PREFACE

This is our second attempt to face NAAC accreditation. The previous

one, in 2012, gave us an insight and undoubtedly helped us to enhance the

qualitative and quantitative growth in the field of higher education. We take it

as an opportunity to assess ourselves in order to observe the seven criteria

provided by NAAC. The recommendations of NAAC Peer Team and our

follow up in last four to five years have enabled us to provide better

educational services to our stakeholders.

It’s our pride to serve Medha, a small village in the hilly area. There

were no other means of higher education in and around the village until 2002

and the village youths had no other choice other than farming or working as

mathadi (labour) in Mumbai. Hon. M. L. A. Shashikant Shinde Established

Jaywant Pratishthan in 2000 at the village Humgaon and Sanstha started

senior college in Medha village in 2002. Sanstha is successfully running

Amdar Shashikant Shinde Junior & Senior College of Arts, Commerce &

Science, New English School Kusumbi Mura and a Senior College having an

intake of more than 2000 students among them near about 65% of the students

are girl students.

After getting Accreditated by NAAC, Bangalore with C Grade (CGPA

1.86) in September, 2012, it has largely removed the bias amongst the students

of mofussil area that the quality education can be received only in urban

colleges.

The College is well set for the Second Cycle Accreditation by NAAC.

Since its inception, the college is trying to translate into action its vision and

mission. It’s dedicated, farseeing and transparent management, its research

oriented qualified staff, student centred teaching-learning process and thrust

on information and communication technology as well as its outreach

programmes have helped to satisfy, to some extent, the vision and mission. In

view of this, it is our pleasure to submit our Self Study Report (SSR) to the

NAAC, Bangalore.

The performance of the College is very well reflected in its curricular,

co-curricular and extra-curricular programmes and activities. The college and

the staff is honestly trying to embrace advanced education, information and

communication technology, art, culture and sports and harness the human

potential in the process of nation building. The societal needs are well defined

goals and the dynamics of academic, research and extension activities.

Outreach programmes, NSS activities, Cultural programmes including

organization of University youth festivals and Sports events at university, zone

and all India level. Academic Results with University toppers, which I feel, is

a distinct achievement. Our sincere effort these years has also proved that the

quality and value-based education is possible in villages also and it reflects

well on the institutional vision; to impart quality education.

I take this occasion to be grateful for and thank Coordinator and the

members of Steering Committee, the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)


for sharing the responsibility of drafting the Reaccreditation Report and I also

thank my staff, management and stakeholders for encouraging me in this

endeavour.

I am sure that our sincere efforts to make the citizens of India fully

endowed materially, intellectually and morally will prove fruitful in the

coming days and NAAC will appreciate our small endeavour.

endowed materially, intellectually and morally, the College attempts to nurture

their competence and creativity through innovations in teaching-learning,

knowledge output for human development, women’s education, optimum use

of human infrastructural facilities available, participation of all the

stakeholders in the development of the College, creation of awareness of

human rights, value system, culture, heritage, scientific temper and

environment.

IQAC was formed immediately after its first accreditation on

1/11/2012. The IQAC of the College has developed several quality assurance

mechanisms within the existing academic and administrative system. It

envisions Total Quality Management, for quality sustenance and improvement

in academic and administrative activities of the institution. It supports the

organization of workshops, awareness programmes, extension lectures,

curricula, teaching-learning and evaluation, research oriented seminars,

planning/implementation of advanced learning resources, ICT management

and suggestions for empowerment of staff, leadership and governance patterns

in strategic planning. Policies regarding quality assurance are communicated

in meetings of the different sub-committees, Staff Academy, Student Council

and Alumni, and to the University, State Govt. and NAAC through different

reports submitted annually (PBAS, AQAR). Representatives of all

stakeholders (management, teachers, students, non-teaching staff and Alumni)

2.2.6 How does the institute collect, analyze and use the data and

information on the academic performance (through the programme

duration) of the students at risk of drop out (students from the

disadvantaged sections of society, physically challenged, slow learners,

economically weaker sections etc. who may discontinue their studies if

some sort of support is not provided)?

The data of academic performance of the students is noticed through previous results, attendance record, internal tests, mentoring and

feedback from faculty.

After identifying the students at the risk of drop out especially the slow learners are provided with special guidance, personal counseling, study

material, home assignments, tutorials etc.

The performance of such students is communicated to their parents from time to time.

The students from SC/ST/OBC & economically weaker section seek admission in the college. We therefore take special efforts in getting

government scholarships for such students which is in accordance with

our Mission.

The students who are prone to dropout due to their financial problems are provided with financial aid through S.A. Fund.

The students who are consistently absent are also prone to drop out. The attendance committee of the college displays the numbers of such

students on the noticeboard. The teacher mentors and other faculty

members make phone calls to them. This brings many students in the

main stream and saves them from drop outs.

Economically weaker students are also allowed to pay fees in installments.

Faculty members also extend financial support to such students.
