also deal with the changing role of women in the modern society and their empowerment. The NSS Unit and the Womens Cell are engaged in uplifting the status of the students as women. The programmes conducted by the above units inspire the students to be socially useful to others by being involved in extension activities and empowerment programs. The College is a totally English medium institution and has a tradition of good teaching, strict discipline and a lot of extra-curricular activities. Here all efforts are made to make every student confident, smart, effective and to be successful in any venture taken by her and to be an asset to any organization that she may later join. This fact is very well known everywhere, A number of outside agencies, therefore, make a beeline to rope in our students into their organization, be it a recruiting agency or a coaching institute or a college offering further studies. For this purpose, these agencies want to make a presentation to the students putting forward their packages. Quite often they also teach various skills like quantitative ability, vocabulary building, reasoning, problem solving skills and communication and leadership training. Thus the students get an invaluable exposure and training on home grounds without spending a penny.Efforts are made to make students computer savvy and enhance their expertise in the job markets.

1.3.2 What are the efforts made by the institution to modify, enrich and organise the curriculum to explicitly reflect the experiences of the students and cater to needs of the dynamic employment markets.

The syllabus designed by Lucknow University is strictly adhered to by the College as the College can not modify the syllabus but the faculty tries to enrich and organise the curriculum with their own expertise and experience to help the students gain employable qualities that enable them to get jobs in this highly competitive world. Internet facility provided to the members of the staff helps them update their knowledge pertaining to their subject and effectively enrich it for the benefit of students. Assignments, workshops and project works are assigned to the students to sharpen their research acumen and develop the required skills. The Commerce Department takes the students to the Banks and Cooperatives and other industries for them to gain first hand knowledge about the workings of these organizations and also to gauge their ability, knowledge and limitations in this area.

To cater to the global market, communication skills and in- depth knowledge in the respective subjects is provided to the students to enable them achieve global standards. Alumnae Meets are conducted where alumnae of the College, holding enviable positions, interact with students and inspire them to chase their dreams in the employment field. Feedbacks from students and interaction with their parents help the College gather opinions to groom the students for employment market. To enrich the curriculum all the departments organise various programs like students seminars, workshops, lecture series etc. The English Department prepared electronic course material and was soon followed by the Education and the Hindi Departments. All these Departments have been holding e-classes since the beginning of the session 2013-14. Since online social networking has become an integral space for many students to live out their daily personal interactions, the Department of English has led the way by holding virtual classes by making quality learning material available to a large number of students on a social networking site Facebook. These virtual classes can reach out to physically challenged and those students who for some reason are unable to attend classes on a regular basis- a kind of meeting the students where they are. Otherwise also, the teachers are constantly in touch with their students on the social network.

Being innovative is about looking beyond what we currently do well, identifying the great ideas of tomorrow and putting them into practice. This has been the hallmark of the functioning of this College right through and innovative practices have been introduced to from time to time to improve the scholastic abilities in the students and also to tap the potential of the students for better running of the College and in return to provide them with experience, enhanced self-esteem along with a sense of accomplishment, leadership training, event management training and an overall personality development. Towards this purpose the College introduced certain new practices in the last 4-5 years and they are:

Student Extension Program This program began as an experiment in the year 2009-10 with a view to expose the students to the various avenues open to them in terms of further studies, career prospects, placements and also for them to realize their own potential. Towards this end several organizations like Indian School of Business, Hyderabad, UPTEC, Lucknow. The Pioneer, Lucknow and several other organizations including premier coaching institutes made presentations to the students.

Community Orientation N.S.S. units organise community welfare programmes like Blood Donation, Health Awareness camps and Literacy campaigns in rural areas. Such philanthropic services motivate others to take up the cause of social services. Such units not only teach those who indulge in these services but also those for whom such services are done.

1.3.6 How does the institution promote the participation of students and faculty in extension activities including participation in NSS, NCC, YRC and other National/International agencies?

The faculty and respective advisors motivate the students to promote their participation in extension activities by holding orientation programmes. In these programmes the need, necessity and the nature of work is discussed in great detail so as to familiarize them with the issues concerned. The next step is that of sensitization. This is achieved by inviting eminent personalities from the respective target field to interact with students often in a discussion workshop mode. Often these people also serve as role models thereby enhancing their motivational level. And the next step in promoting participation of students and faculty in extension activities is through partnership with various NGO’s. The College encourages these activities among the students by giving them awards in the field of social service and NSS. Extra weightage in marks is also provided by the University and the organization for having been a NSS volunteer. By virtue of appointments of teachers in rotation as programme officers and as advisors to the Social Service Club and Eco Restoration Club the faculty has to get involved in these activities. Various competitions (Nukkad Natak, best out of waste, paper bag making etc.) are held for which faculty members are appointed as judges thereby ensuring their involvement in the activities concerned. Social service club also worked enthusiastically throughout the year and took part in various social activities. Members of this club regularly visit old age homes (Prem Nivas at Sapru Marg Road, and Aastha at Mahanagar) and orphanages (Rajkiya Bal Grih, Prag Narain Road and Ahsaas, A. P. Sen Road). On 1st October 2013 they celebrated ‘Old Age Day’ at Aastha by presenting a Drama Act. They also donated clothes, stationery, sweets and other eatables at orphanage, Ehsaas to share Diwali spirit with the children on 1st Nov, 2013. During the past three years volunteers of Social Service Club contributed to organizations like National Association for Blind U.P., Tuberculosis Association & National Foundation of Communal Harmony. To sum up these are the ways through which our institution tries to promote institution neighborhood-community network and student engagement contributing to good citizenship, Service orientation and holistic development of students.

1.3.7 What are the various value-added courses/enrichment programmes offered to ensure holistic development of students?

For the holistic development of students the extension activities are carried out through various clubs. The College has 9 clubs namely Debating Club, Music Club, Eco Restoration Club, Literary Club, Social Service Club, Sports Club, Dram Club, Fine Arts Club and Entertainment Club. Each Club consists of President, Secretary and Joint Secretary who are elected by the student body. These clubs together with NSS unit of the College provide student’s opportunity to inculcate good citizenship and service orientation leading to holistic development of students. through their active involvement in various socially relevant issues and activities. In the past three years NSS volunteers actively participated in 'Gomti Clean campaign and helped clean river Gomti through ‘Shram Daan’ at Kudiah Ghat and Pipraghat. They also organized a 'Blood Donation Camp' in the College campus in association with the department of Transfusion Medicine, King George Medical University for which the college was felicitated too by the Medical University. Donor cards were later donated to the cancer unit of KGMU. Besides it voter awareness campaign in association with Election Commission U.P. was carried out through Nukkad Nataks at Malls and other public places and poster exhibitions. Students took oath to vote and set up a stall at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan on 25th Jan which was inspected and appreciated by Honorable Governor of U.P. The forms for the voter ID Cards have also been filled up in the college. Volunteers also sensitized their peers on AIDS through posters and campus quiz. Through an outreach programme the residents of Pipraghat too were made aware of AIDS. The Red Ribbon Club under the aegis of NSS organized various activities and through audio visual aids volunteers disseminated information on precautions against and prevention of AIDS. They also participated in the rally organized by the Lucknow. University for spreading AIDS awareness. NSS volunteers also sensitized their fellow students about the ills of smoking and tobacco chewing and informed their peers about government policy and laws regarding smoking in public places. They elaborated upon the health hazards for smokers and effect of their smoking on people around them. They motivated their peers to educate their family, friends and neighbors and urged them to give up smoking.

NSS volunteers also undertook community service. They carried out a small survey of the target locality (Pipraghat), analyzed the data and chalked out a need based programme for the camp. A health and sanitation awareness campaign was undertaken. To promote personal hygiene women were encouraged to use sanitary napkins. The same were collected and donated to the women of the locality by the volunteers. The NSS unit also collected rations and wools and donated them to the needy. The NSS carried out a year long campaign on women empowerment (2012-13). The students were sensitized on the issue by eminent resource persons like Ms. Shalini Mathur founder director of SURAKSHA a renowned NGO working for women rights, Dr. Pratima Bhatia a social activist and Dr. Nishi Pandey Professor and Head Department of English Lucknow University. Dr. Pandey also conducted a workshop on ‘Non Arm Combat’ with the students. Thus armed with relevant knowledge and techniques of self defense the volunteers shared their newly acquired skills and information with women and young girls of Pipraghat. Legal awareness was also provided by advocate Mr. A. K. Dixit and officials from 'State Women Commission" who gave valuable information about R.T.I., domestic violence, FIR, dowry laws. Etc. NSS volunteers along with, Eco Restoration Club of the College apprised students on the issues pertaining to environmental degradation and conservation. They organized workshop in which Mr. Kapil Yadav taught the students how to use old Wedding Invitation cards’ and make best out of waste, thereby motivating them to recycle old material and contribute towards environmental protection. Under his guidance students made 1000 paper bags out of old calendars and newspapers which have been donated to the Zoo. Social service club also worked enthusiastically throughout the year and took part in various social activities. Members of this club regularly visit old age homes (Prem Nivas at Sapru Marg Road, and Aastha at Mahanagar) and orphanages (Rajkiya Bal Grih, Prag Narain Road and Ahsaas, A. P. Sen Road). On 1st October 2013 they celebrated ‘Old Age Day’ at Aastha by presenting a Drama Act. They also donated clothes, stationery, sweets and other eatables at orphanage, Ehsaas to share Diwali spirit with the children on 1st Nov, 2013. During the past three years volunteers of Social Service Club contributed to organizations like National Association for Blind U.P., Tuberculosis Association & National

Foundation of Communal Harmony. To sum up these are the ways through which our institution tries to promote institution neighborhood-community network and student engagement contributing to good citizenship, Service orientation and holistic development of students.

Central Evaluation by Lucknow University is followed by examiners appointed from the College. The implementation of RTI has enabled students to see their evaluated answer book on payment of fixed charges.

Reforms Initiated by the Institution on its own :

Home Exams are conducted on University pattern. The dura-tion of Examination is three hours. Printed question papers are given to the students. After evaluation answer copies are returned to students and marks are recorded on the Evaluation sheet. The Concept of Class Test, Assignment, Project etc. are also some of other initiative taken by College in order to measure the output of teaching learning process. The College has made it compulsory for all students to appear in the university exams in their uniform mandatory (only for special occasion) so the impersonisation and other means of cheating in the exams can be controlled better. Students are required to bring a transparent bag/box for their stationery. This makes checking very thorough. The College also has a system of internal flying squad to keep a check on cheating by making several rounds during the du-ration of examination.

2.5.3 How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation reforms of the university and those initiated by the institution on its own?

Since the institution being affiliated to Lucknow University all the norms of the University automatically imply to the College. Home examination being conducted on autonomous system has introduced certain practices for example internal evalua-tion is done on three criteria written exams, ppt/paper presen-tation, and assignment. In the similar vein the internal evalua-tion of students in university practical exams is done on the basis of quality, regularity, submission of assignments in lab work, their performance in day to day class. Class assignment, checking of Practical Records, Project is also taken care of by the concerned departments.

2.5.4 Provide details on the formative and summative assessment approaches adapted to measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have positively impacted the system.

Formative assessment methods Group Discussion Frequent Revision (Mid Unit) Class Interaction Question Answer (Subjective / Objective) Quiz

Summative Assessment: Home Exams Internal Evaluation of Practical Records Projects/Research papers Class tests/periodic tests

All these methods have positively impacted the system since the students

Understand the subject well Get better results Develop confidence and independent personalityGain solid basis in knowledge which may ensure further stud-ies. Develop Professionalism with respect to changing times

Student performance and Learning Outcomes

2.5.8 Does the College have clearly stated learning outcomes? If 'yes' give details on how the students and staff are made aware of these?

Learning Outcomes The College clearly states its learning outcomes in its pro-spectus on its website. They are academic and extra academic excellence, value based education, discipline, overall person-ality development, integrity, presence and impact, rapport with staff and students are greatly emphasized.

Students are made aware of these learning outcomes in the following ways :

At the beginning of the session Orientation Programme by the Dean of Studies They are reemphasised at the Investiture Cremony of the newly inducted council During the election process which includes eligibility criteria for nomination and election During extra curricular activities held in the year round Col-lege Calendar During Award Ceremony these criteria are being spelt out by the Dean of students At the end of academic session the council members are graded on their performances as office bearers by the advi-sors, Dean of students and the Principal and awards given. The awards are thoroughly debated and discussed objectively by (on the basis of performance, attendance, work output both academically and extra academically) the staff members for several days before finalising the list The achievement level of students in academic vs. co-curricular almost ranges from 5-9 in a rating scale of 10

2.5.9 Enumerate on how the institution monitors and communi-cates the progress and performance of students through the duration of the course/programme?

2.5.10 How are the teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the institution structured to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcomes?

Teaching - Learning strategies The students are primarily taught by giving lectures in the subject concerned. The lectures are interactive in nature. They get a lot of opportunity to question the teacher on the subject matter. The teacher may also question them. At the end the students are also given or referred to several books. At the end of each topic the teacher holds group discussion and for better assessment of the comprehension level and grasp of the subject matter by the students and their ability to express them. Most of the faculty members make use of PPT to present their matter to the students. Several topics are presented through flow chart which makes the learning process easier. Numerical solving method is adopted in explaining several statistical and theoretical problems. It encourages students in presenting the data in a quantified manner. After presentation of the matter by the teacher, often the stu-dents are asked to explain it to the class mates through peer teaching. To make the subject matter more interesting various depart-ments occasionally show related feature films/plays/ docu-mentaries and vedio clips. Use of search engines like you tube facilitate a comprehensive search for various topics per-taining to cause and related material. In the practical classrooms use of apparatus and conduction of experiments, lab measurements, sample etc. is widely demonstrated and then students are asked to conduct their project/practical work. Very often lecturers also teach through diagrams, maps and sketches.

Chart and models are widely used in explaining the subject matter. The students are also asked to make chart and model as per requirement.

Assessment Strategies: Class assessment Class tests Home Exams Class Assignments Project etc/ research papers/PPT/practical files.

All the above strategies make the learning of students more thor-ough and in turn help in (facilitate) achieving the learning out-comes more effectively.

2.5.11 What are the measures/initiatives taken up by the institution to enhance the social and economic relevance (student place-ments, entrepreneurship, innovation and research aptitude developed among students etc.) of the courses offered?

2.5.12 How does the institution collect and analyze data on student performance and learning outcomes and use it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning?

Collection and Analysis of Data The College has been collecting data on its pass out and their placement for the last few years. This data clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of the teach-ing learning process adopted by the College. Yearly University results are analyzed by the faculty and cor-rective measures are introduced whereever needed (Tutori-als/remedial) The College uses it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning by applying more effective learning strategies, more counseling, by implementing the College calendar, more ob-jectively and categorically etc. which certainly helps in bring-ing effective changes.

NONE

3.1.4 What are the efforts made by the institution in developing scientific temper and research culture and aptitude among students?

In our country where a large section of the society still continues to be superstitious inculcating scientific temper among students is of great importance. This demands inculcation of values like spirit of inquiry, courage to

question, objectivity, honesty which are precursors to the development of various traits characterizing scientific temper. The spirit of inquiry so natural in most children gets stifled by teaching centered pedagogies which predominantly are didactic hence in our institute efforts has been made to make education process joyful with the teachers acting as facilitators of learning as friends and guides. Group discussions, power point presentations, e-learning, student seminars and presentations are some of the best practices adopted so that the student’s enthusiasm doesn't diminish. Students are motivated to asks questions freely so as to strengthen their inquisitiveness. In practical subjects like Education, Psychology, Geography, Anthropology an effective method of fostering scientific temper is through experiments where students are involved directly in activities based on data collection & predicting new results from the hypothesis similar to how scientists operate in discovering new knowledge. This is usually referred to as the discovery approach to teaching. The above subjects also teach the students the experimental method which helps in developing an objective and scientific attitude in the students. In the Geography department students prepare field reports based on field study related to physical and human geography. To maintain objectively they visit the area, identify the landforms, land use pattern, draw maps of the selected area and submit the final reports. Student tours to Remote Sensing Center (RSAC), workshop on 'Disaster Management' (Nov 13, 2013), student’s participation in Geo-Fest in National PG College and Lucknow University, lecture on "Applications of remote sensing in Flood hazard management (3rd Sep, 2012) and 'Environmental Education, are some of the other measures to develop scientific temper among students. Besides this, College provides ample opportunities for students to exhibit their talent and skills for further enhancement through various clubs which organize various co-curricular activities like debate, turn coats, quizes, essay writing etc. where rational and critical thinking are needed and for this current social, economic, political & religious issued are taken up. A series of lectures are organized on a regular basis on various topics which are beyond the syllabi to broaden the horizon of knowledge such as "cyber Crime" "Food Security Bill", Women Empowerment" etc on a regular basis.

Literature itself is used as a tool to dispel superstitious beliefs and practices and encourages objective and clear thinking.

The College has 9 clubs namely Debating Club, Music Club, Eco Restoration Club, Literary Club, Social Service Club, Sports Club, Dram Club, Fine Arts Club and Entertainment Club. Each Club consists of President, Secretary and Joint Secretary who are elected by the student body. These clubs together with NSS unit of the college provide student’s opportunity to inculcate good citizenship and service orientation leading to holistic development of students. through their active involvement in various socially relevant issues and activities.

In the past three years NSS volunteers actively participated in 'Gomti Clean campaign and helped clean river Gomti through ‘Shram Daan’ at Kudiah Ghat and Pipraghat. They also organized a 'Blood Donation Camp' in the college campus in association with the department of Transfusion Medicine, King George Medical University for which college was felicitated too by the Medical University. Donor cards were later donated to the cancer unit of KGMU. Besides it voter awareness campaign in association with Election Commission U.P. was carried out through Nukkad Nataks at Malls and other public places and poster exhibitions. Students took oath to vote and set up a stall at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan on 25th Jan which was inspected and appreciated by Honorable Governor of U.P. The forms for the voter ID Cards have also been filled up in the college. Volunteers also sensitized their peers on AIDS through posters and campus quiz. Through an outreach programme the residents of Pipraghat too were made aware of AIDS. The Red Ribbon Club under the aegis of NSS organized various activities and through audio visual aids volunteers disseminated information on precautions against and prevention of AIDS. They also participated in the rally organized by the Lucknow. University for spreading AIDS awareness. NSS volunteers also sensitized their fellow students about the ills of smoking and tobacco chewing and informed their peers about government policy and laws regarding smoking in public places. They elaborated upon the health hazards for smokers and effect of their smoking on people around them. They motivated their peers to educate their family, friends and neighbors and urged them to give up smoking.

NSS volunteers also undertook community service. They carried out a small survey of the target locality (Pipraghat), analyzed the data and chalked out a need based programme for the camp. A health and sanitation awareness campaign was undertaken. To promote personal hygiene women were encouraged to use sanitary napkins. The same were collected and donated to the women of the locality by the volunteers. They also collected rations and wools and donated them to the needy.

The NSS carried out a year long campaign on women empowerment (2012-13). The students were sensitized on the issue by eminent resource persons like Ms. Shalini Mathur founder director of SURAKSHA a renowned NGO working for women rights, Dr. Pratima Bhatia a social activist and Dr. Nishi Pandey Professor and Head Department of English Lucknow University. Dr. Pandey also conducted a workshop on ‘Non Arm Combat’ with

the students. Thus armed with relevant knowledge and techniques of self defense the volunteers shared their newly acquired skills and information with women and young girls of Pipraghat. Legal awareness was also provided by advocate Mr. A. K. Dixit and officials from 'State Women Commission" who gave valuable information about R.T.I., domestic violence, FIR, dowry laws. Etc.

NSS volunteers along with, Eco Restoration Club of the College apprised students on the issues pertaining to environmental degradation and conservation. They organized workshop in which Mr. Kapil Yadav taught the students how to use old Wedding Invitation cards’ and make best out of waste, thereby motivating them to recycle old material and contribute towards environmental protection. Under his guidance students made 1000 paper bags out of old calendars and newspapers which have been donated to the Zoo.

Social service club also worked enthusiastically throughout the year and took part in various social activities. Members of this club regularly visit old age homes (Prem Nivas at Sapru Marg Road, and Aastha at Mahanagar) and orphanages (Rajkiya Bal Grih, Prag Narain Road and Ahsaas, A. P. Sen Road). On 1st October 2013 they celebrated ‘Old Age Day’ at Aastha by presenting a Drama Act. They also donated cloths, stationary, sweets and other eatables at orphanage, Ehsaas to share Diwali spirit with the children on 1st

Nov, 2013. During the past three years volunteers of Social Service Club contributed to organizations like National Association for Blind U.P., Tuberculosis Association & National Foundation of Communal Harmony. To sum up these are the ways through which our institution tries to promote institution neighborhood-community network and student engagement contributing to good citizenship, Service orientation and holistic development of students.

3.6.3 What is the Institutional mechanism to track student’s involvement in various social movements / activities which promote citizenship roles?

The institutional mechanism to track student involvement in various social movements/activities which promote citizenship roles is multipronged. The college motivates students to voluntarily participate in all such activities by conducting orientation programmes where the concerned advisor of the club makes the students aware of the needs and purpose of such activities. Further when students go out on field trips like visit to an orphanage or visits to an underprivileged village they are accompanied by the faculty member, office staff & peon to guide and to monitor them. Before that permission letters are sought from parents. Attendance

is taken before and after the event and a report is submitted to the advisor on the concerned activity. Each club maintains the yearly calendar and record of activities along with the list of participants and helpers. Another way to keep track is to take a feed back from the visited place which is frequently done by the relevant club.

3.6.4 How does the institution solicits stakeholder perception on the overall performance and quality of the institution?

The institution solicits stakeholder’s perception on the overall performance and quality of the institution by seeking participation of parents/ guardians in all its activities through invites for programmes like college sports day, college annual day etc. They are kept updated about their ward’s performance, attendance, punctuality and regularity through parent teacher meetings,. At the end of the academic session the students give their feedback through a feedback form whereby they assess their teacher’s performance subject wise. Teachers submit their self assessment from at the end of every academic year. Feed back is also collected from the Management of the College and the office staff. Class IV employees are also encouraged to gave their views every year. An evaluation seminar is held for several days to access and deal with the problems arisen in the last session and to work out the fresh schedule of teaching, extra curricular activities, admission process etc for the new session.

3.6.5 How does the institution plan and organize its extension and outreach programmes? Providing the budgetary details for last four years, list the major extension outreach programmes and their impact on the overall development of students.

Three clubs (Social Service Club, NSS and Eco Restoration Club) have been clearly designated for the purpose of outreach progammes. The Institution has the mechanism of elected student council comprising of college president,, vice president and president, secretary and joint secretary for each club. The affairs of each club are managed/supervised by a faculty member who is also the advisor of the concerned club. The advisor along with the elected student office bearers of the club plan and organize its extension and out reach programme. A calendar of activity is prepared at the beginning of academic session for the whole year and budgetary allocation is formally sought from the college management to carry out the above activities. NSS being monitored by the Government already has an allocated budget and basic programmes outlined by the University.

3.6.6 How does the institution promote the participation of students and faculty in extension activities including participation in NSS, NCC, YRC and other National/International agencies?

The faculty and respective advisors motivate the students to promote their participation in extension activities by holding orientation programmes. In these programmes the need, necessity and the nature of work is discussed in great detail so as to familiarize them with the issues concerned. The next step is that of sensitization. This is achieved by inviting eminent personalities from the respective target field to interact with students often in a discussion workshop mode. Often these people also serve as role models thereby enhancing their motivational level. And the next step in promoting participation of students and faculty in extension activities is through partnership with various NGO’s. The College encourages these activities among the students by giving them awards in the field of social service and NSS. Extra weightage in marks is also provided by the University and the organization for having been a NSS volunteer. By virtue of appointments of teachers in rotation as programme officers and as advisors to the Social Service Club and Eco Restoration Club the faculty has to get involved in these activities. Various competitions (Nukkad Natak, best out of waste, paper bag making etc.) are held for which faculty members are appointed as judges thereby ensuring their involvement in the activities concerned.

3.6.7 Give details on social surveys, research or extension work (if any) undertaken by the College to ensure social justice and empower students from under privileged and vulnerable sections of society?

Every year NSS Volunteers empower the students from under privileged and vulnerable sections of society in the adopted villages of Pipraghat and Cabinetganj, through Nukkad Nataks, Poster and Slogan Writing Campaigns. Information is also disseminated through experts on topics like legal rights, self defense, right to education, gender issues, health and hygiene etc. Skill development programs like envelope and paper bag making & paper jewellery are conducted for the under privileged children in the adopted villages.

3.6.8 Reflecting on objectives and expected outcomes of the extension activities organized by the institution, comment on how they complement students’ academic experience and specify the values and skills inculcated.

In view of the objectives and outcomes of extension activities organized by the institution through its NSS unit and Social Service Club and Eco-Restoration Club our students are now more sensitized on various social issues and are socially responsible, aware and alert citizens. Especially NSS inculcated the sprit of voluntary work among students through sustained community interaction. It brought our students closer to the society by bridging the gap between campus and the community. NSS unit of the college has always been active and a number of commendable services have been performed for the society at large like blood donation, cancer & AIDS awareness, literacy campaign, cleanliness drive, voter awareness etc. which developed in them a sense of social and civic responsibility. By visiting Pipraghat and Cabinetganj localities nearby our College they also learnt how to indentify the problems of the community and how to solve them. For instance while promoting personal hygiene among women of Pipraghat they identified their problem of non availability of sanitary napkins and they collected the same and distributed them. Through involvement in clean Gomti Campaign, and workshop on recycling of old material they learnt about environment conservation and sustainable development.

To develop the sensitivity and awareness towards environment and its protection among students the Eco Restoration club initiated campaigns for clean and green environment by organizing poster making competition, ban on poly bags sending paper bags to zoo, pollution check campaign etc. Visit to orphanage and old age homes by the members of Social Service Club sensitized them about the needs of the senior citizens living in old age homes away from their families. Realizing the need for company they spent time on the festival of Deepawali, entertained them with skit and other variety programmes. They also regularly visit orphanages. This inculcated in them the values and virtues of sharing and compassion.

These activities not only involve the students in community life. They also provide the students with a broader perspective and wider application of their academic subjects in their discourses, assignments, class work etc. It also gives them a better understanding and comprehension of the subject matter as they seek applicability in day today life. It broadens their thinking, analytical ability and critical evaluation.

3.6.9 How does the institution ensure the involvement of the community in its reach out activities and contribute to the community development? Detail on the initiatives of the institution that encourage community participation in the activities?

None

3.6.10 Give details on the constructive relationships forged (if any) with other institutions of the locality for working on various outreach and extension activities.

5.10.1 Does the institution have a Student Grievance Redressal Cell? If yes, list (if any) the grievances reported and redressed during the last four years.

The College also runs a Grievance and Redressal Cell which consists of five members namely the Principal, Dean of studies and Dean of students and Co-deans. The Cell operates on any grievance received from the students. A provision for receiving grievances from the students and staff is also made on the College website. The problems here are received and redressed on face to face basis thereby maintaining the confidentiality of students by the staff members. This system is also less intimidating for the person concerned.

5.11.1 What are the institutional provisions for resolving issues pertaining to sexual harassment ?

Women’s Cell

As per UGC directives College has a Women’s Cell which deals with problems of gender issues, sexual harassment and physical violence if any.

Strict vigil and monitoring is maintained by the members to ensure there is no sexual harassment of students by the opposite gender.

5.12.1 Is there an anti-ragging committee? How many instances (if any) have been reported during, the last four years and what action has been taken on these?

It has been the College tradition of zero tolerance towards any kind of ragging / harassment / ill treatment of the fresher’s. Even then the College has formed an anti ragging Committee which consists of dean of students and dean of studies. There have been no cases reported on ragging.

5.13.1 Enumerate the Welfare schemes made available to students by the institution.

Book Bank, Tuition fee waivers for staff employee and also for students with financial constraints. The College has a system of taking care of those students who are economically marginalized by providing for waiver under full freeship and half free ship schemes.

The library also has a scheme of book bank where relevant and expensive text books / reference books are loaned to the needy students for the academic session.

5.3.3 How does the college seek and use data and feedback from its graduates and employers, to improve the performance and quality of the institutional provisions?

Regular feedback is taken from the passing out students every year in all the subjects the data collected is then analyzed by the concerned department and few common points action / redressal / correction / is taken up by the concerned people. Feedback is also taken from ex-students who visit the College from time to time. Another mechanism for feedback is through regular meeting with parents / guardian in Parent Teacher Meetings as well as Principal’s informal meetings with parents. Accordingly the problems and difficulties are resolved. Alumnae proved to be a rich source of feedback performance since they become more open when they are out of the College. They give feed back to the faculty members and to the Principal in informal discussions. The Principal also takes informal feedback pertaining to the teaching and improvement in facilities and infrastructure.

5.3.4 How does the College involve and encourage students to publish materials like catalogues, wall magazines, college magazine, and other material? List the publications/ materials brought out by the students during the previous four academic sessions.

The Principal of the College, goes without saying, has to play a very critical role in the running of the College efficiently. The College has a Principal with dynamic leadership qualities, who has also been an active sportsperson and office-bearer during her student days. As equal emphasis is laid on academic and extra-curricular activities. The Principal also appoints a Dean of Students and a Dean of Studies, who coordinate and take care of the extra- curricular and academic activities of the students, respectively. The Dean of Students and the Dean of Studies also provide a liaison between the Principal, the staff and the students.Regular meetings are also held between the Principal, the Teachers and the Deans so that the College can be run smoothly and any day-to-day impediments can be removed. The Principal takes an active part by guiding the faculty towards the aims and objectives of the College and also helps in solving their various problems.

Duties of the Principal Creating a conductive educational environment. Academic planning for the year. Conducting regular staff meetings and of various committees, and monitoring the degree of implementation of plans. Introducing innovative educational practices in the Institution.Being a member of the interview panel to select candidates with appropriate skills, both for teaching and non-teaching posts.Developing an appropriate mechanism for monitoring and evaluating outcome. Developing skills in conflict resolutions, problem-solving, decision-making, communication and leadership skills. The College has a high reputation for its extra-curricular activities and endeavours in making its students excel not only in academics, but also in life for which developing leadership is an integral part. To meet this goal, the College has evolved a system by which all the students participate in one or the other extra–curricular activity. For this purpose, there are nine clubs and three units of the National Service Scheme (NSS) that are responsible for the extra-curricular activities round the year. (Refer 3.6.1) It is the students who take the initiative to organise all the events at the College level, as well as, at the Inter-collegiate level. The office bearers of these clubs choose their own teams to assist them in organising the events. Each club has its own Advisor, a President, a Secretary and a Joint-Secretary. These officer bearers work in total co-operation and ensure that all the programmes are conducted efficiently and managed properly throughout the year. A Lucknow-based NGO, Medha, has been conducting an employability develoment plan for the last two years to inculcate confidence, high self-esteem and willingness to take an initiative among the students. The College also runs a Counseling Cell where some members of the teaching staff and the Student’s Council provide help, advice and counsel the needy students, accordingly. They also help in solving various dilemmas of the students related to academics and personal field. The Counseling Cell helps the students recognise their potential.

6.1.4 What are the procedures adopted by the institution to monitor and evaluate policies and plans for the institution for effective implementation and improvement from time to time?

The Managing Committee, along with the teaching and the non-teaching staff, holds regular meetings from time to time all through the year. It addresses changes in policies and plans to adopt the most effective ideas for the growth of the College and those associated with it. Various issues and suggestions are raised in these meetings and valuable suggestions are taken up for resolutions. The Managing Committee, the Principal and the Staff (teaching and non-teaching) are all responsible for monitoring and evaluating the applied policies and plans in the College. If a teacher wants to bring about a change in rules or suggest a new policy for the College, she will first discuss it with the College Principal, who will take up the matter further with the Managing Committee. The final call for any decision lies with the Managing Committee, which is assisted by The Principal and the faculty representatives. In case a student wants to make any suggestion, she first needs to approach the Dean of Students/ Dean of Studies, who would take the matter up with the Principal. Many a times, valuable suggestions also come from the Student Council.The Principal holds Evaluation Seminar towards the end of each academic session and thus arrives at a concrete plan for any changes and evaluation, if any, in the next session.

6.1.5 Give details of the Academic leadership provided to the faculty by the top Management.

The faculty is at the liberty to deal with the syllabus in its own way and has the freedom to adopt any teaching method, which it may deem fit. The reading list too is at the will of the teacher and need not be confined to the recommended books. The teacher also has the freedom to discuss related work of fiction, feature films and video clippings in the class. All these practices point to the autonomy of the teachers in dealing with the prescribed syllabus and thus, ensuring a free and dynamic academic environment. This autonomous environment leads to the inculcation of the academic leadership in the faculty members.

The Management also provides generous help and wide support to the teaching faculty in conduction of various activities from time to time. The Management also actively encourages the participation of the Staff members in various events at the state, national and international levels. The faculty enjoys complete freedom to invite resource persons from various fields, with full financial help from the Management. The inspiring presence of the Managing Committee members helps motivate the staff and the students.

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.

Being innovative is about looking beyond what we currently do well, identifying the great ideas of tomorrow and putting them into practice. This has been the hallmark of the functioning of this College right through and innovative practices have been introduced to from time to time to improve the scholastic abilities in the students and also to tap

the potential of the students for better running of the College and in return to provide them with experience, enhanced self-esteem along with a sense of accomplishment, leadership training, event management training and an overall personality development. Towards this purpose the College introduced certain new practices in the last 4-5 years and they are:

Student Extension Program

This program began as an experiment in the year 2009-10 with a view to expose the students to the various avenues open to them in terms of further studies, career prospects, placements and also for them to realize their own potential. Towards this end several organizations like Indian School of Business, Hyderabad, UPTEC, Lucknow. The Pioneer, Lucknow and several other organizations including premier coaching institutes made presentations to the students.

As the program took shape over the years, certain other important issues came to the forefront. Student health programs and camps too were incorporated and informative lectures pertaining to eye care in collaboration with Novartis Pharmaceuticals and Prakash Netralaya were conducted in Nov 2010-2011. Several camps were held for Hepatitis B immunization in Nov 2011. A Cancer awareness lecture was held in collaboration with Cipla and Sahara Hospital on Sept. In collaboration with Dr. Reddy a lecture on skin care. Acne was held in Nov. 2011-12.

In the last few years the un employability of today’s graduates has been bemoaned by the corporate world and other employers. Too many young people fail to see the relevance of their studies to future work and life roles. Many do not know how to identify suitable employers who may need their unique talents nor how best to select a suitable institution or a program of study that can enhance their learning and personal envelopment. In essence, far too many young people are marginalized, un employed or underemployed. Conversely, employers ament that school, college and higher education systems are not delivering students with the employability and self-management skills, character and attitude they need. This Cell took cognizance of this fact and organized an awareness program for its student to learn about their own employability and potential. A Seminar in Lucknow in collaboration with Dr Rajan Johari of Leverage in Sept 2010 was held in the College. A group of final year students got themselves assessed by Aspiring Minds in 2011-12 which provided them with a detailed analysis of their personality styles and an insight into their behavioural aspects along with other skills. To continue with the endeavor of developing employability quotient in its students, the College in collaboration with Medha Learning Foundation, started an employability development program in Oct, 2012. This program aimed at providing the students employability training, leadership development and career services. Another batch of 16 students have undergone the training this year too.

Discipline Squad

The College has a system of Students’ Council which is responsible for managing various curricular, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. Beside this body the Principal’s office also introduced a system of a Discipline Squad where certain students are assigned some

responsibilities to check littering, loitering, noise, wastage of water or electricity to keep the campus clean and green. These students also manage with the help of the parking attendant the proper parking of the vehicles. Because of this system a value is inculcated among the students that they are responsible for their own discipline.

Revenue Generation

Avadh Girls’ Degree College is a totally English medium institution and has a tradition of good teaching, strict discipline and a lot of extra-curricular activities. Here all efforts are made to make every student confident, smart, effective and to be successful in any venture taken by her and to be an asset to any organization that she may later join. This fact is very well known everywhere, A number of outside agencies, therefore, make a beeline to rope in our students into their organization, be it a recruiting agency or a coaching institute or a college offering further studies. For this purpose, these agencies want to make a presentation to the students putting forward their packages. Quite often they also teach various skills like quantitative ability, vocabulary building, reasoning, problem solving skills and communication and leadership training. Thus the students get an invaluable exposure and training on home grounds without having to spend a penny.

Since several agencies approach the College for presentation to the students, the College checks their credentials first and when satisfied allows them. It becomes very difficult for the College to separate the serious from the non-serious player so to separate the chaff from the grain a nominal amount (Rs 8000/ for an hour) is charged from these agencies. Only very reputed organizations with immaculate credentials are allowed in the College.

This way it’s a win-win situation for everyone- the student gets valuable information and training, the agency gets its presentation and the College earns some revenue.

It may be pointed out here that no charges are taken for academic, health or course related presentations.

Internal Resource Generation

The English Department prepared electronic course material and was soon followed by the Education and the Hindi Departments. All these Departments have been holding e-classes since the beginning of the session 2013-14.

Since online social networking has become an integral space for many students to live out their daily personal interactions, the Department of English has led the way by holding virtual classes by making quality learning material available to a large number of students on a social networking site Facebook. These virtual classes can reach out to physically challenged and those students who for some reason are unable to attend classes on a regular basis- a kind of meeting the students where they are Otherwise also, the teachers are. constantly in touch with their students on the social network.

In transaction of the prescribed syllabus, the English Department has taken an innovative step by taking an interdisciplinary approach to teaching of literature for a better and holistic comprehension of the subject by the students (under the program. “Beyond Boundaries” an Inter disciplinary Approach to Literature). This practice has been followed by the Departments of Education and Hindi.

The Department of English has also started a special lecture series entitled “Literature and Life-Bridging the Gap” so as to give the students an insight into the application and working of literary theory in day to day life.

To meet the same purpose the English Department has initiated another project ‘Celebrating the Men of Letters’, in the form of Young Researchers’ Symposium, wherein the students are required to do write-ups and PPTs on the birthday of an author prescribed in the syllabus thereby creating an opportunity of an interface with these men of letters.

The Geography Department too asks its students to prepare PPTs on various topics prescribed in the syllabus so to encourage and develop a research aptitude.

The Department of Psychology has introduced a practice of administering all psychological tests prescribed in the BA IIIrd year syllabus for practicals on the same subject so that a connection may be established between one test and the other and a comprehensive picture may emerge of the subject for the case-study, the last practical work. This way the students are able to comprehend the content, administration procedure and the analyses of the data better and also find ready application.

Since the beginning of this year a new procedure for the conduction of prescribed experiments has been adopted for BA I st year students. The experiments are first introduced by the teacher and then the students practice the conduction of the experiments (under the supervision of a teacher) on one- another among themselves-half the class becomes the subjects and the other half the experimenters. Thus, everyone becomes familiar with the proper conduction of the experiments and also learns to handle the apparatus correctly. Finally, the students conduct these experiments on new subjects for their assignments.

7.3. BEST PRACTICE (1)

7.3.1. Elaborate on any two best practices in the given format at page no.98, 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

Career Guidance and Students’ Extension Activities Program.

2. Goal (100 words)

Pursuit of excellence in education, overall personality development and inculcation of ethical values along with training and placements of the students is a part of the College vision. The focus is on enhancing the academic, personal and professional development of learners to meet the challenging needs of employers, the society and the self. The main objectives are to develop the organization, presentation, leadership and managerial skills so that the students are well equipped to find a place for themselves in the outside world even only after

graduation. Careers guidance develops the skills, attitudes and motivation that enable Students to progress to education, training and employment. All round development of the students is aimed for by the College curriculum.

3. The Context (150words)

For the last several years there has been a hue and cry regarding the employability quotient of today’s graduates. By employability it is meant ‘a set of achievements, skills, understandings and personal attributes’ that make graduates more likely to gain employment and be successful in their chosen occupation. It is not enough to leave college knowing the subject matter. Students need and want jobs at the end of their degrees or at least the option of having a job. If the students are going to be successful in the world of work, colleges need to get a grip on the employability agenda to equip students with the tools they need to succeed. In the frame of this very context the College attempts to expose its students to the various avenues open to them in terms of further studies, career prospects, placements and also for them to realize their own potential since employability is not just about getting a job.

4. The Practice (400 words)

At AGDC, the major objective has been to turn out students who would be an asset to any world they may go to. Training and placement along with personality development and academic pursuit has been a part of the College agenda in the recent past. The Students’ Extension Activity and Placement Cell organizes career guidance seminars, symposia and workshops by having through agreement or invitation, resource persons from the industry-IT, hospitality, aviation, fashion designing and technology, animation, management etc for the career guidance and counseling of students throughout the year. From time to time it also arranges campus interviews.

Linking transferable skills gained whilst doing a degree course to the actual process of getting a graduate job is increasingly important in making sure that everyone has an equal access to that training and information. Hence these activities are conducted during the College hours ensuring the participation of most of the students.

In the last few years there has been a lot of bemoaning of the lack of employability in the Indian graduates. Therefore the Cell initiated an awareness program for the students to learn about their own employability and potential. A seminar in collaboration with, Dr Rajan Johri of Leverage Lucknow was held in the College in Sep. 2010. where he informed the students about the skills required for employability and availability of training for these skills.

A group of students got themselves assessed by Aspiring Minds, an organization for developing vocational skills in 2010 which provided them with a detailed analysis of their personality styles and an insight into their behavioral aspects. They were also assessed for their English, Quantitative Ability, Analytical Skills and Particular Domain Skills. The purpose was to gauge their employability for various industrial sectors and job profiles.

An Employability Development Program was organized in the year 2012 and 2013 in collaboration with The Medha Learning Foundation, which provided the students with employability training, leadership development and career services in a five month program consisting of 200 hours of classroom training and 100 hours of homework assignments and facilitated one month internship for these students across various industries.

In the year 2013 too, this program was launched with a few changes. It was seen that with their busy schedule of coaching’s, college classes, studies and social engagements, the students found it hard to commit themselves to so many months. Therefore the program was compacted into a two month duration with a slight reduction in the number of hours.

Student health programs and camps too were organized by the Cell. Informative lectures pertaining to eye care in collaboration with Armetis Pharmaceuticals and Prakash Netralaya were conducted in 2011-12. Several camps were held for Hepatitis B immunization in

2010-11. A Cancer awareness lecture was held in collaboration with Cipla and Sahara Hospital in 2012-13.

The Cell also organizes personality development and self-grooming lectures thus ensuring the development of the overall personality among the students.

The Evidence of Success (200 words)

In order for young people to be genuinely “ready” for both further studies and career they need to have attended to their academic achievement, their aspirations and plans for the future, their ability to make transitions and their ability to direct their own careers. Career Guidance and Counseling Cell offers a body of practice that has been shown to have a positive impact on young people’s readiness for higher studies and career not only in academic journals but also in the academic and work records of the College alumnae. Most of the ex-students of this College have either gone up for higher, prestigious or professional studies or have secured good, well-paying and challenging jobs.

The success of this program is evident by the fact that not only a great number of outside organizations approach us but also by the fact that a huge number of these organizations are names to reckon with. Representatives from ISB, Hyderabad, IBS, Lucknow and Hyderabad, IBM, Converges, GenPact, HCL, AISEC, Teach for India, and several other such reputed organizations besides several others, approach our students either for presentation or recruitment.

A feed-back survey was conducted on the participants of Medha Employability Development Program 2012. The results indicated an unanimous support for the program. All the participants found the program extremely useful in enhancing their self-awareness, worth and exposure level. A follow-up of the program showed that all the final year participants got placed in reputed organizations or got admitted to prestigious courses.

Problems Encountered and Resources Required (150 words)

How can we best integrate and balance different ways of teaching and learning that promote both effective learning and employability for students is the foremost problem right now. The classroom teaching is basically limited to the coverage of the prescribed syllabi. It is left to the individual teachers to review and develop their own understanding

of employability. Extra arrangements have to be made for career guidance and counseling.

The biggest issue that students face is confidence. They do not seem to realize and understand that the skills that they have learnt in classroom can be adapted to give them a better competitive edge.

Another big problem lies with the structure of the BA syllabus-it is so structured that students are left learning it by rote and not find applications for it in their day to day life. Since the syllabi are not employment oriented the students soon lose interest and motivation in attending their classes. This results in some absenteeism in the students .

It is clear that alongside career education and guidance within the College itself, there is a need for making career guidance available in a specialist form from an agency specializing in the field.

Extracurricular Clubs and the Staff Advisors:

2. Goal :

The College endeavors to have its students excel not only in academics but also in life for which personality development is an important part.

3. The Context

In today’s world a good / excellent academic record is not enough. The competition in every field is fierce and to get ahead, a student has to show more than her academic brilliance. Almost all admissions and all jobs require not only a written examination but also an interview. To face the interview and to get selected depends on the candidates ability to put forward her ideas to be able to express herself and show a level of confidence in her abilities. She must also demonstrate some leadership qualities as well as creativity. This is important not only in seeking jobs but also in living life and facing problems, running a house or an organization.

4. The Practice

To meet this goal the College had evolved a system by which all students participate in one or the other extra curricular activity. For this

purpose there are 10 clubs which organize extra curricular activities throughout the year in various fields. To ensure participation of all the students, membership is made compulsory for all the 3 clubs viz. Sports, Social Service and Entertainment Clubs. Besides these three clubs, it is compulsory for all students to opt for the membership of at least one other club. Each student is therefore a member of four clubs thereby giving every student ample opportunity to display and develop her talent. These Clubs are responsible for the running of all the extra curricular activities. It's the students who initiate and organize events at the College level as well as at the Inter collegiate levels. The office bearers of these club are elected who then choose their own team, Each Club has a President, a Secretary and a Joint Secretary. Each Club has its own staff Advisor.

TABLE

The College has a system of allocating each club a member of the teaching faculty by rotation to supervise, guide and help in running its activities. This system ensures that students not only maintain a certain standard of presentation but also social relevance and appropriateness and political correctness of the program is observed. Some members of the faculty are also very well versed in other fields besides their educational discipline and thus students get the best guidance available at their door steps.

Dr. Rekha Gupta of Hindi department has a degree in Fine Arts and a poet of repute. Dr. Aparna Shukla of Education Department has a diploma in Computer Education.

Ms R. Watal was a debater to reckon with in younger days and is a double graduate with LLB degree. Mrs. Veena Singh (Librarian) is an exponent of Kathak & Fashion Designing. Ms.Preety Choudhari, a passout of JNU, is an active social worker and a regular columnist of

repute. Dr. Upma Chaturvedi is a litterateur and a handy craft expert. Ms. Kavita Agarwal is well versed in budgeting rules and other govt. functioning. Dr. Manjul Pande Parvez is a sports person of National level. The Principal, Mrs. U. Srivastava, too, is a person who wears many hats-singing, needle work, cooking work etc. Dr. Seema Singh Katiyar and Dr. Ranjana Krishna are into all aspects of English Literature. Dr. Shanti Rai has an experience in the world of finance.

A major factor of success is the motivation of the teachers which also translates into motivation of the students. All the people involved in these projects see creativity as arising from everyday life and value its spill-over effects of learning.

Evidence of success :-

Wherever the students of Avadh Girls’ Degree College go they win all the laurels and prizes by their quality and level of performances be it a debate, dance, recital, poster painting or drama. The College receives invitations for participations from everywhere including professional colleges and Institute which do not generally invite undergraduate Colleges like the I.I.T.S. and I.I.M.S

Year after year the College has been holding Inter Collegiate Cultural Festival -the Nazrana-E-Avadh. This festival is a highly popular event in the calendar of the city’s colleges’ events. The popularity of this event is evident by the number of participants increasing every year.

Problems Encountered and Resources Acquired

How can we enhance the quality of students' participation & their performances. A number of students do not show any interest in the extra curricular activities of the College. The challenge is how best to integrate and balance different ways of teaching & learning that would promote students’ participation in all activities of the College.

Lack of funds and non availability of a proper stage are the severe handicaps that our College faces in the quality production of cultural programmes. Stage set up and various props and costumes are hard to come by in the pace of paucity of financial resources.
