2.12 How does IQAC Contribute/Monitor/Evaluate the Teaching & Learning processes:

The IQAC contributes significantly to improve the teaching and learning process; primarily by functioning as an agent for self-introspection at the end of each academic session. The parameters enunciated in the IQAC are questioned, analyzed and discussed as also the various practices adopted by the college during that year and this leads to re-thinking and pre-planning for the next session, thus reducing inherent complacency in the system. It helps in monitoring, promotion, implementation and continuous improvement in college curriculum, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. It also inspires students to maximize the utilization of library resources.

7.2 Provide the Action Taken Report (ATR) based on the plan of action decided upon at the beginning of the year:

Action Taken Report See Annexure II

7.3 Give two Best Practices of the institution

TWO BEST PRACTICES:

The Best Practices that may be given the credit of being called the two best

practices are:

Making the students socially responsible citizens.

Creating maximum emphasis on practical knowledge by

imparting Vocational Education.

Best Practice-I

Title of the Practice: To make the students socially sensitised and

responsible citizens.

Goals: To produce well aware, confident and courageous

women to encounter social evils.

The Context: Social evils and crimes against women are rampant

in the society. So it is the need of the hour that

women at the college level are well trained through

different programmes to stand against these evils.

The Practice: NSS units and extension activity programmes train the

students to serve the society and fight social evils.

Frequent programmes are organized to create awareness

of various aspects.

Legal literacy cell & Women Cell create awareness about women empowerment and provide counselling regarding the legal rights of women through an Advocate who is on the panel.

N.C.C. Units remains active throughout the year and gives trainings and instil confidence in the girl students.

Service of many kinds like promoting literacy, creating health awareness, maintaining hygiene and cleanliness etc. are rendered to rural population through camps and campaigns.

The Career Guidance Cell imparts counselling and guidance regarding various career opportunities among students and society.

Programmes like Disaster Management Training, First Aid Training etc. provide the students ability to fight with emergencies and calamities that may befall, and rescue and help their social counterparts during hours of need.

Evidence of Success:

The institution successfully motivates the students to have

increased involvement in social campaigns organized by

Govt. and non-government organizations.

Problems encountered and the Resources required:

Social Resistance- When different Literacy or medical

surveys are conducted, people of the adopted slum areas

show resistance to participate. It is very difficult to

persuade them to come out and attend different Legal

Literacy lectures, Art & Craft workshops, and medical

camps. Even after much effort, not all the women of those

areas participate actively.

Scarcity of Funds- There is hardly any monetary support

from the Govt. or other N.G.Os. to carry out major

development projects, drives, surveys or workshops

during these camps. The volunteers of the N.S.S.unit work

seeking some collaboration of G.Os & N.G.Os.

Administration does not provide active support in

organising these activities and their follow-ups.

Best Practice-II

Title of the Practice: To create maximum scope for practical

knowledge by

giving vocational trainings to students.

Goal: To make the students academically qualified and also

equipped simultaneously with some professional training to

be eligible and employable for different career avenues.

The Practice:

Professional degree: - B.Sc. in Fashion & Textile Designing

has been started in the college to provide a professional

degree to the girl students of this college.

B.Com Computer Vocational: Gives the students an edge

over B.Com General as they become professionally

qualified in Computers and e-learning. They have great

scope for specialised Post Graduation and have better

opportunities in the fields of IT & e-commerce.

Add-on Courses: - Add-on Courses in different genres like

Fashion Designing, Textile Designing, Interior Decoration,

Cosmetology, Diet & Nutrition, Information Technology,

Tally, and Yoga & Functional English are run in the college.

Kurukshetra University provides dual degree to the students

opting these Add-on Course along with their academic

degree. The Add-on Courses have the provision of One-

year Certificate Course, two year Diploma or three year

Advanced Diploma Course.

Short-term workshops on Fabric painting, Glass painting,

Pot painting, Soft-toys making, Mehandi Art, Cookery and

Jam/Jelly/Cake making are organised from time to time.

Gandhian Studies & Research Centre has been running

short-term Certificate Courses of 1,3 &6 months duration on

Cosmetology & Herbal Products, Fabric Designing, Art and

Craft & Cooking.

Nehru Studies & Research centre has been running 3-4

months Certificate on Basics of Computers, Fine Arts

Designing, Textile Designing & Practical thoughts of

Jawahar Lal Nehru.

Yoga classes are often organised in the morning under

qualified Coaches to give the students not only practical

training but also aiming at the development of their

physical, mental and spiritual being.

The athletes and sportsmen are given training of different

games and sports-events under qualified coaches besides

‘Physical education’ being an optional subject so that

students can opt for some career in the field of Sports.

The practical subjects Music Vocal and Music

Instrumental open the avenues in the field of music.

The practical subject of Fine Arts leads to a plethora of

avenues in the field of Arts like Commercial Art, Painting,

Sculpture, Cartoons etc.

Evidence of Success:-

A great number of students have established themselves in

the field of Fashion Designing, Fine Arts, Yoga,

Cosmetology, Sports & IT.

Problems encountered and Resources required: -

Most of the students want to opt for one or more Add-on Courses

but there is time-table constraint. Many of our girl students who

are coming from far-off places or rural areas cannot stay back late

in the evenings for fear of missing their bus or train to their home

place.

Resistance is also faced from their parents sometimes as they have

a narrow minded approach and just want their daughters to

complete the main academic programme with good score and

reach back well in time.

7.4 Contribution to environmental awareness/protection

The Eco and Nature club keeps on making its mark by spreading

awareness about importance of environment and the necessity to

protect it. The students are also actively involved to spread this

awareness among society. Tree plantation camp has been

organized in which different varieties of saplings of herbal,

medicinal and ornamental trees have been planted. The students

were briefed about the way these trees and plants purify the air and

maintain a higher level of ecological balance.

The college campus has a number of trees, shrubs, medicinal

plants, decorative plants, flower pots, a large variety of cactus

plants etc. to promote the healthy environment.

The Waste is converted into manure which is an effort of

sensitization towards environmental protection.

The Water-harvesting through a deep-dug well helps in water-

conservation and maintaining underground water level. During

N.S.S. Camp, the N.S.S. Volunteers planted saplings of trees in the

adopted slum-area also.

7.5 Whether environmental audit was conducted? Yes No

7.6 Any other relevant information the institution wishes to add

After going through the whole exercise of preparing Annual

Quality Assurance Report through collecting data, observations,

analysis and reports from various constituents of the institution,

some of highlights that emerge can be reflected through the

SWOT analysis given below:

Strengths of the Institution:

The institution has very experienced, highly qualified and skilled

teachers who persistently work towards the overall development

of the students. It is under their able guidance that many (more

than 80%) of the students are able to be precise about their clear

objective of life ahead. The teacher and taught have healthy

relationship and strong bonding as small strength in some

subjects and tutorials leads to individual attention. Career

Guidance and Placement Cell always remains active to guide

about suitable opportunities and avenues to the students. Book

bank facility is given to almost all the students. Audio-visual

aids for teaching have always proved as prompters to the

students. The Yoga and Health Centre along with multi-gym

provides sufficient infrastructure, motivation and facilitation to

students to take care of their physical fitness and endurance.

B.Sc. in Fashion Design, PGDCA, B.Com Vocational and Add-

on-Courses are big strides in the direction of Vocational

education.

The Financial assistance to students in the form of scholarships,

stipends etc. helps to encourage the students on merit-cum-

means basis.

Facilities for the convenience of physically challenged students

have been provided e.g. construction of Ramp/suitable

washrooms etc.

The college has purchase a bus to provide transportation

facilities to the students.

Weaknesses

The college faces a little locational disadvantage being on the

outskirts of the city with poor roads and little of ‘government

transport’ facility. The girl students coming from far-off areas

and surrounding rural areas find it difficult and expensive to

approach the Institution.

The girl students have been demanding a Girls-hostel.

More students want transport facility by the college

which has not yet been possible.

To open more P.G. Courses has been the standing

demand of the students and stakeholders.

The College Managing Committee is planning to

improve the commenting faculties for the students.

Opportunities

The College Managing Committee is planning to

purchase a Bus to facilitate the transportation of the

students and staff in near future.

The construction of Girls Hostel has been started.

Efforts will be directed towards opening more courses

in the college.

Threats

The number of the students is difficult to raise because of some of the

factors given below:

1. Opening of a new Govt. Women College in the city where the

students don’t have to pay fees etc.

2. Poor condition of the Approach Road.

3. Locational disadvantages.

8. Plans of the Institution for the Next Year

1. Completion of the Shooting Range.

2. Construction of Girls Hostel.

3. Completion of Ramp leading to Commerce Block/Computer

Labs/Music labs & Library

4. Running of college bus on more routes to facilitate the

transportation of students coming from rural areas, villages and

places a little far from the Institution.

5. Establishment of Additional Computer Lab annexed to Library

6. Extension of Library: Adding a separate wing (fully furnished)
