Criterion 1 - Curricular Aspects

1.1 Curricular Planning and Implementation

1.1.1 The institution ensures effective curriculum delivery through a well planned and documented

process

Response:

The institution does ensure effective curriculum delivery through a well-planned and documented process.

The main Academic Calendar is given by the University, and according to the given Academic calendar,

the college prepares a detailed and department wise academic calendar for the year. At the beginning the

academic year, all departments meeting is held and every department prepares their respective academic

calendar. Another department-wise meeting, is held by the HODs of each department where the subjects

are allocated to each faulty and the preparation of lesson plan is started. Once the lesson plan is prepared

by the faculties, it is reviewed by the HOD and it is put in action. Lesson Plan/Plan of study for every

subject is prepared by the subject in charge as prescribed in the University regulations for that subject. Plan

of study will be thoroughly checked and by the HOD. Once the classes are started, lesson plan is updated

by the faculty in charge of subject. HOD reviews the lesson plan regularly. Meetings will held to discuss

about lesson plan and changes to be followed if required.

Once the classes are started, the faculties interaction with the students and the students‘ performance, gives

us a fair idea of the slow and fast learners. Individual attention is given to the students of each category and

action is taken accordingly. Remedial and extra classes are taken for the slow-learners which helps them

understand better and cope with rest of the class. As for the advanced learners, extra support is given with

respect to library and they are encouraged to attend other courses, and to seize the opportunities that they

7.1.6 Rain water harvesting structures and utilization in the campus

Response:

Our earth is covered with 75% of water and 25% of land but water scarcity is a global issue because the

large extent of water is not used for the domestic purpose, irrigation purpose and one of the solutions for

such problem is the rainwater harvesting.

In the areas of regular rainfall, the perfect alternative to overcome the water scarcity is the collection of

rainwater called as rainwater harvesting. Falling rain furnish the clean, natural water and this is not

astonishing because it is due to the distillation procedure. This harvesting does not include the water

running from land into the streams, lakes, and rivers etc. It can be done in private buildings, public

buildings and also in manufactured areas.

Objective: Progress is very much needed for the evolution & sustainability of mankind with a definite

ecological balance. Being developed is indeed a necessity to keep ourselves abreast with changing times

various activities, implementing novel practices and adhering to green cleaning policy.

of required resources in maintaining the clean environment are the major drawbacks that need to be

takencare.

possibly shaping the environment by forming a team with dedicated volunteers. The team so far has

organized events like swachh bharat abhiyan in and around campus for promoting environmental

awareness, A practical session on handwashing techniques & disease prevention for spreading importance

of self-hygiene, Adopting a plastic free zone policy and also plantation of trees.

Evidence of Success: The College now witnesses the efforts contributed by volunteers for its greener and

cleaner outlook compared to earlier days.

many awareness programs and also to conduct various theoretical & practical sessions by

environmentalists for obtaining guidance on better cleankeeping practices.
