has a local relevance since tourism in Vidarbha region is catching up. In addition to this, the Home Economics Department holds workshops to impart skills in small- scale manufacturing. Students are taught to make detergent powder, phenyl, sauces and pickles. A separate workshop on fabric embellishment is also undertaken. The workshops have been instrumental in helping many girls become financially productive.

1.2.6 Does the university provide for the flexibility of combining the conventional face-to- face and Distance Mode of Education for students to choose the courses/combination of their choice? If ‗yes‘, how does the institution take advantage of such provision for the benefit of students?

No, the University does not permit such flexibility. According to the rules of the Nagpur University, only one course may be undertaken during any academic session. No other course from no other University is permitted to be undertaken simultaneously as it believes that an academic year is required for a student to do justice to the syllabus recommended by it. 33

1.3 Curriculum Enrichment

1.3.1 Describe the efforts made by the institution to supplement the University‘s Curriculum to ensure that the academic programmes and Institution‘s goals and objectives are integrated?

In keeping with the changing needs of the times, the curriculum of the University has been reoriented to suit the needs of industry. Since traditional courses were becoming increasingly redundant, the curriculum has been seeing a lot of changes in recent years. The C.P. & Berar College is also aware of the changing scenario and has recently reoriented its own goals and objectives to include employability of students. Thus, the goals and objectives of the college are already in tandem with the University‘s curriculum. In order to further strengthen this integration, the following steps are taken: • Organising guest lectures/workshops/seminars for students that focus on the application of their academic courses in real life. • Organising industrial tours for students to give them an insight into what working life might be like. • Holding self-employment workshops where students are taught skills in small-scale manufacturing like phenyl, detergent powder, fabric embellishment, etc. • Holding programmes through departmental initiatives like the English Literary Association that are supplementary to the curriculum. For instance, movies based on prescribed dramas are screened for the benefit of literature students. • Making use of Information Technology to equip students with computer skills.

1.3.2 What are the efforts made by the institution to enrich and organise the curriculum to enhance the experiences of the students so as to cope with the needs of the dynamic employment market?

The curriculum adopted by the University takes a macro view of students taking admission to its various courses as it caters to a heterogenous group. However, at the college level, it is more advisable to take a micro view as students of any college tend to belong to roughly the same strata of society. In the C.P. & Berar College, students come from families that are severely economically challenged. Also, about 95% of our students also belong to the SC/ST/NT and OBC 34 categories. Thus, their requirements from the college are different from those of students other colleges where the student profile is different. To enhance the experiences of students, the college takes the following steps: • Outstation camps of NCC and NSS help our efforts here in a big way. Though, strictly speaking, these are extra-curricular activities, they can be used to reinforce subjects like Environmental Studies. Plus, the outside exposure helps in improving their confidence levels. This helps them when they enter the job market. • Our teachers often take the help of audio-visual aids and information technology for clarifying concepts that are difficult to explain, thus making students more secure in their grasp of their subjects. • Remedial classes in many subjects are held for weaker students. • Students of our college tend to be particularly weak in English. So, apart from the English component in their syllabus and remedial courses that reinforce the syllabus, a course on Communicative English was also undertaken. • The Career Guidance Cell and the Department of Advanced Studies and Research gives students an extra edge when it comes to seeking employment. • As mentioned before, students can avail computer facilities in our computer lab and they receive training in the use of internet here.

1.3.3 Enumerate the efforts made by the institution to integrate the cross cutting issues such as Gender, Climate Change, Environmental Education, Human Rights, ICT, etc. into the curriculum.

The C.P. & Berar College is acutely aware of the need for students to be socially aware and has implemented several programmes with this in mind. • Gender: Every year, the college holds lectures for its students where doctors and social activists talk on gender sensitisation along with the general health issues of girls and marriage counselling. Additionally, language subjects usually tend to have an essay or a story on the issue in their syllabus. This is often used as an opportunity to spark a debate in the classroom. • Climate Change and Environmental Education: The University has introduced Environmental Studies as a compulsory subject for both Arts and Commerce streams. Although it does not affect their percentage, students‘ results are withheld until they clear the subject. The college takes this very seriously and has appointed a teacher to teach the subject. Regular lectures are integrated into the college time table. Environmental Audit is done by external agency. 35

• Human Rights: Human Rights is not a separately taught subject. However, awareness is created by holding lectures from time to time by eminent people from the Police Department, or social workers, or lawyers, as the opportunity presents itself. Two faculty members of college are Human Rights Activists. • ICT: As already mentioned, workshops on the use of Information Technology are held for students regularly. ICT is used for a number of periods by all faculty members. • Population Education: The college has a Population Education Club. Students are encouraged to join it and those who do submit a project book at the end of the academic session, detailing their efforts at understanding the issue and spreading awareness about it. A teacher is appointed as a mentor to this club and he or she guides the students in their endeavours.

1.3.4. What are the various value-added courses/enrichment programmes offered to ensure holistic development of students?

Value based education is one stated objectives of the C.P. & Berar College. Many of our programmes justify this focus. • Moral and Ethical Values: The college holds a big three-day programme called ‗Dnyaneshwari Pathan‘ in which a collective reading of certain chapters of the Dnyaneshwari is held and is followed by a ‗Granth Dindi‘. This is a procession in which the Holy Text is taken in a celebratory procession around the area. Workshops on Yoga and Pranayam are also held for students every year. • Employable and Life Skills: The workshops on small-scale manufacturing, internet use, career oriented short term courses and remedial courses all go towards creating a batch of employable youth and imparting them life skills. Commerce Department is particularly active in this field. • Better Career Options: The Department of Higher Studies and Research, The NET/SET Study Circle and the Career Guidance Cell all work towards giving students better career opportunities. In fact, many students studying in these centres have cleared competitive exams and NET or SET exams. • Community Orientation: The C.P. & Berar College holds four lecture series in memory of its founders and other important people who have contributed meaningfully to the C.P. & Berar Education Society. These lectures are open to all and are well attended. Of these, the Raju Deo Memorial Lecture and the Shankarrao Padhye Lecture Series is on spiritual topics while the

Gokhale-Kagbhat Lecture Series in memory of the founders of the Education Society and the Bapusaheb Khare Lecture Series usually addresses social issues.

1.3.5 Citing a few examples, enumerate on the extent of the use of the feedback from stakeholders in enriching the curriculum.

Feedback received from students and other stakeholders has to be incorporated informally. Since the curriculum cannot be changed or modified, only informal inputs are possible. To that end, the IQAC in association with feedback committe takes feedback from students and find out what they would like to learn about. This feedback is used to take concrete steps. Following steps were taken based on the inputs of feedback: • Besides continuous enhancement in ICT workshops on the use of Internet was a result of students‘ feedback. • Replacement of CHB teacher of Compulsory Subject - Environment. • Industrial tours are organised in accordance with the suggestions of students. • The NET/SET Study Circle was started as a result of a demand from students in higher classes. • For the Rakhi Arpan program, earlier the rakhis were made by teachers. On the demand of students, they were involved and this best practice provided us with a reason to hold Rakhi Making workshops every year. • Installation of Sanitory Napkin Vending Machine

1.4 Feedback System

1.4.1 What are the contributions of the institution in the design and development of the curriculum prepared by the University?

Faculty who are Board of Studies members give feedback and suggestions to the University by taking feedback of students on syllabus. The institute is unable to make any contribution towards the design and development of the curriculum prepared by the University. It is only possible to do so in an individual capacity and then only if someone is elected on the Board of Studies.

1.4.2 Is there a formal mechanism to obtain feedback from students and stakeholders on Curriculum? If ‗yes‘, how is it communicated to the University and made use internally for curriculum enrichment and introducing changes/new programmes?

Yes, There is mechanism for obtaining feedback on curriculum. In the middle a of session or towards the end of the session a feedback is taken which if needed is communicated to the concerned officials. In addition, feedback is sought from students on whether they are satisfied with the way the curriculum is being covered and their comments are passed on to the concerned teacher.

1.4.3 How many new programmes/courses were introduced by the institution during the last four years? What was the rationale for introducing new courses/programmes?

U.G.C. sponsored Certificate Courses: Communicative English, Functional English, Travel and Tourism, Economics of Self Help Groups Add on Courses: Certificate, Diploma and Advanced Diploma by Commerce Department, Certificate Course by History Department Twinning Courses: By Commerce Department and by Economics Department The rational behind the UGC sponsored courses and the addon course of History department was to make students more employable while the rationale behind other add-on courses and twinning courses by college was better and cross-disciplinary understanding of subject

CRITERION II TEACHING-LEARNING AND EVALUATION

2.1 Student Enrolment Profile

2.1.1 How does the college ensure publicity and transparency in the admission process?

Immediately after results of 12th Std. are declared, the college advertises the commencement of its admission process. Advertisements are placed in local newspapers with a view to reach as

38 many students as possible. There are other steps that are taken to ensure publicity of the courses run by the college: • Distributing leaflets at exam centres • Advertising on the college website • Contacting Principals of Junior Colleges and taking their help in reaching out to their students • Using personal contacts to get more admissions As for transparency, the admission process is completely fair and transparent. One factor that needs to be humbly admitted here is that the college gets less admissions than its intake capacity. So, there is a little screening when taking admissions. Almost all eligible students who come to the college seeking admission get a seat. All the same, the entire process is very transparent and open to scrutiny if need be. • Marks of students are entered in the Student Admission register and this is not treated as a confidential document. • In most cases, since spot admission is secured by the students, there is no need for him or her to refer to a merit list. • For those few who remain doubtful about their admission, a merit list is displayed of all admitted students and this, too, is open to scrutiny if required. There is never any need for keeping an eye on the admissions in the SC/ST and other reservation quotas as over 95% of our students belong to these categories and their admissions are over and above the quota prescribed by the government.

2.1.2 Explain in detail the criteria adopted and process of admission (Ex. (i) merit (ii) common admission test conducted by state agencies and national agencies (iii) combination of merit and entrance test or merit, entrance test and interview (iv) any other) to various programmes of the institution.

The qualifying exam for UG courses of both streams available at C.P. & Berar College (Arts and Commerce) is 12th Board Exams. Admissions are granted on the basis of the clearance of this examination. While admission to Arts is available to students regardless of their stream at 12th, admissions to Commerce are not allowed to students who have done 12th Arts. This is in accordance with the rules of the affiliating University. Admission is granted to almost every qualifying candidate. Exceptions are made in rare cases where the mark sheet may be in doubt or if a student has made too many attempts to clear qualifying exams. 39

• Merit: When needed a merit list is displayed for students who have been able to secure an admission. • Common Admission Test conducted by state agencies and national agencies: This is not applicable to our college as admissions to Arts and Commerce colleges do not happen through a centralised process. No state or national agency is involved in this process. • Combination of Merit and Entrance Test or Merit, Entrance Test and Interview: None of these are done at the college level as they are not required. As already mentioned, the college has to struggle for admissions and the number of students approaching us are less than our intake capacity. So, none of these measures are really required. • Any Other: No other screening measures are taken for the same reasons as stated in the above point. It is to be noted that due to steep decline in demand for traditional courses, overall demand for Arts and Commerce faculty has declined, but still our reputation does some damage control for us. Special attention is given to some students who have excelled in sport or any other field. At such times, if the student is unable to pay his or her fees, money from the college fund is provided and admission is given to the student. The aim is not only to provide education to all, but also that the college should incentivise extraordinary students. Fee concession is given to needy and poor students.

2.1.3 Give the minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry level for each of the programs offered by the college and provide a comparison with other colleges of the affiliating university within the city/district.

While students scoring as low as 35%- 40% are given admission in both Arts and Commerce faculty, a few bright student from both faculties scoring upto 65%-70% also seek admission to college. The admission scenario of almost all colleges in the vicinity is more or less the same. As compared to the colleges in the vicinity (circumference of about two kms ) we are in an advantageous position. Earlier the University Handbook used to publish this data but of late it has discontinued this practice.

2.1.4 Is there a mechanism in the institution to review the admission process and student profiles annually? If ‗yes‘, what is the outcome of such an effort and how has it contributed to the improvement of the process? 40

While the admission procedure is reviewed each year before the commencement of admissions, student profiles are reviewed immediately after the admission process is complete. The Principal holds a meeting of the Admission Committee and discusses the academic profile of these students. In the last 6-7 years, the academic profile has been almost uniform with only the lowest scorers opting for Arts and Commerce courses. Thus, the profiling paves the way for another meeting with the whole staff where means to improve the result are discussed. For conducting the admission procedure, an Admission Committee is constituted by the Principal in the last College Council meeting of the session. This committee reviews the admission procedure followed in the last few years and measures that have fetched more admissions as well as measures that have not been successful or even counterproductive in the past are discussed. Based on this, the new policy is framed. One of the crucial things that is decided is how many admissions are ideally needed for each subject to prevent our staff from becoming surplus in the institution. We value our staff members highly and it would be a great loss to lose any of them. Thus, strategies are formulated to fill up the minimum required seats in each subject. Of course, the final decision is that of the students‘, but the college makes all out efforts to protect its staff.

2.1.5 Reflecting on the strategies adopted to increase/improve access for the following categories of students, enumerate on how the admission policy of the institution and its student profiles demonstrate/reflect the national commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Although the academic and social profile of students taking admission to C.P. & Berar College is almost uniform with most belonging to the reserved categories and the lowest economic rungs of society, special steps are taken to ensure that students with special needs also find the sailing smooth. a. SC/ST/OBC All possible efforts are made to have a fair proportion of SC/ST/OBC students in the institution. Wherever needed, students from these categories get financial assistance from the College Student Aid Fund if they are economically very distressed. b. Women Of all the students admitted, about 65-70% are girls. No special government reservations apply, and even if standard norms are considered, the admissions to girls are far more than are required by stipulation. 41 c. Differently-abled We do have only a few students with different abilities almost every year. While some have been affected by Polio as children, others are born with difficulties or have suffered accidents. Such students are proffered all possible help from the college. From waiving their tuition fee to scheduling their classes on the ground floor to scheduling special coaching in the staff room so they don‘t have to exert too much, the college ensures the well-being of these students. They are also made aware of the opportunities they might get in the government because of being differently abled. The Student Counsellor of Psychology Department helps in all these matters. d. Economically weaker sections The bulk of our students come from economically challenged sections of society. Tuition fee waivers and exam fee waivers we offer them help to keep them in college. As has already been mentioned in a different context, all teachers of the C.P. & Berar College collect a substantial amount of money to build a fund of nearly Rs. 50-60 thousand. It is from this fund that economically weak students get their aid. Besides, it is common practice for teachers to give books to these students to aid in their studies. This does not even happen formally. The practice has long been in existence and each teacher has done this at some point of time or other. e. Minority Community We have had admissions from the Muslim community. Apart from this, though, not many other minority communities have been represented. All the same, we can say with confidence that whenever there have been an approach for admission from minority communities, nobody has ever been turned back because of their identity. f. Sports Reservation The C.P. & Berar College has a very robust sports department with a long tradition of winning many trophies at all levels. The profile of the Sports Department is given in all detail at the relevant place, but suffice it to say for now that sports constitutes an important factor in our institution. Sports quota is availed by students who may otherwise not get admission, but have shown exemplary acumen in some sport. For instance, a student who, say, has failed his 12th Std. examination five times but is an excellent Kabaddi player who has performed consistently at the regional, state and national levels, is welcome to take admission to C.P. & Berar College though such students are generally turned away. Often, the Commerce Department does get more applications than its quota of admissions. This is when the Sports quota is utilised to give admission to sportspersons.

2.1.6 Provide the following details for various programmes offered by the institution during the last four years and comment on the trends, i.e. reasons for increase/decrease and actions initiated for improvement.

Due to various reasons outside their control, there has been a decline, a sharp decline in admissions to Arts and Commerce colleges in general. This general trend has affected the C.P. & Berar College too. In fact, in the year 2010-11, the we had reached a state of crisis with only 173 fresh admissions to our Arts stream. Admissions to Commerce were not very encouraging either. This served as a wake-up call and immediate steps were taken to rectify the situation. Among measures taken were the following: • Placing an admission notice in multiple newspapers • Opening a call centre to call potential candidates as also students already having cleared one or two years of their graduation to encourage them to take admission to college • Talking to our own Junior College students to try and convince them to continue their education here 43

• Visiting Principals of Junior Colleges to take their help in facilitating reaching out to potential candidates • Going to Junior colleges at the time of exams to distribute pamphlets and brochures of the college • Holding extra classes for Spoken English for 12th Std. students in the summer to acquaint them with the college and encourage a level of comfort with the institution and its teachers • Holding Personality Development Camps for students with the same view as above • Making individual efforts to secure at least 5 admissions by each staff member These measures gave excellent results and there was a rise in admissions the next year. In the year 2014-15, the number of students admitted to the Arts stream was upwards of 300.

2.2. Catering to Diverse Needs of students

2.2.1. How does the institution cater to the needs of differently abled students and ensure adherence to government policies in this regard ?

Proper attention is given to the differently abled students by following all the guideline of government and university regarding their needs. However very few such students have taken admissions since last four years. During this assessment period one partially blind student of the college has successfully graduated and is serving the state Government.

2.2.2 Does the institution assess the students‘ needs in terms of knowledge and skills before the commencement of the programme? If ‗yes‘, give details on the process.

At the time of admissions, students are often confused as to what subjects they should offer. Whenever any member of the Admission Committee comes across such a student, he or she is referred to the Student Counsellor. The Counsellor takes the marks of 12th Std. into consideration and also talks to the student at length about what his or her likes and dislikes are. In addition, the Counsellor also takes a call on what the student is best-suited for aptitude wise and then suggests the best choice of subjects. Immediately after admissions, the Principal addresses the students in an Orientation lecture. Students are made to understand the expectations we have from them and are in return told what they can expect from the college. Often, a motivational speaker from outside is also invited for the programme. 44

Even after admission, depending on when the admission was done, students get about a month or so to finally make up their mind. If, in the meantime, any student faces difficulties with a certain subject, a change of subject can be effected. Even here, the role of the Class Teacher, the Teacher Guardian and the Student Counsellor is quite important. Besides, the Psychology Department of the college is a big help in preparing student profiles. The profiles give us an idea as to how best to deal with our students, how best to serve their interests and what would be the best course of action for them in future as far as career is concerned.

2.2.3 What are the strategies drawn and deployed by the institution to bridge the knowledge gap of the enrolled students to enable them to cope with the programme of their choice? (Bridge/Remedial/Add-on/Enrichment courses, etc.)

At the time of admission, we get students with different abilities. In order to level the field for them, the following measures are taken: • In most cases, the real difficulty is with English. In order to address this problem, remedial coaching is offered in the subject. This is very popular with students and has been instrumental in helping improve the result of English over the years. Remedial courses are also held in some Commerce subjects that students find difficult. • Efforts to bridge knowledge and information gaps are particularly made by Commerce Department by conducting an add-on course. • Students who need extra help in coping with their subjects are clubbed together and the concerned teacher holds classes. • Sometimes students opt for a subject that they have not studied at Junior college. At such times, these Bridge classes are very helpful to students. • Add-on courses like Tally have been very helpful to students of the Commerce stream. • The Computer Lab is utilised to give free training in the use of Internet. Some students are already proficient in this, while others struggle to cope. These students get the benefit of computer training and are able to put it to use even outside. • Advanced learners, though few, are encouraged to do more and are often coached to be able to achieve all that they can.

2.2.4 How does the college sensitise its staff and students on issues such as gender, inclusion, environment, etc?

In this day and age of men and women working together, and more communities being thrown together due to various reasons, it is important to keep the fabric of society well tended to. It is equally important to spread awareness among young, impressionable minds about the conservation of the environment. To this end, several steps are taken: • Guest lectures by gynaecologists are held for girls to make them aware of the changes in their body • Guest lectures by lawyers who specialise in gender issues are held for girls and boys alike to spread awareness about women‘s rights • Marriage counselling is held for girls and boys alike to make them aware of the common areas of friction between husbands and wives. How to resolve these problems in a mature, progressive manner is also talked about • The C.P. & Berar College does not get many admissions from minority communities. However, whenever such students do take admission, they are encouraged to talk about their customs and traditions in class and share their view of the world. This has the positive effect of dispelling many myths • The affiliating university has made it compulsory to include a paper on Environmental Studies. This is very seriously implemented in our college • The subject is considered important enough to call in a guest teacher since none of the teachers at the college can be called experts in the field • The teacher of this subject ensures that each student has completed a project based on some aspect of any environmental issue. This gives the students an opportunity to explore the issue and find out more about it. Students also often share their work with classmates, thus ensuring the spreading of ideas • The NSS is also instrumental in spreading concern about the environment. Not only are our students given inputs on the problem, but they are also entrusted with the work of taking the word into villages and peripheral areas of Nagpur

2.2.5 How does the institution identify and respond to special educational/learning needs of advanced learners?

We believe that advanced learners will quickly get impatient with the pace of teaching in the class as this teaching is aimed at the average. Once boredom sets in, learning becomes very slow or erratic. Thus, it is essential to keep advanced learners occupied and challenged to sustain their interest. 46

Advanced learners are identified by their score at 12th, and then a continuation of their academic performance in unit/surprise tests etc. Class Teachers and Teacher Guardians also help identify them. Once they are identified, they are saddled with extra responsibilities like: • Involving them in various co- and extra-curricular activities • Involving some of them in the Student Council • Involving them in volunteer work to ensure students‘ participation in various activities • Involving them in the publishing of Sahitya Sadhana, our annual college magazine and giving them opportunities to express themselves through it • Giving them extra coaching in the vacations to help them upgrade their score • Giving them free books as an incentive to study more • Providing notes from which to study • Giving them extra access to the internet • Giving them projects that are more challenging than those of the rest of the class • Putting them in charge of groups so they can guide their lesser abled classmates and hone their leadership skills at the same time

2.2.6 How does the institute collect, analyse and use the data and information on the academic performance (through the programme duration) of the students at risk of drop out (students from the disadvantaged sections of society, physically challenged, slow learners, economically weaker sections etc.)?

Through the programme duration, the institution maintains the day-to-days attendance of the students and monitors their punctuality in the class and in each and every period they have to attend. Thus, their monthly attendance is collected and if it is found that the attendance of any student goes below 75% the guardians of such students are informed with suggestion to send their wards in the college regularly. And if the guardian does not pay heed to the suggestion and fails to keep his son/daughter punctual, the college takes necessary action against the student. The teachers give home assignments to the students as a task to be completed. They evaluate the assigned work and put remarks on it. Negligence toward the work are brought in the knowledge of the head of the institution and the principal sends notice to the guardians of the students concerned, with a request to spare some time at home for study. To check the slow learners some special academic programmes are organised by the institution. Zero periods and Extra classes are also taken by the teachers where the slow learners, economically backward and such other students are called upon to join and take advantage. Students are suggested to make

47 maximum use of library. Special guidance is given to the students at the end of the session regarding how to write answers in exam and maintain time. In short, the institution always keeps an eye on the students in order to maintain their regularity and punctuality so that the drop out rate may not increase. The mechanism through which data and information on the academic performance of students is collected is two-fold. On the one hand, periodic evaluation through unit tests, surprise tests, etc. keep the college abreast of the progress or lack thereof of the student. On the other hand, the Teacher Guardians and Class Teachers of each class also keep an eye on the performance of students allotted to them. Apart from academics, these teachers also make themselves aware of these students‘ financial, social and emotional status so as to take remedial action if needed. Through this two-pronged approach, it is possible to identify students who may be at risk of drop- out. Once such students are identified, they are given special attention through our various schemes, formal and informal. We aim to cut down the drop-out ratio as much as possible. Dropouts are prevented through: • Counselling students who may still be in college but are contemplating dropping out • Going through attendance registers to identify students who are long absent and contacting them on phone or through letters • Talking not just to students but also their parents to convince them to stay in college • Providing incentives in the form of financial assistance or free books, etc. • Arranging extra classes for students who want to drop out because they are finding the course too difficult • Providing free medical aid to girl students who find it difficult to carry on because of their frail health Despite all these measures, the drop-out rate remains high though it has come down in recent years. The situation is far from ideal and C.P. & Berar College takes great efforts to see to it that once a student is admitted to the college, he or she stays the duration of the course and even stays on for higher education.

2.3 Teaching-Learning Process

2.3.1 How does the college plan and organise the teaching, learning and evaluation schedules? (Academic Calendar, teaching plan, evaluation blue print, etc.)

Every year, at the beginning of the session, we get a list of holidays from the university. This includes even vacation periods. Based on this, we calculate the days remaining that can be utilised for various teaching, learning and evaluation activities. Concurrent with the admission process, a meeting of the IQAC is held and a blueprint for the rest of the year is finalised. This meeting is more or less a continuation of the meeting held at the end of the earlier session. The blueprint is almost ready in the earlier meeting and only new factors are added or reviewed in this meeting. The finalised blueprint is then submitted for perusal by the Principal. Following this, a planning meeting of the whole staff is held by the Principal. This is a very crucial meeting wherein the entire planning for the year ahead is done and the blueprint is adopted with whatever changes are deemed fit by consensus. The Academic Calendar is part of the blueprint made out by the IQAC. Each department is responsible for creating its own class-wise and section-wise teaching plan. This plan has to fit into the overall Academic Calendar already adopted. The plan is quite detailed with components to be covered in each week clearly mentioned. Unit tests, of course, are held as a common schedule, but surprise tests have to be planned by individual teachers. These are preferably staggered so as not to allow students to find out about them. The individual Teacher‘s Diary is very instrumental in this planning and execution. Evaluation too is done in a limited timeframe, ideally, within a week from the exam. Scores are immediately made available to students to let them know their performance. Of course, everything doesn‘t always go to plan. At such times, it is usually up to the individual teachers to make necessary changes without letting the overall goal suffer. If needed, meetings at departmental levels or college level are also held to try and get processes back on track.

2.3.2 How does IQAC contribute to improve the teaching-learning?

The IQAC is treated as an umbrella body for most processes of the institution as it prepares policy and plans, and chalks out ways of implementation. In this way, the IQAC is related to all aspects of teaching, whether it be the number of classes engaged or the result or the student feedback. • Since the inception of the IQAC, planning of academic activities has been better and more streamlined. This has resulted in better performance of individuals as well as of the college as a whole.

• Since the IQAC is an umbrella committee it plans for all components, thus reducing the possibility of overlapping programmes or events. This has led to better coordination among all units of the college. • With the initiative of the IQAC, an academic diary was prepared which is a record of all activities of all teachers. It not only includes details of day-to-day teaching, but also a record of papers written/presented/published, online courses completed, training undergone, etc. Not only has this made planning easy for teachers, but it has also served as a reminder for teachers to do more. • The IQAC has also helped in formulating ways of increasing the percentage of passed students every year. • The IQAC oversees the Teacher-Guardian scheme under which a close monitoring of all students is done. This is helpful in increasing classroom attendance, thereby contributing to a better result. • While planning ahead, the IQAC has sometimes come across hurdles that only the management can solve as funding for infrastructure is involved. These problems also get addressed in a better fashion as proposals get put up in a studied fashion. This has the effect of improving the overall educational experience of students. • Meetings with all stakeholders are organized whenever possible and sincere efforts are made to implement suggestions.

2.3.3 How is learning made more student-centric? Give details on the support structures and systems available for teachers to develop skills like interactive learning, collaborative learning and independent learning among the students?

At C.P. & Berar College, we realise that teaching has to be oriented to the maximum participation of students. The learning style where students were given solutions to learn by rote is no longer what they need. It is more important for them to find their own answers. While students at C.P. & Berar come ill-equipped to think critically and arrive at their own answers, every measure that might help them in that direction is taken. We can obviously not do away completely with traditional methods of classroom teaching, but besides this, the following steps are taken to make teaching more student-centric: • Student seminars are held to allow students to work on a topic and think critically on it. They also get an opportunity to voice their opinion on the topic they have taken up. It promotes independent learning. 50

• Projects are another way of getting students thinking and promoting independent learning as students only get guidance from a teacher. The rest of the work has to be done by students themselves. • Sometimes, projects and assignments are allotted to groups with subtopics divided amongst the group members. This promotes collaborative learning. • Our Computer Lab is particularly instrumental in making students independent learners. The training in the usage of internet has been very useful to students. • Students are encouraged to speak up in class as often as possible. Many of our classes are interactive with the teacher throwing questions open to the class and the class brainstorming on it. • Informal quizzes are also held in class when the teacher divides up a class in teams and asks questions on topics recently covered. This participative method helps more interaction between teacher and students. • Various audio-visual aids in the college which are frequently used by teachers are also promoters of interactive learning.

2.3.4 How does the institution nurture critical thinking, creativity and scientific temper among the students to transform them into life-long learners and innovators?

Critical thinking, creativity and scientific temper are among the best survival tools for youth today. In this globalised world, these qualities are sometimes valued far higher over a formal degree. However, if a degree can be combined with these attributes, students can really go far. With this in mind, the college has tried to infuse these qualities in our students with the help of the following measures: • Twice a year, after a certain topic is covered in class, questions based on the topic, but not covered explicitly in the textbook, are given to students as assignments. This requires students to look beyond their usual learning and think on their own. • Activities in NCC and NSS wherein students are given situations that require disaster management. Students are given an imaginary disaster scenario and asked how they would go about saving the day. This time-bound activity is done in groups and sharpens students‘ critical thinking ability. • Debates are held every now and then under our Debate Club started in the Golden Jubilee Year. A running trophy was also instituted for winning debaters. Similarly, students are also

encouraged to participate in debates outside the college. Critical thinking gets a boost in this activity too. • Creativity gets encouraged in our Annual Social Gathering. Various competitions like singing, dancing, rangoli, mehandi, drawing, etc. are held wherein students can showcase their talents and creative acumen. • Besides this, girl students also get an opportunity to express their creativity in the Home Economics department where they embroider, knit and sew. Commercial activities like fabric embellishment also provide this opportunity. So does our Rakhi making activity where students make beautiful rakhis and take pride in the best-made ones. • The annual college magazine, Sahitya Sadhana, gives students ample opportunity for creative expression. • The C.P. & Berar College is a Data Collection Centre for various surveys held in collaboration with various organizations.. The help of students is taken for a modest remuneration for data collection and they are trained in how to do this scientifically. • Surveys are also undertaken by teachers themselves for various research activities. They also often take the help of students in filling out questionnaires. • Students‘ projects and seminars are also instrumental in helping them develop a temper for scientific enquiry.

2.3.5 What are the technologies and facilities available and used by the faculty for effective teaching? Eg: Virtual laboratories, e-learning resources from the National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) and National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NME-ICT), open educational resources, mobile education, etc.

Technologies and facilities available and used by the faculty for effective teaching: • Smart board • LCD Projectors • Computers • TV • Computerised Library • Online videos on topics prescribed in syllabus • Online videos on entrepreneurship • Screening of movies through the Movie Club 52

• E-learning resources for Enhanced Language Skills • Financial Literacy Workshops in conjunction with SEBI

2.3.6 How are the students and faculty exposed to advanced level of knowledge and skills (blended learning, expert lectures, seminars, workshops, etc.)?

There are many ways in which our students and faculty are exposed to advanced level of knowledge and skills: • Expert lectures on topics that need a deeper understanding • Seminars for students • Workshops for students • Activities of Clubs - Debate Club, Creative Club, Movie Club • Power Point presentations by teachers for students • Quiz competitions for students • Internet facility • Library facility • Audio-Visual aids of teaching • Lecture series on spiritual and social topics • Industrial visits • Assignments and projects • Bright students are given free books as encouragement • Students who have won any award are also given books as incentives • The Department of Advanced Studies and Research promotes higher learning • The Ph.D. Guidance Cell helps research scholars conduct research more professionally • The Career Guidance Cell guides students on avenues open to them and helps them find academic resources for the same and make use of them • Teachers are encouraged to conduct research and publish their findings • Teachers are sanctioned leave to attend/present at conferences • Training in research methodology for teachers • Teachers are encouraged to undergo Refresher/Orientation courses • Teachers are encouraged to get their doctorate as soon as possible • Teachers are also encouraged to undergo online courses • Faculty Improvement Workshops • Faculty Exchange Programmes with colleges with whom we have signed such MoUs. 53

2.3.7 Detail (process and the number of students benefitted) on the academic, personal and psycho-social support and guidance services (professional counseling/mentoring/academic advise) provided to students.

One of our most important schemes is the Teacher-Guardian scheme wherein a certain number of students allotted to each teacher are mentored by that teacher. This teacher looks after the overall wellbeing of each of his or her students. There have been many occasions in the past when students have faced financial hurdles or emotional problems. When the student talks to his or her teacher guardian, appropriate steps are taken to help the student out of the problem. Among measures taken through this scheme are: • Financial assistance • Making students aware of scholarships • Counselling through Psychology Department to emotionally insecure/unstable students ( 25-30 students per year). • 1.Parental counseling 2. coping up with failure (50-60 students per year) 3. what to expect when you expect from your ward (8-10 students per year) 4. Counseling on appropriate use of mobile for girl students ( 8-10 students per year) • Career counselling through our Career Counselling Cell • Extra coaching in day-to-day studies for those who need it • Extra coaching for students failing their subjects • Grievance Redressal Cell for students • Placement Cell • Counselling to parents of girl students who are forced to give up studies for marriage

2.3.8 Provide details of innovative teaching approaches/methods adopted by the faculty during the last four years? What are the efforts made by the institution to encourage the faculty to adopt new and innovative approaches and the impact of such innovative practices on student learning?

There are various learning techniques that are used to enhance the learning experience for our students: • Activities on Vocabulary Enrichment by the English Department.

• Development of a Teaching Tool that boosts learner confidence by the English Department. (A paper on this tool was presented at the TESOL Arabia conference at Dubai in 2013 was much appreciated.) • E-STAR (Every Saturday Test And Revision) - an activity by the Commerce Department aimed at enhancing results. • Suvichar Sangraha - A combined activity of English, Marathi and Sanskrit Departments wherein students collect proverbs in these languages and get prizes for the best ones. • SQR3 - Search, Question, Read thrice. Again, an activity of the Commerce Department aimed at encouraging students to study more. • Poetry Writing Workshop by the Marathi Department. • Meditation, Pranayam sessions to improve concentration. • Chart-making on Sanskrit Grammar. • GK competition by the Sanskrit Department aimed at clearing the NET/SET exam.

2.3.9 How are library resources used to augment the teaching-learning process?

C.P. & Berar College has an excellent library that is well-stocked with textbooks, reference books, encyclopaedia, journals, newspapers, and other publications. There is ample reading room for students and they routinely make use of this. The library has taken certain steps to ensure that the experience of students is hassle free and enjoyable: • Issuing BT cards on the same day as students‘ admission • Digitising the library database • Digitising all library processes • Ensuring instant retrieval of books • Promptly ordering new recommended books • Stocking new updated syllabi • Displaying syllabi for UG students • Displaying ‗book of the month‘ for students to read

2.3.10 Does the institution face any challenges in completing the curriculum within the planned time frame and calendar? If ‗yes‘, elaborate on the challenges encountered and the institutional approaches to overcome these.

No, the institution does not usually face challenges in completing the curriculum within the planned time frame and calendar. However, there are sometimes some unexpected or unavoidable circumstances due to which there is a slight delay. This are promptly addressed in the following manner: • Retirement of a teacher: This is something that can be foreseen much beforehand; however, sometimes it is difficult to place an advertisement for a regular teacher. In such a case, qualified teachers are hired on a temporary basis. • Maternity Leave: This gap is similarly addressed by hiring a qualified teacher on a temporary basis. • Teachers‘ agitations: While agitations are very infrequent and only undertaken as the last resort, they sometimes become inevitable. At such times, we are careful not to let our issues affect the future of our students. Our last agitation was over 5 years ago when classes suffered for about a month and a half. All the time thus lost was made up for by holding classes on Sundays and during vacations. • Sick Leave: The teacher who has gone on extended sick leave usually completes his or her course by engaging extra classes. When the leave is too long for that, qualified teachers are hired for the time being.

2.3.11 How does the institute monitor and evaluate the quality of teaching learning?

The best indicator of the quality of teaching-learning is considered to be the University result. However, by the time the result is out, it is already too late. It is more important to find out the quality during the session and take remedial action if needed. The following steps are taken to help in the matter: • Student feedback is taken once a year for U.G and P.G. courses and about and career oriented courses, add on courses, twinning courses etc. once for a batch. Of late, for several important co-curricular programmes separate feedback is taken • Parent-Teacher Meets • The Teacher-Guardian Scheme • Monthly monitoring by the Heads of Departments • Monthly monitoring by the Principal of single-man departments • Perusal of Academic Diary by Principal • Use of unit test/surprise test results as indicators • Informal talks with students by Heads and Principal 56

2.4 Teacher Quality

2.4.1 Provide the following details and elaborate on the strategies adopted by the college in planning and management (recruitment and retention) of its human resource (qualified and competent teachers) to meet the changing requirements of the curriculum.

Apart from the Principal, there are a total of 22 staff members in C.P. & Berar College.

Highest Professor Associate Professor Assistant Professor Total Qualification

Male - Female Male - Female Male - Female

Permanent 00 00 05 04 06 07 22 Teachers

M.Phil. 04 00 04 03 11

PG 05 04 06 07 22

Recruitment of staff is done strictly in accordance with government and university directives. As for retention, the college has rarely faced a situation when it lost any of its staff members to other colleges or organisations. In the rare cases when it has happened, people have left for higher posts and the college has whole-heartedly supported their endeavours. In the last five years, only two staff members have left the college; of them, one has already joined the college again, while the other has expressed his desire to join from the next academic session. The college is blessed with some of the best academics in Nagpur and the college is appreciative of the fact. All possible facilities for personal and professional growth are extended to the staff and their achievements are publicly acknowledged and appreciated. Because of this, our staff feels a sense of belonging and is happy to stay here until retirement.

2.4.2 How does the institution cope with the growing demand/scarcity of qualified faculty to teach new programmes/modern areas (emerging areas) of study being introduced

(Biotechnology, IT, Bioinformatics, etc.)? Provide details on the efforts made by the institution in this direction and the outcome during the last three years.

Our college does not run courses in the Science stream, so the question of being able to teach scientific advances is not a challenge we have to deal with. All the same, there are areas in Commerce where new software is being used, or areas in Arts where videos are now available on existing material. At such times, the college has introduced short term courses in softwares like Tally and Web Designing. Since these were only short term courses, experts from outside were called in to teach the subject. As for videos, they can, and have been, shown by the teachers themselves as all of them are conversant enough with technology to search online for them, procure them, and play them for students. Teachers are also encouraged to attend Refresher and Orientation Courses or other short term training courses in order to update their knowledge.

2.4.3 Providing details on staff development programmes during the last four years. Elaborate on the strategies adopted by the institution in enhancing the teacher quality.

Among measures taken to enhance teacher quality are: A) Nomination to Staff Development Programmes Details of Refresher and Orientation Courses held by the Academic Staff College, seminars, short term programmes, workshops, etc. during the last five years:

It is noteworthy that one of our staff members, Shri J.K. Mahajan, who looked after the NSS Department for some years, has also completed a Refresher Course in the subject though it was not strictly required. B) Faculty Training programmes organised by the institution to empower and enable the use of various tools and technology for improved teaching-learning.

2.4.4 What policies/systems are in place to recharge teachers? (eg: providing research grants, study leave, support for research and academic publications, teaching experience in other national institutions and specialised programmes, industrial engagement, etc.)

There is an almost blanket policy on recharging teachers and that is to be supportive of them in their endeavours. Since the college faces a severe funds crunch, it is unreasonable to expect monetary support from the college; however, wherever funding can be sought from outside agencies like the UGC or certain NGOs, all documentary support is promptly supplied by the college. Among other measures are: • Relieving teachers for refresher/orientation courses • Sanction Duty Leave for academic activities • Encouraging teachers to conduct doctoral research • Encouraging teachers to conduct major or minor research projects • Incentivising such activities by public acknowledgement of teachers‘ achievements and felicitation of teachers • Encouraging teachers to organise seminars/conferences/workshops • Providing excellent library and internet facilities to teachers • Publication of a multidisciplinary research journal ‗Sanshodhan‘ in which all teachers are encouraged to publish their research

2.4.5 Give the number of faculty who received awards/recognition at the state, national and international level for excellence in teaching during the last four years. Enunciate how the institutional culture and environment contributed to such performance/achievement of the faculty.

Awards Number of Recepients

State Level 3

National Level 1

International Level 1

The college is always very supportive of any creative or academic endeavour of its staff. From relieving staff when needed to lessening their teaching burden to allowing them to leave early or come late when necessary, the college sees to it that if someone is doing something noteworthy, support in various forms is extended to them. Sometimes this has to be done informally as a 60 certain measure may not be strictly in adherence to the norm. This is left to the discretion of the Principal who usually extends all possible help as long as care is taken to prevent academics from being affected.

2.4.6 Has the institution introduced evaluation of teachers by the students and external Peers? If yes, how is the evaluation used for improving the quality of the teaching-learning process?

Although evaluation of teachers is not done by external Peers, we have introduced evaluation by students long back. Feedback is taken from students once every year and this feedback is analysed by the Feedback Committee. The feedback of every teacher is conveyed to them and they are given suggestions on improvement. It has been noticed that in most cases, it was not necessary to give the same corrective suggestions a second time around, indicating that the corrective actions were indeed carried out by concerned teachers. Another thing that has been of help is that whenever some innovative technique is noticed through the feedback by the Feedback Committee, it is brought to the notice of the IQAC. The IQAC then suggests ways of adopting the same technique across subjects wherever possible. For example, when students of a certain section wrote that a teacher had made their cumulative attendance available to them, this practice was adopted across board and cumulative attendance records are now generated in the first week of every month.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1 How does the institution ensure that the stakeholder of the institution especially students and faculty are aware of the evaluation processes?

To answer this correctly, evaluation within the college and by the university will both have to be considered. Evaluation by University: This is a well publicised process and, since most teachers of the college go for valuation at the Spot Valuation Centre, they are well aware of the process. The instructions of the university are quite explicit. In the case of first timers, they are free to take the help of their peer who are also at the Centre for valuation. Whenever there are any changes, they are made available in printed format at the Valuation Centre. Thus, there is hardly any room for ambiguity. 61

Evaluation by College: At the college level there are surprise tests, unit tests and a mock test at the end of the session. The evaluation of these tests follow a uniform pattern. Surprise tests are of 10 marks each and are usually short ones with either multiple choice or one line answers. For these tests, it is easiest to swap papers among students and have them mark each others‘ papers with the teacher providing the correct answers. The instructions for this evaluation is given to students before the start of the test. Unit tests are worth 20 marks each and are a mix of 1-2 mark questions and longer 5 mark questions. Before the actual test, students are made aware of how marking will be done, how much they are expected to write for a 2 mark question and how it will be different from a 5 mark question, and how to study in order to score the maximum marks. For the mock test, students are repeatedly told through the year how they can reach the minimum passing marks and how marking is done at the university level. The real aim is of course to score as much as possible, but since our students have difficulty passing their subjects, it is important to at least give them confidence that they can score minimum passing marks. The evaluation pattern for the mock exam is exactly the same as that of the university and students are made aware of this through their classes. Teachers, as mentioned, are all valuers at the university and are thus already aware of the process.

2.5.2 What are the major evaluation reforms of the university that the institution has adopted and what are the reforms initiated by the institution on its own?

Since evaluation is entirely under the purview of the affiliating university, reforms cannot be initiated by the college. However, in recent years, the university has sought to bring in transparency by providing photocopies of answer sheets to students who want to challenge their marks. Whenever students come to their teachers for guidance on whether their paper warrants more marks, teachers diligently go through the paper and provide proper advice and suggestions. There is indeed scope for internal evaluation in one subject of the Commerce stream and in practical subjects like Home Economics and Psychology; however, here too the norms are laid down by the university and the college has no say in the process.

2.5.3 How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation reforms of university and those initiated by the institution on its own?

As already mentioned, evaluation is entirely the purview of the affiliating university and thus the college is unable to bring any changes or reforms on its own in the field. As for adoption of reforms made by the university, these are carried out at the level of the university and have no bearing on the college.

2.5.4 Provide details on the formative and summative evaluation approaches adapted to measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have positively impacted the system. Monthly tests, tests based on Units, surprise tests etc. are conducted by all departments. Seminars and group discussions are also conducted periodically or on demand by students.

2.5.5 Enumerate on how the institution monitors and communicates the progress and performance of students through the duration of the course/programme? Provide an analysis of the students results/achievements (Programm/course wise for last four years) and explain the differences if any and patterns of achievement across the programmes/courses offered.

At C.P. & Berar College, we feel it is important to let students know at all times how far they have progressed so they can be better prepared for their final exam. The following measures are taken to do this: • Making scores of unit and surprise tests available to students • Allowing repeat tests to students who undertake to do better • Comparison of test scores by subject teacher and encouragement to students to do better • Comparison of test scores by teacher guardian and encouragement to students to do better • Extra coaching to students in such need • Analysis of final results to seek ways to improve results

2.5.6 Detail on the significant improvements made in ensuring rigor and transparency in the internal assessment during the last four years and weightages assigned for the overall development of students (weightage for behavioural aspects, independent learning, communication skills, etc.)

Internal assessment is only done in three subjects in the college: Marketing (Commerce), and Psychology and Home Economics (both subjects from the Arts Stream). The norm is that 5 marks 63 each are assigned to the viva, assignment, performance in mock test and overall behaviour. Transparency is ensured on all four counts thus: Viva: An external examiner nominated by the university decides marks for the Viva in consultation with the internal examiner of the college. Assignment: Marks for the assignment are put up on the notice board and teachers are open to pleas of students for improvement. Marks in the internal assessment are proportionate to the marks scored in the assignment. Performance in mock test: Here too, marks are displayed and students have access to their score and that of others. Marks in the internal assessment are proportionate to the marks scored in the mock test. Overall Behaviour: Marks given by the subject teacher are always subject to the scrutiny of the teacher guardian. Transparency is thus ensured even if behaviour cannot be really measured in real terms.

2.5.7 Does the institution and individual teachers use assessment/evaluation as an indicator for evaluating student performance, achievement of learning objectives and planning? If ‗yes‘, provide details on the process and cite a few examples.

Internal assessment is only done in a total of three subjects across streams. Then again, Psychology and Home Economics, where internal assessment is done, are both optional subjects. Besides, Psychology is considered a difficult subject and only about 30-40 students opt for it every year. Home Economics is preferred exclusively by girls. Thus, internal assessment cannot really be considered an indicator for evaluating student performance, achievement of learning objectives and planning. While it may be relevant to some extent to the subject concerned, it is certainly not relevant to the college as a whole.

2.5.8 What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation both at the college and University level?

Grievance redressal with regard to evaluation is carried out thus: At College Level: Students approach the concerned teacher and put forth their case for better marks. If it is found justified, teachers make appropriate changes. However, students are not too worried about internal assessment as, in most cases, it does not affect their overall percentage at the University level. 64

At University Level: The University allows students to challenge the marks given to their final exam paper. Students ask for photocopies of their papers and the university provides them for a fee. If the student finds his expectations justified, he or she may challenge the marks and apply for revaluation.

2.6 Student Performance and Learning Outcomes

2.6.1 Does the college have clearly stated learning outcomes? If yes, give details on how the students and staff are made aware of these.

Placement of students is a key to understand learning outcomes. Since a fair number of students get modest placements in local markets it can be assumed that learning outcomes are to some extent satisfactory. However, since the college has no role in the framing of the syllabus, learning outcomes cannot be decided by us. It is the Board of Studies of that particular subject that decides learning outcomes. These are mentioned on the syllabus and the syllabus is circulated among affiliated colleges for them to make themselves familiar with the outcomes.

2.6.2 How are the teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the institution structured to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcomes?

While expected outcomes are decided by the affiliating university, it is up to the college to see to it that they are achieved. This is done by: • Ensuring that the entire syllabus is covered • Ensuring that time lost due to various circumstances is covered by extra classes • Ensuring that weak students get extra coaching • Ensuring that assignments, homework, etc is given in agreement with the expected outcomes • Ensuring that students are aware of their scores in surprise, unit and mock tests • Arranging other academic activities like guest lectures, seminars, etc where needed

2.6.3 What are the measures/initiatives taken up by the institution to enhance the social and economic relevance (quality jobs, entrepreneurship, innovation and research aptitude) of the courses offered?

Once again, the college finds its hands tied as it is unable to decide the content of the subjects being taught. However, measures are taken to make the given content as relevant as possible: • Remedial courses in English and classes on Spoken English are held regularly to allow students to get better employment. • Workshops and guest lectures on entrepreneurship are held particularly for Commerce students. • The Home Economics Department provides ample opportunity for girls to be innovative and thus become self-reliant financially. • The Data Collection Centre of the college and the surveys undertaken promote research aptitude among students. • Students are taken for industrial visits to inspire them to aim for such jobs.

2.6.4 How does the institute collect and analyse data on student learning outcomes and use it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning?

The only real indicator of whether student learning outcomes is the university result. Collection of this data is easy as it is available on the university website. A committee constituted specifically for this purpose collects and analyses this data. Every year, in a meeting of the Principal with the staff, the findings are discussed and plans for overcoming hurdles are discussed. The IQAC takes an active role in the meeting and includes the suggestions in next year‘s perspective plan. Of course, the continuous assessment is also a minor indicator; minor, because barring three optional subjects, it has no bearing on the final result. The collection of this data is left to the subject teacher. He or she is given the autonomy to take corrective measures. However, if a teacher guardian finds it necessary, he or she has the right to discuss the matter with the subject teacher.

2.6.5 How does the institution monitor and ensure the achievement of learning outcomes?

Learning outcome is monitored by Principal, Vice Princial and Head of the Departments with the inputs of ―result analysis committee‖. For two meetings are held every year. Learning outcomes are clearly and unambiguously communicated to the teachers and students. The institution ensures that classes are engaged regularly by all the teachers and the students are 66 attending lectures without fail. The portion is completed well in advance before the commencement of the University examination by conducting extra classes and remedial coaching so that the students should get ample time for study and they can approach their respective teachers to clear their doubts.

2.6.6 What are the graduates‘ attributes specified by the college/affiliating university? How does the college ensure the attainment of these by students?

As a college, we have said that we want students ‗sound of knowledge, competent in their chosen profession and confident of their ability to steer society towards ever better values‘. This is ensured by a sound teaching-learning evaluation system with checks and balances , with the aid of good learning resources and ICT resources, complemented by good relationship with outside stakeholders and a good student support systems. Painstaking and sincere inputs are given to ensure that students successfully complete bachelor's degree programme within the stipulated time and imbibe skills like employability, entrepreneurship and a commitment towards nation. These attributes are attained through teaching-learning evaluation process, NSS activities, job-oriented courses, Certificate courses etc.

Being in different fields of service their experience and insights in management and administration help us in a considerable way. The suggestions from them are sent to the IQAC of the college for an analysis. The employees are active in the administration of the college by being the part of local management committee in which teaching and non-teaching representatives are selected/elected.

CRITERION VI: GOVERNANCE, LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT

6.1 Institutional Vision and Leadership

6.1.1 State the vision and mission of the institution and enumerate on how the mission statement defines the institution‘s distinctive characteristics in terms of addressing the

133 needs of the society, the students it seeks to serve, institution‘s traditions and value orientations, vision for the future, etc.?

Vision: We envisage a generation of youth sound of knowledge, competent in their chosen profession, and confident of their ability to steer society towards ever better values. Mission: We at C.P. & Berar E.S. College strive for a continuous improvement of all processes and for providing an environment conducive to the pursuit of knowledge and overall personal growth. The founding fathers of the society were school teachers and were peers in their field. Foreseeing the role the youth shall play in shaping the nation they had a vision of higher Education, which was broad enough to address National and local needs. They were not satisfied with the colonial pattern of higher education and so the inclusion of moral values and skills is there in our Vision and Mission and Objectives.

6.1.2 What is the role of top management, Principal and Faculty in design and implementation of its quality policy and plans?

The top management, Principal and faculty have worked in harmony to design the quality policy of the C.P. & Berar College. To begin with, a committee was formed by the Principal to draft a quality policy that would truly reflect the ethos and focus of our college. When this draft was formulated, it was submitted to the Principal for scrutiny. After his suggestions, a second draft was brought out which was then circulated among the staff for further refinement. Only after it had met with the approval of the staff and the Principal was it submitted to the top management. The top management further helped in refining the draft. All improvements suggested by them were incorporated and the new draft was once again circulated among staff and submitted to the Principal for scrutiny. Once a consensus was arrived at, the draft was adopted as the Quality Policy of the institution. Plans drawn up for the improvement of the institution are a reflection of the adopted Quality Policy of the institution. Implementation happens through various committees formed from time to time depending on the situation. The top management prefers to give autonomy to the Principal in the constitution of committees. The committees have members from the teaching and non- teaching staff of the college. Often, the Principal heads some key committees and steers them.

6.1.2 What is the involvement of the leadership in ensuring: 134

• The policy statements and action plans for fulfilment of the stated mission: The leadership of the institution is keenly involved in fulfilment of its slated course. Through the IQAC, action plans for each year are chalked out and put up for approval by the management. The IQAC, though fairly autonomous, works with the sanction of the management and consensus is considered necessary for adoption of the action plan. • Formulation of action plans for all operations and incorporation of the same into the institutional strategic plan: The Principal ensures that all operations have been considered and given due attention before approving the action plans. In a meeting with the IQAC, these plans relating to different operations are incorporated in the overall institutional strategic plan. Through follow-up review meetings, it is ensured that the path chalked out is being followed in a timely fashion. • Interaction with stakeholders: The Principal, and sometimes members of the top management, are present at all meetings of Alumni and parents of present students. Besides being the reporting authority to the Placement Cell, the Principal also himself uses his connections in the Industry when needed. Interaction with students takes place on many levels - talking to students informally inside and outside of the classroom, holding meetings with Students‘ Representatives, studying the feedback analysis and taking necessary corrective action if needed, etc. • Proper support for policy and planning through need analysis, research inputs and consultations with the stakeholders: Consultations in the form of meetings with students, parents, people from the industry and alumni, are held from time to time and suggestions are taken as to what more the college needs to do to ensure that stakeholders are more satisfied. Need analysis happens through these meetings and through studying well researched documents on recent trends and expectations and needs of society. • Championing organisational change: The management of the C.P. & Berar College realises that change is the only permanent thing in life. This is applicable to every field including education. Since conventional courses are no longer as desired as they once used to be, change is needed on other counts to attract students. The management is very supportive of any endeavours to modernise processes and is also forthcoming with funds when needed.

6.1.4 What are the procedures adopted by the institution to monitor and evaluate policies and plans of the institution for effective implementation and improvement from time to time? 135

The procedures adopted by the institution for monitoring and evaluating policies and plans of the institution are: • The IQAC holds three meetings during an academic year to discuss its own plan and find out if the action plans are staying the course • The Principal holds review meetings a week after the IQAC meeting to discuss the progress in implementation of action plans • These meetings help in finding solutions to unanticipated roadblocks • The Principal sanctions any mid-course correction if needed • The changes are evaluated in the next IQAC meeting

6.1.5 Give details of the academic leadership provided to the faculty by the top management? Since the founders of the college were teachers themselves, the college has a long tradition of top management showing a keen interest in academics. The top management encourages publication of books, pursuit of higher degree and any activity which is condusive to academics. In the past days when there was no funding from U.G.C. to organize conferences and seminars, the top management patronized organizing such activities. In today‘s context the first L.M.C. of every academic year reviews academic achievements of teachers.

6.1.6 How does the college groom leadership at various levels?

Each teaching department has a head according to seniority. These heads enjoy a fair amount of autonomy and run the department after their personal style while still keeping the overall policies and requirements of the institution in mind. The management does not interfere in the working of the department so long as the objectives are achieved and timeframes are adhered to. The functioning is the same when it comes to various committees related to curricular, co- curricular, extra-curricular and extension activities. Work is allocated and the heads are expected to take their own decisions on how it should be executed.

6.1.7 How does the college delegate authority and provide operational autonomy to the departments/units of the institution and work towards decentralised governance system?

136

Besides core teaching, there are innumerable activities taking place in the college on a daily basis. It is impossible for the management to micro-manage every single one of them. Thus, delegation is inevitable. As stated above, Department and Committee heads are given autonomy over their work. At the same time, if there are any disputes or differences of opinion, the Principal steps in to arbitrate. So, it is not a case of the staff being bereft.

6.1.8 Does the college promote a culture of participative management? If ‗yes‘, indicate the levels of participative management.

Yes, the college does promote a culture of participative management at various levels. • LMC: The Local Management Committee consists of two elected teaching staff members and one non teaching staff member. The members are present during the meetings of the LMC and their issues are given a fair hearing. • College Council: The College Council consists of all teaching staff of the college. These meetings are held at least twice a year and all relevant issues are discussed. • Departments: Where a department has more than one staff member, meetings between the Head and other staff are held whenever a decision is to be made. Staff members even have a say in what topics they would like to teach as the expertise of each differs.

6.2 Strategy Development and Deployment

6.2.1 Does the institution have a formally stated quality policy? How is it developed, driven, deployed and reviewed?

Yes, the institution has a formally stated quality policy. It was first developed in consultation with the staff, Principal and top management. Following a consensus, it was adopted. It is reviewed at the end of each session in the college council meeting and it is debated as to whether it needs to be updated. There have been rare instances when such changes have been necessary and have been implemented. The quality policy is implemented by efforts of the staff and Principal.

6.2.2 Does the institute have a perspective plan for development? If so, give the aspects considered for inclusion in the plan.

137

Yes, the institute does chalk out a perspective plan for development every year. In doing so, the following aspects are taken into consideration: • Policies to improve admission status: Admissions almost everywhere are on the decline since the availability of numerous technical and non-conventional courses. In order to improve this status, we have come up with various schemes like scholarships and financial aid. This was first thought of in the perspective plan. • Policies to improve student services: The non-teaching staff has to cater to thousands of students. In order to simplify the process and make this interaction less of a hassle to students, the entire office was computerised long ago. New software and software updates have been introduced in recent years as a result of the decisions in the perspective plan. • Policies to improve library services: The library is an important part of a student‘s life and as such, the best possible services need to be rendered. The perspective plan thinks of ways to do this. One of the decisions that has been implemented is that BT cards are issued on the same day as the admission of a student. • Policies regarding academics: Academic policies, from how best to implement the existing syllabus to what new courses are being demanded by students are all decided in the perspective plan. • Placement Cell: The establishment of the Placement Cell was also initiated by the decision to do so in the perspective plan. The demand for the Cell had originally come from the students which in turn was taken up by the IQAC and the modalities were decided upon at a meeting for the formulation of the perspective plan.

6.2.3 Describe the internal organisational structure and decision making processes.

The internal organisational structure is pyramidical in nature. At the apex is the Principal. Under him are the Vice Principal/Principals, various heads of departments, Librarian and Registrar. Teaching staff comes under the Vice Principal of their faculty followed by the Heads of their respective departments; library staff works under the librarian, while the non teaching staff comes under the Registrar. Decision making happens in a top-to-bottom fashion; however, it is done after due consultation with all those who would be influenced by any given decision.

6.2.4 Give a broad description of the quality improvement strategies of the institution for each of the following: 138

• Teaching and Learning: The quality of teaching and learning is constantly sought to be improved. This is described in much detail in the criterion concerning teaching, learning and evaluation. However, here it may be said that the Principal is actively involved in the monitoring of the processes. He, with the help of the Vice Principal, ensures that all classes are held regularly. Further, during the monthly meetings of staff with their heads, strategies are discussed on how best to deliver the syllabus. If a certain section of students is found to be weak, measures are taken to correct the imbalance. Guest lectures, seminars, workshops, tours, etc. also fill the gap where needed. • Research and Development: • Great emphasis is laid on research by the management. Over the last five years, eight staff members have been awarded the Ph.D. degree. We have also held two National and one International Conference and seven Research Methodology Workshops in the last five years. • Similarly, staff members are encouraged to present papers locally, regionally, nationally and internationally. One of our staff members has presented papers twice in UAE and once in Thailand. She is now scheduled to present her paper in Canada. Another of our staff members has presented papers in Malaysia and Tokyo. Duty Leave is sanctioned promptly where papers get selected in prestigious conferences. • The Principal also encourages the staff to apply for minor and major research projects sponsored by the UGC. One major and one minor project has been completed in recent years while one has recently been sanctioned. • Community Engagement: • The Gokhale-Kagbhat Lecture Series, the Raju Deo Memorial Lecture Series, the Bapusaheb Khare Lecture Series and the Shankarrao Padhye Lecture Series, our four lecture series on spiritual and social issues, are much anticipated events as they are open to the general public. These lecture series were instituted at the initiative of the top management. • Through NCC and NSS, various community engagement activities like blood donation camps, eye check-up camps, health check-up camps, cleanliness drives, etc. are undertaken. The funds required for the same are sanctioned by the management as our management considers it the duty of the college to serve society. • Human Resource Management: The management takes pain to recognise the potential of its staff members and where found deserving, gives them opportunities to improve their 139

experience and thus improve their Academic Performance Indicator scores. Several of our teachers are given responsibilities besides core duties teaching. One of our staff members looks after the unit of the Yashwantrao Chavan Open University which is run from our campus, while another runs the Law Guidance Centre. The Department of Advanced Studies and Research is also run by one of our staff members. Good work is always appreciated and encouraged. The atmosphere is very positive where there are regular felicitations of staff members who have done outstanding work. • Industry Interaction: Industry interaction is done through our Placement Cell which keeps an eye on the changing trends and the needs of industry. It is the management‘s view (also reflected in our stated goals) that our students must become employable youth as a result of their education in the college and thus the Principal takes a keen interest in the activities of the Placement Cell. The head of the Placement Cell reports directly to the Principal.

6.2.5 How does the Head of the institution ensure that adequate information (from feedback and personal contacts etc.) is available for the top management and the stakeholders, to review the activities of the institution?

Some of the measures taken to ensure information sharing with management and stakeholders are: • Appointment of Registrar as Information Officer under the RTI Act • Sharing of information in IQAC meetings • Sharing of information in College Council meetings • Sharing of information in Local Management Council meetings • Students‘ feedback • Parent-teacher meetings • Phone calls to students‘ parents regarding their wards‘ progress • Letters to parents regarding attendance of their wards • Informal meetings between Principal and Management It may also be noted here that our top management is extremely approachable and staff members may call or visit management members at any time. This is also a good, though informal, opportunity for exchange of information.

6.2.6 How does the management encourage and support involvement of the staff in improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the institutional processes? 140

The management has always been in favour of participative administration. In fact, the very roots of the establishment of this college have been participative in nature. The establishment of this college was itself the result of the endeavours of two teachers coming together. As teachers, they were in a better position to understand the ins and outs of education. This tradition has been kept alive at C.P. & Berar College and teachers are considered big stakeholders in the wellbeing of the college. Thus, important decisions are taken only after due consultations with various bodies like the LMC, the College Council, IQAC, Heads of Departments, Heads of Committees, Registrar, Librarian, etc. Further, it has been the consistent experience of those working at C.P. & Berar College that any suggestion to improve processes or efficiency or effectiveness are very positively viewed and accepted. The college provides all possible support to carry out such suggestions.

6.2.7 Enumerate the resolutions made by the Management Council in the last year and the status of implementation of such resolutions.

Following resolutions were taken by Management Council in the last year: Sanction was given to annual budget. Sanction was given to Audited Statement Ex-facto sanction was given to annual increment of all teaching and non-teaching staff.

6.2.8 Does the affiliating university make a provision for according the status of autonomy to an affiliated institution? If ‗yes‘, what are the efforts made by the institution in obtaining autonomy?

Yes, the affiliating university does have a provision for according the status of autonomy to affiliating institutions. However, so far no such move has been made by any non-technical institute, affiliated to the R.T.M. Nagpur University including C.P. & Berar College due to financial implications. The C.P. & Berar College, too, would like to tread with caution and see how the situation develops. As of date, no initiatives have been taken to make the college autonomous.

141

6.2.9 How does the institution ensure that grievances/complaints are promptly attended to and resolved effectively? Is there a mechanism to analyse the nature of grievances for promoting better stakeholder relationship?

The management of the college believes that smooth and efficient running of the college is only possible if all stakeholders are satisfied with the working of the institution. To that end, a Grievance Redressal Cell for teaching and non teaching staff, and students has been established. This cell is headed by the Principal and is approached by anyone who has an issue with any aspect of the functioning of the college. Complaints are made in writing and the committee members on the Cell sit together to discuss how it can best be addressed. Solutions, once arrived at, are promptly implemented and stress is laid upon doing this amicably. However, it must be mentioned that a written complaint is treated as the last resort. The Principal as also the other Grievance Cell members always try to find a solution to stakeholders‘ problems by dialogue before extreme steps are taken. For any complaints from parents, the Teacher Guardian is approachable. The concerned teachers then contact the Grievance Cell if needed. Many problems relating to the library, working of the office and those related to cleanliness and hygiene have been addressed in recent years.

6.2.10 During the last four years, have there been any instances of court cases filed by and against the institution? Provide details on the issues and decisions of the courts on these?

During the last four years no court cases filed by and against the institution. The institution is free from any litigation whatsoever.

6.2.11 Does the institution have a mechanism for analysing student feedback on institutional performance? If ‗yes‘, what was the outcome and response of the institution to such an effort?

Being an institution responsible to stakeholders, feedback taken from students which is is fairly comprehensive. Alnalysis of the same is done by a committee. There are separate questions regarding institutional performance. There are questions on various issue and services and students are free to express their thoughts in the form. In response, the comments/complaints/suggestions are brought to the notice of the appropriate person/persons and 142 solutions are sought. If needed Faculty or non teaching staff is intimated about the feedback. Occasionally feedback was instrumental in improving a particular service. Student feedback has helped us improve library services, ICT services, common room facilities and services rendered by the office.

6.3 Faculty Empowerment Strategies

6.3.1 What are the efforts made by the institution to enhance the professional development of its teaching and non teaching staff?

The management of the C.P. & Berar College firmly believes that teachers can help students develop only if they continuously seek academic improvement themselves. Any such endeavours by our staff is supported and encouraged by the management. • Staff is encouraged to undertake research activities like Ph.D. and major and minor research projects. They are granted leave if need be to complete the work. • Staff is encouraged to undergo Refresher and Orientation Courses held by the various Academic Staff Colleges in the country. During the time, no responsibility of the college is thrust upon them. • Staff is also encouraged to undergo any new training in their subject. One faculty member of our college has successfully completed a six month online course which enjoys international recognition. She has excelled with 100% marks and was supported by the college during this course. • Staff is also encouraged in their endeavours in preparing and presenting research papers in national and international conferences. Support is offered in the form of sanctioning of Duty Leave. • Placement Committees are promptly invited whenever a staff member becomes eligible for higher placement. • Besides these measures, Library and Internet facilities are also available to staff to help them in their studies and research. • Non-teaching staff is encouraged to undergo training in new softwares relating to office work.

6.3.2 What are the strategies adopted by the institution for faculty empowerment through training, retraining and motivating the employees for the roles and responsibility they perform? 143

The C.P. & Berar College is keen that its staff should be well-informed, well-read and empowered through knowledge. In order to achieve this, teachers are encouraged to undergo training on various aspects by attending workshops and reading the latest books. As already mentioned, the college supports the academic endeavours of its teachers by allowing them to attend the events they want and by providing them with the necessary tools for empowerment. Besides training held by the Academic Staff College, other training workshops that seek to reinforce the content of the Refresher Courses are also held by various institutes throughout the year. Our staff is motivated to join these and retrain themselves on the latest trends. Initiatives by staff members to hold such events of our own are also encouraged. Our college has held a number of Workshops on Research Methodology during last four years. These workshops are a huge success with national level participation. The motivation comes in the form of appreciation by the college on any positive initiatives of the staff. At the same time, the Principal also ensures that news of any upcoming events reaches the staff within time.

6.3.3 Provide details on the performance appraisal system of the staff to evaluate and ensure that information on multiple activities is appropriately captured and considered for better appraisal.

The feedback form filled out by the students is a good starting point for performance appraisal. Since questions asked are fairly wide ranging, the appraisal also tends to be comprehensive where classroom teaching is concerned. The Principal goes through the analysis of the feedback forms and uses this to better the process of appraisal. Besides this at the end of the session, each employee submits a Self Appraisal form duly filled and giving information of all his or her academic, social, cultural activities. This in effect captures all activities undertaken by each staff member through each academic year. Since the feedback form is unable to find out information about the activities of staff members, this form is considered very important where staff gets an opportunity to showcase their good points. The Principal scrutinises all such forms submitted.

6.3.4 What is the outcome of the review of the performance appraisal reports by the management and the major decisions taken? How are they communicated to the appropriate stakeholders?

144

After going through the feedback form analysis and the self appraisal report, the Principal communicates the views of the management to the staff members. Where there is a scope for improvement, the Principal makes sure that the message is conveyed through encouragement and motivation to achieve higher goals. Review meetings are held to discuss feedback and self appraisal. The outcomes are conveyed through such formal meetings and also informally if deemed fit.

6.3.5 What are the welfare schemes available for teaching an non teaching staff? What percentage of staff have availed the benefit of such schemes in the last four years?

All government schemes applicable to aided colleges are of course available to our staff members too. Facilities like Leave Travel Concession and reimbursement of medical expenses can be availed of. The management is supportive of efforts of its staff to get bank loans procuring housing or other assets. Salary certificates are issued and documents are signed promptly. The college has also taken the initiative in the establishment of an Employees‘ Credit Co- Operative Society. Most staff members are members of the Society and have availed of loans from time to time. The Society has been successfully operational since more than two decades and has proved vital in times of need.

6.3.6 What are the measures taken by the institution for attracting and retaining eminent faculty?

In order to attract excellent faculty, vacancies are widely advertised in local and regional papers. The duly constituted committee of the university selects the best among the available candidates based on an interview, and the management accepts this decision without trying to influence the process in any way. Once having joined here, our staff have not shown much inclination to leave in search of other opportunities. The rate of flux in C.P. & Berar College is not very high. In the last five years, only two staff members have left the institution for better opportunities. However, one of them has returned to the fold after completing two years and the other has expressed his desire to return. This is clearly indicative of a good, supportive and positive work culture in the college.

6.4 Financial Management and Resource Mobilization 145

6.4.1 What is the institutional mechanism to monitor effective and efficient use of available financial resources?

IQAC looks after effective and efficient use of available financial resources as per directions given by the Principal from time to time. For more than last fifty years the colleges does an internal audit.

6.4.2 What are the institutional mechanisms for internal and external audit? When was the last audit done and what are the major audit objections? Provide details on compliance.

The parent society of the college is very strict about the internal audit of the college. After a resolution of the society, an internal auditor firm, namely Maheshwar gadre and Company has been appointed as the internal auditor. Since 1960 practice of internal audit is being conducted. Record of internal audit of last twenty years is available at fingertips.

6.4.3 What are the major sources of institutional receipts/funding and how is the deficit managed? Provide audited income and expenditure statement of academic and administrative activities of the previous four years and the reserve fund/corpus available with institutions, if any.

The state govt. has not disbursed non-salary grants for last many years and this is a major problem of many colleges. However the parent society has been magnanimous to offer funds for various developmental needs when they have aroused. Owing to this there is no defecit in the annual balance sheet.

6.4.4 Give details of the efforts made by the institution in securing additional funding and the utilisation of the same (if any).

The college plans to apply to ICSSR, Ford Foundation and other similar institutions for research or extension projects.

6.5 Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS)

6.5.1 Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)

a) Has the institution established an Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)? If ‗yes‘, what is the institutional policy with regard to quality assurance and how has it contributed in institutionalising the quality assurance processes? Yes, the institution has established an Internal Quality Assurance Cell way back in 2005. The Cell is instrumental in maintaining and enforcing the quality ensuring processes of the college. Not only is a blueprint for growth and development prepared by the Cell every year, it is also instrumental in allowing the management see the larger picture. The establishment of the Cell has meant that the management has been able to track trends more effectively and work towards changing with time in the education field. Particularly since many new avenues opened up for youngsters in the form of professional courses, admissions have been on the decline. However,

147 there will always be a certain section that wants admission to Arts and Commerce colleges. Tapping this source is important and the IQAC has helped in identifying areas where we could better ourselves in order to attract this population. The management finds this Cell very helpful in policy making as it gives timely feedback and suggestions on how best to maintain quality and how to better the existing systems. b) How many decisions of the IQAC have been approved by the management/authorities for implementation and how many of them were actually implemented? Decisions taken by IQAC are mostly related to academic activities. All the decisions of IQAC are approved by the management. including decisions having financial implications before they are actually implemented. c) Does the IQAC have external members on its committee? If so, mention any significant contrition made by them. Yes. The IQAC does have external members like the prominent Alumns. In the year 2010 which was the Golden Jubilee year of the college, An Alumni who was also the IQAC member was instrumental in organizing a play for students. One external IQAC member is instrumental in augmented placement of students. d) How do students and alumni contribute to the effective functioning of the IQAC? Students are the most important stakeholders in education and as such, their opinion must be given due importance in how the college conducts itself. Their feedback is the most significant way in which their aspirations and expectations find expression. The Teacher Guardians, Heads of Departments, and the Principal all contribute by keeping in regular touch with students and talking to them formally and informally about their views on the functioning of the college. These suggestions are forwarded to the Head of the IQAC for necessary action. In turn, the help of students is also enlisted in carrying out the action plans. For instance, our cleanliness drive is conducted with the help of students. Had it not been for their cooperation, it would have been impossible to conduct it on such a big scale. The Alumni meet held every year is also instrumental in getting the IQAC agenda fulfilled. One of the most important things the Alumni Association does is to raise funds for the college and provide employment opportunities for our current students. Both goals are an integral part of the plans drawn up by the IQAC. Stakeholder meetings are also conducted periodically. e) How does the IQAC communicate and engage staff from different constituents of the institution? Most plans of the IQAC are circulated among the staff members before being adopted. Thus, when the time to implement the decisions comes, the respective staff members are already aware 148 of their role in the action plans. All the same, a notice is circulated among those who are to be involved in any particular task (efforts are taken to convey IQAC decisions to the non-teaching staff by the Registrar). Signatures are taken on the notice as proof of the notice having reached them.

6.5.2 Does the institution have an integrated framework for Quality assurance of the academic and administrative activities? If ‗yes‘, give details enumerating its impact.

Yes. With the initiation of IQAC Academic and Administrative Audit id undertaken. Of late Peer interaction has also been initated for Quality enhancement in teaching. Recently a Call Centre has also been Launched for hassle free daily transactions of Non teaching staff.

6.5.3 Does the institution provide training to its staff for effective implementation of the Quality assurance procedures? If ‗yes‘, give details enumerating its imact.

Yes, the institution provides training to its staff for effective implementation of the quality assurance procedures. In particular, the coordinator and the co-coordinator of IQAC have attended many workshops and training sessions in order to understand the requirements and responsibilities of the IQAC. As a result, the members of the team have been able to • get a better understanding of how the IQAC should function • get a better understanding of the expectations of UGC and NAAC from colleges • plan ahead with a clearer vision with the above mentioned understanding • refine its previous processes • improve and streamline documentation • improve the standard of the college through improvement of the working of its staff because of the clarity in directives from UGC • The IQAC has organized two workshops – one for the teachinh and one for the non-teaching faculty- regarding total quality management. It has a very positive impact on the performance of teachers.

6.5.4 Does the institution undertake Academic Audit or other external review of the academic provisions? If ‗yes‘, how are the outcomes used to improve the institutional activities?

149

The institution has undertaken a formal Academic Audit in a format prescribed by external agency during the last three years. We also have a mechanism for an academic audit which has been internally developed. An Academic Diary has been developed by the college with the aim of documenting and analysing the working of its teaching staff. This diary is to be filled daily and contains information about everything from leaves availed to lesson plans to co- and extra- curricular activities to committees served by the staff member. This diary is open to scrutiny by the Principal at any time during the session and is submitted to the college at the end of each session. The diary is studied by the Principal and he takes necessary corrective steps if needed. The diary is dynamic in nature in the sense that it has evolved over the years. There have been times when it became apparent that new fields need to be added or the nomenclature of some needs to change. These changes have been effected in the next year‘s diary. So, it would be reasonable to say that the academic diary has helped the staff streamline its work and also bring in a lot of transparency.

6.5.5 How are the internal quality assurance mechanisms aligned with the requirements of the relevant external quality assurance agencies/regulatory authorities?

Our last assessment by NAAC was instrumental in clearing our thought processes. For instance, at the time of the said visit, the number of Ph.D. holders was just four . This was pointed out as not entirely satisfactory by the Committee and we were asked to stress research activities. Today, the number of Ph.D. holders has gone up to eighteen. The number of people who have applied for minor and major research projects has also gone up. So has the number of people who are now publishing papers and writing books. Further, the handbook provided by the UGC is also very clear on what it expects colleges to do. This questionnaire is studied before drawing up plans for development and progress, and care is taken by the IQAC to harmonise the requirements of UGC and our action plans for each academic year. It must be said here that the handbook has been most helpful in improving faculty profile and the overall working of the college.

6.5.6 What institutional mechanisms are in place to continuously review the teaching learning process? Give details of its structure methodologies of operations and outcome?

To continuously review the teaching learning process, the following steps are taken:

150

• Heads hold monthly meetings with their staff members to discuss related to all teaching learning processes relevant at that particular time • Where there are single-person departments, the meetings are held with the Principal • An academic review is conducted in the College Council meetings • The academic diary is instrumental in getting a bird‘s eye view of day-to-day conduct of teaching learning activities

6.5.7 How does the institution communicate its quality assurance policies, mechanisms and outcomes to the various internal and external stakeholders?

There are several ways of communicating our quality assurance policies, mechanisms and outcomes to various internal and external stakeholders: • The prospectus printed at the beginning of each session carries information about these • ‗Sahitya Sadhana‘, our annual college magazine, sometimes carries information about the achievements of the college which are a direct outcome of our quality policy • Programmes like prize distribution ceremonies, parent-teacher meetings, certain lecture series, etc. see a large attendance of parents and other sections of society. At these programmes, we get an opportunity to communicate our policies and their outcomes • Programmes of NCC and NSS are similarly oriented • We also get such opportunities of communication in our various health check-up or blood donation camps • Flex banners mentioning our quality policy have been printed and put up at strategic points of our college to ensure their visibility to all who come to the college

CRITERION VII : INNOVATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES

7.1 Environmental Consciousness

7.1.1 Does the institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities? Yes, the institute conducts a green audit of its campus and facilities. The institute takes utmost care of the health of the staff and the students. Two sweepers have been appointed to clean the

151 campus daily. Dustbins are kept in the premise and the students are encourages to throw garbage in dustbins. The institution emphasizes on the cleanliness of the toilets for providing hygienic environment to the staff and the students. All the toilets are cleaned by using disinfectant thrice a week.. The institution has Aquaguard water cooler which is cleaned regularly. Environmental Science is a compulsorysubject for B.A. –II and B.Com. –II students. Sincere efforts are made to instill ―green vigil‖ in them. Every year the institution undertakes tree plantation drive. Change/repair of water taps, shift to the use of CFL is under process.

7.1.2 What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly? Energy conservation

The institution is very cautious regarding the use of energy. The classrooms are well-ventilated. The students are made aware of the importance of energy conservation. They have been given instructions regarding the optimal use of energy. They are asked to switch the lights and fans off before they leave the classrooms. We have already started replacing tube rods with CFL/LED bulbs. Use of renewable energy The institution is planning to use solar energy for street lights in future. Water harvesting The institution knows the importance of conservation of rain water. We plan to install water harvesting system in near future. Check dam construction Not applicable Efforts for Carbon neutrality The institution has cycle, motorcycle and car stands. The institution has planted trees in the vicinity to control pollution. The dust gets deposited on the leaves of the trees and thus the institution can create pollution free environment for the students. Faculty has started sharing four wheelers. Plantation The institution does not have big campus. However, the trees are planted in the vicinity to create pollution free environment. The tree plantation drives are carried out to spread awareness among the students and the residents in the vicinity. Hazardous waste management The institution does not have any hazardous waste management. 152 e-waste management The e-waste generated in the institution is collected then auctioned and sold.

7.2 Innovations

7.2.1 Give details of innovations introduced during the last four years which have created a positive impact on the functioning of the college.

Innovations: The college leadership is aware that this is a world of innovation and all possible efforts are made to instill innovative approach in staff and students. In its bid to promote innovative and out of box thinking the college has brought out a book on Innovative entrepreneurs titled – Yashogatha. The institution has taken painstaking efforts to introduce various innovations in academics, administration and at other levels for the smooth functioning of the institution. They are as follows : Feedback Mechanism : The institution has started taking feedback from all the stakeholders in order to find out the efficacy and the lacunas in the curriculum, teaching – learning, teacher‘s performance and the infrastructural facilities. Similarly feedback on the relevance of important events has also been initiated. Computerization of Administrative Block : The administrative office is fully computerized. The administrative staff has been given formal training to understand the technicalities pertaining to the working on computers. Teacher –ward Tutorial system : Under this system, each teacher adopts 20 students to pay special attention to their studies. They help them out in their weaker areas and try to clear their concepts. They also ensure that their result and overall standard is improved. The use of ICT tools in teaching-learning activity. Educational CDs and DVDs are also used. Learner –centred mode of teaching and involving students in all the tasks related to the academics. Application Oriented Teaching: The institution has taken a policy decision to motivate the teachers to focus on application aspects of learning-teaching. 153

The institution has a system for green-auditing. There are efforts to make campus eco-friendly. Use of CFL bulbs is initiated. In response to the Smart City Project of Nagpur Municipal Corporation, Car Pooling project has been started by Faculty. While there are a number of good practices which have been institutionalized down the years, three Best Practices are worthy of special mention.

7.3 Best Practices

7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices as per annexed format which have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional Objectives and/or contributed to the Quality improvement of the core activities of the college.

Best Practice I: AROGYA SAMPADA:CLINIC FOR GIRL STUDENTS Goal Since its inception, the institution believes in the physical, mental and social development of every student. The institution tries its level best to organize various programmes and activities in order to enhance the performance of students. Since girls are still considered as the weaker section of society, it is observed that their health is quite neglected. Therefore, the institution always promoted the schemes launched for the betterment of girl students. The objective of clinic Arogya Sampada is to improve the health of girl-students, thereby improving their performance in education and sports. Context The majority of the students learning in the institution belong to economically and socially backward classes. Mal-nutrition, low level of hemoglobin affects the over-all development of girl students. During Blood-Donation Camp organized by the institution, it has been observed that girl-students can‘t donate blood on account of low hemoglobin levels and under-weight. So, Women‘s Cell of the institution decided to medically assist girl-students for better health. It has also been observed that girl-student come empty stomachs in the college which affects their stamina and concentration level. Either they bunk first few lectures or they leave early. So we concluded that along with personal counseling, some substantial medical assistance is required. The Women‘s Cell designed a program accordingly which is functional since 2012. The Practice 154

The clinic Arogya Sampada started in 2012. Dr. Sandeepa Paraskar, a regular practitioner and pediatrician agreed to come as honorary doctor once a week. She checks the weight and height of every student. It is found that girl students don‘t prefer to talk to male doctors. Many of them are not comfortable with their parents and other family members and prefer to remain silent regarding their health issues. That worsens their health conditions. But in front of a lady doctor, they open up gradually and boldly ask questions which they think are not socially acceptable. Counseling In the beginning we aimed only at regular health check-up. But surprised by the ignorance and lack of accessibility to information of girl-students, after a couple of months later we started counseling sessions. In the counseling sessions, we informed them about the menstrual cycle (M.C.), post/pre-menstrual syndromes (P.M.S.) and how to deal with it, the importance of nutrition-rich diet, sex education, superstitions regarding health issues. Considering their economic and social background, we prepared a chart in which easily available food items were included. We advised them to incorporate beetroot, lemon, curd, items rich with iron, like shendana papdi, rajgirah laddu, chikkoo, in their diet on every day basis. Catering their womanly need to look beautiful, we also medically prescribed them skin-products according to their skin- types and gave some beauty tips. This made the clinic a great success and girls flocked near the clinic every Wednesday. Distribution of Iron Supplements with Multi-vitamins By the end of the first year it was realized that medical check-up and counseling is not enough to improve the health of girl-students. By now, we had enough data in our hand regarding the health issues and problems of girl students. We held a meeting of all women professors regarding what can be done for the betterment of girl students in which it was unanimously decided that we would substantially support the girl students. Generic medicine revolutionized health sector and made medicines available at very cheap cost. We decided to distribute iron, folic acid and multi- vitamin supplements to students. We decided that when a girl student comes for heath check-up, we would give her the course of the supplements for thirty days free of cost. If needed, we would repeat the course the following month. All the staff members willingly decided to financially contribute to the project. How to distribute the supplements among girl students equally is a major problem. So the medical check-up is done class-wise and section-wise. Every week on Thursdays girl students of each class come for medical check-up. The counseling session goes on for half an hour. After that the doctor examines their weight, height and blood pressure, if needed. After attending their

155 personal queries, the doctor prescribe them medicines and also provide them the iron and multi- vitamin supplements as per their need. We also decided to incorporate girl-students in the project in order to inculcate health awareness and leadership as well. Three to four girl students are selected every year who take the responsibility of the management of the clinic. These girls inform the girl students of the respective classes as when to visit the clinic. These disciplines in charge also control the crowds and make the girls stand in queues. Girls often prefer to first contact the disciplines in charge if they need medicines, further medical assistance or counseling. The disciplines in charge are given special batches for identification. Evidence of Success A very positive and regular response of students is the evidence of success. Problems Encountered and Resources Required Problems Encountered It is really hard to monitor if the students take medicines regularly. There is difficulty in monitoring whether the supplements are distributed to every girl student. However, we tried our level best to increase the success-rate of the project by maintaining personal contacts, visiting every class room to check if the there are some students who haven‘t received the supplements. The other difficulties are the ignorance, superstitions as well as lethargy in girl students. Many of the students don‘t like to take medicines at all. Many of them suffer from mal-nutrition because of their wrong food habits. Resources Required The chief resource required was the availability of space. A small room (Room no. B20) has been allotted to the Women‘s Cell. The set-up for clinic has been arranged there which includes furniture, weighing machine, height-chart etc. Similarly, some medical apparatus for has also been purchased.

Best Practice II: Research Methodology Workshop Objectives of workshop 156

The Research Methodology Workshop aims to provide guidance to research students at every step, from the selection of topic, selection of methodology, understanding their problems during research and to motivate them on every level. The goal of the research Methodology workshop is to develop Research attitude for Quality research. This workshop aims to provide support system to researchers. The workshop helps the research student: • To understand the tools of research Methodology. • To understand the methods and process of Data collection. • To know about the sample methods and techniques. • Giving training to the researchers about statistical methods of analysis of data. • To understand the various forms of research design. The Context Since its inception the institution promoted research activities and encouraged the students as well as the teaching staff for post-graduate and post-doctoral research. The Department of advance Studies has been established in 1987 for the promotion of research activities in the field of Commerce, Social Sciences and Humanities. The Department runs the courses for M.Phil in Commerce, Economics and Marathi. This is the only department in the R. T. M. Nagpur University to provide these courses. The Advanced Study Department of the institution established the Place for Higher Learning and Research (then named as Ph. D. Guidance Centre) in 2007 to provide guidance to research students at every step, from the selection of topic, selection of methodology, understanding their problems during research and to motivate them on every level. Quality of research is a matter of great concern among the research scholars in the present time. UGC has taken a cognizance of it and has suggested a few measures for its enhancement. The first step in this process is to improve upon the orientation in research methodology. Considering the needs of the research students, the Place for Higher Learning and Research decided to start Research Methodology Workshop in 2011 as per the guidelines laid down for course work by UGC. The practice Contents of the workshop • Research Topic • Research Design • Research management • Questionnaire preparation 157

• Hypothesis Formation • Procedure of Research Proposal • Sampling • Methods Of Data Collection • Report, Thesis and Summery writing • Rules regarding Ph.D. • Practical Training of statistical Analysis • Skills of Viva Presentation and Group Presentations The workshop aims at training professionals and researchers in the skill and competence related to the systematic investigation of various issues and problems in the area of their study. At this level the workshop is expected to provide new and original insights into the problems are the area under investigation. Our research Methodology workshops include Research Methodology, Quantitative methods and computer application. The workshop is organized by our place for higher learning and research and invites the experts in the relevant field depending upon the requirement and background of the participants. The duration of the workshop is one week (60 hours ) which is equivalent to one semester and it is distributed as per the guide lines of RTM Nagpur University. The workshop aims at training researchers in the skill and competence related to the systematic investigation of various issues and problems in the area of their study. At this level the workshop is expected to provide new and original insights into the problems are the area under investigation. Taking this view into consideration the research committee included topics on research methodology, quantitative methods and computer application for the workshop. In the first year, the workshop admitted the students of R. T. M. Nagpur University. In 2012 it was decided to expand its scope by incorporating students from other universities. Hence, from 2012-13 the workshop has been organized by the Place for Higher Learning and Research which is affiliated to the R. T. M. Nagpur University. The research center invites the experts of national acclaim The response to the workshop was not very encouraging in the first year. But since 2012- 13 the R. T. M. Nagpur University made it mandatory to complete one week duration workshop on research methodology for the registration of Ph. D. and research students also understood its importance. After receiving the overwhelming response to the workshop the college decided to organize the workshop biannually.

158

The workshop is of one week (35 hours) duration, which is equivalent to Research course work. The time allotted to each topic is as per the guidelines of RTM Nagpur University. The time and topic for the workshop are as follows • Research Methodology: Time allotted: 15 hours. This course work is framed to understand the tools of Research Methodology ,to understand the methods and process of Data collection and to know about the sample methods and techniques. The first 3 days are given for the Research Methodology topic. The Participants are divided into groups.  On the first day of the workshop participants meet to get to know their group and plan meetings. All Participants meet to discuss specific presentations planned to avoid any overlaps of content type or methodology and plan for group presentations and subsequently join their assigned groups.  On the second day of the workshop all participants meet to discuss for questionnaire preparation, hypothesis formation & planned to make data for the same.  On third day of the workshop Feedback is taken. The focus is on appropriateness of content, methodology and message with respect to the training.  Quantitative Methods And Computer Application:  Time: 15 hours.  15 hours time is given to Quantitative Methods And Computer Application. This portion is also divided into 3 days for giving training to the researchers about statistical methods of analysis of data. In these 3 days participants learn about the use of the Hypothesis testing methods , SPSS applications and ANOVA testing for the conclusions of their respective research problem. • Seminars: • Time: 5 hours. • Seminars are organized in order to understand the various forms of research design. Each participant should take active part in the 05-hour seminar on Research Methodology on the last day of the Workshop. All participants make group presentation and present it in the seminar. • On the last day, examination is conducted. Paper is in MCQ pattern and questions asked in this exam are related to the presentations of the resource persons.

In Jan 2012 we had only 38 participants. In Sep 2013, number of participants were 42, In Jun 2014 it was 72 and in Nov the number goes upto 120. We provide the study material on Research Methodology and Quantitative techniques to every participant. This study material has been written by expert and recognized at national level resource persons. This workshop has been framed for active participation of every participant. For this purpose attendance is compulsory for all seven days to the participants. The full day progamme has been framed and it is incorporated following methods.  Group discussions  Group presentations  Poster and power point presentations  Actual practice of SPSS and computer applications

Obstacles faced if any and strategies adopted to overcome them:- Initially, the research scholars were not aware of the importance of the workshop which resulted in poor response to the workshop. Researchers also reluctant to attend the workshop for a week. They want demanded relaxation from the attendance. Then we tried to peruse of this situation and got reorganization of RTMNU for our research centre. We designed the schedule of workshop with some interesting and practical topics related to Research Methodology. We ask resource persons to take some 160

activities and energizers from the participants so they can take interest in workshop and not miss even single technical session. After getting the recognized place for higher learning and research our workshop received overwhelming response. Participants from various states including Maharashtra have come here to attend this workshop. From Bangalore, Hyderabad, M.P., Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Nashik,Satara, latur, Solapur, Kolhapur, Jalgoan, Wardha, Akola, Amravati , Chandrapur, Gadchiroli, and Nagpur Number of participants have registered their names and all have actively taken participation in it. Now our workshop received the real sense of National Level Workshop. Impact of the workshop It is the matter of pride for us that in RTM Nagpur University our college is first college who started this Research Methodology workshop for the researchers in this region. To provide support system to the researcher our college has been taken initiative to develop Research Methodology course for organize the workshop. In 2011-12, the course work was not compulsory to complete the course work for the Ph. D. Thesis submission. The IQAC has take initiative to develop this workshop in 2010-11.  The impact of the workshop is amazing. The participation percentage of the participants is progressively increasing. The following table shows details of it

 The greatest impact of the workshop is that the number of submission of Ph. D. Thesis from the participant is significantly increased in every workshop. The time span between workshop and the submission is also cut down and the participants are highly motivated to do their work fast and steadily.  The awareness about the research has increased considerably as the importance of real and good research for the quality development of the nation is highlighted in every workshop.  The workshop successfully created the atmosphere of quality research among the researchers of RTM Nagpur University.  The growth in number of participants shows itself its success story. Other institution of the RTM Nagpur university are also interested to organize this type of the workshops. Our institution help them in this matter and provide them the study materials developed by our center and also provide them the names of renowned resource persons. Academic Staff College, Nagpur, Home Economics Department of RTM Nagpur University, Mahila Mahavidyalaya ,Nagpur, Dyanda College ,Chandrapur, Nabira college Katol are some of the institutions who started this workshop with our help.

Best Practice III: Rakhi Arpan Ceremony Goal The institution undertakes the Rakhi Arpan Project with the following objectives:-  To develop the awareness amongst students to salute services of soldiers in the form of rakhis.

163

 To use the human and non-human resources of the students in developing the art of Rakhi making.  To motivate the students by demonstrating that Rakhi making can be a self employment activity.  To develop different welfare schemes for the students through the amounts received from sales of Rakhis. The institution takes pride in engaging a meaningful activity which caters the national pride and self esteem in students; make them cultivate a sense of gratitude towards the soldiers who are selflessly protecting our nation. The institution boasts it as the unique and the one and only activity in India. The Context Raksha-bandhan has deep impact on the psyche of Indian community. From Krishna-Draupadi to Humayun-Karnavati there are glorious examples across the continent of showing great respect to the thread of Rakhi and protecting the bond of affection symbolized by Rakhi. The Rakhi festival is a rich cultural heritage which vague the boundaries of cast, creed and religion. It exhibits trust and concern between brother and sister. The students of C. P. & Berar College share the same sentiments while sending Rakhis to the soldiers posted on the border. The Rakhi Arpan to the soldiers is a token of gratitude. This venture boosts up the moral of the soldiers.The Rakhi Arpan Programme is the brain-child of Retd. Col. Sunil Deshpande V.S.M., Vice-President of C.P. & Berar Education Society and The Home-Economics Departmentof C. P. & Berar E. S. College actively contributed in it. The Practice The institution has been actively engaging the activity since 2004. The project has successfully completed a decade under the guidance of Retd. Col. Sunil Deshpande V.S.M, Vice-President of C.P. & Berar Education Society, and the founder of Prahar Jagruti Sanstha with the strong support of the President Shri Balasaheb Mahajan. Home Economics Department of the institution undertakes the responsibility of preparing Rakhis under the able guidance of Prof. Prerana Ratnaoarakhi, Head of the Department of Home Economics of C. P. & Berar College. Principal Dr. Milind Barhate encourages and provides all the facilities to implement the Rakhi Project. Management of Rakhi Project This project is undertaken in the following way:-  Organization of workshop for preparing Rakhis.

164

 Organization of preparation of Rakhis.  Rakhi Arpan Ceremony Organization of workshop for preparing Rakhis Preparing rakhis on such huge scale is a difficult task. Usually we prepare approximately 15,000 rakhis every year. Being a collective effort, it requires contribution of money, time and hardwork from teaching, non-teaching staff as well as from students. The major responsibility of the execution of the project is shared by the Home Economics Department of C. P. & Berar College whereas otherbranches of the C.P. & Berar Education Society, namely Prahar School, C.P. & Berar School, Ravi Nagar Branch and C.P. & Berar School, Mahal Branch contribute in rakhi making. The activity goes through the following process:-  Purchasing of raw material  Processing of raw material such as threads, beads, sequins etc.  Making the final product.  Counting and making of bundles of 100 rakhis  Final packing of 1000 rakhis in each box. Every year a workshop of rakhi making is held in which students participate in rakhi making. Organization of Rakhi Exhibition Display of rakhis is organized each year to attract more students for participation in this work. As a result not only female but also male students are coming forward to prepare rakhis. At the time of exhibition, we also sell rakhis in order to teach students marketing and management of finance. The sum is utilized variously for the development of the institution. Rakhi Arpan Ceremony Rakhi project is completed when we send these rakhis to soldiers. A grand ceremony held a fortnight before the festival of Rakhi, in and around the month of August. In the ceremony the rakhis are hand-over to the Postal Services of the Army. They dispatch the rakhis to the various posts on the border of India. Evidence of Success The students acquired the mastery over preparing beautiful and colourful rakhis. Students are trained by actual market survey about how to purchase raw material for rakhis. An attempt has been made to inculcate commercial approach among students. The management of time and money is emphasized in order to save the resources.

165

Organization of Exhibition of Rakhis is aimed to attract students to participate in the noble activity. Workshops of rakhi making provides a platform to the students to develop the skill in rakhi making under the able guidance of Home Economics Department with application of elements of art and art principles within the low cost budget. A unique way of value education towards Rashtra-bhakti can be called to this mission. Bonds of love are built between the soldiers and students which can be depicted through the letters received from the soldiers.

Problems Encountered and Resources Required Problems Encountered The first and foremost problem is accomplishing the huge task of making rakhis. Though all the branches of C.P. & Berar Education Society contribute in rakhi making, the college shares the major responsibility. The students are willing to contribute the noble cause, but care has to be taken that they shouldn‘t miss their classes and their studies shouldn‘t get suffered. Hence the Home Economics Department conducts a workshop every year. The workshop is conducted after the classes are over. Secondly, many students of the Home Economics Department make 5–10 rakhis on daily basis. It is very necessary to plan the activity and then execute it within time.

35. Departmental SWOT Analysis

Strengths: • Long standing reputation of Department • Full time highly qualified faculty along with meritorious CHB Faculty • Spoken Sanskrit workshops • Good track record of research and publication • Many awards to Dr. Vibha Kshirsagar for script writing and acting. • Production of award winning plays. Eg. ‗He Mana‘, ‗Namo Devyai‘, ‗ Surrogate‘ , etc. • Workshops for students who aspire to make career in Theatre and Films

228

Weaknesses: • Some misconceptions, anxieties and fears in people at large about Sanskrit are hindrance in admission process. • Students from socio-economic backward class hesitate to opt Sanskrit as an optional language Opportunities: • Sanskrit improves articulation; i.e one can improve his/her diction in Marathi language also. • Students having proficiency in Sanskrit can take tuition classes and add an extra income. • Sanskrit instills good thoughts in students so that the quality of the lives of students is improved.

Challenges:

• Zero faith in people at large in ancient language.

Future Plans

• More focus on spoken Sanskrit workshops • Development of ICT material for teaching • More focus on Drama workshops for better professional opportunity to students
