They are also intimated to check the Academic Calendar, from where, they can know the tentative dates of the Test examinations and other relevant information. In the mentoring process students are not only advised about the intellectual upliftment, but also about their physical fitness, sports and cultural performance. Poor attendance and disinterested students are separately nourished by the respective mentor teachers. Entire mentoring process is executed by undertaking vigorous programme of teaching learning, sports and co-curricular activities in the harmonious ambience within the campus. College also provides an effort in mentoring the students on self reliance, skills in communication, coordination, planning and management, academic writings and presentation skills in different ways.

4. Projects are prepared by students on selected topics from the syllabus.
5. Tutorial classes are held especially for slow learners to clarify their doubts and queries. Teachers also give suggestive questions and answers from the previous years’ question papers. This helps the students to prepare themselves with the pattern of questions for the final exams.
6. Class tests are taken in the form of MCQ, Viva- voce and practical test. The corrected answer scripts are given back to the students. Suggestions are given for writing better answers.
7. For practical based subjects excursions and field reports are guided by the concerned faculty of the Department. The students are provided with computer labs. They are taught to use internet, search web page and gather relevant information.
8. Classes are also held in the smart room where teachers use audio –visual aid and power point to make the lecture more interesting.
9. With the introduction of semester system there is more frequency in the class-tests. The institution has framed a calendar for each semester. Therefore, evaluation is evenly conducted throughout the year.

2.5.3 A cademic calendar prepared and adhered for conduct of Examination and other related matters (250 words)

On the basis of the needs and demands expressed by the teachers and the students, equipment for the laboratories, books for the library, teaching aids for the classrooms, computer items and sports materials are purchased and maintained by utilizing various government grants and the college fund. Various committees and sub-committees of the college take the responsibility to ensure the proper utilization of funds in this respect.

The physical facilities are provided by the college to satisfy the needs of the students as well as the staff members. These include common rooms, drinking water, toilets, electric light, fans, canteen, cycle stand, substitute electric supply, e.g., generator, etc. In all the cases feedback from the students are given importance and decisions are taken accordingly to upgrade the quality of service. For uninterrupted facilities, college always made the agreement of annual maintenance contract (AMC) in some facilities viz. cold & RO drinking water, fire extinguisher, reprography etc.

The academic and support facilities are provided as per the requirements of the students and the teachers. These include classrooms, laboratory equipment, teaching aids, library facilities, computers, internet, smart classrooms, etc. The rules and regulations of the academic and funding authorities play the guiding role in purchasing and utilizing these resources. For example, purchase of laboratory equipment and textbooks is connected with the university curricula and academic programmes. Financial matters are guided by the rules and regulations of the funding authorities like the University Grants Commission and the State Government. In case of purchase of books for the B.Ed. section, guidelines of the NCTE are followed. Besides, the advice and suggestions given by various visiting teams from the UGC, the State Government and the parent university play important role in formulating policies for maintaining and utilizing all these facilities.

Sports related facilities are assessed on the basis of the students’ demand and students’ union’s recommendation and are provided on the basis of games and sports committee’s decision. Physical instructor and NCC ANM of the College take the entire responsibility for preparing the NCC and Games & Sports budget.

All purchase related activities are monitored by the Purchase Committee of the college. Documentation regarding purchase of equipment, books and stationeries and utilization of various funds in this respect is done centrally by the college office as well as the concerned departments where possible. Applications of information technology in all such activities have increased substantially in recent days.

The Academic sub-committee of the college prepares the academic calendar well ahead of the new session. The Routine sub-committee comprising members from each of the streams prepares the class routine keeping in view the number of working days and the availability of classrooms in order to give students enough scope for creative thinking and profitable learning.

v Teaching and Learning

The Academic sub-committee of the college prepares the academic calendar well ahead of the new session. The Routine sub-committee comprising members from each of the streams prepares the class routine keeping in view the number of working days and the availability of classrooms. In the class routine theoretical and practical classes are so arranged as to give students enough scope for creative thinking and profitable learning. Tutorial classes are held regularly to give the learners the first-hand knowledge of tackling difficult situations in the examination.

This is to check the writing skill of each student. Projects are prepared by students on selected topics from the syllabus. Class tests are taken in the form of short as well as descriptive questions. The corrected answer scripts are given back to the students. For practical based subjects excursions and field reports are guided by the concerned faculty of the Department. Mock practical examinations are also conducted for the Honours students.
