Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department strongly believes in project-based learning as a means of developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students engage in both individual and group projects that reflect real-world challenges in education.
Mini-projects are introduced from the second year, allowing students to apply theoretical concepts to practical situations. These projects typically last 4-6 weeks and involve working with local schools or community organizations.
The final-year capstone project is a comprehensive endeavor where students design, implement, and evaluate an educational initiative. This project often leads to publishable outcomes or presentations at national conferences.
Students select their projects based on personal interests and faculty expertise. Each project is assigned a mentor who provides guidance throughout the process. Evaluation criteria include originality, feasibility, impact, and presentation quality.
