Innovative teaching methodologies help faculty to deliver their lectures in a faster and efficient manner thereby allowing the students to keep abreast of technological advancements. In addition, innovative teaching aids also impart rationale thinking and self-sufficient thought process in the mindsets of students by making them more proactive. Education is a very powerful instrument for social change and transformation. Innovative practices are the only way to enhance the quality of our education. In addition to the conventional teaching methodologies, the college has adopted pedagogical methodologies such as participatory learning, experiential learning, personalized learning, and problem-solving for enhancing the learning levels of the students by adhering to the academic calendar of the college which is prepared well in advance. These methodologies make sure that the students are dynamic participants rather than passive listeners in the teaching learning process. In pursuit of the provisions of the academic calendar, the faculty members prepare their teaching plans and submit the same to their respective Head of the Department for approval. Every effort is made to follow the academic calendar as well as teaching plans.
The Innovative practices adopted by the department are as follows:
1. INSTRUCTIONAL DELIVERY
2. MULTIMEDIA LEARNING
3. WIT AND WIL
4. EACH ONE TEACH ONE
5. EXPERIMENTIAL LEARNING
6. EMPLOYABILITY TRAINING
7. SMALL GROUP LEARNING
8. EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING
9. PERSONALIZED LEARNING
10. ONLINE LEARNING PLATFORMS

In order to make teaching and learning process more effective, the Faculty Member is taking care of prescribed time available for the corresponding semester in accordance with academic calendar. The theory lectures and practical's are planned by the faculty as per the weightage of the topics in curriculum design. The handouts are given to the students, so that students come to the lecture with prerequisite knowledge about the topic. The Faculty Member makes the connection between theory classes and practical's in way that the student can understand the application of theoretical concept in real world situation.

Assignments are given for courses which provides an opportunity for the students to further dig deeper into the content and reflect on the material. These are evaluated and returned to the students so that they get feedback on what they have understood and what they have not understood properly.

Students do projects pertaining to their area of interest in their respective discipline and have to submit a report for which assessment will be made both internally and externally. Besides they also have to appear for Project viva-voce examination where students will be evaluated by an external examiner. Students perform the literature review of the specified topic, formulate the problem, adopt certain methodologies and examine the projects requirements and constraints to implement the project ethically and it also helps them to understand the their ability in accomplishing targets Students apply the knowledge of all related courses in providing suitable solutions to managerial problems. During the implementation, the students perform analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions. The progress of the project is presented by the students. At the end of the project the students prepare and submit the report. This helps the students to communicate effectively and to present ideas clearly in both the written and oral forms as well as enable them to meet the challenges ahead.

The Faculty Member will deliver some concepts with the aid of Software tools. These learning tools play vital role in delivering subject knowledge. The students can identify the key points of presentation easy way. Live demonstration can be an effective tool to present material in classroom and encourage student learning. Multimedia combines basic types of media into learning environment such as text, audio, video and graphics thus providing a powerful tool for teaching. This allows the students to pay more attention towards the concepts. It also helps the students to think and analyze the concepts in a better way. Hence teachers select the mode of using video lectures as the preliminary process of learning.

WIT & WIL, acronym for “Why am I Teaching What I am Teaching” from Teacher’s perspective and “Why am I Learning What I am Learning” from student’s perspective, is one such initiative that has been embedded into the Teaching-Learning process, WIT & WIL has a structured framework and to ensure that the course outcomes are met, since learning occurs not by recording information but by interpreting it. It helps students to structure and process knowledge and in turn makes them constructors of knowledge. WIT & WIL formats also provide ample scope for modern education technologies and active teaching methods, such as the use of audio-visual content, slideshows, case studies, and storytelling through real-world examples
The mechanism of documenting WIT & WIL is also in line with the Bloom’s Taxonomy, wherein the students are driven from Lower Order Thinking skills (LOT) to Higher Order Thinking skills (HOT) and develop an innate understanding and appreciation of the subject towards the real-world scenario.
Using Innovative methods of teaching is a crucial skill for faculty members, innovative teaching methods and approaches can significantly enhance the student learning process. The faculty members are get to know the experiment and practice the most relevant innovative teaching methods, such as Project based learning, non-formal education, outdoors education, new technologies. The faculty members are encouraged to participate in FDP (Faculty Development Program) both Online and Offline, Short term Training conducted by National Institute of Technical Teacher’s Training and Research (NITTR), Workshop conducted by IIT Bombay Remote Centre. Faculty members are encouraged to enroll in Coursera to build skills on New Technologies. The training provides Faculty members inputs on process and practice of personal development, communication and inter-personal skills, creativity, problem solving so that they can act as resource person in guiding and motivating students to take up their study in the right way.

Each-one Teach-one’ Program to help the academically and technically junior students, to catch up with their colleagues, the ‘Each-one Teach-one’ program has been successfully operational in the department and has also been introduced at the under-graduate level very successfully. In this scheme, the senior classes give awareness to students and help them in learning, under the supervision of teachers. In this connection the CSE Department had taken an initiative the same to improve the student skill set and this methodology helps the students to improve their presentation, communication skills, and knowledge levels in the concepts by self-preparation and presentation. It helps the students to enrich themselves towards self-learning and employability.

Experimental learning is the process of learning through practice. To potentially conceptualize theoretical subjects, faculty members correlate the concepts learned in the theory class with the practical laboratory classes. Demonstration classes are conducted for the students which give an insight into the practical concepts in theory courses.

In view of the employability of the students, Department of Computer Science & Engineering has been providing the technical and soft skills training. The training is conducted by internal and external faculty which comprises technical and soft skills. Before commencing the training, Internal Training Team will assess the students’ technical skills and based on the feedback, the team will classify the students into various categories like domain-specific, technology-specific and also with an extent of student’s interest Students are the first and foremost stakeholders of the college. The teaching learning process is student centric by default and sufficient space is provided for that in the academic plan. Student centric teaching methods such as Guest Lectures, Brain-storming activities like Case study, Management Games, Seminars, Conferences and Workshops are employed to make teaching learning more effective. Students can practice and improve their industry skills while also learning how to work. Not only does this give individuals an edge over other candidates when applying for jobs, it also prepares them for what to expect in their field and increases confidence in their work. The college constantly motivates the students to do involve in such activities so that after the trainings attended, they are able to do the projects in various domains, present the innovative papers in conferences, etc

During the period of study, the students are encouraged to take an active participation in management games, case studies and group discussions through which the managerial qualities, decision making and forward planning are exposed. These events promote leadership qualities in the students. It also inculcates the spirit of team work among the students.

Role Play is a technique that allows students to explore realistic situations by interacting with other people in a managed way in order to develop experience and trail different strategies in a supported environment. Role Play is an educational technique in which people spontaneously act-out problems of human relations and analyze the enactment with the help of other role players and observers. Role playing is effective when the topic involves person to person communication or interactions. Role play can allow everyone to participate.

The Teacher begins with a specific question, and give students time to individually think about an answer, and document their responses on their own, either written or in pictures. Students can be given 1-3 minutes for this part of the exercise.

Students now get into pairs. The Teacher decides beforehand whether to assign pairs or let students choose their own partners. The Teacher will be keen when pairing to think of student strengths and their personalities. The Teacher asks the students to share what they came up with, with their partners and discuss. The Teacher provides questions for the students to ask one another. This part of the activity will take at least 5 minutes.

For this part, come back together as a class and have a whole class discussion. The Teacher can either choose to have one person from each pair share with the class, or the discussion can be more open. Students can also share with the class what their partner said.

It helps students to think, identify the technical terminologies in the subject and recollect the definition of the technical terms. It is implemented by populating with a set relevant to the words (terms) that should be identified. Each term can be identified with a set of images. The students should identify the images and connect those to find the technical term. It motivates the students to build oral communication skills.

Listening to any prominent personality in any seminar or workshop helps the student to gain information about their way of work or how things take place. It helps to know about professional colleges and new discoveries in their field.

Presenting a paper in conference helps the student to gain soft skills which will be valuable in their academic career. It also helps them to explore science at a deeper level. Presenting a poster helps the student to build their skills that will be useful in future.

Experiential learning aims to develop knowledge and skills through experience. Learning is enhanced when students are given the opportunity to operate outside of their own perceived comfort zones. It provides opportunities for students to engage themselves in an intellectual and creative manner. The college practices experiential learning activities such as Industrial Visit, Internship, In-Plant Training, Field Work and Summer/Winter Training, which serve an excellent combination of learning, understanding, doing and reflection.

Experiential learning makes teaching more effective as the learning outcomes are flexible and open. The college gives priority to the development of the students outside the classroom through co-curricular, extra-curricular and field-based activities. Students are encouraged to participate in technical programs such as Symposium, Paper Presentation, Software Contest, Smart India Hackathon, Project Expo, Technical Quiz etc., and extracurricular activities such as Sports, General Competitions etc., which are organized at the state , national and international levels.

Personalized learning aims to customize learning for each student’s strengths, needs, skills, interests, talents and passion. It allows students to learn at their own pace and encourages their self-assessment. Personalized learning builds stronger relationships between students and teachers. Teachers encourage students by providing the motivation needed to take charge of their own learning.

The college adopts online learning platforms such as Google Classroom and Microsoft Teams for online teaching learning, streamlining assignments and fostering communication. All departments have introduced online courses in order to make the teaching learning process innovative and effective. Course materials, Question bank, Multiple choice questions with solutions are uploaded on the website and proper guidance is given to students to improve their performance.

Co-curricular refers to activities, programs, and learning experiences that complement, in some way, what students are learning in College, experiences that are connected to or mirror the academic curriculum. Co-curricular activities are typically, but not always, defined by their separation from academic courses.

Extra Academic Activity (EAA) are those that fall outside the realm of the normal curriculum of College or university education, performed by students and Faculties.

In our college we use to celebrate College day at the end of the year. College day which includes various events like dance programmes, Singing and dramas and Instrumental music. Students will use the platform to showcase their talents. Students relax themselves from Academic activities.
The colleges can mold the students holistically by exposing them to an array of activities along with academics. Cultural activities play a key role in the overall personality development of students. Different types of cultural activities can give different exposure to students. These instill confidence in students and foster a better understanding of the surroundings. The cultural activities also instill life skills and social skills in the students.
