2.6 Innovative processes adopted by the institution in Teaching and Learning:

In an era where quality is the watchword in every arena of life, education is no exception. In keeping with this requirement STIE has devised the ISI model in the teaching-learning process to ensure that every teacher emerging from its portals bears the ISI trademark of quality. The contextualized curriculum detailed in Criterion I is transacted using the ISI model the syntax of which is as follows:

➢ I (INTRODUCTION TO THE CONTENT): Every topic in the curriculum begins with providing information and knowledge to the trainees to introduce them to the content. This is done through faculty lectures, books recommended for additional reference and lecture notes to provide students with a guideline of what has been covered in class. They are also provided with technology based resources like related websites offering advanced information and the personal subject blogs of each faculty member. This allows them to post their queries and views or engage in intellectual deliberation

➢ S (SUPPLEMENTARY ACTIVITIES): This phase aims at offering students a broad VIEW to the different topics of the syllabus so as to promote enrichment of the teaching-learning process, making it an enjoyable experience. At the start of each academic year every faculty member is encouraged to reflect on the diverse activities which could be conducted in the subject assigned to her. This exercise encourages the use of the multisensory approach in transacting the curriculum making it contextualized and multidimensional. The categories of activities included in the plan that ensues are as under.

➢ V (Visits): Students were taken on educational visits to NCPA Art on Coins, India on 29th October 2018 and Kala Ghoda Arts Festival on 7thFebruary,2019 to appreciate the Historical Heritage.

✓ I (Inquiry Based Learning): This is encouraged through the use of co-operative learning techniques, the case-study approach, group discussions, debates and seminar presentations. These techniques serve to garner the critical thinking and logical reasoning skills of students transforming them from passive recipients of knowledge to active participants in the learning process.

✓ E (Experiential Learning): This endeavour ranges from providing students a first-hand encounter with experts coming from various fields of specialization to talk-shows, symposia and panel discussions as well as surveys, community work and personal interviews with academicians. The host of activities help students gain from the rich and relevant knowledge and expertise of these professionals. It also includes events such as tree plantation drives, Participating in inter-collegiate festivals, cultural programmes, enactment of role-plays based on the philosophy of ’Experience is the best teacher’.

✓ W (Workshops): This is based on the principle of ‘Learning by doing’. Workshops are conducted by the faculty and experts to orient students to technical topics in the syllabus such as ‘How to prepare for Teacher Eligibility (TET) and Teacher Aptitude Intelligence Test’, ‘Lesson planning’, ‘Preparing a Blue-Print’, ‘Mindfullness and Developing Emotional Resilience’, ‘Online Tools’ This activity based learning approach culminates in the preparation of projects which empowers students with the confidence of not only mastering the concept but more importantly fosters group learning skills.

➢ INTEGRATION OF THE EXPERIENCES: In the concluding phase all the experiences gathered by the student are consolidated and accommodated in the students’ repertoire of knowledge. This exercise ensures that the teacher trainee is not only well informed about the topics in the syllabus, but instead possesses a broad based comprehension of concepts coming from a gamut of activities and events. This culminates in an all-round development of the personality by catering to development of the cognitive, psychomotor and affective domains. Knowledge gained in each subject is not compartmentalized but instead integrated into the existing database of prior knowledge and experience. Thus, every trainee emerging from STIE goes through the intensive ISI certification process in every teaching-learning transaction.

2.12 How does IQAC Contribute/Monitor/Evaluate the Teaching & Learning processes:

✓ The students’ performance at essays, examinations and class tests is periodically reviewed and analysed at the IQAC meetings. Learners in need of peer assistance and remedial instruction are identified. Tutorials are conducted for those students who consistently show poor performance in a given subject.

✓ Faculty members are constantly encouraged to use participatory and constructivist teaching approaches to enhance the quality of instruction and make learning an enjoyable experience.

✓ The mentor-ward system has been initiated by the IQAC. Each faculty member serves as a mentor to 7 students assigned to her. The mentors guide the students in their academic work as well as assist them with the personal difficulties they may encounter during the course. Each mentor in turn conveys the timely progress of the students in her group to the IQAC.

✓ The staff are empowered to sift their transactions for its ability to satisfy the stated goals and the perceived needs of the teacher-trainees.

✓ The IQAC expects the staff to procure feedback analysis on every activity that is run within the working hours of the academic year.

✓ Inputs from students are sought to prepare the Prospective and Year Plan. They are then presented to the CDC. The CDC resolutions are then presented to the IQAC.

✓ The IQAC members evaluate the milestones documented by the faculty in the proforma prescribed by the UGC for detailing their Academic Performance Index. These are then complied and put forward for their Career Advancement Scheme.

Criterion – VI

6. Governance, Leadership and Management

6.1 State the Vision and Mission of the institution

6.2 Does the Institution have a Management Information System

Yes. The Institution has an Education Management Information System (EMIS). Towards this objective all data and information relating to the academic and administrative aspects of the institution is regularly computerized and documented. In addition, the institution has the following mechanisms in place which act like valves in ensuring smooth passage of information coming into and going out from the institution:

➢ INCOMING INFORMATION is obtained through the online feedback mechanism and can be categorized as under:

1. Feedback obtained from the students on the activities and events both curricular and co-curricular organized by the college as well as assessment of the faculty in terms of their proficiency and efficiency. This is done through the TAQ and Exit Point Questionnaire uploaded on the IQAC website.

2. Feedback from the alumni on the extent to which the institution has contributed to their development and growth. This information constitutes the Alumni Database form.

3. Feedback from parents regarding their satisfaction quotient in terms of the quality of the B.Ed course.

4. Feedback from employers regarding their opinions and ratings of student teacher efficiency, behaviour and value systems. This information composes the Employer Satisfaction Survey.

The data base generated through each of the above is analysed and graphically represented to enable a progressive comparison of institutional growth and development. It also facilitates modification of the existing activities and programmes in keeping with the recommendations of stakeholders.

➢ OUTGOING INFORMATION involves the use of different web spaces and e-resources to create a broad based forum for popularizing the institution, its faculty and programmes.

1. Websites: The College displays its Vision/Mission statements and objectives as well as the credentials and areas of expertise of the faculty on its main website. In addition the institution has created add-on sites on which detailed description of ongoing activities and upcoming events are popularized.

2. Blogs: Each faculty member has a personal subject related blog for the purpose of providing a forum for interaction and discussion of academic issues as well as to enhance the quality of teaching-learning.

3. Annual Quality Assurance Reports uploaded on the institution’s website provide an overall view of achievement of the institution’s goals in keeping with pre-determined objectives for a given academic year. This enables timely quality updates of the gradual and steady ascent of the college on the ladder of progress.

4. E-magazine prepared by the students is sent out to alumni and the extended Teresian family in a bid to stay connected across the globe. It features the highlights of the year’s happenings and projects the future plans of the institution.

Through each source of outgoing information thus, the college seeks to constantly keep its stakeholders well informed of the Institutional progress and seek their constructive suggestions and ideas for improvement.

6.3 Quality improvement strategies adopted by the institution for each of the following:

6.3.1 Curriculum Development

✓ The college follows the curriculum prescribed by the University of Mumbai to which it is affiliated.

✓ One of the staff members Mrs. Reshma Rodrigues was a member of the committee appointed to revise the 2 year B.Ed course which is to be introduced in keeping with NCTE norms (CBCS pattern) and was actively involved in drafting the curriculum for the same. She was also the convener of the committee for the revision of the syllabus for the paper of Assessment for Learning.

✓ All faculty members were appointed on the syllabus revision committees for the different subjects of the 2 year B.Ed course and attended their respective syllabus orientation meetings held by the University.

✓ The focus on the B.Ed curriculum each year is on synchronizing theory with practical real life experiences leading to a default that will reflect the emerging societal concerns and global expectations.

Activities and support from the Parent – Teacher Association

Development programmes for support staff

Initiatives taken by the institution to make the campus eco-friendly

➢ Use of Electricity: Conservation of resources is the guiding principle at STIE. The tube-lights in all the rooms have been replaced with energy-conserving CFL lights. No room (not even the principal’s office) other than the computer laboratory and the conference room have Acs installed. This is a conscious decision. The windows and fans provide sufficient ventilation and light. The college has installed rotating wall fans and additional ceiling fans to ensure better air circulation in the main lecture hall. Students and staff are careful to switch off fans and lights when not in use.

➢ Segregation of Garbage: Organic wastes are segregated and put into a ermin-pit that helps in the creation of compost. This compost is used to enhance the growth of the plants and trees growing around the campus.

➢ Tree Plantation Drive: the college organized a tree plantation drive wherein the teacher trainees planted saplings around the campus. This endeavour served to make the premises eco-friendly and instilled in the students a sense of responsibility toward their role in conserving the environment.

Criterion – VII

7. Innovations and Best Practices

7.1 Innovations introduced during this academic year which have created a positive impact on the functioning of the institution. Give details.

➢ Theme for the Academic Year 2018-19

Peace has always been among humanity's highest values. It is a concept of societal friendship and harmony in the absence of hostility and violence. In the current scenario, The Global security is a delicate balance and it may not take much for it to descend into a global war in a world of 7.5 billion human beings.  It was in keeping with this concern that STIE chose to focus on the theme of ‘Peace’. In a social sense, peace is commonly used to mean a lack of conflict (such as war) and freedom from fear of violence between individuals or heterogeneous groups. Peace is when people are able to resolve their conflicts without violence and can work together to improve the quality of their lives. There are many dimensions of peace; environmental preservation being one of the most important. We can create a positive dynamic by using ecological diplomacy to achieve two desirable goals at the same time - conservation and peace. The broader perspective of peace denotes harmony and mutual give and take. In this regard, activities and events were organized at 4 levels, namely, Community, Curricular, Co-curricular, and Institutional.

7.2 Provide the Action Taken Report (ATR) based on the plan of action decided upon at the

beginning of the year .

In keeping with the plan of action drawn up by the IQAC at the beginning of the academic year the Action Taken Report can be summarized as under:

1) As per the suggestions put forth in point 6 by the experts on our IQAC committee, the faculty are now mindful of procuring immediate, detailed, online feedback all-year-round from the stakeholders of education. The findings are then analysed using multiple perspectives lent by the members of the staff. The findings of these are borne in mind while rescheduling activities for the forthcoming year.

The institute also compiles a group, blind, verbal SWOC from the administrative and support staff.

2) In view of point 5 of the last meeting, faculty members are now being reimbursed for their faculty development activities.

3) Medical practitioners have been invited to provided the teacher trainees with inputs on mental and physical well-being. An optometric evaluation was carried out and our students will undergo a dental check up tomorrow. Efforts are in the pipeline to arrange for a complete health check-up in collaboration with the Lions Club of Mumbai. These outcomes are in keeping with recommendation made in point 7 of the minutes.

4) The college has collaborated with environmental NGOs like RUR, Trailblazers and Worldwide Fund for Nature; the private sector industry with Pidilite; National Agencies like Maharashtra State Commission for Women Empowerment; Universal Computers, a government recognised centre providing the MSCIT certificate course; the Instituteof Distance Education (IDOL), University of Mumbai; National Human Rights Commission (NHRC); Indian Council for Social Sciences (ICSSR) the Career Development Centre offering training in Teacher Eligibility Test. (refer point 8).

5) The members of the faculty are consciously working towards fulfilling the suggestion made in point 9 in the minutes by reviewing the previous SSR and carrying out timely remediation.

6) In connection with the Five Year prospective plan; the college is looking at the possibility of offering the B.Ed, M.Ed course to our future student aspirants. (refer point 10).

7) The college has initiated a platform for schools in the city to document and defend their best practices.

We would like to consider this as our institute's novel, distinctive practice. (Point 8)

The practices showcased are reviewed by a panel of experts in education for its strength and novelty. This year three schools were a judged as winners and were given cash prizes. The cash prize was sponsored by a pharma company in the corporate sector. With this initiative, our institute intends to raise the quality standards of education at school level. It also aims at documenting and disseminating good work done by stand-alone institutions.

7.3 Give two Best Practices of the institution (please see the format in the NAAC Self-study Manuals)

Name of The Practice : - Institute with Distinctive Status Award 2018

Objective

To celebrate Children’s Day with a difference!

Rationale

Children are the reason for which schools exist. The metropolis of Mumbai houses numerous schools that cater to the shades of diversity seen in the city. It Is overwhelming to see how each school aligns itself to its vision and mission philosophies while catering to the requirements of its target group. It is observed that educational managers are engaged all year round in calibrating their methodologies of teaching-learning and community outreach. They aim to achieve maximum effectiveness and raise the efficiency of human and infrastructural resources within the organization. This is what we call the ‘best practices’ of an institution.

However, the efforts of schools go undocumented and unsung as they are not flagged in the sands of time. Very often novel ideas and initiatives get acclaimed only after they have run through several rounds of practice by other who have adopted them. This can lead to plagiarism and fraud in intellectual property ownership. It is for this reason that STIE has taken on this initiative to acclaim schools for ‘daring to be different!’ The purpose is to come together to celebrate, share and account for every spark (idea) that grows into a fire (practice).

Outcomes

1. Unlike institutions of higher education, schools do not have a body that reviews their work to accredit them. At this Award event, the panelists, who were experts in education, reviewed the competition as a means to certify schools that go beyond textbooks and the prescribed curriculum.

2. The event provided schools a platform to announce and showcase their best practices through documentation of how they meaningfully reach out to the schooling community and the geographic location.

3. The event helped nurture research-mindedness in teachers and the desire to publish original papers on their success stories and observations.

4. It acted as a means of rewarding the managements of schools for their involvement in promoting distinctive practices that are need-based.

5. It provided schools an occasion for schools to reflect on whether they have achieved their vision-and-mission goals, and an impetus to raise quality in education.

6. The event highlighted the fact that distinctive practices need not be revolutionary but need only provide directions and avenues for improvement specific to a target.

7. The event provided a platform for networking between STIE and schools within the city.

Those students facing personal and financial problems and in need of counseling are referred to a professional counselor. Formal career guidance is not required as such, since the Institution conducts only the B.Ed course and all the trainees pursue teaching as a career either at school level /college level. However students are guided at the time of campus interviews as to which Institutions they can opt for jobs based on the qualifications they hold and their teaching experience. Further those planning to pursue further studies are given the necessary guidance and information by faculty.
