Feedback mechanism:

Students give the feedback about the teachers at the end of each session/semester.Students of

each department are expected to do so for all the teachers concerned with theirclass. Besides, informal

interaction between the students and the Class Teacher /H.O.D./Principal about issues pertaining to

teaching quality is also encouraged. Teachers are counselled by the departmental head and/or principal

regarding measures to improve subject understanding and/or teaching skills.

Computerization of Administrative Block:

administrative block has been partially computerized. The administrative staff has been given formal

training to understand the technicalities pertaining to working on the technology.

Computerization of Library:

The college has made the library partially computerized.

Minimum -Balance Accounts:

The College has facilitated its staff as well as the other internal stakeholders, i.e. the students

by providing them the facility to maintain a Rs.100/- balance bank account in the Syndicate bank, located

in the town itself. This has helped the students in many ways like student insurances.

Academic Innovations:

The institution has introduced many new innovative practices to help the students in their

pursuit of attaining quality education. The college has introduced remedial Classes for the students. This

has helped them to improve their learning abilities. The College has also started a new innovative

technique to help the students revise their syllabi. The teachers introduced the skill of drafting question

banks. These questions are framed on the basis of the questions being framed in the last examinations.

This has helped ease the burden of the students and improve the pass percentage.

The teachers are informed to write teaching diary, lesson plan and the head of the Institution

examine them weekly and attest the signature. The plan of action decided at the beginning of the

year in the IQAC meeting created a positive impact on the teaching and learning process.
