Strategy #1:TO CREATE INTERACTION AMONG SENIORS AND JUNIORS FOR  INTERDISCIPLINARY COLLABORATION

1. Ideators club enhances the interaction among seniors and juniors with creative thinking abilities of them. It aims at bringing out the entrepreneurial skills of a student. In order to make I&E more effective, introduction of a course that focuses on innovation, is essential.
2. Making students to design and implement innovative ideas
3. Fun with learning
4. Allotting faculty for guidance
5. As a part of course, various activities related to innovation, few workshops need to be implemented.
6. To make learning more interesting, students should be given more opportunities to share their ideas and knowledge.
7. It takes almost 3 to 4 months to complete the projects.
8. Students must form into groups of 4(maximum of 2 from each department) and select a mentor of their choice from each department. This makes the project inter-disciplinary.
9. In a week’s time, students start working out on their projects.
10. In order to make sure their projects are going on as per schedule, they have to send their progress monthly to faculty whom they opted as their mentor
11. If anyone wants to add extensions to their project and need financial support, they get ‘seed money’ of about $1600
12. They have to wait for one month to get the requested seed money K. Chokkanathan, I&E cell coordinator takes care of these. This request process is done in the month of March.
13. A branch representative must be elected and a a student governing club must be formed to look over the various activites happening in the college.
14. Every student may not feel comfortable in expressing their views and ideas infront of management,in such case this governing body acys as bridge between the management and the students.
15. Creating a group mail to all the students in the college so that the information regarding the events will be passed to every one.

OFFERING VARIOUS COURSES RELATED TO LATEST TECHNOLOGIES FOR ALL THE STUDENTS IN THE COLLEGE

1. This could possibly be a program of classes that will take place during both the student's second and third year in order to make sure that the student is ready to tackle the final projects before graduating and heading out into the workforce.
2. Getting updated with latest technologies
3. Encouraging students for active participation
4. Maximum of  200 students shall be taken in for the club during the semester. Every semester this club offers new registrations
5. Since there are students from different branches, we planned to have the classes during 3 - 4 ,where at least students from few branches have a free period.
6. Conducting guest lectures and weekend classes on latest technologies

Strategy #2-Less Practical Teaching

1. Projectors: We have this resource called projectors in our college but our main motto is to make use of these projectors efficiently in a productive and effective way.That is, we are seeking to avail this resource called projectors to be fixed in each and every classroom possible so that it helps the students to understand the concepts in a practical way.It enables students for more efficient note-taking such that they can focus more on listening and this can solve the issue of students taking down incorrect or irrelevant notes.This is particularly useful when covering new or complex topics.
2. Experiments: Frequent experimental work in classrooms enables students to enhance their practical knowledge and to think out of the box.Learning by doing is a kind of thing that allows the students to involve, participate and learn from the resources and activities.
3. Roofless Teaching: This means that taking students to educational and industrial tours as it helps students to gain information regarding the functioning of the industry.It also provides opportunities to plan, organize and engage in active learning both inside and outside the classroom.
4. Recording Classes: This kind of activity is very helpful and beneficial especially when students miss the classes due to several reasons.Recorded videos of lectures assist the students to access the missed lectures and understand the next lecture after he/she goes to the class.Viewing recorded material provides more opportunities for interaction during class time.
5. Awareness of e-library among all students: Availing the resource of e-library helps the students to understand the concepts in a profound way and to learn how to apply the concepts in day to day life.

Strategy #3-CREATING AWARENESS AMONG STUDENTS TO JOIN CLUBS

To bring awareness among students to join the clubs in the college we employ multiple strategies.

• Educating seniors to talk with juniors about various clubs in the college, their motives and objectives.
• To give extra credits for active members of the clubs.
• To give prizes and certificates for the winners of the competitions held in the club
• To conduct Inter-College Competitions
• To conduct events like Hackathon, Makeathon and even guest lectures from famous personalities.
• To conduct a 3 day mandatory workshop for each club. So the students of various departments can come to know about the existence, motives and functions of the clubs
• To conduct games for relaxation and motivation among students
• To give funding for innovative projects and start-ups built as the part of the club.

MILESTONES AND THEIR TARGET DATES:

MILESTONE	TARGET DATES/DURATION
The number of students in each club should be increased by 10%	ONE MONTH
Advertising the clubs via faculty.	15 DAYS
Electing volunteers from various disciplines to support this process.	15 DAYS

Strategy #4: COLLEGE RADIO

GOAL:Each and every news in the campus should be known to each and every student in the campus.

• Organized by students regardless of branch, year.Students are the anchors in college radio.Students may be available or may not available they may be busy in exams sometimes so that college radio should not be muted.So here is the view what is discussed when students are avaliable and when students are not avaliable.

​

Anchor Avaliable	Anchor Not Avaliable (Recorded)
Events	Entertainment
Prize Distributions	Advertisements to the sponsor's Company
Current Affairs	Speeches from great leaders
Debates	Quotations and Proverbs
Cultural activities	Career Guidance
National and International Conferences	Internship Opportunities
Fun with Learning Tricks	Sports updates

• It will be running during college hours continuously.

• News regarding Students and faculty are announced in College Radio.

• In college radio we don’t even miss single news regarding college activities.

• Entertainment is also part of college radio so many students are attracted towards it.

• Sponsorship is provided to the college radio by Business Companies because we advertise their company in the college radio.
