Here is an overview of the various effective teaching methods and strategies that our faculty members follow to enrich our students’ learning experience.
The concept of conducting an initial lecture referred to as the "Zero lecture" involves providing students with an overview of the core content of the subject being taught. During this lecture, the students gain an understanding of the subject's objectives and the expected outcomes of the course. Additionally, they are made aware of the program outcomes and specific achievements they can expect to attain as the course progresses in the near future.
We deliver subject-based lectures to give a strong overview of the topic being taught. Sometimes we give a short presentation while delivering lectures to better equip students with the topic. At the end of the classroom lectures, we invite students to ask questions and share their ideas and doubts. This method of teaching is impactful and engaging.
In problem-based learning, students are presented with complex real-world problems and are asked to come up with potential solutions to solve them. As this method of learning is often group-oriented, students are asked to work in groups. This helps in developing a teamwork spirit.
Students work on extended projects that involve research, analysis, and presentation. It encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and independent learning. Students typically collaborate in groups and may present their projects to the class or submit a final report.
Apart from traditional teaching which confines within a classroom, we deliver world-class education at the doorstep of learners through online education. Our e-materials and live and recorded videos accelerate and enhance their self-learning process.
Particularly relevant in science, engineering, and other hands-on disciplines; students perform experiments, conduct research, or engage in practical exercises. Professors provide guidance and supervision to enhance practical skills and understanding.
We utilize technology tools and platforms to enhance teaching and learning. Online learning management systems (LMS) may be used for course delivery, assignment submission, and communication. Multimedia resources, virtual simulations, and online discussions are employed to support learning objectives.
Professors provide personalized attention, mentorship, and guidance to students. Tailored instruction and additional support are offered to help students succeed academically.
Assessments may include quizzes, exams, essays, presentations, and projects. Professors provide constructive feedback to help students improve their knowledge and skills.
We often organize seminars/conferences/webinars and workshops etc. and invite guest or eminent speakers to give lectures on specific topics. This tends to be an open discussion and students are welcome to ask questions and share their views regarding the topic.
