testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students

(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods

students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58

on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also

professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final

agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final

agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process

of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods

their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three

assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts

on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the

professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts

needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final

will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions

lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final

will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions

lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

2 To support academically weak students differently abled
Action Steps
Remedial Education for the Students of the College The methodology will be a two - group process
The first group will be termed as differently abled students
Here the remedial education will be initiated by administering tests in two phases
bull Phase one would consist of an informal test wherein around 250
students of English medium Gujarati medium and Commerce Dept
(First Year) will be tested Phase 1 procedure to be completed by end
of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of
the post - t~st will help to assess the success of the remedial
seSSlOns It will also enable them to assess the teaching methods
followed by them in the teaching process

assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts

on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education

professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final

will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation

will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final

will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions

assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday

bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts

on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education

professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding

of August 2010 It would take around 1 - V2 hour for the informal
testing procedure
57
bull Depending upon phase 1 results students will be selected for formal
testing which will be Phase 2 wherein testing will be done to assess
their levels and areas of difficulties faced in academics and thus it
will be easier for the college to provide them with the needed
assistance
bull The cost of the formal psychological testing will be 6000- per
student the cost of the testing could be borne by the parents
themselves It will be the responsibility of Remedial Educator to
counsel the parents for the formal testing of their wards The final
decision will be completely left upon the parents as to whether they
agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
bull The sessions will be conducted every Wednesday comprising of two
lectures for each group Thus the college is expected to allot a room
for the remedial sessions on every Wednesday
bull Two groups of 10 girls per group could be catered to simultaneously
on the same day
The Second Group will be termed as academically weak students
bull Herein each department will volunteer for remedial education of their
respective depts
58
bull The professors will initially identify the academically weak students
on the basis of their previous test results of their subject
bull Those students scoring less than their expected potential could also
be selected for the remedial education
bull Ex - students senior students teachers will be assigned with the
responsibility of providing intensive remedial teaching to them The
professor - in - charge of the subject will provide them with the
needed assistance and resource material
bull These sessions will be conducted twice a week for each group
bull The remedial teachers appointed for each department will keep the
remedial educator updated as to how the sessions are proceeding
bull Herein they will follow the system of a pre- test followed by three
sessions which would then be followed by a post - test The results of

agree to proceed further and allow their daughter to undergo themiddot
testing
bull Another suitable alternative will be to provide the needy students with
sponsorships so as to help them undergo psychological evaluation
bull Following the completion of phase 1 procedure remedial education
will be immediately started Irrespective of whether the students
proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions

proceed further for phase 2 procedure they still will be a part of
remedial education sessions
