Interpretation of the feedback given by the Students

Feedback from students is an important aspect of institutional improvement – as

recipients/stakeholders in education, their markings are listings of students concerns and an

opportunity for us to focus on necessary improvement.

Our feedback form for a Teacher has 10 criterions for evaluation on a 5 point scale – with 5

points being the highest and one being the lowest. This exercise was conducted in each of the

classes of FY/SY/TY – B.COM, B.Sc and BA. Students have given well placed markings on the

extent to which the course is completed, their perceptions of the quality of teaching received in

terms of clarity and pace. They have given adequate feedback on guidance and support received

by them to meet their needs as learners.

Most of the teachers are given high ratings and the few who are given poor ratings were

asked to improve by the Principal.

On the 17 criterion to be marked on „Facilities and equipment‟ available to students in the

College – we have realised that we need to improve and we plan to work for creating better

facilities for students.

The Management has been made aware of the shortcomings in the facilities and has

promised to look into the matter. Also with the new XII plan funding we will be in a position to

improve them.

The quality of this exercise has been enhanced by explaining to the students the mutual

benefits of this feedback and how they must be careful and just while marking points for mutual

benefit and improvement. We care about what our students think and plan/work towards up-

gradation and value addition.


Annexure 3.1

Best Practice in the College in Research Initiatives

1. Title of the Practice

Rizvi College‟s biannual peer reviewed international Journal titled “International Journal

of Research”.

2. Goal

To enhance the research culture amongst the teachers in the colleges it has been decided

that we should start an International Journal in our College. The aim of this journal is to

provide a platform for researchers, practitioners, academicians and professional from

diverse domains to share their innovative research achievements. The Journal is dedicated

to publish high quality research papers providing meaningful insights into any subject

area of current interest. International Journal of Research provides a platform for

dissemination and publications of your academic work on topics which have substantial

inter disciplinary content both Indian as well as global.

3. The Context

Original research papers, conceptual articles and case studies are invited in the journal,

based on current data and supported by primary/secondary sources. The journal is

designed as per international standards. We went through many journals of standard

reputation and tried to implement the best style in our journal. The major challenge is

publishing and the funding of the journal. Teachers in the college were encouraged to

write research papers. Since it is a Multidisciplinary paper, hence it is required that we

add editors from all the subjects in which we have received response. To maintain good

quality of papers it is required to add Editors from institutes of high repute from all over

India and world. To get recognition we got an ISSN No for the journal. The journal was

initially decided to be annual in Nature but was later due to the good response we

received it was changed to biannual.

4. The Practice

To review the papers submitted for the journal, a Board of Editors consisting of mainly

Heads and Directors of various reputed institutions has been formed. Editors from

International institute of high acclaim have also been included in our journal. Call for

papers are given and submitted papers are bifurcated on the basis of subject. The accepted

papers are then put in various sections as Commerce, Social Sciences, Economics, Social

Sciences and Languages like Hindi, Urdu etc. Each paper has to go through the


plagiarism test. Only those papers which pass through this test are then sent for review to

different editors. The remarks of the editor are forwarded to the authors. Those papers

which are upto the mark are given acceptance through email. They are requested to

subscribe to the journal. This has helped us in partially meeting the cost of the journal. An

index of the selected papers is made.

The in-house editors of the journal then go through each selected paper. These papers are

edited for grammar and spelling errors. Then the papers are put in the format of the

journal. The content of the journal is proof read many times and then the journal is sent

for printing. The DTP of the journal is done. We outsource the DTP and printing of the

papers. Before printing and after DTP once again the full content of the journal is proof

read. The paper and the printing quality are kept of very high. Proper care is taken to keep

the standard of the journal very high. We solicit the feedback of the readers to give their

independent views on the journal. The journal is dispatched through courier to all their

subscribers.

Two issues are published every year. On our college website we have a journal link which

has all the details of the journal. It has details like list of Editors, General Information,

and Guidelines to the author, Subscription detail and Order form. The Abstract of the

selected papers of every issue is also put on the website. The link is updated after every

issue. The journal is publicised in various Conferences, Seminars, and Workshops,

Teachers groups, LinkedIn and various other platforms for wide awareness. The emails of

teachers are collected through various sources and the call of papers is given for each

issue mainly through emails.

5. Evidence of Success

Our journal has got a very good response. For every issue we get more than eighty papers.

We publish only 25 papers and remaining papers are left pending for the next issue. Our

journal is self financed and we also manage to make a modest profit in publishing the

journal. This is just a step to build the image of the Institute and it really helped us in this

endeavor. Due to this exercise we came across great personalities who are experts in their

own field. Some of them are Vice-Chancellors of various Institutes. This helped in

creating a good relation with them. One of them Dr Mohammad Ali Akbar, the Vice-

Chancellor of University of Telangana came from Telangana to give a talk in our college.

Other editors who are Vice-Chancellors like Dr Furqan Qamar, Vice-Chancellor of

Central University of Himachal Pradesh and Dr Indumati, Vice-Chancellor of Davangere

University, Karnataka have also came to our college as Guest of Honor in a two day


SPSS Workshop organized in our College. The letter of understanding which was signed

between Bhartiya Vidyapeeth University and our college is also a result of our association

with the Dr Sachin Vernekar, Director of IMED & Dean Bhartiya Vidyapeeth University

who is one of the Editors of our journal.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The major problem has been finance. We wanted the journal to be self sufficient. Hence

we approached libraries of various colleges. We requested them to subscribe to our

journal. This was not simple; we have to maintain a very good quality of journal. Ours is

a new journal and convincing colleges to subscribe to our journal was not that easy. We

managed to get a lifetime subscription from about eight libraries and yearly subscription

from about thirty libraries. Individual authors whose papers are published are also

requested to subscribe to the journal. Due to these efforts we are able to cross 300

subscriptions in just two years. Our management has also generously sponsored the

printing cost which is the major cost of our journal. We have an excellent journal

committee who always works hard to see that there is no shortcoming in our journal.

Annexure 3.2

Best Practice in the College in Admission and Examination

1. Title of the Practice

Rizvi College‟s “Computerized Online Internal Testing and Admission Process”

2. Goal:- The goal of online admission is to fine tune the admission process and make

available ready database for mining across years.

The goal of online internal testing is to optimize use of technology, reduce time in testing,

saving paper and doing away with tedious evaluation.

3. The Context: - The need to initiate the practice of online admission is to reduce long

hours of waiting in queues for the candidate, saving time and enhance the use of

technology thus making the whole process student friendly and efficient.

There is a greater need for transparency in the admission process. The practice of online

admission has greatly facilitated this is applications invited are processed based in

eligibility criteria and must lists are displayed as per the scheduled dates.

Computerized online testing is also initiated with the need to optimize the use of

upgraded computer and laboratory facilities and deepen the use of technology

infrastructure. Saving time and use of paper minimally is the need of the hour. It has

reduced tedious evaluation avoids replication and helps in saving storage space for

preservation of answer sheets.

4. The Practice: The computerized Admission process was initiated in 2011-12. In this

process, the ward or parent of the candidate has to visit the college and make an

application for the course intended in the set of computers set aside or the purpose. The

applications are processed on the basis of eligibility criteria and admission granted in a

transparent manner. It has resulted in saving time for both students as well as the college.

The practice has led to reduction in the use of paper enabling saving of storage space. It

makes available ready data for I-cards, Roll Call Lists, Scholarships, student progression

and performance.

Online testing for Internal Assessment was introduced in 2011-12 academic year, to

deepen the use of technology and optimize the use of infrastructure, laboratories in the

College.

All Internal Assessment testing is outsourced to an agency called, “Go-To Test”. The

tests are administrated by way of Multiple Choice Questions. The question bank for each

subject in all faculties of Arts, Science and Commerce is developed by the faculty, proof

read in the digitized format and administered in a randomized manner. Each subject has

duration of 10-15 minutes during which the candidate has to complete his test.


Each student is given a login password, with which to access the test. Faculties are

deputed to each class to help students in obtaining the password in case they have

forgotten or not collected it on time.

This practice has resulted in saving assessment time, paper, and also aids our endeavor of

being an eco-friendly practice.

During online admission, few technical glitches arise, e.g. getting their passwords. They

are immediately assisted through help lines, while those who visit college are assisted by

the available staff. No serious limitation was encountered in both the processes.

5. Evidence of Success: The Practice of online admission has resulted in reducing time

decongesting the premises during admissions and delays during the process. It helps in

obviating labour intensive process of scanning forms manually and sorting them.

Errors in submission of forms are have minimized as they are validated online. A virtuous

cycle is created in using admission data for the purpose of Attendance, Roll, I-cards etc.

This has resulted in tremendous staff productivity and decongested the college office.

Minimum man power is used in the admission process.

The practice of online tests has continuously enhanced students‟ confidence in the use of

technology and improved performance in their internal tests.

6. Problems Encountered And Resources Required: One of the observations was a need

for capacity building efforts. There is a need for computer training for all the staff

involved in online admission. Students also need more hands on experience which will

enable them to be quicker in their responses thus saving time & improving their

performances.
