Digital presentation Long hour session
Mostly theories are covered No visit and guest lecture in our subject Too many theory classes in less time. May month is not appropriate time ( peak summer) Food is not good
Lack of arrangement of transport during lunch time Schedule is very compact and difficult to cope with many classes in
a day Less number of external experts in training
More time should be allotted for microteaching Presentation of concept note preparation need to be given more
classes Time constraint
Less practical sessions No proper problem based programme
Some classes which are of very importance like video and audio making
and data
Analysis may be given extra time and they should be more intensive.
No time was allotted for doing group assignments Accommodation
Not discipline specific
Minor logistics problem
Not field and research practical exposer Not visited to ICAR institutes
Some are not much relevant to their subject oriented Repetitive lectures Some work pressure, It was felt that theoretical teaching method 30 days time is not enough to cover entire syllabus Some time, breaks are the needs.
Visits to international and national research stations / institutes is
needed to aware about indian agriculture. The course schedule would have been changed to reduce our work load
on last 15 days The course schedule would have been changed to reduce our work load
on last 15 days Extension mostly on agriculture, cover other disciplines
16
Hot summer Logistics in the venue to be improved
Digital presentation should be given clearly taught instead of
unnecessary jokes in the class
Research methodology should be well practiced Non audibility of some speakers.
Some were very fast and found difficulty in understanding the subject like basics in computers.
Could have still more organised in lecture schedule Not proper attendance and time management Some biased things observed Very tight schedule, sometime net was not working in the hostel Short duration for practical session Few sessions like concept notes, poster making has scope for
improvement. No leisure period for half a day in a week for refreshing minds Very tight schedule. Focused on covering many lectures in a given period of time No adequate timings for exposure visits Digital presentation is not upto the mark More group interactions among trainees Mainly teaching oriented
Too much of assignment Time is less Strict timings...unable to recap after going back to hostel of what is
taught that day.
Too much information squeezed into short duration Extra academic skills not included
Course content is high Hectic schedule
3. Should the duration of course be extended/curtailed?
I think 21 days duration is enough.
Extended by 10 -15 days It could be 45 days Keep as such Duration is perfect Time is sufficient
Curtail to 15 days 10 days still more extended for practical sessions At least 2 months 20
21 days are sufficient
Yes, it can be, by incorporating some International and National
Institutes Visits....60
either reduce the content or increase the couse duration 90 days (before joining) Extended 5 more days 25 days are sufficient Yes 60 days

sessions Continue yoga session
Yoga should be light not power yoga
Sufficient time to give the preparation poster and concept notes
presentation Sufficient time should be given for assignment at least for group
activities eg. Group Seminar

More information on teaching or practicals they carry out in agricultural Education/research in developed countries Reduce time given for resource people and allot time depending on there
capacity or needs
Bring people who are competent and enthusiastic and fashion in
subject
19
Notice board and local transportation may be facilitated

Course Directors’ Report
2ndFoundation Course for faculty of Agricultural Universities
(1-30, May, 2015)
Programme & Participants' Profile:
The programme was organized at the ICAR-National Academy of
Agricultural Research Management, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad.
Objectives
To give an overview of Agriculture, Agrl. education, research and
extension processes.
To orient on basics of Teaching-learning process, communication,
presentation, technology in teaching-learning, classroom
management etc.
To sensitize on administrative procedures pertaining to their work
environment.
In all 63 participants representing 9 Agricultural Universities viz.
Acharya N G Ranga Agricultural University, Hyderabad; Indira Gandhi Krishi
Viswavidyalaya, Raipur; Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh; Punjab
Agricultural University, Ludhiana; Sri Venkateswara Veterinary University,
Tirupati; Tamil Nadu Fisheries University, Nagapattinam; University of
Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad; University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore
and Uttar Banga Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Coochbehar , participated in this
programme.
The current batch had a good mix of young faculty representing different
disciplines of Agriculture (52.38%)(31), Veterinary Sciences (7.94%)(5), Fishery
Science (11.11%)(7), Horticulture (6.35%)(4), Sericulture (6.35%)(4), Home
Science (7.94%)(5), Engineering (6.35%)(4) and library science (1.59%0 (1) etc.,
which helped for cross learning and networking.
The composition of participants indicates that all three domains –
Teaching, Research and Extension represented. Of course majority i.e. 76.19%
(48) from teaching, followed by research (17.46%)(11), Extension (1.59%)(1)
24
and others (4.76%)(3). Out of which 49.21% (31 nos) are males and 50.79%
(32) are females.
Keeping the emerging challenges and expectations from the stakeholders
for quality manpower, the competency enhancement at the first level i.e
Agricultural University Faculty, was targeted in this Foundation Course to
nurture the students further in a deemed desired direction. The Foundation
Course focused on developing KSA i.e. Knowledge, Skills and Attitude towards
National Agricultural Research & Education System, Educational Methodology
& Management, Human Resource Management, Research and Project
Management, Extension and Communication Management.
The program encompassed all aspects that a fresh recruit into an
educational environment is expected to be equipped with. There is a wide
range of topics starting from the basics like teaching/learning to the e-learning
practices that can be adopted in the system having immediate relevance to
their job. The participants were engaged mostly through discussions,
demonstrations, personality evaluating analyses.
The programme contents are a carefully chosen mix of education,
research and extension management as the Agricultural University faculty
shoulder teaching, research and extension responsibilities. Apart from these
areas, university rules, financial norms and administrative procedures were
also covered. Specific topics are knit around these major areas which were
covered in about 125 one hour sessions spread over 25 working days.
These sessions were handled by all 27 NAARM faculty and 11 guest
faculty which included the one by Hon’ble DDG.
Significant changes were brought about in this programme from the
earlier one based on the feedback. Skill component was given top priority and
ten afternoons were exclusively devoted for practical sessions on digital
presentation, human resources, micro teaching and data analysis.
Several innovations were introduced in this 2nd FOCFAU to create
rewarding experience for the faculty such as daily yoga, practical sessions, group
seminars, concurrent sessions, poster preparation, including Biometric
Attendance System etc.
Participants got an opportunity to attend a seminar given by Dr
Jenniefer Turner, American Environmental Expert on Global Choke Point:
Water – Energy- Food Confrontations in China, US and India organised by
25
Acharya NG Ranga Agricultural University and Prof Jayashnakar Telangana
State Agricultural University, here in the vicinity.
Day today reflections obtained from participants to understand and
analyze the learning outcomes and to modify the course content accordingly.
The participants visited ICRISAT for latest knowledge and advancements
in agricultural science.
Evaluation of trainees: Formal evaluation of trainees carried out based on
exercises related to Micro teaching, Digital Presentation, Group Seminar,
Personality Development, Team building, Concept Note, Basics of Computers,
Poster. Course Directors Evaluation, Peer Evaluation, On-line examination
including Yoga. In the process they produced different outputs which are
beneficial for their future endeavors. They are
1. Individual profile
2. Micro teaching video
3. Lesson Plan
4. Poster
5. PPT on Group seminar
6. Digital Ouputs
7. Concept Note etc
Trainee committees constituted to organize different activities such as
cultural, literary, sports etc
Participant’s feedback:
