Page 21/104 19-02-2021 12:07:52 Self Study Report of DNYANVARDHINI TRUST'S SONUBHAU BASWANT COLLEGE OF ARTS AND COMMERCE, SHAHAPUR We are habituated to these changes very smoothly because of our disciplined institutional practices. As per our institutional practices, all the members from teaching staff prepare and submit ‘the Teaching Plans’ and ‘the Calendar of co-curricular activities of department, at the beginning of every academic year. Same teaching plans are followed in the respective classrooms. The teaching plan helps the teacher to plan the curricula delivery in time as well as it helps in participative and experiential teaching and learning method. The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays pivotal in curricula delivery in our institution.
The college in association with concerned departments prepares the academic calendar which consists of curricular, co-curricular and extracurricular activities for effective implementation and delivery of curricula in each academic year.Departmental meetings play important role in planning the curricula delivery. In the departmental meeting there is discussion about the syllabi, work distribution and assessment work. In Departmental meetings head and colleagues informally discuss about teaching at the end of every term.
The Internal Quality Assurance Cell monitors the overall curricula delivery process through the collection of offline feedback / online feedback from students.
Our college has a Virtual Learning Centre, which ran various programmes to train students for various competitive examinations. Unfortunately due to some technical issues, ISRO has stopped the broad-casting of these programmes. But we do have a formal mechanism to guide our students for competitive examination from the very beginning.

1.3 Curriculum Enrichment 1.3.1 Institution integrates crosscutting issues relevant to Professional Ethics ,Gender, Human Values ,Environment and Sustainability into the Curriculum
Response:
The syllabi of University are more relevant to contemporary issues and needs of various values. When the 10+2+3 pattern was accepted in education field, the University of Mumbai framed a paper for the first and second year (for all faculties) called ‘Foundation Course’ to reinforce human value based challenges. These two papers create awareness among students about Environment and sustainability, Gender and Human values. The syllabi of every language departments always show a search for the values and conflicts of values through Literary issues as well as language issues. The syllabi of the department of Economics are not only concerned to wealth, development and growth but to social equality and social justice also. The syllabi of the department of History are full of conflicts with issues of human values and identities.
Page 24/104 19-02-2021 12:08:01 Self Study Report of DNYANVARDHINI TRUST'S SONUBHAU BASWANT COLLEGE OF ARTS AND COMMERCE, SHAHAPUR The syllabi of the department of Commerce are like a discussion on value-based economy that includes various professions and ethical services. At the F.Y.B.Com. level the syllabus of ‘Environmental Studies’ is the part of the compulsory subject, which immerge the consciousness about Environment and Sustainability. The paper ‘Direct and Indirect Taxes’ enhance the students value based best citizenship regarding to pay taxes. The syllabi of the department of B. Sc. (I. T.) are growing the awareness about value based uses of modern technology and professional ethics. Our institution practices not only these issues as a part of syllabus, but being teachers, we consciously try to shape the mindset of students on relevant human values.

2.3.2 Teachers use ICT enabled tools for effective teaching-learning process.
Response:
In order to make the teaching-learning process more student-centric and colourful, the institution emphasises and implements the use of ICT based pedagogical tools in teaching learning process.
The College has provided Laptops to all faculties which are used to make the teaching-learning process more vibrant and student-centric. Our faculties use tools like PowerPoint Presentation to enhance the topic they teach. Sometimes, screening of films or plays is arranged by them to sensitize the students towards social, political and cross-cutting issues. For instance, on January 3, 2019, Women Development Cell screened a Marathi social play called “Mulgi Zali Ho” (A Daughter is born) and held a discussion on the same. Our faculties of the Department of English recommend audiobook sites like Libri Vox to the students. Since these audiobooks are in public domain, they can be freely downloaded for educational purpose. The faculties of English make the students listen poems using Libri Vox recordings to strengthen their listening skill and pronunciation.
Most of the departments have departmental blogs that are maintained and updated from time to time. Students may procure study material from the same. To make the Student-teacher relationship healthier and establish a dialogue with the students most of the departments have Whatsapp group of students which stretch student-teacher relationships beyond Roll Call and establish an emotional bond with them.
The institution provides Wi-Fi facility to the students on the campus so that they can access different educational sites and update their knowledge and imbibe new skills. For smooth access they are provided with a login ID and password.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms 2.5.1 Mechanism of internal assessment is transparent and robust in terms of frequency and mode
Response:
The evaluation mechanism followed by the College to a large extent is in conformity with that of the affiliating university, i.e. Mumbai University.

The time table for internal examinations of courses are prepared by the exam department, displayed on the notice board. The CBCS also follows semester system. The Continuous Internal Evaluation system is framed by the Mumbai University. Teachers evaluate a student’s performance in a course through their interaction throughout the semester including one or more of the following mechanisms with written tests, class presentations/seminars, viva, home assignments, research project work. This essentially enables the teacher to get a positive feedback on a student's overall understanding and enhances the teaching-learning process. The remaining marks are awarded through the External Semester Examination.
The pattern and schedule of the continuous internal assessment is announced by the Examination Department at the beginning of the course as per university guidelines. While marks are given in all examinations, they are converted into grades. The semester end grade sheets have only grades and final grade sheets and transcripts have grade point average. For all the elective courses, the departments set the question papers and assess the answer scripts as well as conduct practical examinations. The College has purchased two high speed copier machines for the specific purpose of printing question papers. The entry of internal marks is made online. Hall tickets for all exams are received online; printouts are taken,

It also enhances their participation in classroom activities and improves the overall teaching-learning process. After the internal evaluation, their performance is discussed with the students and necessary suggestions are given for further improvement.
For undergraduate students, internal assessment comprises term end examinations and practical’s or assignments. Practical’s are conducted regularly and according to a well-planned and properly communicated schedule. All prescribed practicals are conducted and the students are given sufficient training in carrying them out. Thus, students are prepared to perform well in the practical examinations.
