a. Title of the Practice : Conduct of the Study Tours for Experiential Learning
b. Goal: To give practical exposure to the students to supplement the theoretical concepts taught in the class-rooms. To
help students understand the dynamics of knowledge in various domains.
c. The Context: Carry out exploratory study to give exposure to our students about the working of the industries,
financial sectors, judiciary frameworks and environmental issues etc.
d. The Practice:
1) Study tours are organised in consultation with Principal and concerned teaching staff members to decide on
the specific area of study to explore like industries, BSE, NSE, Mutual Fund offices, Court visit, Juvenile
(Jail) home and natures visits.
2) Interested students are required to seek parent’s permission. Teams are formed and amongst the team the
leaders are selected who monitor the teams and assists the teacher in charge throughout the tour.
3) Students are expected to write notes during visit, ask questions and understand the entire process/method at
the place of study tour. After the visit they are required to submit the report on the same.
4) Details of the Study Tours conducted during the year are as follows:
A. Court Visit and Juvenile (Jail) home
• 60 students of S.Y.BCom were taken for High Court visit Churchgate. The students are able to witness
the proceedings of the cases presented at the High Court. Students also interact with the advocates and
discuss the cases and seek clarification of the doubts.
• 60 student of S.Y.BCom were taken for the visit of Juvenile Home visit at Dogrib Sandhurst Road,
Mumbai. Students are able to observe the children at the juvenile home understand the state of affairs at
the juvenile home. For the awareness of the children t at juvenile home, our students performed street
plays and presented songs highlighting the importance of education.
B. Nature's Trip
44 students of the college were taken for environmental visit to Sanjay Gandhi National Park. Mr.
Jagdish Wakale was tour guide. He explained our students about different types of flora and fauna and
their characteristics.
e. Evidence of Success: Reports submitted by students after the visit, shows the knowledge gained by them during the
study tour. Questions raised by them and answers given by the concerned authorities during the visit are the
evidences of the transfer of practical knowledge and learning process on the field. Students can subsequently co-
relate what is being taught in the classes.
f. Problems Encountered:
1) Planning of the study tours, to coordinate with the officials of the places of visits, and acquire matching
dates with the academic calendar of the college.
2) The industries interested, falling in industrial belts are located outside Mumbai. Hence commuting time is
proportionately is too high as compared to actual visit time.
3) Overnight stay in hotel exceeds the budgeted fees per student; hence students are not keen to join the visit.
4) Parents are not interested in sending theirs wards for overnight visits.
c. The Context: the project was started with the idea to bring some innovations in NSS activities. As a college
lots of waste papers are generated and thrown out. NSS unit thought of making use of these waste papers for
some concrete purpose and thereby we wanted to help needy students. Waste paper recycling started with the
intention to contribute to environmental protection.
d. The Practice: NSS Unit has kept boxes made up of cartons in college staff room, principal’s cabin, college
office and NSS room. College teaching and non-teaching staff, students and Principal is informed about the
putting the waste papers in respective boxes. Every Saturday NSS volunteers empty the waste papers in the
plastic bags kept in NSS room. We have also organized maximum waste paper collection competition class wise
to encourage the students to collect waste papers. NSS Volunteers are also encouraged to collect waste papers
from their homes and residential areas. The collected waste paper is handed over to Parisar Vikas unit of Stree
Mukti Sanghatana. The collected waste papers are recycled and note books of the amount of 60% of the value of
waste papers are given to NSS Unit. This note books are made of totally recycled papers. These note books are
distributed to Adivasi School in Vangaon.
e. Evidence of Success: Total 438 kgs of waste papers and 17 kgs of E-waste collected and sent for recycling.
Total 100 books of A4 size of 50 pages each received from the Parisar Vikas Unit of Stree Mukti Sanghatana.
