Analysis of data and facts on different components of academic and administrative aspects were
carried out. The process was conducted by IQAC with participation of members form faculties,
and non-teaching staff. External agency was not involved.
SWOT – SUMMARY
Major conclusions of SWOT study have been described below.
Strengths: The predominance of women students especially from backward communities who
are well-disciplined and studious is a great boon to the institution. They seem to excel boys in
academic performance, extra-curricular and co-curricular activities and discipline in general.
However this does not mean that male student clan is too bad in their performance. The SWOT
analysis team arrived at this conclusion with respect to one of the major vision and mission
statement of the College, i.e empowerment and education of women. More than 65% of the total
student count is women with high percentage of marks at input and output ends. They never
involve directly or indirectly in any indiscipline issues however simple or complex they may be.
They always follow a democratic and systematic way of presenting their grievances before the
authorities. Girls always take a lead role in social contact programmes shaking off the hesitation
inherent in rural girls. The result analysis data and extra-curricular performance profile show a
very positive bias to women.
Weaknesses:
Insufficiency of library resources and level of automation needs to be addressed.
There are hardly 32000 entries with partial automation. Taking into consideration the diversity
and number of courses offered by the institution, the present resources are to be enhanced
significantly with total automation. Stacking facilities and library staff are also required for

efficiently handling the existing problems. The UGC and other Government funds allotted for
library improvement are not always sufficient to meet the needs.

Analysis of the feedback from Stakeholders
Manual feedback on Curriculum, Infrastructure, Student Support and Teaching& Learning are
collected from students, parents, alumni and teachers. The collected feedbacks are analyzed
and appropriate actions are taken after discussions in departments, staff council, IQAC and
management.
I. Students: Separate feedback on curriculum (for even and odd semesters separately)
is taken. In all types of feedbacks, students are allowed to maintain anonymity in
responses. The format is supplied to and recollected from the students by the head of
the institution directly. Views, opinions and assessment made by the students are
carefully processed and necessary follow-up is made by the
Department/Faculty/Heads in terms of teaching methodology, rapport, and support.
The head of the institution has made it mandatory for all teachers to obtain the
feedback made by students on them and to take necessary corrective action.
Departmental meetings are conducted after collecting completed feedback forms
from students for the improvement of infrastructural facilities, library matters and
other academic activities.

II. Alumni: Meetings of General and departmental Alumni Associations are organised
in the college and share their views and opinions on all matters. This also provides an
opportunity for the present teachers to bridge the gap between the old and the new. It
has been indicated from Alumni feedback that more field trainings are needed in
Aquaculture as many of the alumni employed in seafood and farming sector felt such
a requirement.
III. Parents: Questionnaire for parent feedback is prepared in Malayalam to facilitate
response marking from them. Conduct of Class-wise PTA at least once in one
semester for each class is a micro level arrangement to obtain direct feedback from
parents. In addition to this frequent telephonic discussions are made in necessary
cases among class tutors and/or Head of Departments and guardians/parents.
Executive Committee of PTA makes a minimum of six sittings per calendar year in
which the representatives of parents’ wing can express any matter related to
administrative, academic or infrastructural areas. Such comments if any are registered
in minutes to facilitate tackling of it at the earliest.
IV. Teachers: Peer feedback among teachers and student feedback on teachers taken. The
feedback on teachers is taken directly from students by the Principal and IQAC. Peer
feedback is taken at department level and discussed in department meetings. Teacher
feedback by students are analysed in IQAC meetings and necessary remedial measures are
suggested wherever required.

Best Practices of the Institution
• Publication of ‘Ormakkay’ – the alumni directory every year.
• Noon meal programme for the poor by NSS.
Best Practice 1
• Publication of ‘Ormakkay’ (for memories) – the alumni directory every year.
Introduction:
Alumni of an educational institution form an invaluable asset helping in the all round
performance and growth of their alma mater. MES Asmabi college is endowed with a vibrant
alumni association. It is a true pillar supporting the college in every segment of its existence and
prosperity.
Goal:
To have a strong database and a platform for sharing the memories. The directory records the
literary skills, activities and opinions.
The Context:
The College having established in 1968 owns a good number of alumni scattered world over.
The need of an official publication acting as a record of alumni which grows year after year was
strongly felt. So the Executive Committee way back in 2005 has decided to publish alumni
directory and was implemented in the same year. The association has since been publishing it
every year, this year’s directory (‘Ormakkay’) being the 12th issue.
The Practice:
A task team including the executive committee members collect data from outgoing batch and
retiring staff including their photographs and address. Literary entries are also invited from
alumni. All contact details are computerised and updated. An editorial board constituted from
alumni themselves edits and or verifies the contents and is released towards the end of the next
academic year. The copies are distributed to all students who complete their programme of study
every year and other alumni members and staff.
Evidence of Success:
The directory is conceived as the master file of alumni data, activities and talents. It is
considered as a reliable document for many official purposes. Its release occurs as a routine but
structured practice since its inception.
Problems encountered and Resources required:
Financial constraints occasionally delay its publication and also data collection rarely takes more
time. However life membership and generous contribution from alumni always keep it going as
a creditable practice.

Best Practice 2
• Noon meal programme for the poor by NSS.
Introduction:
Sharing the fortunes of life’s bounty is seldom practiced by human beings. A helping mindset is perhaps
the highest of human values. People throw away a lot of food as rubbish forgetting the millions who are
badly in need of at least a single meal per day to extinguish their hunger.
The Context:
National Service Scheme has two units functioning in the college (Unit No. 53 and 95) accommodating
200 volunteers. The noble idea of providing noon meal at least once in a month to starving people
originated in the minds of young and kind volunteers.
The Practice:
NSS volunteers created a platform SIGNATURE. This platform serves to address educational, social,
environmental and other concerns. As a first initiative volunteers gave packed lunch to Brothers
charitable society, N Paravur, a Municpal town 26 KM away from the college. The NSS Units have
identified this institution as the beneficiary because of the financial constraints of the charitable society
who is providing food to the inmates free of cost. Volunteers procured hygienically prepared and packed
food from reliable caterers (rice and curries) and transported them in their own vehicles. This is done in
the second week of every month.
Evidence of Success:
Widespread appreciation and blessings are received by the young volunteers. The society members and
inmates keep a strong rapport and love with the volunteers and NSS Programme Officers.
Problems encountered and Resources required:
Funds for the programme is often a constraint, though the programme is not discontinued due to this
problem. Fund is generated through voluntary contribution from staff and students. Moreover some of the
departments sponsor the total amount required for the programme.
