Best Practices

Best out of Waste
Objective of the practice:

• To develop creativity amongst the students.
• To improve teaching methodology
• To impart knowledge to the students with practical applications.
• To help students to understand the theoretical concepts with prototypemodels.
• To enable the students to make optimum usage of Waste. 

The Context

The Department of Zoology is established in the year 2018.  It has been felt that the teaching-learning can be enhanced by showing the models. However, due to the paucity of the funds and non-availability of the models in the market it has been difficult to implement this objective.  Therefore, the Department has taken an initiative to motivate the students to prepare models from the available waste.

Practice

• The Department is provided with the lab material in the carton boxes.
• The students used the available cartons and thermacol sheets to prepare the models.
• The preparation of the models made the students understand the structure, development and many other biological processes.
• It helped in developing a sense of pride in the students.
• The models prepared by the students are effectively used in the regular teaching-learning process.  

Evidence of Success

• The problems encountered in the class and laboratory while teaching structures to the students are resolved effectively.
• It helped the students to understand the concept very effectively.
• Students are encouraged to spread messages to society through poster presentation competitions to promote creativity amongst the student community.
• The students learnt to utilise and recycle the waste material effectively.  
• The faculty and students from other Departments were motivated to take up such tasks.

Problems encountered and resources required:

1. Handling of models is without any damage, and breakage is essential. Care needs to be taken to safeguard the models.
2. Designing the model depends on the interest and involvement of faculty and students.
