2.3 Teaching- Learning Process

2.3.1 Student centric methods, such as experiential learning, participative learning and problem

Page 29/109 09-09-2019 09:39:36

 Self Study Report of DNR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

solving methodologies are used for enhancing learning experiences

Response:

Faculty members are shifting the focus over last few years, to a student centric learning process, in place of
conventional teaching-learning process of transferring the knowledge to students, through classroom
lectures. The focus is on knowledge transfer and learning through students active participation and
involvement. The faculty provides a platform to students to explore independently, learn through self study
and guides them to develop effective and lifelong skills.

1) Active learning: The faculty adopt active learning by involving students in the learning process more
directly through the activities like Brain storming, quiz, debate, group discussions, role play, games, model
making, mini projects, presentations, essay writing, elocution, case studies and simulations on technical
content.

2) Collaborative Learning: This is implemented by forming student teams, working jointly to solve a
problem, complete a task/project, participating in debates or design a product.

3) Inquiry-based Learning: Students are encouraged to search and make use of resources beyond the
classroom for investigation of open questions/problems, developing their critical thinking and increasing
understanding levels by conducting review of research papers, surveys, etc.

4) Cooperative Learning: The faculty focus on cooperative learning methodologies. Students work
together to maximize their own and each other’s learning in student chapters and also while performing
various activities using think-pair-share, round table techniques, etc.

5) Problem based Learning: In projects/competitions, participating students are assigned different tasks,
assignments, portfolios, activities in which students engage in complex, challenging problems and
collaboratively work towards their solutions by using inter-disciplinary knowledge such as design and
implementation of Software/Apps, Design and building Robots etc.

6) Experiential Learning: Field based experiential learning like Internship, service learning and class
based experiential learning like role plays, games, case studies, simulation, virtual lab and presentations are
practiced.

7) Project based Learning: Students work on application of theory learned through projects/model
building/simulation in the form of design and fabrication of some systems. It helps to bridge the gap
between theoretical concepts and its practical applications. The effective phases of survey, case study,
implementation, testing and report writing ensure the required project–based learning among the students.
Some subjects are augmented with learning through implementation of mini-projects.

8)Experimental Learning: The faculty members maintain foster learning environment by engaging in
rich experiential content of teaching through experimentation, demonstration, visual aids, periodical
industrial visits, organizing exhibitions as well as presenting papers. Usually, students present seminar on
contemporary topics as well as state-of-the-art technologies.

2.3.4 Innovation and creativity in teaching-learning

Response:

Creativity and innovation bring about interest and motivation to learners as well as trainees, which
eventually lead to learning. Perhaps the simplest way to transform a class in a powerful way is to adopt
active learning strategies that get students working with course material in the classroom either
individually or in groups. Active learning strategies, unlike open class discussions are timed, structured and
designed to give students a chance to learn by acting on a specific piece of content in a specific way.

Students learn material better when they engage it actively rather than absorb it passively. The institute
introduced e-learning platforms to facilitate independent learning where students can access online course
content. Thus e-learning platform bridge the gap between classroom learning and advanced learning.

Teaching–learning is a phenomenon where the teacher and the student are learning. By this method, the
teacher is refining his/ her subject knowledge and effective teaching skills, where as the student finds it
easier to understand the subject and its application. Our teaching faculty‘s endeavor is to follow this
method meticulously so that both the participants get benefit and value addition to their efforts.

Traditional teaching has been replaced with more innovative and creative ways of disseminating, sharing
and facilitating knowledge in students. As both are involved with commitment, through this method, an
interest has been created in the student and the teacher to encourage the student to come out with new and
innovative ideas. This method also motivates both the teacher and the learner.

Page 31/109 09-09-2019 09:39:37

 Self Study Report of DNR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

A teacher finds out innovative learning ways by using teaching aids to encourage the student’s
involvement. In this endeavor, our faculty demonstrate live/practical/ day-to-day example to discuss a
topic, cooped with technology. This teaching-learning innovative method would certainly encourage the
students to raise questions and get answers to their queries with working model development. This kind of
support would certainly enhance their innovative skills and creative ideas.

The following are the technologies and facilities for effective teaching and learning:

All departments are well equipped with ICT-enabled facilities for teaching.
E-Library resources and online content are used by teachers where the courses need updated
information.
Live interaction facility with industrial experts.
Periodical industrial visits.
Industrial internships in renowned industries.
Training programs are provided in every semester on latest trends.

examination marks. Out of the 25 marks for internal, 10 marks for day-to-day work,5 marks for record and
10 marks for internal test conducted by the concerned laboratory teacher.

Continuous assessment in projects:

As part of the internal assessment of projects which are done in Final year, college follows the university
framework.

Project Review Committee (PRC) is formed for every department consisting of Head of the
Department, Project In charge and two senior faculty members.
Students are formed into different groups consisting four or five in each. The groups collect and
review the literature on a topic and submit the title with objective, plan of action for title approval
to PRC.
Project Review Committee assesses and approves projects for each group. After obtaining the
approval of the PRC, each group is allotted to a faculty member as a Guide for the project and can
start the Project work.
Review meetings are conducted for the continuous assessment in project. Review 1 covers abstract
and block diagram, Review 2 covers implementation and Review 3 covers final results with code.
The Institution scrupulously follows the norms set by the University for conducting the internal and
external examinations.
Out of a total of 200 marks for the project work, 60 marks shall be for Internal Evaluation and 140
marks for the End Semester Examination.

2.5.2 Mechanism of internal assessment is transparent and robust in terms of frequency and variety

examinations which are held twice a semester. Each and every mid examination is focused on
attaining the course outcomes. Mid examinations include Descriptive, Online (Quiz) and
Assignment.
Performance in End Semester Examinations: End Semester examinations is a metric for evaluating
whether all the Course outcomes are attained or not. It is expected that a student should score at
least 40% of Maximum marks of the course for the attainment of course outcomes.
Laboratory Tests: Day to day evaluation of student’s performance in the laboratories with respect
to conduct of various experiments is also taken as criterion for attainment of course outcomes.
Project Evaluation: Evaluation of the student based on the project work is also taken as an
important criterion for attainment of course outcomes.

Indirect Assessment Tools:

Program Exit Survey: Feedback from the students in the form of Program Exit Survey is conducted
at the end of B.Tech program to analyze all the program outcomes.
Exit Survey on Program Specific Outcomes: This survey is also conducted at the end of B.Tech
program to analyze all the program specific outcomes.

Mapping of the COs, POs and PSOs is done in strict compliance with the suggestions given by IQAC. The
creation of a programme mapping allows the faculty to have a clear overall picture of the outcomes.
Programme mapping can help the students to understand how far they have been able to achieve the
programme outcomes and it also helps them to do some introspection with regard to their performance. It
helps the faculty to understand the gaps in the curriculum and suggest remedial measures.

1. Weekly Test System:

The institute believes in the process of continuous assessment and evaluation of the students. As per the
university norms the institute was conducting two mid-term examinations for every subject. As the
students were acquiring less marks, IQAC decided to conduct remedial classes and weekly tests to improve
the performance in the end examinations. In this process the IQAC is effectively pursues the conduction of
weekly tests and its results.

2. Project based assignments:

DNRCET initiated Project based assignments as a part of encouraging the participative learning
recommended by IQAC. Students apply their knowledge on prototype design to improve their problem
solving methodologies by experiential learning. This method inspires students to obtain deeper knowledge
of the subjects. There is a fair chance of retaining the knowledge gained through this method rather than
through traditional textbook- centered learning. As it combines team- based and independent work,
students become self driven and confident. DNRCET Students developed prototypes, participated in Smart
India Hackthon 2017 and Smart India Hackthon 2018 conducted by MHRD, New Delhi. The departments
are regularly conducting technical symposiums like AVISHKAR, ALOKA, ENCORE, AVANI,

7.2 Best Practices

7.2.1 Describe at least two institutional best practices (as per NAAC Format)

Response:

DIYA – Light for Life (Student voluntary program)

Objectives of the program:

To help the poor and needy people.

Providing basic needs to the homes of disabled, orphanages& old age homes.
Conducting cultural and literary competitions among the children in the orphanage homes to
develop the sense of belongingness with the society.
To develop the sense of social responsibility in every young mind.
To inculcate the noble qualities and develop the organizing skills among the students.

The context:

DIYA –Light for Life (DIYA an acronym for DNR Irised Youth Association) is a student voluntary
organization at DNRCET initiated with the motto of helping the poor and needy people. Every person does
have a kind heart, but he/she does not know about the kindness that can show to others unless experiences
a chance. To do social work like helping others we do not need much money rather there is need of
dedication to help needy people.

Page 95/109 09-09-2019 09:40:01

 Self Study Report of DNR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

The Practice:

Orphanage home, Bhimavaram.
Provided ceiling fans, 25 kgs rice bags-4, blankets and towels to the Gandi Old-age Aasramam at
Taderu, Bhimavaram.
Rupees 7500 donated to the MRK Poly Technic student who met with an accident.
Students participating in these programs earn organizing skills and learnt about the critical
situations in which people in orphanages are encountering.
They also understand how to alleviate their sufferings.

Problems encountered and resources required:

Fund collection is a challenging task to the students as the need is like ocean in size.
Students lose valuable classes during their attendance at community supporting camps.

Best Practice – II

Title: Employability Enhancement:

Objective of the Practice:

The objective of this practice is to focus on skill development and career paths for the young engineering
graduates for business, industry and self employment.

To develop and maintain a highly skilled, employment – ready workforce that supports and
enhances the economic health of every individual student.
To train the students in the field of English communication skills, soft skills, inter personal and
intra personal skills and preparing them to work with teams in MNCs.
To develop a best-in-class learning management system and placement and tracking mechanism.

The Context:

The students are from vernacular back grounds that have come from villages. It is necessary to impart
required skills for employability. The Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) has come into existence

Page 96/109 09-09-2019 09:40:01

 Self Study Report of DNR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

after bifurcation. The immediate necessity for industrialization is the manpower development. In the
process the GoAP gave high priority for skills development through establishing Andhra Pradesh State
Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC). The DNRCET, Bhimavaram Campus has been selected as a
technical Skill Development Institute (t-SDI). The DNRCET is providing infrastructure in laboratories by
adopting latest technologies in engineering design to serve the needs of various industrial units, training the
students to improve employability, placement of students and enable the students to compete at the
national and international level employment with better remuneration and professional group.

Making the students, from rural background, come out of their mother tongue influence is a very big
challenge. Improvement of communication skills in English language is a pre - requisite in the present
multi - cultural corporate world.

The Practice

To make qualitative improvements in imparting technical education, students are given

experimental training in laboratories with latest technologies.
The institution has provided 5 labs for training, viz.,
The computer based training lab (CBT) is providing audio – visual classes, power point
presentations and video classes about all five labs, a detailed video explanation on every
experiment followed by a test on that experiment. Training will be given to each student in
the basic, expert and master levels.
Electrical home lab - the students are trained in home wiring and Industrial wiring,
Electrical equipment installation and safety measures.
Electronics home lab - the students are trained for basic operations & minor repairs of
home appliances and utilization.
Electronics office lab through which students get training on corporate office equipments
installation, utilization and minor repairs of printers, scanners, computers, Intercoms etc.,
R&AC Lab - in this lab student are trained to create basic tools, awareness of air
conditioning and refrigeration systems, their utilization and minor repairs.

In addition to the above training from the laboratories, special slots allotted for building English
communication skills through English communication skills lab.
Soft skills by expert trainers in the campus for enhancing public speaking skills, confidence
building, handling critical situations, positive thinking, time management and presentation skills.
Group discussion, debate, just a minute, essay writing, storytelling, mock - interviews and also
competitions conducted regularly to help students understand and evaluate real time issues and
handle effectively the problems that they face in day to day life.

Evidence of success:

Implementation of APSSDC-SIEMENS project in DNRCET has resulted in high success in the

form of increase in number of students with obligatory industrial skills.
During the span of last 2 years almost 2206 students got training from this project. They are:

223 Engineering students from DNRCET

521 DNR Polytechnic students
78 Students from DNR English medium school
326 Social Welfare Students

Page 97/109 09-09-2019 09:40:01

 Self Study Report of DNR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

526 Students of other Polytechnics

This project has evidenced a big success with a huge number of students who got training from this
project, enhanced their English communication skills, soft skills and their life skills, increased their
self confidence, and learnt corporate etiquettes.
Recently a few Polytechnic students from DNRCET are hired by a reputed MNC, and some more
students are waiting for offer letters.

Problems encountered & resources required:

1.Many students are from villages with poor communication skills and lack of industrial knowledge
becomes a tough job to the faculty to mobilize and create inertest.
2.Some students, especially girl students from rural back ground, are having least awareness. Due to
this they are not serious during the training period.

7.3 Institutional Distinctiveness

7.3.1 Describe/Explain the performance of the institution in one area distinctive to its vision, priority
and thrust

Response:

DNRCET is provided with a Technical Skill Development Institute. It is used to promote skill-
development & entrepreneurship in and around the rural areas of DNRCET. It is also serving as an
important task of providing high quality skilled manpower as part of the "Knowledge and Skills Mission"
of Government of A.P.As per some estimates, Andhra Pradesh will face an incremental Human resources
requirement of approximately ten million skilled workers from 2012 till 2022, across the high-priority and
emerging sectors. Thus the main objective of the program is to implement a structured and pragmatic
solution to skill & up skill the workforce in and around the rural areas of DNRCET and to increase
employability, and promote entrepreneurship in sync with Industrial growth.

Page 98/109 09-09-2019 09:40:01

 Self Study Report of DNR COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

The institution has provided five labs for training, viz.,

The computer based training lab (CBT)

Electrical home lab
Electronics home lab.
Electronics office lab
R&AC Lab

To facilitate the above, the target population has been divided into seven segments, viz.: Drop outs,
Engineering skills, degree & PG, in-trade services, agriculture & allied, crafts, entrepreneurship
development. Separate programmes will be designed for each segment. A hybrid model where t-SDI
carries out its own programmes as well as value-adds & collates the training being done by other
departments is being adopted by the corporation to start with. Some unique & best of class training
programmes like Siemens Centers of Excellence Clusters, Capital Area Skilling, Train the Trainer, etc. are
part of the whole gamut of trainings to be offered at different levels. In addition to the practice training
offered at these t-SDI’s, it is considered that the course would be more effective and fruitful if relevant
material related to the course is also provided to the participants for revision and ready-reference.
Consequently, an attempt was made to create the requisite content by the experienced faculty and the
trainers. t-SDI is staffed with best of talent in this sector & will partner with leading training providers &
industry to carry out the training programmes. It aims to develop a best-in-class learning management
system and placement and tracking mechanism. Ultimately, it aims to be among the best training provider
organizations in the state.
