The document discusses various ways that faculty can contribute to student enrichment. It identifies areas such as responsibility, investment in learning, developing good habits, and gaining proficiency. It provides suggestions for faculty like using modern teaching tools, providing more hands-on learning, and assessing students based on competency levels. The document also discusses how faculty can help students develop accountability, responsibility, improvement, and leadership skills. It emphasizes the importance of student-faculty interaction and giving students industry-relevant training and experiences to enrich their learning.

1. Faculty Contribution Towards
Student Enrichment
By,

Asst. Professor – ECE - RMKCET

3. Student Enrichment Areas
• Responsibility and Accountability
– Students their own progress toward meeting those rshould be
accountable for knowing and fulfilling graduation requirements,
monitoring equirements, and knowing and observing academic policies
and procedures
• Investment & Improvement
– investing the time and resources necessary to get a good education as
well as improving their level of performance continuously
• Good Habits
– developing and practicing of good habits of discipline, courtesy, civility
and academic decorum
• Proficiency
– gaining and maintaining proficiency in the skills that are a gateway to
success in their area of interest

4. Student Enrichment Areas
• Involvement in Learning
– being extensively involved or engaged in learning, both inside and
outside the classroom
• Community
– being good citizens of the academic community, inclusive of
communicating and working well with faculty and pears
• Pro-activism and Initiative
– developing and practicing of the habit of setting, designing a plan for
achieving, and achieving goals
• Leadership
– realizing and tapping into the potential to take charge and guide
others

5. Reason for Lack of Involvement in
Learning
• Outdated learning and exam culture
– Faculties may use a modern teaching learning tools
(Presentations, Animations, Videos, Simulations, Etc)
• More Theory and Less Practice
– Faculties may use the online simulation tools to visualize the
concepts
– Websites like https://circuits.io/, https://phet.colorado.edu
• Treating all the students with equal competency levels
– Assessment should be given based on the students
competency levels.
– This will make to students to believe that their efforts will
lead them to success

7. Reason for Lack of Responsibility and
Accountability
• Lack of responsibility may cause from various
reasons ranging from simple laziness or a fear
of failure, through to a sense of feeling
overwhelmed by the scale of a problem or a
situation.
• One place to start is creating a classroom
atmosphere that is conducive to accountability
and responsible learning
– Formation of peer groups during revision periods
– Assigning responsibilities to a student and
rewarding them on success or Motivating them on
failure

8. Reasons for lack of Investment &
Improvement
• Students are not aware about the resources for
quality education. Hence they end up in
wasting time in search for quality education
– Faculties may provide a repository of education
resources for the concerned course
– Investment of time for learning can be increased by
attending the summer schools and winter schools
conducted by IIT’s and NIT’s
– Encouraging students to host educational blogs and
video channels of their interest. This makes them to
go in search for new content and update them
selves

9. Inculcating Good Habits
• Faculties may contribute in inculcating the good
habits by
– Organizing Social awareness programs Lead by
students
– NSS , NCC and YRC kind of associations and activities
– Motivating the students to help others (Seniors
taking classes to Juniors during Exam Preparations)
– Providing Outdoor educations on risk management
and emergency management

10. Inculcating engineering habits of mind

11. Enrichment on Proficiency
• The Engineering and Design industry in India wants
the graduating engineers to be industry ready. The
industry needs versatility- people with general
engineering skills and exposure to domain
knowledge. At present these needs are not
addressed.
– Students can be grouped as per their area of interest in
the third year of study
– Separate Engineering Proficiency Program Structure can
be framed to train the students to become professionals
– Students can given a problem statement of their interest
and to do project right from their third year of study

12. Relationship between Students and
faculties
• Encouraging students to share their concerns with
faculty members can give students a different 'take' on
a problem.
• Not only should students be encouraged to ask faculty
for general scholastic advice, but they also should learn
how faculty became invested in their particular areas
of expertise
• To build a good relationship with a faculty member, a
student should demonstrate that learning, rather than
arguing for a better grade,ted in their particular areas
of expertise
• both the frequency and the nature of student-faculty
interaction combined have the greatest impact,

13. Other enrichments to the students
• Assistance for local, regional and national engineering
competitions.
• Sponsorship of campus programs for professional
networking.
• Exposure to engineering professionals and peers at other
colleges.
• Recognition of student academic achievement.
• Financial assistance for chapter meetings and local,
regional or national conferences.
• Partial reimbursement for engineering students to attend
cultural events.
• Technological improvements for student chapter offices.
