Education is equipping knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, habits, and attitudes with the learning experiences. Our college education system consists of Principal, Teaching staff, Non-teaching staff, Students and other educational professionals working together to enrich and enhance those qualities. Educational management is a goal oriented activities by planning, organizing, implementation, review, evaluation and integration of the professionals who are working in the educational eco-system. A management information system is actually a set of interrelated components that collect, manipulate, store and disseminate data and information and provide feedback to meet the institution’s objective. It is actually the educational-technology branch of an education system conceptualizes and develops Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education, integrating it with curriculum frameworks, staff development and management. Recently the focus of educational technology has shifted to online and web-based applications, learning portals, flipped classrooms and a variety of social networks for teaching and learning. Nowadays it encompasses several domains including collaborative learning, linear learning, online-portal learning and mobile-learning.
The Governing Body plays a pivotal role in framing the strategies pertaining to the various aspects of the college administration, academic and general development. Principal as secretary of the Governing Body, in liaison with IQAC, Teacher’s Council and finance committee, further formulates the working principle for the smooth functioning of the college. Governing Body is the apex administrative Body of the college and principal is responsible for implementing the resolutions adopted by the Governing Body. Teacher’s Council, a statutory body of the college holds meetings to discuss all academic and related developmental issues. IQAC is instrumental in maintaining and enhancing the quality in education and recommends necessary suggestion for all round growth.

There are total 34 computers in this institution of which 24 are desktops and 10 laptops, some of which are connected with internet connection.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Kalna College follows an Academic Calendar for the smooth functioning of the institution through timely discharge of its academic and administrative duties. Every year, the calendar is prepared well in advance of the commencement of the academic session (scheduled from July to June of the following year), keeping in mind the calendar of the University of Burdwan as well as the general annual calendar, so that working days and public holidays are distributed at par with all other institutions affiliated to this University. The Academic Calendar contains the following: · Name & Address of the college, Name of the affiliating university, postal, telephonic, email and web addresses of the institution; · Space to record the identity details of the student/ faculty member, as applicable;
· Number of teaching days, holidays and working days (specified on a monthly basis), with the sum total of each provided at the end, to depict the schedule for the entire year
· Holiday list corresponding to the general annual calendar; · Timetable to record the performance/ participation details of students engaged in NSS/ NCC and other co-curricular activities; · Pages to note the minutiae of important institutional events. Before finalising these dates, it is made sure that adequate number of teaching days are available prior to each examination so that the students are provided with sufficient classes to ensure the coverage of the syllabus. Separate attendance registers for both Honours and General students are maintained so that the percentage of their attendance can be calculated on the basis of the number of classes attended against the total number of classes given in a month. In order to adhere to the dates mentioned in the calendar, Teachers’ Council meetings are conducted from time to time to confirm the coverage of the stipulated curriculum before each ensuing examination. |

The main objective behind utilization of all such resources is to fulfil the academic needs of the institution. 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. The academic and support facilities are provided as per 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. For sports related issues, suggestions from the concerned department of games and sports, NSS and NCC of Kalna College are given importance. For installation and maintenance of IT infrastructure, the college engages the concerned staff members as well as outside competent agencies as and when required. 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. |
