CLASS MANAGEMENT

Bindu,

 

Please take the opportunity and in the very first contact (Zero) please personally explain to each COCO and also the Batch coordinator that the system is as follows and Batch Coordinator to follow up and get the report in time from each batch for each contact. Please give a thought whether I have missed anything and add to it. If necessary change the format but please do it for B24C0. It would also be useful for your project on program documentation at the Institute level.

 

The administrative COCO is supposed to submit a report everyday before the start of the next day. Attendance is very important to track on the front page of the report. On the backside of the report he is supposed to comment and direct our specific attention to what needs to be repaired or attended to : like chairs, mikes, projector, pens, water. He should be told not to mention about hostel rooms and facilities because there is a separate procedure Dinesh has created - there is a register kept in the hostel in which specific room wise complaints are to be written so that someone can come by 2.00pm and attend to the electrical, plumbing or housekeeping needs. However, if, in spite of writing the complaint at is not attended within 2 days, he should write it in his daily report. 

 

The subject COCOs are supposed to submit a report at the beginning of the last day of the contact and specifically report in writing (a) when the handbook was received - very important (b) whether the handbook contained all the assignments or some assignments were given in the class (c) whether the teacher explained each assignment in the class so that doubts, if any, could be clarified there and then and not leave a scope for protracted correspondance after the contact leaving the RA confused (d) whether the concerned RA attended each class (e) whether the learning objectives and curriculum was covered or what specifically was not covered in the class (f) if there was a quiz or an exam during the contact, was any of it based on uncovered portion (g) what academic materials like hand books or text books were given during the contact (h) comment if any on the reading material given.

 

Best  Regards,  S K Palekar
