Policy for Advanced and Slow Learners

Dept of Journalism and Mass Communication

Advanced and slow Learners

Advanced learners are the student s who understand  a taught topic relatively  faster than the other students in the class and attain high scores. They have more potential and talent then the others in the class.

Slow learners on the other hand mostly lag behind in their academic pursuit and find it difficult to understand the subject. The poor performance may not be sign of the poor capacity or talent but may be due to inappropriate teaching methods. Socio-economic background, lack of motivations  and support , unorganized learning  practices  or even the inability  to  converse in devised medium.

Preamble

The primary goal of creation of this policy is to assess the learning capacity of the students and provide them guidance accordingly. Specific objectives are enlisted as under :

  • Identification of the slow learners and advanced learners in the class.
  • To develop significant strategies and scientific implementations to benefit both the advanced and slow learners.
  • To boost up the confidence of slow learners and to minimize the barriers and help them out for enhancing their skills in respect of learning processes.
  • To encourage to the advanced learners to be excellent achievers.
  • To bridge the gap between slow and advanced learners.

In the ensuing section, detailed description of the strategies adopted for the slow learner and advanced learner identification process and appropriate guidance measures are highlighted.

Policy for identification of Slow and Advanced Learners

At the entry level , the students must be assessed on the basis of their performance in Learner’s  aptitude Test. Preceding  examination,  interest in chosen current subject, involvement in classroom teaching , and learning pace of students.

Slow Learners:

  • Class Test Scores : Less than 50%
  • Limited self-direction
  • Lack of motivation and interest.
  • Lagging behind in dealing with higher order problems
  • Low capacity to comprehend core concepts and their application.

Advanced learners:

  • Class Test Scores: Higher than 70%
  • High Grapsing Capacity
  • Quick Response
  • Self-motivated
  • High potential to deal with higher order problems
  • High capacity to comprehend core concepts and apply them in real world

situations.

Strategies undertaken for tackling slow and advanced learners

Slow Learners:

After the identification of the learners, the following departmental polices are adopted:

  • Remedial Classes:

Conducted regularly for the identified slow learners, as per the schedule prepared. During these classes, teachers are expected to engage in problem solving exercise, provide additional study materials and notes.ect.to the students, direct their creative energies towards concept clarifications as to bridge the knowledge gap and enable them to cope with the academic course to which they are   enrolled.

The mandates of the remedial classes thus would be:

  • Provision for simplified but standard  lecture notes/ course material (providing handwritten notes for easy understanding)
  • Giving additional learning materials like  question  bank, university question papers etc.
  • Revision of topics and practical.

(ii)  Organize  workshop  /seminars/ guidance  programmes

  • To develop Communication skills and art of  reading-learning.

(iii)      Guidance  through  Mentor-Ward Scheme:

Mentoring  and  connecting  with  faculty  members would  set up a healthy relationship  between  the  students  and  the  faculty. Small groups of 10-15 students with a faculty  mentor is formed for discussion and  open  thinking  towards the self.

 (iv)     Students Activities:

Conducting different activities to enhance their critical  and problem  solving skills orienting  them  to  think.

Advanced  Leaners

  • Advanced assignments or  tasks  would  be  assigned  to  advanced
  • Guidance to  crack  competitive  examinations  and  orient  them  for  better  career  planning and growth.
  • Stimulating the  research  aptitude  by  giving  them  an  opportunity  to pursue  internship/ acquire hands  on  training  on projects  beyond  the curriculum.
  • Inspire them  to  get  engaged  in  certificate/value added  courses  to nurture  their skills  on SWAYAM ,NPTEL, Course Era etc.
  • Motivate them  to  participate  in group  discussions, debates, elocution, quiz  to develop   analytical  and  problem  solving  abilities,
  • Organize activities to polish their critical  thinking

Improvement   Assessment

Each faculty  would  require  to  prepare  a  report  after  university  result  declaration  of  current  semester  which  shows  the improvement  in  performance  of  slow   learners  to  close  the  loop.

Following documents would  be  required  to  be  maintained:

  • Report of   result  of  class  test  / unit  test
  • List of  slow   learners
  • List of  advanced  learners
  • Report of  performance  improvement  for  sloe  learners

JOYEETA CHOWDHURY, Journalism and Mass Communication Hons(2018-2021)

Currently a Fellow Cohort (JSW Foundation)

It has been a privilege for me to secure a chance to initiate my educational journey from Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, Ramakrishna Sarada Mission Vivekananda Vidyabhavan. My life has taken a complete turn to visualise new innovative dreams and make my life more goal orientated. With the support of my faculties and institutions my entire journey became simpler. My faculties were supportive at every point so that I can drive my car in a risk-free manner. My learning about development communication and other aspects has levelled up my confidence to take productive step in my life.

I have joined JSW Foundation as a fellow cohort and will cooperatively work with the CSR team of the organisation for rural development. This would not have been possible without the initial support and guidance provided by my faculties and institution during my undergraduate days in this department and college.

 

Saswati Biswas, Journalism and Mass Communication (2019-2022)

Currently pursuing M.A in Journalism, Calcutta University

Being an alumna of Ramakrishna Sarada Mission Vivekananda Vidyabhavan (2019-2022), I had the privilege of studying Journalism and Mass Communication at our college and I can’t express enough how impactful and inspiring the professors in the JMC department have been not only on my academic journey but also on our lives. Their dedication to teaching, their extraordinary perception of the world and their passion for this field are truly remarkable. Each professor brings a unique perspective and expertise to the classroom, making the learning experience diverse and engaging. They fostered an environment where creativity and critical thinking were encouraged, allowing us to develop as well-rounded future journalists. And what I think I must need to mention here is the immense amount of help we got from our teachers during the Covid 19 lockdown. I can’t express enough gratitude for how the teachers in the Journalism and Mass Communication department stepped up during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Despite the challenges, they adapted swiftly to online teaching, ensuring we continued to

receive quality education. They shared all the study materials and encouraged us to stay strong during the tough times. Their dedication to our learning, constant support, and innovative approaches truly made a difference in our academic journey during these tough times. The most precious thing about our teachers is that they not only imparted knowledge necessary for the field but also guided us to be a better person every day. Their mentorship has also inspired a lifelong love for journalism. Those three years have been the best days of our lives to date. Our department slowly became our second home. Our teachers made us feel confident and encouraged us not only to study but also to participate in extracurricular activities. I remember the Toychathon 2021 was a whole new experience for all of us and that was only possible for our respected teachers. We consider ourselves lucky enough to be a part of our department. Though we will never be able to sit in the classroom with all our classmates and attend classes, this JMC Department and every person related to this place will remain a part of our lives which we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
