Page 27/74 13-09-2023 [Link]

 Self Study Report of MARIANI COLLEGE

Response:

The Institution adopts a teaching method which totally involves student centric approach of teaching.
The student centric method of teaching is helpful in transforming students from their passive role as only
learners to active and involved stakeholders and also boosting their confidence and encouraging
independent decision making. The institution has large number of students, who vary in their ability to
understand and absorb whatever is taught or provided to them. In a teacher centric environment, it is not
possible to fulfill all the needs and expectations of individual students and expect a uniform learning
outcome. Therefore, the teacher facilitates learning by allowing the involvement of each student in the
class at their level of capacity so that they can absorb and grasp the information provided to them at their
own pace.

With a view to enhance learning experiences, the institution has undertaken a number of measures. It
has increased ICT facilities in the classrooms by constructing digital classrooms, free internet facility for
students, providing newspapers and journal facilities, encouraging students’ participation in
departmental, inter-departmental, and inter-college (district level) seminars, organizing various
constructive talks and lectures for the development of students, etc. The NSS body of the college has also
been working for providing practical education to the students in various areas. Moreover, the Teachers’
Unit, Women Cell, Literary Forum, Commerce Forum, Science Forum and the Departments of the
College have been organizing cultural programmes, workshops, seminars,Popular talks, etc. at
regular intervals for the benefit of the students.

Various Departments of the College are also engaged in innovating Student-Centric Methods for
enhancing learning methods. All the departments of the College conduct Seminars on topics from the
course syllabus, as a part of internal assessment. The Students are also involved in publishing Wall
Magazines of their respective departments and these Wall Magazines cover topics related to various
themes and subjects. Departments also ensure the participation of students in Extempore Speech, Quiz
Competitions, publication of hand-written journals, field visits, projects, etc.

The teachers try to make the classes as interesting and interactive as possible, and encourage
innovative and novel interpretations and thoughts. The Departments try to provide experiential and
participative learning through various methods like Power Point Presentation, Google Classroom,
Zoom Classes, Google Meet Casses, Field Work, Projects, etc.

Participation of students in various programmes in the college as well as other institutions such as Youth
Festival, Inter-College Competitions or Programmes, Seminars, Workshops or Gender-Awareness
Programmes, etc. helps in enhancing their learning experiences. The students are also encouraged to
write in college magazine, and wall magazines, to participate in essay or self-composed poem
competitions, organized in the college at regular intervals. Students are also encouraged to provide their
volunteer services in the programmes organized by various Cells, Units and Departments of the College,
as a part of participatory model of learning. Along with this, paper presentation in the class, extempore
speech, assignments on the course syllabus, class seminars, group discussions, sudden class tests, etc. are
given to students as part of problem solving methodologies.

consideration

The institute strongly follows the government reservation policies in admission of students and
recruitment process of the college for well representation of diverse students and employees.

Financial assistance is provided to economically backward students, this is mainly maintained

by free admission to the BPL students. since the major influx of students to the college is from Tea

towards the tea garden community .Generally, the tea garden workers are less interested to send their
children to schools and colleges for education and this is mainly due their poverty stricken life. Many

alcohol, tobacco, child marriage, high population growth are some major problems associated with their
life. In view of all these, the Mariani College has considered it as one of the best practice to render some

 Self Study Report of MARIANI COLLEGE

5. CONCLUSION
Additional Information :
Mariani College, established in 1966, successfully celebrated its Golden Jubilee in the year 2015, to
commemorate the progress and growth of the institution. The institution was last assessed by NAAC in 2017
and it achieved B+ Grade with 2.53 CGPA. Since then, Mariani College has witnessed a steady development
with regards to academic and non-academic scopes. It is worth noting that since the college is located in a semi-
urban area and majority of the students of the institution belong to weak economic background, the college has
been endeavouring its best to provide quality education to its students. Apart from the completed add-on
courses, another 16 Add-on courses are newly approved by Dibrugarh University and 8 courses are running
smoothly. Moreover, The College also has a centre of Krishna Kanta Handique State Open University
(KKHSOU). The College has built a multi-purpose synthetic volleyball and badminton court, gymnasium and
classrooms. Therefore, aside from the progress displayed in the respective criteria, the additional information
cited above give evidence of the manifold progress made by the institution since the last NAAC assessment.

Concluding Remarks :
Mariani college was established in the month of 1966 with the initiatives of socially conscious people and with
proactive leadership of eminent people of the locality. At that time in this particular semi-urban area there was
no higher educational institution. So, these proactive society felt an urgent need of a higher education.

At the time of inception, the college was functioning by two streams, i.e., Arts and Commerce streams. The
College was affiliated to Dibrugarh University on 09-06-1967 with 10 departments in both the streams. The
Assam Government brought the college under Adhoc grant system in 1973 and under Deficit Grant in Aid
System form December 1975. Afterwards the college was recognised by UGC in July 1981 under the UGC Act
2F and later in 12B and since then the college is getting UGC Grants. The college has been catering to the need
of people of Greater Mariani Area by offering Undergraduate Education. However, recently the college has
been offering Post Graduate Programmes in some subjects through distance mode of State runed by Krishna
Kanta Handique State Open University. Till the first part of the decade of 90s, there was not a single Institution
in the Greater Mariani Area for Science Education. Keeping this view in mind, the college has introduced
Science Stream in 1993, which was provincialised later in the year 2013.

Presently, Mariani College is a NAAC B+ organization with all the three streams (Arts, Science and
Commerce) distributed among two campuses (old and new) accommodating more than 2000 aspiring students
of the locality. Despite of being situated in a underprivileged locality with lots of social and economic problems
and marginalised population, the students of the college have been able to outshine in academic and co-
curricular activities. This may be due to relentless efforts made by the faculties.

In a response to the NEP 2020, the college has been taking some interventions for promoting vocational
courses, which is well reflected in the 16 Add-on Courses offered by different departments. Besides as a part of
extension activities the various departments of the college adopted several villages and schools.
