2.3.1: Student centric methods, such as experiential learning, participative learning and problem solving methodologies are used for enhancing their learning experiences
The IGDTUW always believed in using teaching methods beneficial for the student's holistic learning. To impart holistic development, various innovative methods of teaching are utilized so that every student gets benefited. The University uses experimental and practical techniques for a better understanding of the concepts and hands-on learning. The class is divided into small groups of just 25-35 students so that the students' active participation is ensured during the teaching-learning process. During the semester, the students were given different practical assignments, and projects are given to the students to apply their imagination, learning methods, and problem-solving methods to complete the project goals successfully.
Lectures: The lectures are delivered employing PowerPoint presentations and the conventional blackboard teaching method. These methods help the faculty effectively impart the course content leading to better grasping at the student level. IGDTUW has a system of CBCS i.e choice-based credit system. This system allows the students to take subjects of their choice to move toward their future goals.
Experiential Learning:
Students are encouraged to take industrial internships or work on a project for hands-on learning based on the student's interest. During the project-based learning, the students develop their ideas and work towards a deeper understanding of a subject matter or product development. During an Industrial internship, the students understand working in an industry better, and they also work on sector-provided projects. Respective departments regularly organize industrial visits to provide a better insight into the current challenges and work areas.
Participative learning:
The students are encouraged to participate in various competitions at national and international levels. Miscellaneous quizzes, departmental seminars, project presentations, and research paper writing are organized regularly to ensure the students' active participation and the student's holistic development. During the semester, eminent industrial personalities are invited for the guest lectures/expert lectures. Various hands-on workshops are conducted for better learning and concept building.
