Re: FW: [MTC Global] Secrets to being a better student

Dear Sirs,

Few more submissions: Directing senior students to perform these live roles at institutional level would make the whole process sustainable.

  • We should encourage deliberate improvements, 
  • promote self-reflective culture
  • providing them directions 
  • but enough room also to reflect by delegating responsibility to develop systems to make it work, 
  • ensure robust mentorship system to seek guidance, expecting them to run the systems to perfection 
  • with further improvements as add-ons 
  • since there is always another goal to reach with challenges re-defined.

Thanks and regards,

i second the opinion by Dr. P H Waghodekar.

Education helps in overall development of an individual.Prepares an individual for life and help him/her live in harmony with the environment .

Training is a process of preparing an individual for performing a specific task.

Educational Institutions, particularly professional & tertiary  education ones are entrusted with doing both.

so in any good institute, the efforts are made through   curricular,co-curricular and extra-curricular activities to achieve both the  objectives .

For the teaching ,learning methodology & pedagogy, to achieve this,  We have   
lots of examples around us.

We can choose the best practices from IIMs,IITs, NITs & many other institutions and CUSTOMIZE them to suit our local needs depending on the kind of students ,institutional vision,availability of funds etc

This is the real challenge for a Leader in the academia today.

A group of trainees is homogeneous one namely they are charged with a common goal acquiring skill in a certain area say a turner, pattern maker,runner, long jump, disc throw, etc.

Whereas students come from different background, not necessarily having a common goal nor homogeneous inputs, save to pass through a certain exam. The outcomes of education are different surfacing at the end of one generation whereas training is expected to give desired performance in a related field in a short span.

Re: [MTC Global] Secrets to being a better student

Very good point!
My exp here in the Netherlands is that students do like to associate with industry rather than studying for an exam or following lectures of prof. They enjoy guestlectures. Point is that they see the benefit of industry association for their future career. Without any practice no employer hires here.
Student is concern of finding a job when they finish so good contacts and agreements with industry is necessary.
Currently I am working on what I call a double path where they get the knowledge in classes but half of the curr should take place in industry serting WITH industry people as well as mentors and trainers. They need to be patient with the student as well and be willing to learn from them as well.

Best always

i second the opinion by Dr. P H Waghodekar.

Education helps in overall development of an individual.Prepares an individual for life and help him/her live in harmony with the environment .

Training is a process of preparing an individual for performing a specific task.

Educational Institutions, particularly professional & tertiary  education ones are entrusted with doing both.

so in any good institute, the efforts are made through   curricular,co-curricular and extra-curricular activities to achieve both the  objectives .

For the teaching ,learning methodology & pedagogy, to achieve this,  We have   
lots of examples around us.

We can choose the best practices from IIMs,IITs, NITs & many other institutions and CUSTOMIZE them to suit our local needs depending on the kind of students ,institutional vision,availability of funds etc

This is the real challenge for a Leader in the academia today.

Re: FW: [MTC Global] Secrets to being a better student

Students receive information in school and college, where they get to 'know.
This education makes more aware, but not necessarily capable, which is what the employer wants.

Trainees want abilities and attitudes, which contribute to skills, if the tasks are repeated.
Is information may be part of the training? May be. But, the busy employer is concerned more about the potential employee's skills than about his education. That is, he values skilled action more than education.

In recruitment season, students are not employable, because they lack the skills at that time - although some are 'employed', i.e. admitted to a firm, after which they are trained and socialised to work as desired.

Students will not appreciate any content - guest lectures and workshops - that does not make him employable. Perhaps, institutes should conduct a survey with their students, ascertain the reasons for their perceived lack of interest, and ask for their suggestions as to how to make them attend. Our real objectives should be (3) to increase their employability;  (2) to understand whether being a better student (more information in diverse forms?) would make him more employable; and (1) to ascertain what the student wants: knowledge and its delivery, or employability? More surveys? Yes!
 

Best wishes.

We shall continue to debate on this issue as long as we do not appreciate the difference between 'education' and 'training'.

The 'student' is neither an 'apprentice', nor an 'understudy', nor a 'mentee', nor an 'intern'.

Beyond the normal principles of 'goal-setting' and 'reinforcement' there are few similarities between educating a student and training an athlete. If we are 'TRAINING" a student, pedagogical principles would be the same: Setting S.M.A.R.T goals; Modelling; Grand visualization of future; Continuous feedback & corrective coaching; Incentivisation through expansion of self-efficacy and purpose; and Development of values to keep cool under duress or success.

Re: FW: [MTC Global] Secrets to being a better student

Everybody wants to go heaven but nobody wants to die. That's the situation with students today. They want the best of the jobs & brands but they don't want to prepare for it. I completely agree when my respected friends here say that students hardly show any interest or willingly participate in industry integrated activities.

Re: [MTC Global] [Discussion] Management Teacher's Competency Index

Hai Learned friends,

Good morning. 

I think API will measure the academic performance of the institution and not the individual faculty performance.

Prof. Dutt Ideas looks good theoretically and also exiting. 

My only concern is how to standardize and develop a scale to measure and create an Index, as every institute has it's own way of dealing with academics , each individual faculty is unique in many aspects , including teaching in a class room and handling students as well as academic work
