What are the challenges you faced/ are facing to uplift the quality of education in your department?

"The biggest challenge of today's education quality is to recognize the difference between learning and accepting"

The biggest challenge of today's education quality is to recognize the difference between learning and accepting; children start their study but do not understand it properly and then forget the difference between how they learn and how much duration of time they take to learn. So bridging this gap and educating those students in the right way is a challenge facing the department.

What are your views on the placements and higher education about the students from your department or how does your department prepare students for Higher education?

"We can also check and implement some ideas to bring them forward"

It has been found in research that one in three interns do not work, it can be attributed to any reason such as they do not want to work, lack of skills, or do not know what to do. The deficiency can be overcome by conducting time-to-time competitions among the students or by checking in which areas they are interested and in which areas they are more interested. We can also check and implement some ideas to bring them forward.

How do you try to bring in a practical approach towards subjects and make it industry oriented?

"We invite smart people from the industry to do workshops with our students and teaching staff"

Practical skills of education can train their students and gain industry focus. Being industry-focused means two things: keeping up with the industry and involving the industry. In addition to keeping up with current trends and technologies and implementing these into daily classes, we invite smart people from the industry to do workshops with our students and teaching staff. By doing so, we get fresh ideas and inspiration to improve the practices of the classroom.

How do you tend to establish healthy relations with the students and fellow faculty?

"Look to create open connections with your fellow faculty, not transactional ones"

To create a healthy relationship with Students we should believe in 1 on 1 interaction with them. It is helpful for them, especially those who are struggling with behavioral issues. We should be a part of their events and listen to their ideas and views also. For our fellow faculty, No one likes insincere behavior. When you interrelate with a coworker, be honest. Look to create open connections with your fellow faculty, not transactional ones. This will show that we are invested in the relationship.

How do you strategize the curriculum and how often does it get updated to make it befitting for the students?

"We should strategize the curriculum in the formative and summative way using ongoing feedback from students"

As faculty, we should strategize the curriculum in formative and summative ways using ongoing feedback from students. So it will be easy to improve the technique of teaching. We can also improve the strategies by the answer of following questions such as:

  • What do we expect our students to learn?
  • How will we know they are learning?
  • What is the output of their assessment analysis?

What valuable advice would you like to the students for them to have a prosperous career ahead?

"Career should always be an incremental graph, not a stagnant one"

Never be yourself. Being yourself is a myth. Always try to better yourself. Make yourself worthy of your success. If you're too comfortable in your job or your career, you won't think of setting new goals. Challenge yourself, every single day. A career should always be an incremental graph, not a stagnant one. So does your life. Grow every day.
