the norms of the AP State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) and of the affiliating

university. There shall be a little flexibility in curriculum. At the college level the curriculum

is implemented incorporating the academic activities.

All the staff members submit their academic plans at the beginning of the

TEACHING - LEARNING AND EVALUATION:

The college is situated in tranquil surroundings, almost at the threshold of Palakonda

which is 40 Kms away from Srikakulam Dist Head Quarters. Most of the students are from

rural and backward area. They have agricultural family background. Hence the teachers have

to work sincerely and honestly to teach them and train them up.

Admissions are given to students as per the Government norms following the roaster

reservation points. The students are given a data sheet for taking in their personal details and

also for maintaining the counseling record. This ward counseling system helps the teachers

understand the students from difference dimensions.

The faculties are striving hard and implication student centered teaching methods.

And promoting students to involving seminars, group discussion, debates, quiz, field trips,

PPTs, Model preparation techniques etc and also involve them in study projects and

assignments.

As such, all the faculty members require to be trained in the innovative teaching

methodologies. Hence they are supposed to attend more no. of Orientation and Refresher

Courses. The newly promoted and directly recruited lecturers are given induction training by

the Government.

Bridge classes for the needy students (especially non subjects at +2 level) are taken up

to lay foundation for the students at the entry level. Remedial sessions are also held for

improving their low academic standards with the financial assistance of UGC.

There are twenty two teaching posts sanctioned by the Government. There are six

regular lecturers excluding Principal. There are ten contract lecturers working in various

departments. Lecturer in library science and Physical Education posts are still vacant. This


institution can’t afford to appoint teachers on its own when there is no sanctioned post in any

department. Hence many departments have one or two teachers bearing a heavy work load per

week.

The principal and one lecturer have Ph.D qualification, one lecturer have M.Phil

qualification, one lecturer has Ph.D qualification in Education and the remaining 13 lecturers

have only P.G. qualification. Besides that two lecturers got qualified in CSIR/UGC NET and

gaps if any. Two lecturers got qualified in APSET.

annual and other competitive examinations. They conduct home examinations and evaluate the

student’s performance. They assess the students by adopting formative and summative

research centre of the affiliating university. Yet the teachers possess research aptitude. Two

CRITERIA VII: INNOVATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES

7.1 Environment Consciousness

7.1.1 Does the institute conduct a green audit of its campus and facilities?

The Dept. of Botany and NSS unit have taken the responsibility to grow plants and

coconut trees in the surroundings of the college. The Department of Botany has established a

wide Botanical garden with medicinal, endangered and economically important plants. Nearly

100 varieties of plants have been planted in the college. Most of the plants are growing very

well. A few of them have lost their growth due to disturbances like cattle, lack of water facility

in the summer and lack of physical infrastructure facilities.

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

∗ Energy conservation: The College is making use of CFL bulbs for the college purpose and

the 5 star rating electrical equipment for all practical purposes. We believe that energy saved is

energy produced.

∗ Use of renewable energy: We don’t have any such resources for renewal.

Water harvesting: This College has constructed two water harvesting pits (percolation pits)

with the assistance of the students in the areas where water is collected through rain. We see

that water is not stagnated anywhere in the college. Thus we harvest water.

∗ Check dam construction: This College is in the heart of the town and there is no possibility

of any flood rushing into the campus. Hence no check dam is needed.

∗ Efforts for Carbon neutrality:

Carbon neutrality is ensured in this college through the following measures:-

1. by taking up more plantation campaigns,

2. by optimum use of LPG cylinders in the Chemistry laboratory,

∗ Plantation:

o In the rainy season plantation is taken up.

The NSS unit takes care of the plants on the campus.

o Most of the plants are shade bearing and create a healthy ambience on the campus.

o The eco club conducts awareness campaigns in the class room level with a motto that ‘each

one plant one’.


o This motto shall be translated into the respective villages of the students where they take up

plantation purposefully.

∗ Hazardous waste management: Hazardous waste management is done through the

following measures in the college:-

1. by banning use of polythene covers and bags in the campus,

2. by arranging dust bins for collection of waste papers, garbage across the college premises,

3. by removal of weeds and scrap and stray plants from the campus periodically,

4. by periodical cleaning of toilets and bathrooms by the servant attendant,

5. by avoiding ditches where water gets stagnated in the premises

∗ e-waste management:

o The Commissionerate of Collegiate Education, Hyderabad asks the colleges from time

to time to send proposals for disposing/using the ICT based equipment like computer

systems, hard discs, and other hard wares.

o In compliance with the instructions the colleges send such proposals.

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?

• In this college the Jawahar Knowledge Center (JKC) was started in 2007 with a

motto of ‘developing skills, creating opportunities and unleashing potential’ of the

students. The center is supported by the Govt. of AP under the scheme of ‘Rajiv

Udyogasri”.

• The JKC is linked to the nodal/district headquarters which in turn is linked to the JKC

Monitoring Cell (JKCMC) of the Commissionerate of Collegiate Education,

Hyderabad.

• Guided the students to prepare study projects by using e-resources

• Our students are specially guided on modeling, preparing and functioning of house hold

mechanical, optical, electrical, bio-logical and chemical appliances.

• The students are trained on managing and marketing tribal products.

• Students are encouraged to hand over the fruits instead of bouquets.

• On birthdays and important days staff and students are encouraged to hand over the

saplings to the Botanical Garden.


• Introduced uniform for the students to have a unique identity.

• Assigning the responsibility of the class room furniture and turn off the electrical

switches at the end of classes to the concerned class students.

• Motivate in the students to explain about “Health and Hygienic”, vaccination,

malnutrition, balanced diet, child marriages, maternal issues and effect of alcoholic

drinks on their health in their respective villages.

• Campus should be free from plastics.

7.3 Best practices

7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices as per annexed format (see page ...) which

have contributed to the achievement of the institutional objectives and/or

contributed to the quality improvement of the core activities of the college?

1. Title of the Practice: Students’ Mentoring and Monitoring

1. Objectives of the Practice

(a) To minimize dropouts through individual counseling,

(b) To ensure the participation of students in academic activities,

(c) To enhance skills through activities

2. Goal:

To render personal/individual attention and counseling to the students and monitoring them

periodically

3. The Context:

• Students undergo problems of stress and strain, because most of them are from the rural

and hilly background and are first generation. They have low family and social

backgrounds. Some of them are to work on part time basis and help their parents

economically.

• The teachers act as mentors at the micro level.

• Mentoring is required for students to achieve emotional stability and to promote clarity

in thinking and decision making for overall progress.


4. The Practice:

• Each teacher is assigned a complete class. Each student is given a ward counseling sheet

of paper where in the students has to fill their data and in turn submits it back to the

teacher.

• In these counseling sheets, the required data is asked for. During the course of year, the

teacher consolidates the individual sheets and draws findings accordingly.

5. Evidence of Success

• This practice enables the class teacher to minimize the drop outs during the year. It

enhances the percentage of attendance, performance at the examinations, participation in

various activities like quizzes, assignments, seminars, debates etc. the wards become

more and more confident of themselves.

• It also envisages a healthy rapport between the ward and the lecturer.

6. Problems encountered and Resources required:

• This practice requires well-committed, honest teaching staff members; who are desirous

of helping students beyond teaching hours.

• Now-a-days; completion of the syllabus and making the students participate in the

curricular activities have become a tough task.

• If a teacher can overcome his/her rigidity and develop a soft corner and sympathy for the

student community, this system will make wonders.

7. The Institution:

Name of the Principal: Dr.P. Krishna Rao

Name of the institution: Govt. Degree College

City: Palakonda, Srikakulam (Dist), AP

Pin code: 532440

Accredited status: C++

Website: www.gdcplkd.org

Mobile: 9440258086

E-mail: [email protected]


2. Title of the Practice: Inculcation of Research Aptitude in III year undergraduate

students:-

1. Objectives of the Practice

1. To inculcate research aptitude in the among undergraduate students and promote research

ambience in the campus,

2. To help the III year undergraduate student think in terms of qualitative research,

3. To train them up towards critical and creative thinking.

2. The Goal:

To involve the final year undergraduates in extensive reading, critical thinking and decision

making through collection of materials, preparation of suitable projects, publication in the

regional newspapers, magazines etc.

3. The Context:

• The Departments of the institution have been making efforts to involve the final year

students in preparation of mini study projects.

• The faculty members at first are giving the students some selected topics on which

collection of materials is to be made.

• They also advise the students to visit the library, consult some reference books, journals,

magazines, access the internet and collect the required data for the projection of the topic

and work on it.

• They also facilitate, guide and monitor the students through. To those who are

reasonably meritorious, the faculty members monitor the process of collection of data.

• Thus the institution works towards student development.


• Students are being encouraged to take up assignments, which will help them to go

beyond the curriculum and prescribed syllabi with the help of the internet and

information and communication technology (ICT) enabled facilities.

4. The Practice:

• During the academic year, the faculty guide the students prepare the projects.

• They collect the primary data by referring to the books at the library, newspapers,

magazines and journals and also from the internet.

• They prepare rough drafts and finalize before the submission under the guidance of the

faculty.

• There are some good projects. Thus the students are involved in the research activities.

5. Evidence of Success

Students are very enthusiastic about it; and utilize the internet and other facilities for completing

assignments. The use of IT is evident on the campus.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

• At the outset, this system has been questioned by students because they are not used to

research culture.

• But when the need and importance is explained, they stopped resistance and started

working sincerely. At length, it is concluded that if the faculty are serious about

inculcating research instinct, the students of future generations will be greatly benefited.

• Most students belongs to socially

and economically weaker sections

of education.

OPPORTUNITIES :-

• There is no government degree

college in a radius of 10 km,so that

students strength can be improved

in the years to come.


• The affliating university is very near

and the students can join in PG in

mathematics.

• There are opportunities in pursue

professional courses like CA

,ICWAI,etc.

• Merit students can get sent percent

of marks.

• Students study mathematics can

face easily numerical ability and

mensuration part in competative

examinations.

CHALLENGES :-

• Craze for engineering courses is

detrimental in attracting students

for UG programmes particularly in

science groups.

• Some of the students are slow

learners to understand the typical

portions of syllabus.

Financial assistance /budget provision

is required to establish departmental

library.
