ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES- OUR OBJECTIVE
Classroom Teaching though considered traditional is still perhaps the best method of communicating with students. The gestures, body language and facial expressions of an instructor influences a student’s mind. It allows a student to connect to the teacher in real time. However, class room teaching can be improvised innovatively. This is what the Department of History aspires to achieve through seminars, certificate courses, use of audio-visual medium and group discussions.
- The Department organises special lectures by renowned teachers who can share their knowledge with students on subjects that are an integral part of their syllabus.
- The faculty members have been involved in preparing students for competitive examinations through a course which covers subjects related to the History syllabus and was designed by the Department of Economics entitled ‘Crack the Civil Service.’
- The Department believes in providing opportunities to the students to interact directly with experienced archaeologists who can not only share their expertise in skill development but provide guidance to students on application-based subjects such as archaeology or museology. It is to this end that a seminar was organised on ‘A Study of Museums and Archaeology: A Case study of Moghalmari,’ on 3.2.24.
- Audio visual medium is used in the class for displays of ppt and maps.
- Group Discussions and Peer Learning.
Outcome:
Class room teaching provides the students with in-depth knowledge of the subject that is taught within the purview of the syllabus and outside. The Invited Talks by renowned scholars can augment individual student’s interest in the subject and promote better engagement thereby making classroom teaching more interesting, interactive and fruitful. On the other hand, Audio-visual medium of instructions in classrooms is a more engaging method of conveying information.
