4. The Practice: It is the learner centric approach, hence the Teacher facilitates the learning process and the students get motivated and learn by themselves. With this active learning each and every students participate in learning process. The students are well motivated by the following practices.  Semester Clear Certificates are given to students who are clearing all subjects in a single sitting.  Students who are scoring highest percentage in the class is awarded with a gold ring worth Rs.7000/ Students who have published papers in reputed journals are awarded with a cash prize Rs.2500/-

The faculty member handling these pedagogic techniques should have though knowledge on it. The faculty has to prepare Unit Plan, Session Objectives and Session Plan. The unit plan is based on syllabus. The Unit Plan specifies the delivery plan for the entire course. It helps to divide the course into multiple sessions. The session plan enables both the leaner and the Faculty to blend various Pedagogic techniques. The session objective identifies the objective of each session. In addition to all t he above, the faculty has to prepare Session Inputs. Session inputs provide the essential technical information on the topic. It is the guideline to explain the concept more efficiently and effectively. The session input should map exactly to that of the session plan.

5. Evidence of Success: 34 faculties got trained with this workshop. Out of 34, twenty four faculties implemented for one complete semester for all 5 units and rest other partially implemented for one and half units. Out of 24 faculties 3 members got 100% in the Anna University results and 14 members showed improvement in the University results comparative with the previous Anna University results.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources required: It was a great challenge in generating resources and teachers support. Teachers and the learners were not ready to accept these pedagogic techniques. It took great time for the Faculties to generate resource (Session Input). Faculty has to plan and deliver in a structured uniform approach to conduct sessions.

The projects are evaluated and assessd by subject experts both external and internal through presentation and viva voce and the marks are awarded. Project work is linked very tightly to subject objectives, modeling, analysis, design and implementation. Each project is supervised by a senior faculty depending upon the area of specialization and the progress of work is monitored regularly by a departmental Project Review Committee. The final year project is carried-out under the guidance of faculty member and also the project guide in the industry and other agencies. Our students have exhibited a high degree of innovation, commitment and team work in executing the project work.

Weakness: 

Lack of placement in Electronics & communication Core Companies



No undergoing funded Projects in the department



We are yet to establishing a Research & Development centre in the department

Opportunities: 

Placement and Training Programmes through SMART, LSE have been conducted in regular time table.



24 X 7 Wi-Fi Internet facility are made available.



Memory Mapping Programme to improve memory of the students.



Facilitating students with off-campus recruitment

with a tie-up with VIT

University,vellore 

The college has various committees such as Driving club, sports and games committee, Entrepreneurship Development cell, Economically Weaker section cell to help and provide opportunities to the students.

Challenges:  Our students are from rural background hence they face challenge in attending interview.  To improve the overall result to around 90 %.  To place minimum of 75% of students, in core and MNC‟s within 2014

Annexure – XXVII: Details of Wipro Misssion 10X teaching methods Wipro Mission 10X Faculty Empowerment programme Mission10X was launched by M/s. Wipro Ltd., on September 5, 2007 to address the challenges of employability in engineering education. The key task was to develop a sustainable model to enhance the quality of engineering education in India. Though students are the end beneficiaries, it is not a feasible option to directly target them since this exercise would then have to be repeated year after year on new batches of students and would not be a viable solution. It was in this context Mission10X adopted an innovative three-pronged approach on empowering faculty, developing transformative academic leaders and leveraging technology. Together, these three initiatives result in helping build institutions which are on par with the best in the world. Out of 128 faculties 34 got trained with this regular workshop and 74 through Aarambh programme and the remaining are planning to attend the work shop. All the trained faculties have implemented Mission 10X in one subject of the semester and the University results have improved significantly. The teaching methods adopted to improve student learning. 1. Power point presentation. 2. Video presentation. 3. Self learning 4. Crossword (Puzzle) 5. Quiz 6. Analogy 7. Animated explanation of concepts 8. Brain storming 9. Pick an answer 10. Demonstration 11. Case study 12. Role play 13. Other Innovative teaching methods.
