Preface

Shah K. S. Arts and V. M. Parekh Commerce College, Kapadwanj was established

by Kapadwanj Kelavni Mandal, Kapadwanj in the year 1961, in order to impart

higher education in the field of arts and commerce for the residents of Kapadwanj

taluka and nearby areas. For quite a long time this college remained as one of the

premier institutions in Kapadwanj taluka and during last 54 years, the college has

contributed in the field of higher education and also catered to the needs of the

society and has proved its significance in the field of character development and

social consciousness. The institution has celebrated its Golden Jubilee celebration

in December 2010, on a grand scale wherein we have invited our former faculty

members, alumni as well as the stakeholders and the former faculty members were

felicitated by the institution for the valuable services rendered by them.

In fact, Kapadwanj may be termed as an epicenter of the eastern part of the Kheda

district. Kapadwanj is a semi urban town which was famous for its cotton

production and marketing in the olden times. Agriculture and Dairy products are

major sources of income and revenue both in Kapadwanj taluka in particular and

Kheda district in general.

Kapadwanj Kelavni Mandal has contributed a lot to the social cause of the entire

region and with the foundation of this college; the students need not go for

education to other major cities like Nadiad or Ahmedabad. A meaningful and

successful tradition of Shah K. S. Arts & V. M. Parekh commerce College,

Kapadwanj enables this institution as the synonym of awakening, brightness and

concreteness in the field of higher education in Kapadwanj taluka in particular and

the region in general.

business, trading, manufacturing, administration, social services, judiciary and

education.

The college was named after Shah Keshavlal Somabhai who donated for Arts

faculty and Vadilal Mansukhram Parekh who donated for commerce faculty.

Shah K. S. Arts & V. M. Parekh Commerce College enjoys a very good reputation

from the examination point of view in the Gujarat University. With a view of

transparency in conducting examinations, the Gujarat University has entrusted our

institution to conduct the semester-end university examinations in the capacity of

Sub-Centre since 2014-15, covering the colleges of Kheda and Anand districts. The

University has appreciated our performance in the same and activity continues. Not

only this, but also our students have performed very well in the field of cultural

activities as well as NCC and sports.

Kapadwanj Kelavni Mandal, which manages the college, is presently having Shri

Ashwin Dani as the president. Mr. Dani is a prominent industrialist of the country,

who owns the prestigious Asian Paints, Mumbai.

Weaknesses:

Communication in English is a problem area for our students as they come

from rural background and don’t have such exposure.

We don’t have canteen facilities on the campus.

Due to shortage of regular staff and the austerity measures of the

government in recruitments, we have to depend on the visiting faculty.

After introduction of semester system, the faculty members could not spare

much time for research works/publications.

Opportunities:

Since a majority of students belong to rural background, therefore, higher

education is most essential for them in order to secure their future and social

mobility.

We have good opportunities to induct new job-oriented/employment-friendly

courses.

We have an opportunity to introduce more community-oriented

developmental programmes.

We have an opportunity to begin new short term job-oriented certificate

courses.

We have an opportunity to begin P.G. in more subjects and English as a

principal subject.

Challenges:

Increasing rate of unemployed graduates at present.

To provide and facilitate quality placements for rural background students.

research papers in various seminars, conferences, workshops and

conventions from time to time. These are conducted by various

subject-bodies, state level academies, Oriental Conferences and

by other institutions/universities.

The institution arranges educational tours with special references

to industries/productive units and historical-cultural-natural

spots in the state.

The institution has a tradition to seek feedbacks from various

stakeholders, especially from parents, students and alumni

besides other stakeholders.

The university examination results of the institution are taken up

for analysis and efforts are made to improve in this direction in

the staff meetings under the chairmanship of the Head of the

institution.

The curriculum is decided by the affiliating Gujarat University,

Ahmedabad after a well deliberated process from time to time. As

such any modification/addition/alteration and improvisation falls

under the purview of the university in consultation with the

respective Boards of Studies in the concerned subjects.

Our institution does not offer any Degree Programmes other than

those which are given by our affiliating Gujarat University,

Ahmedabad. Therefore, we are bound to follow the curriculum

prescribed by Gujarat University.

the Quality improvement of the core activities of the college.

Title of the practices:

Our best practice is known as :

Literature, Discipline, Welfare and Cleanliness

Goal:

To make students familiar with a creative writer, aiming to

help to fill the gap between literature in theory and practice.

To make students aware about the importance of discipline in

life and social responsibility.

To create consciousness about cleanliness among students.

The context:

To emphasize on imminent significance of human values and

sensibilities as reflected in literature in the crucial age of

Globalization.

To make students realize the greater importance of discipline

in life.

Self-realization among students about cleanliness.

Challenges Faced:

To attract the attention of the students of commerce may be

termed as a challenge for us.

To maintain discipline for the students of first year remains a

tough task at the initial stage, since they are accustomed to

school atmosphere.

Preparing students to deal with dirt.

The Practice:

Being an Arts & Commerce college imparting education at

B.A/M.A level, the college has developed a regular practice to

conduct annual lecturer series after the Jnanpeeth awardee poet

Rajendra Shah, who belonged to Kapadwanj. The objective is

to make students realize about the remarkable contribution of

Rajendra Shah to Contemporary Indian Poetry.

Besides, we also have a practice to organize a regular literary

programme Meet the Author in which Sahitya Akademi

awardee author is invited to share his creative experiences and

reading from his work. In this way the students are given a

chance to meet a writer in person. It helps to solve the queries

of the students about literature.

The institution has raised a fund to help poor students out of

money collected as a fine from students who disobey rules and

regulations of the institution and discipline. It may be termed

as measure towards a positive direction helping to maintain

discipline in the campus.

We undergo with a practice of regular drive of campus

cleanliness and class room decoration. It helps to consolidate a

sense of belonging and significance cleanliness and

community service.

Evidence of success:

Students actively participate in the literary events like Meet the

Author and Rajendra Shah Memorial lecture series. In this way we

have become successful to a remarkable extent, to motivate the

students of commerce, besides those of literature. Students have not

only actively participated with zeal but also create a mindful

atmosphere among them about the cleanliness, self-discipline and

self-consciousness about clean ambience and clean society.

Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

The commerce students have by and large comparatively less

interest in literature and thus we try to encourage them

towards literature.

At the time of designing the drive implementation, following

problems have been identified:

-Creating working groups

-Scheduling the drive

-Preparing students to deal with dirt.

Following resources were required to overcome the above

mentioned. Challenges/problems:

-Well planned co-ordination and lead of the drive.

-Cleaning devices/equipment/active involvement of staff

members/appraisal and Incentives from governing body.

Notes (Optional)

- Any other information that may be relevant and important to

the reader for adopting/ implementing the best practice in

their institution about 150 words.

(1) Title of the practice:-

To sanskritize society Goal:

To make students familiar with the richness of Sanskrit.

To create an interest among various walks of society towards

the linguistic beauty of Sanskrit.

To give a glimpse at traditional Indian heritage of knowledge

available in Sanskrit scriptures.

To encourage Sanskrit literacy among the students and create

employability avenues.

To make Sanskrit as a skillful and effective medium of

expression by way of imparting self-confidence and

soundness of knowledge.

The context:

The institution imparts instruction in Sanskrit at B.A. and

M.A. level.

Indian culture heritage and knowledge is available in Sanskrit

scriptures.

We do attempt to make aware society at intellectual heritage

and Indian tradition of richness from the standpoint of

knowledge.

In joint collaboration with Sanskrit Bharti, Gujarat, our

institution conducts spoken Sanskrit classes as per the need.

The students are prepared to appear at various examinations

such as Praveshika, Pradipika, Pramodika and Pravahika.

Challenges Faced:

In this regard we are faced with the following challenges:

Lack of Fund

Lack of Staff

Shortage of required Infrastructure

Page 194: Manual for self-study Colleges.pmd

NAAC – Self Study Report of Shah. K. S. Arts & V. M.Parekh Commerce College, Kapadwanj (Guj)

Page 194

The practice:

The institution conducts spoken Sanskrit classes.

We also conduct Workshops, give assignments and provide

writing materials.

Our faculty makes significant efforts to establish continuous

contacts with the school teachers as well as students from the

catchment area without charging any fees for Sanskrit spoken

classes.

Evidence of Success:

The following table shows the total number of successful learners of

various examinations held by Sanskrit Bharti (Gujarat) during last five

years.

Total No. of Students (Year-wise)

Sr.no. Name of

Examination

2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Total

1 Praveshika 31 10 95 123 150 485

2 Pradipika 31 10 96 106 152 471

3 Pramodika 16 11 04 51 25 136

4. Pravahika 16 13 04 51 25 130

Total 1222

As a positive impact of the above mentioned best practice, the

results of the students of Sanskrit have improved at the university

examinations.

Spoken Sanskrit classes have helped students to overcome the fear

of speaking, reading and writing in Sanskrit vis-à-vis a special

attachment for the language has also been developed.

It has also helped to develop consciousness about moral values,

human implications and a feeling for social service.

35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans:

Strengths:

Well qualified, experienced committed and dedicated faculty.

Result of Sanskrit student remaining outstanding.

Weaknesses:

Governments Policy of not recruiting the teaching faculty to replace superannuating

teachers is a major drawback.

Opportunities:

Department of Sanskrit finds and opportunity for introducing value added and add-on

as well as certificate courses.

Exploring the possibility of introducing job oriented course, like proof reading

manuscript auditing, Vastu Shastra Jyotish Vidya etc.

Challenges:

For Gujarati speaking students are to be motivated to develop communication skill in

Sanskrit.

Students coming from rural background as well as those belonging to weaker sections

of the society show relatively less attitude towards employability Sanskrit related jobs.

Future Plans:

To introduce advance level Sanskrit certificate course.

To conduct national level seminar every year with the collaboration of other

institution.

To conduct workshops for students research scholars faculty members & Teachers for

further development of teaching methods in the subject.

Planning for every year to celebrated the Sanskrit Day.

Training programme for Devangari script typing skill to the students on Computer.

35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans:

Strengths:

Well qualified, experienced and dedicated faculty.

Extra Classes, Assignment and Project-work.

Weaknesses:

Lack of ICT provision for classes.

Due to large number of students in commerce, inadequate personal attention.

Some students opt for economics out of sheer compulsion (on account of limited

options of other subjects) and hence do not show much interest in the subject of

Economics.

Opportunities:

The department has an opportunity for introducing more self-financed and add-on and

certificate courses.

Challenges:

Initiating agencies to visit the college for campus placement.

Rural background and weaker sections students showing negative attitude towards

employability, hence, steps may be taken in this regard.

Future Plans:

Collaboration with the industry for placements.

The Department is also planning to introduce computer based Technical courses like

Statistics for economics, population studies and multimedia programming courses.

Coaching for competitive examinations.

Major/minor research projects to be taken up by faculty.

The Department is exploring the possibilities of personality development cell for

Economics students to train them in soft skills, after the college hours and make them

self-sufficient.

Strengths:

We have experienced and qualified faculty.

The department serves to instruct mother tongue Gujarati not only as a language but

also it transmits the potential of Gujarati literature at large.

There is a remarkable impact of the regional dialect among the students which may

affect the correct pronunciation of the language on its standard level.

Opportunities:

Job opportunity for teachers

Job opportunities in print media.

Job opportunities as proof readers.

Challenges:

To improve the in-depth knowledge and insight of Gujarati language and literature in

order to prepare students for employability.

Future Plans:

Introduction of short term courses like Public Relations and Gujarati Journalism

Coaching for competitive examinations.

More Major/Minor Research Projects to be taken up.

35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans:

Strengths:

Well experienced and qualified faculty.

Well-equipped Food & Nutrition as well as Clothing & Textile Laboratories.

The department helps economically backward students by providing journals and

other required materials.

Weaknesses:

Lack of awareness about the scope and importance of Home Science in the society in

general.

Opportunities:

The course content is such that after undergoing the programme one has the

opportunities to opt for self-employment fields like beauty parlours, mehndi designers

etc.

After graduation in Home Science, the students have comparatively more

opportunities with regard to job placement in various fields such as Extension

Workers, CDTO in Anganwadi Centers, ICDS Officers, Textile and Fashion

Designers as well as Interior Decoration Designers etc.

Page 250

Challenges:

The department is exploring possibilities of extending its academic research by

entering into multi-level tie-ups with other departments like Psychology.

Future Plans:

To empower girls students and to make society aware regarding different branches of

Home Science and to emphasize on the increasing importance of learning the subject

in day-to day life.

Strengths:

Well qualified and experienced staff.

04 well equipped and well ventilated classrooms.

One computer lab with 24 computers.

Commerce students are well placed every year.

Affordable fee structure is a strength of the college for B.Com. students.

Weaknesses:

A large number of students pursuing for B.Com. programme belong to rural

background as well as with slow frequency of comprehending commerce subject

which is, on the contrary in pace with commerce, business, trading and

entrepreneurship.

Government policy of not recruiting teaching faculty to replace superannuating

teachers is a major drawback for us.

Opportunities:

The department of Commerce sees ample opportunities to start add-on, certificate and

if possible self-financed programmes.
