students it seeks to serve, institutions traditions and value orientations,
vision for the future etc?
Our mission statement is in conformity with the vision we have for the
future. It emphasizes our realization of the need for redefining the goals so
as to provide value based education combined with enhanced training in
skills that would equip the students for global demands. We believe that
this is possible only through providing a good number of programme
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 31

Self Study Report Cycle 1


options (with this view we have started new courses). These programmes
have to be in the realms of newly developing subjects like Computers and
Electronics which the society now needs.
Our mission is to develop responsible words global citizens who are
proactive and adapatbale professionals through and evolving and
progressive curriculum and world class facilities.
Our mission statement reflects our desire to develop a knowledge
society among the student Community and to create an awareness of the
opportunities they have after leaving the institution. We have the task of
exposing our students to the advancement in the world outside. One of the
chief features of the institution is that it aims at providing higher education
that is in inexpensive. This suits the students of this backward area.

3. What are the goals and objectives of the college? How are they made
known to the various stakeholders?
As already mentioned our goals and objectives are reflected in our
vision and mission statement.
Our primary aim is to help the students of our rural background to
realize the on going changes in the advanced realms of education and to
instill confidence that is required to face the challenges ahead.
Identifying and enhancing the hidden talents of the students and
helping them come out of the traditional reserve attitude and face the world
of competition with self confidence is our aspiration.
We use different methods to let these aims and objectives be known to
the public especially to stake-holders.
A Hand Book is given to students in the beginning of the academic
year in which our aims and objectives are detailed. We frequently conduct
Parent Meetings and apprise them of the academic activities in the college
and seek their suggestions.
We hold orientation classes to students and impress upon them the
aims and objectives of the college. On occasions like the College
Anniversary Day the public are apprised of our efforts in providing real
education in the college.

4. What are the major considerations addressed to by the goals and


objectives of the college? (Intellectual, Academic, Training, Access to
the Disadvantaged, Equity, Self Development, Community & National
Development, Ecology and Environment, Value Orientation,
Employment, ICT introduction, Global Demands, etc.)
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 32

Self Study Report Cycle 1


We have a clear understanding of the goals to be reached in the near
future. Our foremost concern is to expand the programme options by
starting new courses that are much sought after by students. Creating an
awareness of the various employment opportunities, providing academic and
economic help to the students of the disadvantaged sections, instilling in
the students the responsibility of participating in the national development,
are our other concerns. Through our N.C.C., N.S.S. and the R.R. Club, we
hope to do our mite in developing a pollution free society. Students are
being encouraged to participate in various socially useful activities like Anti
AIDS campaign, Communal harmony etc.
Introducing I.C.T. at various levels of administration and Teaching Learning process is being actively considered.
Efforts are being made to make self development a part of the
students curriculum. With this view, we invited a number of eminent
personalities in the fields of Yoga and Career counselling to address the
students.
We strive to make the students realize the need for developing an eco
friendly atmosphere in our society.
The concepts of community and national development and of
traditional values are a part of our idea of education.
Social justice and equal opportunities to all sections of the community
are ensured. Help to disadvantaged sections is provided. The Career
guidance cell
lets the students have an idea of the employment
opportunities and the preparation for getting jobs.

5. How are the institutional goals translated into the academic


programmes, research and extension activities of the institution?
We have been making consistent efforts over four decades to translate
the institutional goals into reality.
With a view to provide instruction in the courses that are in demand
Self-finance courses in B.Com. Computer, B.Sc. Computer Science and
B.Sc. Statistics have been introduced.
Guidance in studies and employment seeking is being provided
through career guidance cells.
Extension activities are taken up with N.S.S., N.C.C., R.R. Club &
Students in general. Occasions like Aids day, Communal harmony week are
utilized to create an awareness of the need for social service.
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 33

Self Study Report Cycle 1


We make sincere efforts to enlighten the public in regard to issues like
religious tolerance, dignity of labour etc.
N.S.S. and N.C.C. volunteers participate in activities like tree
plantation, slum clearance, literacy campaign; Pulse Polio, Eye Camp
programmes Blood donation camps etc. N.S.S. Students participated a
Seven day Special Camp at Surrounding villeges like Venkatapuram,
Kanchipalli, Mundlapadu, etc. in 2011-12
We have a long standing tradition of offering service to the society.
Our participation in JANMABHOOMI PROGRAMME was a story of
dedicated service. The College has been awarded a sum of Rs. 1,00,000/under this programme in 1997. This indicates our sincerety and dedication
toward the social service.
To provide students practical knowledge of the things taught in the
class rooms, we undertake field trips, historical tours, educational tours of
the students in banking etc, by having linkages with organizations like
S.B.I., L.I.C. and Department of Forests.
1.2 Curriculum Development

1. Specify the steps undertaken by the institution in curriculum


development process. (Need assessment, development of information
database from faculty, students, alumni, employees and academic
experts, and formalizing the decisions in statutory academic bodies).
As an under graduate college, affiliated to Acharya Nagarjuna
University, the college does not have a cognizable role to play in the
development of curriculum. Feedback from students regarding the courses
offered enables us to realise their needs and the same is kept in view by the
members of the Board of Studies while making suggestions to the
university.

2. State specifically the curricular design and model adopted by the


college in the organization of its curricula. What system does the
institution follow: Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) and Semester
patterns?
The designing of the curriculum is made by Acharya Nagarjuna
University to which the college is affiliated. Normally the Board of Studies
in each subject suggests the breakup of syllabus in regard to a given time
frame. We stick to the schedule suggested and each department prepares the

S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 34

Self Study Report Cycle 1


annual academic calendar keeping in view the number of feasible hours
each subject is given.
The annual system is followed in the organization of the curriculum.
The University suggests a time frame for the syllabus to be covered. This
schedule is followed as far as possible.
The University provides the Almanac for each academic year and it is
implemented making allowances for local needs.

3. How are the global trends in higher education reflected in the


curriculum?
As already mentioned the curriculum for all under graduate courses is
fixed by the University. The Acharya Nagarjuna University introduced
restructured courses like B.Sc. Computer Science, B.Sc. Electronics & B.Sc.
Statistics in 1994-95 academic year and B.Com. Computer in 2010-11
respectively and introduced subjects at the degree level that are in tune with
the emerging trends in higher education. English is gaining prominence as a
global language. As such we are making efforts to promote the use of
English in the class rooms. The department of English proposes to conduct
classes in Spoken English and Communication skills to all students.
Subjects like Computer Science, Statistics and B.Com. (Computers)
that would equip the students in meeting the demands in the modern world
are introduced in the college. The core traditional values that have to be
preserved are taught through subjects like Contemporary India,
Environmental Science and Science and Technology Development.
The new syllabus introduced in various degree courses emphasizes
training in computer operation and developing Communication skills. Basic
principles of Computers are taught to all degree students. The Internet
facility is made available in the college and in near future the students will
be provided access to it.
Environmental Education is being introduced in all degree courses,
which teaches the students the need for creating pollution free and eco
friendly society. S.T.D. and office automation tools are introduced so as to
have awareness in the students on latest technology.

4. How does the institution ensure that the curriculum bears some thrust
on national development?
We are adapting ourselves to the changing context in the realm of
education. The curriculum designed by the University inculcates the ideas of
the national development through subjects like Indian Heritage and Culture.
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 35

Self Study Report Cycle 1


The concept is further driven home to students through the activities of
N.C.C./N.S.S./Red Ribbon etc. Apart from this lecturers often try to
inculcate upon the students the need for religious tolerance, national
development etc. in their classes.

5. What are the contributions of the institution in curriculum design and


development of the various programmes? (Member of BOS/ by sending
agenda items etc.,)
There is a very limited scope for the institution in curriculum design
and development of various programmes as the university is the competent
authority for this activity. However teachers appointed as members of Board
of Studies in various subjects have done their best to incorporate in the
syllabus curricular aspects that would be in conformity with the local needs.

6. What are the interdisciplinary courses introduced during the last five
years?
English and a second language are compulsory interdisciplinary
courses. Apart from these Contemporary India and Environmental Science
and Science and Technology Development (S.T.D.) are also
interdisciplinary.

7. What value added courses are introduced which would


(1) Develop skills
To develop the skills of the students that are necessary in
the modern education courses in the B.Sc. with Computers and
Statistics and B.Com. Computers have been added to our
programmes. Practical classes and field trainings are provided for
developing the skills of students at global level.
(2) Offer career training
There are no specific courses that offer career training.
However the career development cell provides the necessary
information regarding career training.
(3) Promote community orientation?
There is no opportunity to introduce courses in community
orientation. This activity forms a part of our extension activities. In
Contemporary India, the compulsory subject in first year ideas like
community orientation, religious tolerance and the like are
incorporated.

S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

8. What percentage of the courses focus on experiential learning including


practical and work experience?

practical work has a considerable place. The percentage of practical work
subject wise is as follows.
English

40%

Maths

30%

Physics

35%

Chemistry

40%

Botany

9. Is there a provision for incorporating computer training in curriculum


for all students?
Computer training is a part of the curriculum for all degree classes.
The department of Computer science offers short term training in Computer
Programming for all degree students and the knowledge of Computer
operation is essential for all the students of first and second year courses.
Students of B.Com have a paper on Computer Science.

10.What are the courses aiming to promote value education/social


citizenship roles?
No exclusive courses are offered that aim at promoting value
education. However in subjects like Indian Heritage & Culture students are
taught the need for the values to be inherited by them. They are made to
realize their social responsibilities. Our extension activities inculcate the
core values among the students.

11.What thrust is given to Information Communication Technology in


the curriculum for equipping the students for global demands?
The use of I.C.T. is on a low key. All the students are taught the basics
of computer operation. Internet facility is made available in the college. In
the coming days we propose to utilize I.C.T. at an optimum level. Training
will be provided in the use of fax in the days to come.

Self Study Report Cycle 1


In our college we identify the slow learners in each class in the first
quarter of the academic year. For this we take into consideration the marks
obtained by the students in the first Bi-monthly test and Quarterly
Examinations. Based on the performance of the students those who are
lagging behind are identified. Normally every year, from the first week of
November remedial teaching and study hours are arranged for such
students.
Printed material necessary for the students is provided by different
faculties.
The progress of the slow learners and the disadvantaged is monitored
by the class teacher. Necessary instruction and counselling is given to them.
4. Does the institution provide flexibility to the students to move from one
discipline to the other?
This facility is available in the beginning of the academic year.
Students admitted in one programme, if they feel it difficult to pursue, have
the option to move to another, within a specified time.
5. Does the institution provide facilities for credit transfer, if the students
migrate from one institution to another institution in or outside the
country?
Yes. This facility is available subject to the rules of the university. The
university provides special permission to the students whose parents receive
transfer orders in the middle of the academic year. As per the instructions
and guidelines received from the university the Principal provides them
seats in the institution. So far no Foreigner or N.R.I. was given seat in the
institute under credit transfer basis.
6. Does the institution provide (a.) Core options (b.) Elective options?

administration of the college acts upon this feedback to better the
academic quality of the college.
In the class room teachers often test the students
understanding of the subject through suggestive questions.
Our Home Examinations also serve as feedback from
students.
(b) Alumni
The alumni association of the college was started three
years ago. Some of our old students work in our college as
lecturers and ministerial staff. Besides we are in constant touch
with our old students who happen to be the models of excellence
and success in their lives. We invite them to the college whenever
occasion arises and take into consideration their views on the
development of the college.
(c) Employers
The Managing Committee are the employers of the
members of the staff of the institution. The Secretary and
Correspondent holds periodical meetings with the staff and issues
necessary directions in regard to the running of the institution.
A register containing the instructions of the employers and
action taken reports are maintained by the Principal. A similar one
is maintained in the office by the superintendent.
The management appraises the performance of the staff
through the prescribed format and offers necessary suggestions.
(d) Community
Receiving feedback from the community is mainly through
the Parents Association. Three or four meetings are held in every
year with the parents community and their suggestions are
received regarding the functioning of the college. Importance is
given to the problems, if any, faced by girl students.
(e) Academic peers
We take suggestions from academic peers whenever an
occasion arises. We take into account the advice given by
educationists or guest lecturers who visit our institution. Recently
we invited a number of eminent persons in different walks of life

2. Criteria wise Inputs
Criterion II: Teaching Learning and Evaluation
2.1 Admission Process
1.How are the students selected for admission to the various courses?
The admissions to degree classes are governed by the guidelines
issued by the Acharya Nagarjuna University. The salient features of the
process of admission are
The Principal appoints a committee consisting of five members
of teaching staff, one of whom acts as the convener. The
committee is entrusted with scrutiny of applications,
preparation of selection list and waiting list strictly in
accordance with the rules and regulations for admission. The
selection lists and waiting lists are prepared strictly in the order
of merit, course wise, group wise and medium wise giving
preference to students who passed the qualifying examinations
in the first attempt.
The committee submits the lists to the Principal. The Principal
ensures that the lists have been prepared according to rules.
Admissions are made on the basis of aggregate marks obtained by
each candidate in all the subjects of the qualifying examinations.
The rules of reservation are strictly followed in making the
admissions. A uniform and foolproof procedure suggested by the University
is followed. Any other instructions communicated either by the University
or the government from time to time are complied with.
2.What strategies are adopted to create access to
a) Disadvantaged community
Students belonging to the disadvantaged community are
provided admission following the rules of reservation. They can also
seek admission in the open competition. The following is the
reservation pattern. For SCs 15%, for STs 6%, for BCs 25%
b) Women
30% of seats available are kept reserved for women.
c) Physically challenged
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 46

Self Study Report Cycle 1


3% of Seats are available to physically disabled candidates.
d) Economically weaker sections of the society
The Management of the College Committee and the staff
members are generous in paying the college fees to the deserving
meritorious students. Economically backward students are provided
scholarships by the Government.
3. What is the ratio of applications received to admissions granted?
(Demand ratio)
The overall ratio of applications received during the academic year
2012-13 is 1:1.5 (Average figures for all the courses put together).
2.2 Catering to Diverse Needs
1. Is there a provision for assessing students knowledge/ needs and skills
before the commencement of the teaching programme?
Yes. There is a need for assessing the knowledge of the student
before the commencement of the teaching programme. Teachers ascertain
the level of understanding of the student so that they can distinguish
between the slow learners and the advanced students. This is done through
interaction with the students in an informal way so as to ascertain their
aptitudes and skills.
2. Does the institution provide bridge courses to the educationally
disadvantaged students?
Yes. Bridge Courses are provided in some faculties to students
coming to degree classes from a different stream at the +2 level. The
department of Zoology conducted bridge course for students who joined
B.Sc. (B.Z.C.) coming from a group with Fisheries at the Intermediate level.
The department of Botany conducted these classes for B.Z.C. students that
come from Fisheries group at +2 level.
The faculty of Commerce held Bridge Course classes for students
who joined B.Com. coming from Science and Arts groups in the
Intermediate. These courses were conducted in the month of July.
3. What remedial measures are taken for the students from the
disadvantaged communities?
Students from the disadvantaged communities are encouraged to
pursue Higher Education. In order to help them cope with the academic
requirements remedial teaching is offered to them, generally out of the

S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 47

Self Study Report Cycle 1


regular class hours. Certain confidence building measures are adopted to
boost their morale.
2.3 Teaching Learning Process
1. How does the institution plan and organize the teaching learning
evaluation schedule into the total scheme? Do you have an academic
calendar? How is it prepared?
The Teaching Learning evaluation schedule is prepared well in
advance during the summer vacation for the ensuing academic year.
Normally the academic calendar prepared by the University reaches us in
February/March. Feasible number of hours to be allotted to each paper are
suggested. The academic calendar is prepared with the help of the Calendar
Committee.
The Calendar committee for the present year consists of
Dr. V. Bali Reddy, Lecturer in Telugu, department of Telugu,
Dr. A.Kanchiyya, Lecturer in History, department of History with Principal
as the Chairman.
The Staff Council plays an important role in the preparation of
annual calendar. They decide the number of optional holidays to be given.
The almanac for the year is prepared taking into consideration the
number of working days, month wise. The breakup of syllabus unit wise is
prepared. For this members of every department meet and prepare the
annual academic plan for the whole year in all the papers taught by the
faculty. Allowance is made for any unforeseen loss of working days or
dislocation of work. While preparing unit wise syllabus the academic plan
suggested by the University is followed as far as possible.
The target syllabus month wise is covered by the individuals.
Statements regarding the coverage of syllabus are obtained from
individuals every two months as a measure of feedback. The information is
recorded in the Performance Indicators.
1. Annual academic plan.
2. Coverage of syllabus month wise.
The in-charges of the departments supervise the coverage of
syllabus.
At the end of the month each teacher reviews the coverage of
syllabus and holds extra classes for the students for whom the targeted
syllabus is not covered.
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 48

Self Study Report Cycle 1


Every lecturer has to maintain a teaching diary in which the
coverage of syllabus and a synopsis of the subject taught is recorded. The
in-charge of the department verifies the diaries at the end of every month
and offers necessary suggestions to the individual lecturers. The teaching
diaries are submitted to the Principal once in a month.
In the class rooms a student centric approach is adopted. Smart
strategies are used to make the process of teaching a pleasant job. We have a
team of well trained and experienced teachers who work with dedication. In
the first few days of the academic year the academically backward students
are identified and special attention is provided to them.
Students of the first year degree courses who come from a different
stream in the +2 stage are provided Bridge courses in some faculties.
Every teacher uses some time to get a feedback from students on the
subject he has taught in the previous classes. Special attention is provided to
students lagging behind in the class.
Evaluation is mainly through the examinations we conduct. Every
year three major home tests i.e. Quarterly, Half-yearly and Hope
examinations are conducted. Beside these two or three Bi-monthly tests are
conducted. Lecturers allot a few periods for Assignments.
The number of working days is normally 220 inclusive of
examination days. We adhere to the working schedule suggested by the
University.
2. What courses use predominantly the lecture method? Apart from
classroom interactions, what other methods of teaching-learning are
provided to students?
In almost all courses we use the conventional lecture method with
the Black Board as the major teaching-aid. But often in various faculties,
teachers use additional resources in teaching - learning process. Charts,
models, and Over Head Projectors are used depending on the need. In the
language lab computers and hearing devices (Micro Phones) are used.
Science department use the facility of Epidiascope which is available in the
Botany department. Recently we have added an L.C.D. to our infrastructure
which will be of great use in teaching.
The lecturers guide the students in preparing their seminar topics.
Seminars are conducted inviting resource persons belonging to different
places. For science students Biological tours are arranged.

3. How is learning made student-centered? Give a list of the participatory
learning activities adopted by the college, which contribute to selfmanagement of knowledge development and skill formation?
In the process of Teaching - Learning priority is given to the learner.
There is a lot of diversity in the learning levels of students in each class.
Each lecturer is advised to identify the students who are advanced and those
who are lagging behind. Our students are largely from rural areas and are
accustomed to conventional methods of teaching and learning. We have
been inculcating in them a sense of developing knowledge and skills.
Students are encouraged to use the library as a source of learning.
They are assigned the task of gathering information regarding the subjects/
topics they studied from magazines and news papers.
They are made to participate in the Teaching - Learning process
through seminars where they are encouraged to present papers on selected
topics.
The lecturers concerned provide the students the synopsis of the
topics covered. The students are given the list of reference books before the
commencement of a particular topic.
Many of these students are from very poor families with very little
financial support. Their family background has not provided them the
necessary awareness in pursuing education on scientific lines. As such we
have to adopt different techniques to satisfy the needs of these students from
diverse backgrounds when they are taught in a class in combination with the
relatively advanced students. Individual attention is paid to students as far
as possible.
Students are encouraged to develop the faculty of self study and
learn things on their own. Participative learning is ensured through surveys,
field trips etc.
Students of B.Com were taken on a study trip to the local State Bank
of India. They were assisted by the staff of the Bank in studying the working
in the different sectors of the Bank.
4. What modern teaching aids are used in classroom instruction as well as
other student learning experiences?
As mentioned earlier ours is a college functioning in a rural area.
The students here are used to traditional ways of teaching and learning
lecturers are encouraged to prepare models, charts etc. to make their
teaching lively. Over the last few years we have been using some modern
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 50

Self Study Report Cycle 1


teaching aids in classroom instruction. In the departments of Botany and
Zoology we have Over Head Projectors.
For students of first year and second year degree classes computer
systems with listening devices are being used for teaching Phonetics. We
use a L.C.D. Projector as a modern teaching device.
5. Is there a practice of having tutorial classes for the students? If yes, for
what courses?
Yes. Tutorial classes are conducted for all classes. Each department
selects some important questions / topics that are likely to appear in the
coming annual examinations and make the students write Assignments.
Normally this exercise is done outside the regular working hours. The usual
timings for this are from 08:45 to 09:45 AM. Every student has to write a
minimum number of assignments.
6. How is the academic process of each student monitored by the teacher
in charge?
The academic progress of the students is our main concern and we
leave no stone unturned to see that students maintain a sustained progress.
The progress of a student is assessed mainly through his scores in the
periodically conducted examinations. Proctoral system is implemented.
Each class is placed under the supervision of a Class Teacher who monitors
the progress of his students. He makes a note of the short - comings of the
students and takes necessary steps to correct them.
A Cumulative Record of each student is maintained. In it are
recorded particulars like marks obtained in each test, attendance of the
student, extra curricular and co-curricular activities in which the student
participates. This cumulative record is maintained for all the years of the
students stay in the college.
A Consolidated Marks Register is maintained. Particulars of
students scoring low marks in any subject are given to the teacher handling
the subject and remedial measures are taken up.
7. Give details of the course by sessions of work assigned and implemented
in the tutorial session.
In each subject a period a week is allotted to tutorial work. The
syllabus is divided into units and in each unit some selected topics are given
as assignments. Students are made to work on the subject allotted to tutorial
classes through discussion with the teachers. Wherever possible Group
dynamics is encouraged on special topics.
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

8. How do the students and faculty keep pace with the recent
developments in the subjects?
Members of the teaching staff make every effort to keep pace with
recent developments in the subjects in different ways. Lecturers have an
opportunity to update their knowledge of the subject and innovative
techniques in teaching through Refresher courses. Almost all the lecturers
working now have attended the required number of Refresher courses.
Besides they attend various seminars, workshops etc. that would keep them
abreast of the latest developments in the subjects they teach.
We have got a well equipped library that provides good reading
material to the faculty. A number of standard books and journals of current
relevance are made available which enable the students and faculty to
update their knowledge.
We have been arranging a series of guest lectures inviting eminent
personalities in different fields of academic activity to interact with the staff
and students of the college. The list of guest lectures is given below.

10. Has the library working hours been scheduled to enable the students
for maximum utilization of the library facility? Give details.
Library plays a very vital role (in the college) as a learning resource.
In our college students have open access to the library from 09:30 AM to
05:00 PM. If need arises the library works beyond these scheduled working
hours. Different classes are allotted different days in the week for issue of
books. However they can make use of the reading room whenever they have
no classes. Reference books, Public question papers and magazines are
made available on request. Students can have access to the reference section
during fixed hours with the permission of the Librarian.
2.4 Teacher Quality
1. How are the members of the faculty selected? Does the college have the
required number of qualified and competent teachers to handle all the
courses? If not, how do you cope with the requirements?
Members of the faculty are selected through the process prescribed
by the government and the University. Vacant posts are filled up after
obtaining permission from the Commissioner and Director of Collegiate
Education of Andhra Pradesh. Vacancies are notified on the basis of student
strength in each section and work load. Applications are called for from
eligible candidates through advertisement in dailies. Selection is made based
on the performance of the candidates in the interview and merit. The
selection committee consists of the Regional Joint Director, University
nominee, Principal and the Correspondent of the college. The selections by
this committee are to be ratified by the Director of Collegiate Education.
At present, because of a ban on recruitment of the faculty (except in
the case of SC/ST backlog vacancies) in some departments there is a
shortage of teaching staff. Part time lecturers are appointed wherever there
is need.
2. How does the college appoint substitutes/ additional faculty to teach
existing and new programmes? How many such appointments were
made during the last year?
---- Nil ---3. What efforts are made by the management to promote teacher
development? (eg: research grants, study leave, deputation to national/
international conferences/ seminars, in service training, organizing of
national/ international conferences etc).

S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 55

The Management of the college does its best to promote teacher
development. Teachers are encouraged to improve their quality by allowing
them to attend Refresher Courses, orientation courses, seminars, in-service
training etc. All the teachers attended the required number of Refresher
courses and Seminars.
We have arranged a few seminars in the college.
4. What are the teaching innovations made in the last five years? How are

Students are made to go into society and realize the realities existing there.
N.C.C. and N.S.S. students are sent to the people on different contexts like
Anti AIDS campaign, observance of Communal Harmony and similar
programmes. Even in the class rooms, teachers inculcate upon the students
social and moral values. These values are prominently discussed in subjects
like Indian Heritage & Culture. Students are made to participate in the
celebration of National Festivals and develop a patriotic spirit.
2. What are the exclusive courses on value education? Or is it integrated
into the existing courses appropriately?
There are no exclusive courses on value based education apart
from what is integrated in the curriculum prescribed by the University.
Teachers are endowed with the responsibility of moulding the character of
students and they touch upon the system of values in their regular teaching.
The students are frequently enlightened about their moral and social
responsibilities in N.C.C., N.S.S. and J.K.C. In subject like Indian Heritage
& Culture and Human Values and Professional Ethies, these values are
emphasized.
7.4 Social Responsibilities and Citizenship Roles

roles among the students?
The institution understands the current scenaring of educaiton that
todays students are the citizens of tomorrow and ensures the participation
of students and staff in social service oriented activities. The main platforms
for this activity are N.C.C., N.S.S., Red Cross, and Red Ribbon Club.
Students are made to have a close look at the realities existing in the society
and contribute their mite for its benefit. The staff and the students are
associated with N.G.O.S., Red Cross, Service oriented originations like
Motherss India, Satya Sai Seva Samity and the like in bringing about a
societal transformation through programmes like adult education, Clean &
Green, Blood donation, Traffic control, Female literacy etc. The curriculum

Community orientation programmes are taken up by the N.S.S. and
N.C.C. volunteers. They go to the target groups and enlighten them
regarding a better way of living, need for literacy, maintenance of sanitation,
Tree plantation etc. Rallies and processions are conducted on special
occasions like Aids day. Last year and this year the Communal Harmony
week was observed in a big way with students taking out a procession and
collecting a fund of Rs. 4000/- and 3700/- in respective years. N.S.S.
Students adopt a village and work for its betterment.
The students under the guidance of N.C.C. and N.S.S. officers make
efforts to create awareness among the public regarding many a social issue.
During programmes like Pulse Polio door to door campaign was conducted
by our students. They participate in these activities with enthusiasm.
3. Does the institution have any exclusive programme under extra-mural /
enrichment wing, to promote social responsibilities and citizenship
roles?
The N.S.S. and N.C.C. wings act as the main platforms for
inculcating upon the students their responsibilities as members of the
society.
7.5 Overall Development
1. How does the institution involve all its stakeholders in planning,
implementing and evaluating the academic programmes?
The institution strives to provide a satisfactory answer to the needs
of the stake holders especially the students and their parents. We keep in
touch with the parents through the Parents Association, the meetings of
which are periodically arranged in the college. Suggestions regarding
academic and administrative aspects are received. Any grievances expressed
by them are taken into consideration. Whenever persons of importance visit
the college we obtain their opinions also.
Feedback is obtained from the students on the value of the courses
and the performance of the teachers. An assessment is made on the basis of
this and corrective measures, if needed, are taken up.
2. What strategies are adopted for the effective management of human,
financial, and other learning resources for the overall development of
the students?
Our college is situated in a backward area and our resources are
limited. Our main task is exposing our students to the happenings in the out
side world.
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Page 118

Self Study Report Cycle 1


We are making efforts to raise the level of the Communication Skills
of the students and broaden their knowledge base. Mobilization of resources
is taken care of by the management. The Alumni association also
contributes in this regard. Funds received from the U.G.C. are judiciously
spent.
Maximum utilization of the available human resources is made.
There are well experienced teachers who have a service of about three
decades and they do their best in promoting the quality of education
provided in the college.
Learning resources are adequate. With the assistance of U.G.C,
infrastructure in the laboratories and library is enhanced. Optimum use of all
the potential available is made.
3. How does the institution ensure overall development of the students
considering the curricular and co-curricular activities, researchdevelopment, community orientation, and the personal and spiritual
development of the students?
Our aim is to provide an education to students that would enable the
development of their character and personality. SAVIDYAYA
VIMUKTHAYA is our motto and we are committed to making our
students real men and women who are sensitized to human values.
Both inside the class room and outside we strive to provide an
atmosphere that promotes positive values among the students with the
teachers being the role models. Community orientation is provided through
our N.S.S., N.C.C., and Eco Clubs.
Co-curricular activities are encouraged. Students are taken on field
trips and survey tours. They are made to realize the realities of the society.
Students are encouraged to display their efforts in learning on their
own. The departments of Zoology and Botany launched programmes like
Learn An Animal a Day, A Plant a Day in which students are encouraged to
display the information they gather about animals and plants. Similar
activity is carried out by some other departments. Students are encouraged
to collect News paper clippings with useful information and place them in
departments concerned.
We do our little to the spiritual development of the students.
Frequently training classes in Meditation and Yoga are arranged for the staff
and students. Recently Yoga classes are conducted in the college by the
members of Dhyana Mandali, Vijayawada. The students are encouraged
to participate in sports and games and they are doing well in this field.

7.6 Institutional Ambience and Initiatives
1. What measures have been taken by the institution to create the
institutional ambience for teaching and learning?
Our teaching and learning is the main prop of the development of
the college. Although we can not have a claim for blazing new trials in
this field we avow that we are committed to our task within our
limitations. We make optimum and effective use of the resources
available. Many of our teachers have an experience of over 30 years and
know what the students need and how they are to be taught.
Teachers are advised to develop a learner centered education while
adopting a holistic approach to the issue of conducting the academic
activity. The methodology of evolving innovative techniques is the choice
of individual departments who know what is best for their students.
However they seek the suggestion of those who have made a mark in this
regard. Innovative techniques like using L.C.D., O.H.P.s are in use.
Mere pedagogical or pedantic approach is discouraged as it does
not make the teaching - learning process a wholesome affair. Creating an
interest in the students is our objective. Establishing a rapport with the
student community is our concern.
Smooth and effective running of the classes is ensured. Maintenance
of campus discipline is entrusted to some of the senior lecturers with the
Physical Director having an overall supervision.
With adequate infrastructure, learning resources experienced and
committed teaching and non-teaching members of staff we hope to
effectively carry on our responsibility of providing quality education to
students from diverse backgrounds and enhance their competencies and
skills which enable them face the challenges ahead in the changing World
order with confidence.
2. Has the institution made any initiative to have a technologically
advanced infrastructure to make learning an effective process?
To make learning a lively and effective process, we have been
making use of O.H.P. in science departments. Of late we have added to the
infrastructure an L.C.D. Projector. Very soon packages of material will be
provided for students.
3. Has the institution done a gender audit and / or any gender related
sensitizing courses for the staff/students?
The institution has not made any gender audit.
S.V.A.S.College, Giddalur, Prakasam District, A.P.

Self Study Report Cycle 1


4. Are there any other measures taken by the institution to make it a
learner friendly system?
The learners are provided a conducive atmosphere in the classrooms
as well out of the classes. They can have free access to the teaching faculty.
Sources of learning like the library, Internet are thrown open to them. Due
consideration is given to their opinion regarding the academic and
administrative aspects, through feedbacks obtained from them. Students are
provided the required amenities in all respects and their grievances are
attended to on expeditious basis. Thus we have evolved a learner friendly
system which makes the teaching - learning system a pleasant affair for the
student community.
