authorities have succeeded in providing him extra one hour time in the University
semester examinations.
Similarly, Anusha of I B.Sc. (2015-16) has hearing problem. She is allowed to sit in the
front bench of the class and the teachers give special attention to her. In addition, she is
provided with free mid-day meal facility.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 47
Economically weaker sections:
Since the government of Karnataka does not provide any reservation or concession to the
students of economically weaker sections of the society, the college provides many
facilities to such students.
Free mid-day meal facility
The Alumni of the college are quite generous. They donate money to the college to be
distributed among the poor students. For example, Mr. Haladi Srinivasa Shetty has been
donating ₹10 lakh every year which is distributed among 100 poor, meritorious students
of the college irrespective of their caste and community.
The college recommends the cases of such students to the Nationalized Banks to sanction
education loans.
The College Trust is providing ₹ 10 lakhs to each year’s budget for the scholarship to the
meritorious students. Out of ₹ 10 lakhs, ₹ 8 lakhs is added to the corpus and the
remaining ₹ 2 lakhs plus the interest earned on the corpus is disbursed yearly towards the
scholarship. The scheme was initiated in the year 2010-11 with an initial amount of ₹ 10
lakhs and at present the total corpus is ₹ 62 lakhs.
Student adoption – considering the economic background and zeal for higher studies, few
students are adopted by the staff.

remarkable number of students from minority communities.

During the last five years, there has been more and more demand for B.Com course. We
are restricting the admission of commerce students to 270, to prevent the production of
educated unemployed.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 49
Among other courses, BCA has increasing demand, because of the better job
opportunities.
In BBM course, the demand is fluctuating.
For B.Sc. course, the demand is steadily increasing.
With reference to B.A course, the demand is very poor. The reasons are,
i) Now-a-days both parents and students do not understand the importance of
Humanities/social science subjects.
ii) Since most of the students who opt for B.A. are academically poor, they find it
difficult to get jobs once they complete the course.
However, a handful of students who have realized the importance have deliberately
joined the course in spite of their scoring high percentage of marks in the qualifying
examinations and having opportunities in other streams too.
2.2 Catering to Student Diversity

2.5.2 What are the major evaluation reforms of the university that the institution has adopted
and what are the reforms initiated by the institution on its own?
For the affiliated colleges of the Mangalore University, credit based semester system was
introduced in 2006. According to this system, a graduate has to pass through six
semesters to earn hundred credits of 50 marks each.
The speciality of our university is that, four credits are set aside for students’ participation
in co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.
Even though there is no choice regarding the credit based semester system, the individual
college has liberty to form different associations under co-curricular and extra-curricular
activities.
Apart from that, interdisciplinary classes are also conducted. The students have to earn
their marks in co-curricular and extra-curricular activities by attending not only the
activities of the associations but also interdisciplinary classes. This is a unique feature of
our college. Suitable weightage of marks is given to students for their performance in
both extra-curricular/co-curricular activities and ID classes.
These activities and classes are conducted on a regular basis and the time schedule is
incorporated in the college timetable.
2.5.3 How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation reforms of
the university and those initiated by the institution on its own?
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 61
There is central valuation system managed by the university. All eligible faculty are
appointed by the university to value the answer scripts.
Necessary guidance is given to students about grievances regarding the result and they
will be directed for redressal through re-totalling, personal seeing and revaluation
facilities provided by the university.
The lecturers of the institution assist the university in all phases of evaluation so that there
will be effective implementation of the evaluation reforms.
Only in awarding internal assessment marks and Extra-curricular/Co-curricular activity
marks the college has some liberty. While awarding internal assessment marks, one
internal test and one viva-voce will be conducted for BBM course. For all other courses
two internal tests are conducted for awarding internal assessment marks. Out of 50 marks
to be awarded for Extra-curricular/Co-curricular activity, 40 marks are awarded to Extra-
curricular/Co-curricular activity and 10 marks for interdisciplinary classes.
2.5.4 Provide details on the formative and summative assessment approaches adopted to
measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have positively impacted the
system.
The credit based semester system of the university is unique.
There are three major components of study in each of the programmes offered – core
subjects, elective subjects and foundation subjects.
All these three components are given equal weightage while awarding the degree.
Along with the above components, the marks awarded in the internal tests are also given
equal weightage.
The participation of students in any of the Extra-curricular and Co-curricular activities is
made mandatory and marks awarded for such activities are also considered for the award
of the degree.
Students are given grade point average in each semester and cumulative grade point
average at the end of the programme.
With the implementation of this evaluation system, the students are not at liberty to
discriminate amongst the subjects offered for a programme.
Student participation in extra-curricular and co-curricular activities has improved.
The grade-point average system does not allow any student to neglect any subject
throughout the course.
2.5.5 Detail on the significant improvements made in ensuring rigor and transparency in the
internal assessment during the last four years and weightages assigned for the overall
development of students (weightage for behavioural aspects, independent learning,
communication skills etc.
The college ensures the overall development of the students through Academic Advisory
System and EC/CC activities.
The institution monitors the progress of students through academic advisory system. This
involves the maintenance of the cumulative records, recording the percentage of
attendance, marks scored in tests and examinations. These records are presented to the
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 62
parents/ guardians for their appraisal through the wards. The cumulative records are then
returned to the Academic Advisors after getting the signatures of the parents/ guardians.
Through this Academic Advisory System weightage will be given to behavioural aspects,
independent thinking and commutative skills of the students.
The activities of the different associations promote independent learning and
communicative skills of the students. Their achievement in this field is quantified in the
form of marks in EC/CC.
2.5.6 What are the graduate attributes specified by the college/ affiliating university? How
does the college ensure the attainment of these by the students?
A graduate of our college is expected to be a worthy citizen of India having true
patriotism.

encouraged to write creative as well as critical literature.
2.5.7 What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation both
at the college and University level?
At the college level, two tests are conducted to award internal assessment marks. The
answer scripts will be given to the students so that any probable discrepancy in valuation
can be brought to the notice of the concerned lecturer. The concerned lecturer
immediately does re-totalling as well as re-valuation.
Since the college is affiliated to the Mangalore University, the college has no freedom for
redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 63
There is central valuation system managed by the office of the evaluation of the
university. All the lecturers will be appointed by the university to value the answer
scripts.
If anything goes wrong regarding the result, retotalling, personal seeing and revaluation
facilities are provided by the university. The lecturers of the institution assist the
university in all steps of evaluation so that there will be effective redressal of grievances
with reference to evaluation.
Only in awarding internal assessment marks and EC/CC marks the college has some
liberty. Our college does that duty sincerely. Each and every grievance of the student
with reference to this evaluation will be redressed properly.
2.6. Student performance and Learning Outcomes
2.6.1 Does the college have clearly stated learning outcomes? If ‘yes’ give details on how the
students and staff are made aware of these?
The Mangalore University has introduced Credit Based Semester System in 2006-07. As
per this system, a graduate has to pass through six semesters and has to earn marks out of
100 credits of 50 each. Since the result will be announced on the basis of the aggregate
marks earned by the students, all the six semesters are equally important. Keeping in view
the overall development of the personality of the student, four credits of four semesters
each are set aside for the student participation in co-curricular and extra- curricular
activities. Those activates impart human values as well as civic values to the graduate.
Each semester examination will be conducted by the university. Lecturers working in the
affiliated colleges help the university by being members of board of studies and board of
examination. At the end of a programme the university gives a convocation certificate as
well as marks card to each candidates. The marks card contains both the numerical and
grade result. The candidates participation as well as achievements in co-curricular and
extra- curricular are also mentioned in the marks list.
This certificate, given by the university, helps the candidates either to go for higher
education or to get into a job.
2.6.2 Enumerate on how the institution monitors and communicates the progress and
performance of students through the duration of the course/programme? Provide an analysis
of the students results/achievements (Programme/course wise for last four years) and explain
the differences if any and patterns of achievement across the programmes/courses offered.
The institution monitors and communicates the progress and performance of the students
with the help of Academic Advisory System. 30 or 40 students of a class are assigned to
one academic advisor. The academic advisor has to maintain a cumulative record of each
and every ward. In that cumulative record, the personal details of the students, the record
of his attendance, the marks obtained in all subjects in two tests and one examination, the
participatory record of the students extra- and co-curricular activities are entered by the
academic advisors. Even the attendance record is also entered.
Parent and Teacher meeting will be conducted twice per year. In those meetings, the
academic advisor meets the parents or guardians of his ward personally. The academic
progress of the student will be brought to the notice of those guardians or parents.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 64
Constructive counselling will be given both to the parents and the students. This system
effectively monitors and communicates the progress and performance of the students
through the duration of the course.
Through the career guidance cell, the students are guided to appear for campus interview
which in turn helps them to get jobs in different companies. The academic advisor also
helps the ward to go for higher education.
This system provides an opportunity to the concerned academic advisor to supervise the
progress or otherwise of the students. For example, Mr. Abhishek Shetty was a B.Sc.
(BZC student). He discontinued his studies during the academic year 2012-13. The
academic advisor persuaded him to continue his education. He re-joined the college in the
academic year 2013-14 and passed out with distinction in the year 2014-2015. Later, he
got selected in campus selection by WIPRO and is presently working at Bangalore. This
is a good example for the impact of formative and summative assessment approach.
The Department of Computer Science has adopted this method so effectively that in the
year 2011-12 it earned one rank, in 2013-14 four ranks, in 2014-15 three ranks and in
2015-16 two ranks.
2.6.3 How are the teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the institution structured to
facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcomes?
The Credit Based Semester System of the Mangalore University is designed to augment
the overall development of the students. For this reason, in addition to curricular aspects
extra as well as co- curricular aspects are given importance. Our college also conducts a
few certificate courses keeping in view the skill as well general knowledge development
of the students. The intention behind this strategy is to facilitate the overall personal
development of the graduates.
2.6.4 What are the measures/initiatives taken up by the institution to enhance the social and
economic relevance (student placements, entrepreneurship, innovation and research aptitude
developed among students etc.) of the courses offered?
The career guidance cell of the college facilitates the students to appear for campus
interviews and get into jobs in multinational companies.
The Management as well as Commerce festivals organised by the respective departments,
train the students in the skill of entrepreneurship. Even mediocre participants of these
fests turn out to be good organisers due to their direct participation.
The industrial visits and interviews with the industrialists motivate the students to be
entrepreneurs.
Initiative taken up by the Physics Department in sending them to participate in workshops
on Robotics has helped them to be innovative.
Android app of the Computer Department has increased the innovative ability of the
students.
The students of the Humanities Departments had organised two conventions. In 2014-15,
they organised a convention of tribes. In 2015-16, they organised a convention of
physically challenged people. The experience of organising these two conventions have
helped the students to be innovative and to be entrepreneurs.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 65
In order to develop research aptitude among the students, the institution has been funding
the minor research projects of the students. There is a research and development cell in
our college. During 2011-12 and 2012-13 twelve lecturers as well as students have made
their research work under this facility. In the year 2014-15, fourteen minor research
projects were undertaken by students as well as lecturers. In the year 2015-16 three
faculty research projects and twelve student research projects have been undertaken.
2.6.5 How does the institution collect and analyse data on student performance and learning
outcomes and use it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning?
Through the Academic Advisory System, the institution collects and analyses data on
student performance. In the cumulative record the marks obtained by the student in
internal test as well as semester examinations will be entered. On the day of the meeting
of the parent teachers association, the academic advisors meet the parents personally and
analyse the performance of their wards. Proper counselling will be given both to the
parents as well as students.
The learning outcome will be used to recognise the learning level of the student. If the
particular student is low in learning level, he will be recommended to attend remedial
classes. Extra attention will be given to him. On the other hand, if the learning level of the
student is high, he will be recommended for advanced learning. Extra books and journals
will be given to him. Such intelligent students will be motivated to for E-Learning.
The governing council of the college analyses the results of the students. If the result is
poor, the faculty members will be enquired about it. On the basis of the good result, extra
seats can be accommodated by the management for that particular course.
The college is in a rural area. The students hailing from Kannada medium schools usually
face the problem of communication in English. In order to overcome this barrier spoken
English class are conducted. For those commerce and management students who want to
pursue C.A and C.S, the extra training classes like CPT are conducted.
Through the career guidance cell, the students are helped to appear for campus interview
and thereby get into jobs.
In order to inculcate the sense of patriotism, national festivals are celebrated.
In addition to language skills, the social skills are also taught to the students who come
from disadvantaged sections of the society. They are taught civic mannerisms as well as
etiquette.
There are different associations that work under CC and EC activities. They help the
students coming from rural areas to achieve overall development of their personality.
Internet facility is given to the students to get them exposure to the global culture.
2.6.6 How does the institution monitor and ensure the achievement of learning outcomes?
Under the credit based semester system, a student is made to appear for six semesters for
three years. With the help of the academic advisory system, the achievement of the
student is monitored right from first semester to six semester. If a student performs well
in tests and examinations his/ her achievement will be recognised and prize will be given
on the occasion of college day.
On completion of and add on course or interdisciplinary course a certificate will be given.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 66
As a part of encouraging creativity and critical ability of the students, paintings, sketches,
poems, stories and articles of the student will be published in the college magazine.
Intelligent students are identified and will be sent to inter- collegiate competitions. The
staff advisors ensure the students that the facilities will be properly used.
Scholarships and endowment prizes are given to the eligible students on the basis of their
participation in academic as well as EC/CC activities.
2.6.7 Does the institution and individual teachers use assessment/ evaluation outcomes as an
indicator for evaluating student performance, achievement of learning objectives and
planning?
If ‘yes’ provide details on the process and cite a few examples. Any other relevant
information regarding Teaching-Learning and Evaluation which the college would like to
include.
Yes. The institution as well individual teachers use evaluation outcome as an indicator for
evaluation student performance. In the field of academics the achievements of the rank
holders is considered as an indicator. In other fields like sports, NCC, NSS and Fine Arts,
the success stories of the great achievers will be as role models.
Among the teaching faculty many lecturers are alumnae of the institution. They are
shown as indicators for evaluating student performance.
In the field of business, many old students of the college have become successful
entrepreneurs for example one Mr. Shanadi Ajith Hegde has passed KAS and has been
appointed as DC. Mr. Suraj is the owner of the hotel Dwaraka. The success stories of
these alumnae are used as indicators.
Through our placement and career guidance cell many old students are placed in
remunerative jobs. Their feedback is used as indicator.
In our college, rural background, poor command over English and low level of
confidence are the three important indicators. These indicators are used to form the
methodology of teaching by the teachers. The teachers use their modified methodologies
to meet the demands of students.

Best Practice - I
1. Title of the Practice:
Interdisciplinary course
2. Goal:
To gain basic knowledge of some area of interest for the students.
To get the students exposed to new subject areas.
Create interest among the students by interacting with resource persons of other
subjects.
3. The Context:
An attempt is made to introduce the students to a new subject area other than their sphere
of study. Initially students were hesitant in selecting a course and to overcome this, the
faculty members provided proper counseling and guidance to the students to assist them in
choosing the apt course. Syllabus is drafted by the respective department and the same is
implemented.
4. Practice:
Students are required to choose any one of the prescribed subject/ stream other than their
core subject and shall attend one hour instruction per week according to prescribed syllabi.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 168
A course content that could be discussed for a duration of one hour per week is prescribed.
The faculty members of the concerned departments were given the responsibility of
conducting the classes.
Practical sessions, question and answer etc. are introduced wherever applicable. Guest
lecture on special occasions are arranged by external resource person if needed.
5. Evidence of Success:
At the end of the program, a test (preferably multiple choices) is conducted to evaluate the
student performance. Students’ performance was remarkable indicating that the program is
accepted by the students.
6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required:
Motivating the students to new programs and enrollment of students
Drafting a reasonable course content that would be appreciated by the students.
Allotment of human resources for the best implementation of the program.
Best Practice - II
1. Title of the Practice

Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 169
To facilitate sharing of academic resources like study materials and lab manuals.
To notify the students about institutional activities as well as campus recruitment
events which can be accessed anywhere though internet.
To send online notifications to faculty members.
To facilitate discussion environment to students and lecturers so that it will
provide a virtual class room environment.
To provide students a social media environment where they can directly
communicate with each other in the form of e-mails, chatting etc. This will help
them in discussing the things of their need.
Computerized students’ progression entry by RoboVidya application software.
To get centralized and digitized access over the students’ progression.
To facilitate error free maintenance through digitized students’ progression entry.
Networked Printers
To provide faster and better printing services.
Cost reduction by replacing multiple dot-matrix and laser printers by one powerful
networked printer.
To minimize power consumption.
3. The Context:
Absence of network environment - Internet to various departments through separate lines
and modems – Excessive recurring expenditure on maintenance of
hardware/software/licence - Greater power consumption due to separate/individual
systems - Lack of digital sharing/communication among faculty/students
Absence of an exclusive domain id to the institution prevented individual faculty being
provided with an official e-mail id – disadvantageous in procuring research
articles/membership to academic/professional bodies, etc.
Presence of printers in many places resulted in excessive recurring expenditure on paper,
toner, power and maintenance.
To overcome these disadvantages and to get aligned with the Digital India move, the
institution has introduced many ICT enabled facilities. The internet and Wi-Fi facility
have been centralized with OFC infrastructure with the support of high bandwidth
internet service providers. This facility helped the organization to provide a centralized
digital environment. Using this high-speed networking the college has implemented
Remote Desktop Systems (RDS) to bring all the departments as well as their faculty
member under one roof of networked systems with the Windows 2012 server. This will
drastically reduce the recurring cost on individual machines to implement on each
department as well as other access points since RDS system enables to install thin clients
and also power consumption will be reduced. By this, institution can share storage
resource as well as software applications. This will lead to safe and secure access of all
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 170
digital resources provided by the institution. This will also lead to get all the software
systems and applications licensed and hence a legal digital environment.
The institution has its own domain to facilitate e-mail id to all the faculty members as
well as students. This domain and login-id with the support of Office 365 provides a
proper private social media networking for all the members of the institution. Since this
provides a virtual class room environment every member of the institution can use this as
a platform for discussion and resource sharing.
Computerized attendance entry in RoboVidya software enables error free record
maintenance of the students’ attendance. It also helps in faster access of a particular
record to the related stakeholder.
Administrative block, Computer Science laboratories and Library have networked
printers to provide faster and economic printing services. Since one powerful printing
machine replaces many dot-matrix or multiple laser printers it is cost effective and power
consumption will be reduced to a greater extent.
4. Practice:
Older Wi-Fi based networking which were supported by the co-axial cables were leading
to a problem of very low network speed in the institutions networked environment. This
was becoming a hurdle in creating a centralized digital environment. Now this old
networking is completely replaced by new Optical Fiber Cable networking which
allowed faster network speed and provision of higher bandwidth of better service
providers.
Since OFC networks provide decent speed in networking the institution has shifted from
its decentralized digital environment to centralized digital environment. This is brought
in to practice by installing Remote Desktop System with Windows 2012 server and thin
clients in the individual access points (departments). This helps in resource sharing like
storage space and software applications. This, in turn, helps in easily possessing
legalized software packages and to provide better security for all the digital contents
since proper authentication is required to access them.
Office 365 login is provided to all the faculty members and students hence they can
access their own e-mails and manage their user account. Here faculty members are
allowed to create groups according to class, subject of interest, or under any related area.
Then they can place other faculty members in the group and provide the authentication
and place students also as members. By this it creates a perfect social media networking
where students and lecturers can share space in this virtual environment. This means
they share resources, take part in live chatting to discuss any topic of their interest, to
provide information on many activities going on in and around the institution and
campus recruitment events’ information etc from anywhere they are present. This virtual
environment provides a better way of communication because it needs internet and
internet enabled devices to get access to this.
Self Study Report: NAAC Accreditation – III Cycle 2017
Bhandarkars’ Arts & Science College, Kundapura Page 171
Students’ attendance is maintained both in manual and digitized format. RoboVidya
software has been used to enter the students’ daily attendance. In this software every
faculty is provided with a login-id and their time table is stored by the administrator.
Each staff member can enter the attendance after engaging the class. At any time any
faculty member can access the attendance record of a particular class and hence the
student’s attendance also.
Administrative block, Computer Science laboratories and Library have one networked
printer each. This reduces cost on printing, improves quality of printing, reduces power
consumption and time for printing per page
5. Evidence of Success:
Flexible and effective communication is possible because of the centralized digital
environment.
Effective reduction of recurring cost in hardware as well as software because of the
installation of thin client machines.
Strict security measures are imposed on institution’s data and information by
enforcing authentication.
Paper usage has been effectively reduced because of digital communication.
Students and the faculty can effectively communicate with each other through Office
365.
Learning resources are shared effectively and more economically via groups in Office
365.
Easy, faster and accurate access over students’ attendance.
Power consumption is effectively reduced by thin-clients.
Networked printers effectively reduce cost of maintenance, they reduce power
consumption and they also help in faster printing services.
6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required:
Relatively high installation costs.
Providing or getting fullest support and service in times when defects were found.
Creating awareness in changed digital environment of the institution.
Creating awareness and motivating the utilization of social media network created by
the institution.
Transforming the mindset from manual and paper communication to digital
communication.
Problem of e-waste when many printers are replaced by one networked printer.

POST ACCREDITATION QUALITY ENHANCEMENT INITIATIVES
The institution initiated quality enhancement measures based on the recommendations made
by the NAAC Peer Team during II Cycle of NAAC Accreditation.
Recommendation 1: College may take steps to introduce new ICT enabled and professional
PG courses such as MCA, MBA and M.Sc. (C.S) and other PG courses in a phased manner
Action Taken:
The college has taken steps to introduce different PG courses in a phased manner.
This move was initiated with the introduction of M.Com. course in the year 2012-13.
The college had applied for the commencement PG course in English by paying the
affiliation fees in the year 2014-15. However, due to the conditions imposed by the
affiliation committee that a minimum four staff should possess Ph.D.; an exclusive library
with an addition of books worth Rs. 50,000 annually and exorbitant annual affiliation and
service fees payable to the University forced the management to concentrate on the
undergraduate courses only.
Recommendation 2: Efforts may be made to appoint permanent faculty against the
sanctioned posts.
Action Taken: The Government is not appointing permanent faculty against the
sanctioned posts since 1988 in Grant-in-aid colleges and also not permitting the college
management to fill the vacancies on permanent basis.
Barring these restrictions, the management has taken the liberty to appoint permanent
faculty in self-financed courses and ad-hoc appointment against the sanctioned grant-in-
aid vacant posts.
Recommendation 3: Faculty may be encouraged to undertake research and consultancy and
organize conferences, seminars and workshops
Action Taken: The faculty are encouraged to undertake research activity. The
following table shows details of research activity of the institution.
