16. Feed back

From students• First hand experience for students to understand the rural

life and conditions• Zeal to learn traditional/value addition rural skills• Difficult to contact farm women during day time due to

their involvement in home and farm activities• Students need prior training in agriculture related

technologies• Safe accommodation for girl students needed• All India Tour, RAWE and Industrial placement all in same

Sem and the huge expenditure

• Farm women learnt home science, agriculture and allied technologies

• Students were viewed as role models by the adolescent girls and farm women

• Rural folk got motivated to send their children for higher education.

• Exposure trainings were beneficial for SHGs, Youth organizations

• The programme should be continued through out the year.

Farm Families

• Updating of knowledge & skills

Host institutions (Placement institutions/ industries)

• Opportunity for hands on training• Job creators than seekers• Highlighted the success stories of the farm

families through media • Students possess theoretical knowledge;

needs practical orientation• Need to increase the duration of placement • Meghalaya - problems due geopolitical issues

and frequent bandh.

Faculty• Students developed dignity of labour and confidence• Duration for skill development needs to be increased• Co-operation needed by development departments• Allotment of vehicle was essential exclusively for RAWE• Private sectors and organisations/units and

practitioners are not positive towards accommodating student trainees

• RAWE guide lines should be clear and common for all Home Science colleges

• No incentives for being a group teacher; teachers should be selected based on course load; TA DA not separately ear marked

17. Important innovations/technologies introduced as part of RAWE

• Low cost nutritious value added products for health security

• Low cost play materials for all round development of children

SHGs/Local institutions

Suggestions for improvement• Provision should be made to meet the expenses of

students towards stay, fees of placement institutions and conveyance

• Basic facilities including health, security and transport are very essential for successful RAWE

included in the same semester• Need based interventions be planned
