30. 10. Facilitate Case Study Approach
Case study approach has been recognized as one of
the powerful tools of teaching-learning in different
disciplines today.
Many universities do not solicit people for teaching
learning, if they have not developed their own case
studies for teaching-learning facilitation.
This is an areas in which our higher education has
been lagging behind compared to that of European
and American way of teaching learning.
Case study approach does not only improve
communication skills, but also improves one’s
critico-analytical thinking.

31. 11. Facilitate Effective Presentation
Communication will improve if we put our
graduates in more presentation and discussion
works.
Presentations can be facilitated in individual as well
as group forms.
Presentation should be supported with adequate
interactive materials and adequate communication
skills.
Presentation serves as a venue to sell the graduate
competence.
Use ppt slides, flip charts, metacards, and placards
