PART-B. THE EVALUATIVE REPORT

Executive Summary

Lal Bahadur Arts, Science and S.B. Solabanna Shetty Commerce College (Autonomous),

a premier Institution for higher studies in Sagara town in Shivamogga District coming under

Kuvempu University is managed by Malnad Development Foundation of which Sri. K H

Srinivasa, the former Minister of Karnataka is the President. The college was accorded

Autonomous status in the year 2006 by the U.G.C. and the Government of Karnataka.



The College was established in the year 1964, with the foundation stone being laid by the

former Prime Minister of India Late Sri Lal Bahadur Shastri. The Malnad Development

Foundation established in 1964 under the president ship of former MP Late Sri K G

Wodeyar with a view to providing quality education to the people in and around Sagar at an

affordable cost. Though exclusively a rural college, it has grown by leaps and bounds to

further cater to the needs of the people to negotiate the changing socio-political realities of

our times, thanks mainly to the support system realized with the help of students, parents and

scores of benefiters who have lent a helping hand over the years. At present the college is

attracting students from outside Malnad region and also from other districts as well. The

college has started Post Graduate Courses in Commerce and Economics to see that rural

talent is not squandered for want of financial support there by the institution has augmented

its scope and space to meet the demands of the stake holders who can now remain here and

still do their Masters. But for an institution of this kind, the young men and women in the

surrounding areas and a little far away from here would have suffered neglect and ignominy.

The present strength of the college is about 1100 including P.G. students.

The college is located away from the hustle and bustle of the town some 3 kms away on a

sprawling campus of more than 57 acres of land on the Highway N.H.206 connecting

Bengaluru and Honnavara amidst a sylvan setting with hues of Nature providing a wonderful

backdrop to the teaching and learning ambience. The college has spacious class rooms, well

furnished library, and computer lab with internet facility, sports facilities, NSS and NCC.

Every department has its association like Kannada Sangha, English Study Circle and

Film Club.

The academic record set by our students since the inception of the college is in itself

evident that our college is one of the premier institutions in Shivamogga District. When the

college was affiliated to Mysore University and then Kuvempu University, getting ranks was

a regular phenomenon. This, we believe, is in itself creditable considering the fact that the

majority of students who have passed out have been rurally bred and for many, their first

exposure outside their place of birth was our institution. Even now the college comprises of a



majority of such students. Many of our alumni are working as teaching faculty in various

departments of the college also, some of the alumni are working as administrative staff in the

college and many who have gone out from here occupied responsible positions in important

government and private organizations including civil service.

Apart from providing computers to various departments, we have made the college office

almost fully automated which has eased the administrative work to a large extent. There are

still many areas like the accounts section needed to be upgraded and efforts are already afoot

to fully automate those areas including the fee section. Thanks mainly to the Computer

Science personnel and the Principal who have taken initiatives in this regard.

The institution has the essential infrastructure and human resource. The teaching faculty

is a judicious amalgamation of the young and experienced who are always eager and

enthusiastic to listen to the stake holders and prepare them to equip themselves to face the

challenges of our times. They prescribe themselves adequate and efficient bench marks with

which to surge ahead in the mission that is Education. Wherever it is possible they put to

great use latest innovations in teaching like the power point presentations, interactive

methods and so on to make the entire learning process student–friendly and student–

centered. Many of our faculty members are M. Phil and doctorate holders and a few are on

their way in achieving these degrees. Our administrative and support staff are well trained as

also equipped with skills. Their experience serves as a handy tool in visualizing our set goal

of making our institution one of the best. We are more than aware that there is a long, long

way to go and the light at the end of the tunnel is not getting dimmer, but brighter!

Infrastructure wise, our institution provides and guarantees the needed input to the stake

holders whose wants are being fulfilled on priority basis. A huge auditorium is coming up

which can also be spaced out depending upon the nature of programmes we conduct. A

multimedia hall is also being planned. Alongside these modern amenities which would suit

our launch into the best of 21st century with élan, the primary requirements realized over the

years are, though not astounding or mindboggling in matters of elegance and posh

appearance, are satisfactory and the facile space provided in and around class rooms have an

inbuilt area of the academic for the students to exploit. Class rooms in enough number, some



big and some small, cater to just the right atmosphere of learning. Though we continue to

maintain the standards set by the university as regards the student-teacher ratio, we are

making serious efforts by augmenting the infrastructure so that the university standards can

be improved upon not only in this area which calls for immediate attention, but also in

domains where teaching and evaluation needs are to be overhauled for better results. This

will be carried out once the inputs from all the concerned including the stakeholders are

received and the data so obtained are deciphered.

Science laboratories are regularly updated by adding newer and newer instruments. The

details of all these are furnished in the department profiles given later on in this report.

Doing the academic work alone would not suffice in the fast changing scenario of our

times. Consequently almost all faculties have devised plans to create and engender a far

reaching ambience to involve all the stakeholders including the general public in the process

of learning. The departments concerned have in their self-appraisal report have recorded this

individually.

The college is fortunate to have a very strong, powerful and efficient organization, the

Malnad Development Foundation (Regd) headed by former minister in the Karnataka cabinet

Sri K H Srinivasa. Mr Srinivasa, it should be noted, is a man of letters himself having

published poems and translations into Kannada of some of the seminal works of World

literature. He is a great inspiration with a refined acumen for institution building who had

envisioned a need for a college of this kind as long ago as 1960’s which became a reality in

quick time. His yeoman services should be recorded here. For, without his efforts the youth

in this part of the world would have been languishing and emaciating their talent on

unproductive purposes. We cannot but acknowledge Sri Srinivasa’s contribution.

Besides, the college has efficient internal co-ordination & monitoring mechanism which

directly controls the college. From the Management side it’s the vice–president, Sri. Basappa

Gowda, a renowned Lawyer in Shivamogga and the General Secretary Sri M V Mohan, also

an agriculturist and the other office bearers who are directly involved as liaison officers



coordinating and negotiating relationship between the college and the general public and

within the college it is the Principal Prof. B.C. Shashidhara with his teaching and

administrative knowledge acting as the ombudsman who monitors the day-to-day mechanism

inside the college. He is incharge of both academic and administrative wings. It is he who

controls the entire campus. He presides over most of the bodies of governance. He is an

inviolable link between the staff (both teaching & non-teaching) and the management.

The SWOC analysis of administrative and academic work, the periodical assessment of

the faculty performance by the Principal, a feedback from the stakeholders including the

public to improve the efficiency of the staff, a training to improve the efficiency of the

administrative staff are continuously some of the most urgent agendas before us.

The college has an inbuilt mechanism to check the work efficiency of the non-teaching

staff also. We desire to leave no stone unturned in improving the quality of education that is

being provided to the stakeholders by making the system foolproof and transparent.

Each member of the administrative staff is assigned a specific job which is being

supervised by the Office Superintendent. Periodic meetings of teaching and non–teaching

staff sometime jointly and sometime separately are conducted to discuss the administrative

problems and find solutions for them. Recommendation of internal auditing is also

considered for the improvement of efficiency and it is being done regularly over the years.

The following are various welfare programmes in our college:

Scholarship for economically backward students.

Book Bank facilities.

Environment awareness programmes.

Blood donation camps.

Planting of saplings.

The student who passes out from this college is a composed and well rounded individual

who is capable of negotiating and contributing to society’s progress. The hierarchy of the

college is uniquely designed to close the feedback loop from the management and teachers to



the students and back again. The experience of learning is expanded beyond the regular

concerns of academics. Perhaps one of the few colleges that encourage people to share their

failures as well as successes, the institution uses these experiences as sign posts on the

journey to the goal.

knowledge.

2.3.4. How is ‘learning’ made more student-centric? Give a list of participatory

learning activities adopted by the faculty that contribute to holistic development

and improved student learning, besides facilitating life-long learning and

knowledge management.

The faculty uses “chalk and talk” as the primary method of teaching.

Practical/laboratory work is also an integral part of all science courses. Physical

models are employed to demonstrate and explain various principles in subjects like

physics, mathematics and chemistry. In other subjects like geology, zoology and

botany, samples and specimens are extensively used. The use of charts, models,

samples and specimens makes the process of teaching – learning more interesting and

interactive.

Academic project work is compulsory in some of the courses like BBM, B.C.A

and Computer Science. With the help and guidance from the faculty, students carryout

live projects and prepare project reports that are evaluated towards the end of the

semester. Advanced learners are encouraged to take-up small research projects

involving literature survey, data pooling and experimental work.



The language departments generally follow lecture method. Illustrations, role

plays and enacting are done whenever required. Audio tools coupled with computers

and advanced software tools are also used to train students in the areas of spoken

English and communication skills.

In addition to the usual methods of computation, graph plotting and experimentation,

students are exposed to computer assisted programming, plotting and computer

simulation of electronics, physics and chemistry experiments.

These methods apart, the students are also encouraged for group controlled

learning experiences through discussion sessions, tutorial sessions, debates, seminars

and symposiums by students, panel discussions in humanities courses.

assignments, group discussions, tests and examinations. For every semester the

students are required to write one compulsory test and assignment carrying 20 marks

each in certain departments and two tests in certain other departments. The students

would be given, if they so desire, an opportunity to write their improvement test. The

test answer papers would be corrected in time and handed over to the students for a

perusal and taken back not before pointing out their pit falls and short comings in

their answers and suggesting ways and means to improve. This will help the students

in more ways than one. Reading their answers, they would gather an opinion of

BEST PRACTICE: I

1. Title of the Practice: Participatory learning:

2. Objectives of the Practice:

To encourage students to participate in the learning process in the class room.

Instead of being a passive listener the student has to participate in the deliberations in

the class rooms. They should feel that they too have responsibility to actively

participate in the learning process. With this the objective is to enhance the

confidence level of the students.

3. The Context:

This is most relevant in developing the adequate competences among the student

in the present day socio-economic and technological environment. In each period one

has to start class room deliberations with his ‘Pep Talk’ with warm greetings.

4. The Practice:

The student should collect the latest and important information related to

economic, commerce and management. The student should take notes from the

information along with the Xerox copy of the same. It should be pasted on a white

paper and the student should present it within three minutes and hand over the paper

clipping to the teacher. This presentation helps the students to improve their soft skills

like understanding, communicating and developing their body language.

5. Evidence of Success:

Photo copy of the presentation is to be given by the student; the teacher has to file

the same.



6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

Very few people try to procrastinate the presentation. Some have shyness and

hesitation to in making the presentation. After persuasion, they have presented. Some

say ‘it is the first experience to stand before the teachers, classmates which made

them little nervous and some have stage fear also. As for as resources are concerned,

every student has to spend just one rupee. Therefore, the cost involved is minimum.

BEST PRACTICE – II

1. The title of the practice: Learn read centre education.

2. Objectives of the practice:

To provide an opportunity to each student to make small presentation. Each one

has to prepare a papers for a presentation of five to six minutes. For the preparation

they have to visit library, refers the books, journals and relevant websites. This is an

effort to encourage them to prepare the paper in about three to four pages. With this,

their writing skills, reading and presentation skills will improve. They can also make

use of ICT.

3. Contacts:

The list of topics related to their syllabus is prepared. Each student has to choose

one topic and prepare the paper. Second semesters students in B.Com are given with

the topics related to their syllabus. Fifth and the sixth semester students are given the

opportunity to select the topic from their syllabus.

4. Practice:

In each class the student has to begin the seminar for five to ten minutes. In case of

fifth and sixth semester students, they have to prepare and present for thirty minutes.

Some students read the paper and the others use ICT.

5. Evidence:

The seminar papers prepared by the students are preserved. At the same time, they

share their experience that this programme has helped them to overcome the shyness

and the stage fear.



6. Problems encountered and resources need:

Preparation of a seminar paper is a new venture for students which made faculty

members to help them constantly. They come with insufficient information, non

availability of book etc. the faculty members have to help by motivating and

encouraging students.

Some money that this student have to spent for taking photocopy of the information.

7. Notes:

the Department

STRENGTHS:

1) Qualified faculty with M. Phil and Ph.D. degrees

2) Dedicated faculty

3) Well educated supporting staff i.e. attender.

4) Good laboratory facility

5) Good museum with good collection and maintenance

6) Good responsive students.

WEAKNESSES:

1. Number of students taking Zoology as one of the optional subject is less and the

existing staff are deputed to the other college due to fall in the workload. Hence

their complete involvement in this college and the department is not possible.

2. Single attender in the department. It is difficult to manage and maintain the

regular practical as well as the museum.

3. Since the student strength is less, we are not getting enough grants for the

laboratory equipments and other infrastructure development.

4. As 99% of the students are coming from the rural areas, their presence in the

college beyond college hours is very difficult. Therefore complete involvement of

such students in the extension activities is not possible.

OPPORTUNITIES:

1. If the students can remain in the college after class hours, they can be utilized

for various departmental activities and extension activities.

CHALLENGES:

1. Since majority of the students are from rural areas, it is very difficult to bring them to

the main stream. For nearly one year we may have to toil hard to make them adjusted

to the college level.



2. If hostel facility is provided for the boys, they can be utilized for some project

work and other extension activities, beyond the college hours.


1. To open a research centre.

2. To start biodiversity register

3. To start a post graduation centre.

the department

STRENGTHS: Highly equipped class rooms and laboratory facility.

Skilled, dedicated and experienced lecturers who are available all the time.

WEAKNESSES: Even with its honest efforts, the department is falling short in extending the IT

facilities to the students.

The students who join the programme/course offered by the department are not

getting the complete exposure to the current development in the IT sector. The

reason may be that the college is situated in rural area and majority of students are

from rural areas. The department is trying its best to provide the required

information regarding the same.

Student strength is the major hindrance in attracting IT companies to the campus

for placements.

CHALLENGES: Department is continuously trying to impart the required knowledge to the

students related to the Information Technology and Computer Applications. But

we are finding it difficult to cope with the current day knowledge requirements

and expectations of the IT Job Market where our students compete to get the Job.

As an effect of fall in standards of the primary education, the IQ level of the

students who are joining the course.

The infrastructure cost is very high and cost of maintenance is high.


The department is preparing to organize a state level workshop on JEE Concepts

and JSP shortly.

To strengthen the departmental library by adding more number of books.

The department is planning to rearrange the labs so as to suit for the hands-on

sessions.



Currently the number of student who joined either BCA or BSc (PMCs) is less.

The department has plans to improve this in coming days.

The department willing to start certificate courses in Software Testing and

Software Management.

STRENGTHS:

* Good infrastructure with well equipped laboratory.

* Good library.

* Full pledged staff with required qualification.

* Good environment for learning.

WEAKNESSES:

Introducing new courses or new combinations is not in our hand

No screening in student admission as number of students taking admission is

declining.

Work load problem.

As most of the students are from rural background belonging to either labour

community or farming community their basics in subject is very poor and therefore

we cannot introduce new aspects basics and therefore are less interested.

Government support towards aided college is very less except for salary.

OPPORTUNITIES

UGC is providing all sorts of support for higher education

Students with good academics can be well placed

Academic autonomy.

CHALLENGES

Newly started Govt. College posing challenges by taking no fees and

introducing easy syllabi.

Paying good salary to temporary staff is difficult.


Introducing Chemistry as major subject with other subjects as minor subjects,

instead of continuing with existing three major subjects.
