Innovation in Teaching Learning Process

Type of Innovation in Teaching & Learning Process The Objective of Innovation Specific Results Observed
Learning with technology involving creation of YouTube channel YouTube channels has become one of the teaching tools for teachers all around the world. The channels make it easier and more convenient for teachers to pass knowledge to students in ways that were never possible in the past. With video lectures it encourages a level of familiarity that helps with building a community and knowledge that is always available and accessible, irrespective of teacher's and student's location. The students were able to attend lecture at any place and at any time. Also they would explore and learn from more lectures available for all the new technologies and frameworks.
Teaching Through Collaboration It involves encouraging student collaboration for various projects. We live in a globalized world and collaboration is an essential life skill that is important for all careers and enterprises. Teachers can help foster this skill in the classroom by allowing students to learn, study and work in groups. Gives students ownership over the learning process. Increases student motivation to learn. Allows students to develop useful skills in self- and peer-assessment.
Learning Through Live Demonstration of Electronic Components and devices Using live demonstration of Electronic components and Electronic devices for understanding device architecture, it becomes easy for students to grasp the working of electronic system, its organization and architecture. It helps to understand Design of hardware, and students are able to identify which hardware of system is used for which purpose.
Learning with Course Certifications Students follow the course with help of video lectures and are being tested with help of quizzes at the end of all chapters in the course and at the end certificates are earned by them on successfully completing the course. It gives students confidence that they have learned and passed their test. This experience gives exposure to ideas and approaches outside their comfort zone. In addition, they are being able to think outside their experience which is an ingredient of leadership.
Teaching through Role Play The results reveal that participants are more enthusiastic to engage in class activities. They also develop social and communication skills through group activities associated with the teaching. Role play can be a very useful strategy to teach concepts that are perceived as abstract. Gives students ownership over the learning process. Increases student motivation to learn. Allows students to develop useful skills in self- and peer-assessment.
Demonstration of Topics through Animated Video and handmade Poster To visualize student's idea of project in a creative and interesting way so that it would help them to promote their product in an effective way in future. Also will help them to explore different directions of the project they are working on. Students got better idea how to develop their project, what steps he / she must follow to achieve complete implementation.
Teaching through Flipping Classroom It involves encouraging student for presentation of different concepts from the syllabus as a part of revision. Flipping the classroom is an effective teaching method. In this technique, the students are made active participants of the learning process. It requires the teachers to relegate to the role of resource providers and the students take the responsibility of gathering concepts information. Teaching using this technique, responsibility is on the group of students and they play the role of guides, mentors, supervisors for the students. It also teaches students empathy, negotiation skills, teamwork, and problem-solving.
Teaching through Alumni Interaction It involves sharing knowledge by alumni working as software engineers in IT Industry / electronic engineers in VLSI or in ES, with their juniors on practical grounds. How to apply the principles of engineering to the design, development, maintenance, testing, and evaluation of software / hardware can be learned. Teaching using this technique, various aspects of the subject actually how they are used while developing a project is easily understood by the students.
Student Seminars In many subjects, students deliver Seminars to the rest of their classmates. This significantly boosts students' confidence and their learning experience. Idea: To make students develop communication skills and reduce the stage fear in them. Bringing out the communication skills of students.
Blended Learning Blended learning is an educational approach that combines traditional face-to-face classroom instruction with online learning. It allows students to experience a mix of in-person and digital learning activities, often providing more flexibility in how and when they engage with content. Improved Collaboration and Social Learning.
Project Based Learning Improve the Methodology to Integrate knowledge and skills. The students were very involved and learned how to develop electronic devices.
Social Responsibility Idea: To inculcate the social responsibility by participating students in NSS programmes. Implementation: NSS Students are conducted many social activities like clean and green, Festival voluntary programmes, social Awareness Programmes etc. Bringing out the social responsibility by creative thoughts of students.
Teaching through Animations and Presentations Idea: To show students how windings are done in motors practically in 3D view so that students can imagine and understand better. Active participation of students. Remembering the topic for a longer time.
