Tech fest kicks off at RVR Institute

Tech fest kicks off at RVR Institute

Atechnical fest, titled Techno Era 2012 RVR, was inaugurated at the Institute of Engineering & Technology of Sri Indu group of institutions on Saturday. Over 2,000 students from more than 100 colleges across Hyderabad and also from various other districts participated in the fest.

Dr M Anji Reddy, director, Directorate of University Foreign Relations, JNTUH, was the chief guest, and V Surender Reddy, ACP Ibrahimpatnam, was the guest of honour. 

Addressing students after inaugurating the fest, Anji Reddy appreciated the modern infrastructure, wellequipped

labs, state-of-the-art laboratories and classrooms. He also said that in the coming years the campus could be developed as a deemed university, considering its existing facilities. Surender, in his address, complimented the

students for their discipline. He mentioned that if every student could maintain good discipline and creatively apply knowledge, they could do wonders and achieve any position in the world.

The secretary and correspondent of the college, Anup Chakravarthy, said that nothing was impossible in this world. “Everything is possible if we put our sincere efforts and skills.

None can hack our website

EAMCET has developed a fool-proof exam system which other states want to replicate, says convener

Not long ago, a hightech racket was busted in Kadapa district where some cyber fugitives led by one Gurivi Reddy used bluetooth mode to answer questions while the EAMCET examination was going on. The convenor of EAMCET, Ramana Rao, who came to know about it beforehand, spent some anxious moments on whether to cancel the exam at the eleventh hour. Thanks to the cooperation of the intelligence agencies, the illegal mode of answering questions was averted, but the incident led to some serious soul-searching among the top brass of EAMCET.

Ramana Rao, along with a team of IT experts of JNTU, embarked on creating a foolproof model for EAMCET exam. Two years of careful and thorough research, unveiled a 100 per cent online procedure the first of its kind in India. It has been put to test on a trial basis from this year itself. In a conversation with The Hans India, Ramana Rao narrated the features, which, in his opinion will mark a revolutionary change in exam patterns. Explaining the advantages, Ramana Rao said “This will substantially reduce time, money, and inconvenience to thousands of Eamcet aspirants. With just a mouse click one can give exams from home or from any internetconnected computer. There are no printing costs to be incurred on applications forms, no logistics, no staff for checking, etc. once the new system is implemented. The problems of loss of  applications or applications not reaching the students will also be eliminated.” The certificates like nativity, SSC are not required before the exam as they can be submitted at the time of admission, he added. On avoiding malpractices, Ramana Rao said, “the candidates’ details from their SSC certificates are stored in our server. Candidates have to enter the hall ticket numbers of SSC and intermediate exam. When we click that number, all his details will be displayed. In case of any doubt, we can cross-check. As the photo also appears on the screen, we can confirm the details. No one can apply twice. No one can apply with some other’s photo or number. No one else can write the exam in the name of others. There is absolutely no scope for morphing.”

Mentioning that the manual data backup is at EAMCET office, he said, “Once a candidate applies, he can take the acknowledgment directly within minutes from his system. He can save the application copy in his system and take out a print. Our approval appears within seconds. The confirmation will be automatically done and the same will be emailed to the candidates. An SMS will also be sent.”

If a candidate, by mistake, gives a wrong hall ticket number and wants to correct it, he/she will have to send

us an email or call up the helpline centres at our office or visit personally and to correct the issue. It’s only after a check is done are the corrections carried and stored. This is done to avoid mischief. To help rural students, some colleges were identified as helpline centres.” The aspirants can download the hall tickets till the last minute of the commencement of exam.

“At the exam centre, we ask the students to affix one colour photo at the given space. He also has to sign before the invigilator and his thumb impression will also be taken. This system is in place on police advice. Taking thumb impression means indirectly warning ineligible or fake candidates,” he said

“Even now, we are working on some other firewalls. We are sure that our system cannot be hacked and remodeled. We have noticed that a number of fake candidates appear for the exam and someone else gets the seat. With the latest system, such possibilities are a thing of past,” a confidant Ramana Rao said.

• 100 per cent online applications
• EAMCET convener explains advantages 
• Online corrections not allowed
• More seats likely to be filled this year

According to Ramana Rao, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala want to follow the model.

Indus: Creating model Indians

The school takes pride in inculcating the right values in its students. A school is no more just a class comprising teachers and a few impressionable minds. It is now a veritable temple of learning, a place where tomorrow’s citizens are made, a space where true Indians are taking shape. Indus International School in Hyderabad believes in these very concepts.

Indus: Creating model Indians

Indus International School, Hyderabad, provides a totally balanced environment focused on shaping children into leaders of tomorrow. With comprehensive education through a developmental approach, the school promotes order, independence, a love for learning, a connection to the world and a sense of social responsibility.

Founded on the ethos of "In Omnia Paratus", prepared for all challenges, the school nurtures the leaders of tomorrow, through a unique and well-defined curriculum and a dedicated focus on "learning beyond the classroom." The medium of instruction is English and the curriculum planned is the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme from Prep to Grade 5, the Indus Middle School Programme from Grade 6 to Grade 10, culminating in the CIE (Cambridge International Certificate) of Secondary Examination in Grades 9 & 10. Students are awarded the International Certificate of Education (ICE) after Grade 10. The school offers the IB Diploma Program for grades 11 and 12.

With an infrastructure that supports excellence in all areas, Indus International School provides a wide array of world-class facilities in academics, sports, IT, and habitat.

The School is managed by the CEO and Board of Trustees, comprising members representing varied fields

such as real estate development, Information Technology and consumer durables. 

With facilities that support excellence in all areas, Indus International School is among the best-equipped schools in India. The infrastructure has been suitably planned to accommodate learning, leadership development and an international curriculum.

Classrooms are spaciously designed to seat 25 students, and are equipped with play areas for pre-school, projection systems, computer facilities and lockers. The well-equipped amphitheater has a capacity of over 1000. Separate boys and girls residential facilities based on the 'house' concept, are each under the close supervision of an experienced houseparent. Every living room module is based on semi-independent cabins. Not just education the school is serious about providing infrastructure to parents who drop their wards to school. Parking area within the school premises provides adequate parking space for cars and school buses.

He way to equip students at Indus, to face the challenges of the 21st century is to educate them through a curriculum which is a healthy mix of academics, creativity and character - a curriculum based on multiple intelligences. Such an approach nurtures the specific talents of the student and in this process, learning becomes fun.

A strong future orientation is given to the students, to familiarize them with emerging technologies and relevant issues. Biotechnology, Graphics and Animation, Nanotechnology, Robotics, IT for all, Wellness, Ecology, and Bio-Diversity are integrated into the curriculum. Community-based activities form a part of school learning to build qualities of citizenship, compassion and empathy. The school is seeking authorization

from IBO for the PYP program. Admissions to Indus International School are subject to vacancies in the respective grades and based on a written test for Grade 6 upwards.

Admission tests for Grade 6 and above are held on all working days. The outcome of the tests is usually announced on a working day within a week. Students for Grade 6 and above are assessed in English, Math and Science subjects (age and grade appropriate). Those seeking admission to the Primary years are interviewed by the grade teacher to ascertain their readiness for a particular grade. The tests are set on an age appropriate, international curricula.

Our education helps students survive under pressure

Our education helps students survive under pressure

Says the Dean of Sri Chaitanya Junior College, Kukatpally, about the rigorous 

courses offered at the institute

Of late they are being condemned for conducting a no-playonly-work schedule, which the thinkers believe curbs a student’s personality development. To this Shankar Rao, the Dean and also a Mathematics teacher of Sri Chaitanya Junior College, Kukatpally, argues, “The study hours are definitely long but that prepares the student to survive under pressure. They learn to work hard, which in turn helps them in future to adjust in professional and as well as personal life.”

Sri Chaitanya Junior College, Kukatpally has seven branches under it; each branch specialising in different entrance test like EAMCET, AIEEE, IIT, etc. For instance there is a separate building for teaching IIT aspirants. Intermediate first year and second year students are segregated in 15 different batches, with the batch comprising the cream of students starting at 7 am and ending at about 9-10 pm. Says a first year student K Anusha, who is preparing for IIT entrance test, “I am okay studying for long hours because I have an ambition to crack the toughest exam on the earth-IIT! Once I take admission in IIT, I will work towards developing Science and Technology of India.” Agrees Professor K Venkateshwar Rao, another Mathematics teacher for IIT batches, “I agree that students are missing out on fun and free time but quality training is important to succeed in this competitive world.”

Dean: Shankar Rao
"We prepare the student to survive under pressure. They learn to work hard, which in turn helps them in future to adjust in  professional as well as personal life" 

So how is quality education being imparted to a student? “I start teaching the subject by explaining the basic concept to students. Once they understand basic of the subject, I move on to teach them according to the entrance test they will appear for. For instance, state engineering test is easier than national level entrance tests, so I teach them according to EAMCET subject, then AIEEE and later IIT,” explains Professor Rao.

Every week the junior college conducts tests to evaluate how much the student has grasped in that particular week.

Will the 15 year olds not crack under pressure of weekly tests and fear of failing in the distant (final) test? “Yes, a few students cannot survive stress. Students today are more mature. Depression attacks them easily. For this, we have special counseling classes where an eminent psychiatrist like Dr Pattabhiram takes session to motivate students and help them lessen their burden. During the class the counsellor identifies students who are low on confidence and hold a special class for them,” informs the Dean. “Apart from taking the counsellor’s help, students are free to talk to any faculty member about complains, suggestions, and also their academics demands,” he adds. Parents can also take the administration’s support to discipline a rebellious child.

The current statistics say that India students fail to clinch a job owing to lack of communication skills. Does the institute not offer classes in improving their English language? “We do have English as a subject. But excelling in that subject is not the priority. This is a skill students need to lean during their early years like while in school. We aim to give them training in specialised stream of Mathematic and Sciences,” answers the Dean.

Distance learning, a student-friendly course

Distance learning, a student-friendly course

Says S Jeelani, Director, Centre for Distance and Virtual Learning, University of Hyderabad (UoH)

• What has made distance education so popular among students? 

Flexible learning and knowledge based on employability attract students. They get education at their doorsteps. Courses that have commercial value in job market are being included in distance learning. When students invest three years, they expect job opportunities, which they get at the end of the course.

• Are there systematic efforts to make distance education popular?

Enrolment of students in higher education in India is only 12% while on international level it is 23%. We are far behind the developed countries like the USA, where more than 60% students enrol in higher education. The Government of India wants to bridge this gap by starting institutes that offer student-friendly distance learning courses. However, there is less number of institutions which offers this course.

• What distance learning courses are offered in UoH? How are they different from other courses?

UoH offers 17 Post Graduate Diploma Programmes in streams including science, law, humanities and arts. Syllabus of the courses is designed in a way that makes is self explanatory and compensates for the classroom teaching. Study material is designed by experts and it is being constantly updated. Most other Universities lack these facilities.

• What is the structure of courses offered by UoH?

Duration of courses is one year with two semesters. Students have to complete their assignments that carry 10% of total marks. Compulsory classroom education of 60-80 hours depends on the course. Syllabus is completed in 10 to 15 days during which free hostel facility is availed by students.

• How are the placement opportunities?

We have tied up with NIRD and GVK Bioscience that will offer placement opportunities to students here in distance learning. Fee amount ranges from Rs 5,000 to Rs 16,000.

ASK THE COUNSELLOR

Which foreign language should I study?

• Which foreign language is in demand? I will pass out from class X in a few months. I am confused as to which subject to choose in my intermediate. Maths, Biology... all seem alike… please give me your advice -Arshad, 15

The best way to choose a course is to ask yourself what you like to do? What you want to be in life? What is your aptitude and where your interest lies? Ask what your strengths and weaknesses are? Then try and match an occupation accordingly. Do a research of the career you want to study. Always remember that all fields have equal importance and equal scope. Never opt for a subject that others want to study.

• I am in class XII. I want to learn a foreign language. Can you suggest which foreign language is in demand? And why? -Kiran, 18

Out of all languages, demand for Spanish and Chinese, of late, is very high. In countries like France, Italy, and Portugal and in southern states of Brazil, Spanish is the second most commonly spoken language. According to a recent survey Spanish is also the third largest language used in the internet (web). Chinese language is catching up because China is expected to be the global power in near future. Then there are some certificate courses and diploma courses. Candidates who have done 10+2 are eligible for such courses. If interested, you can later on even go for higher education in the same.

• I have done my BDS from Davengere, Karnataka. Now do I go for further specialisation? Which stream would be advisable? -Nikhil, 24

BDS profession deals with the inspection and treatment of teeth, gums and other parts of the oral acavity. A dentist especially takes care of problems affecting teeth. Common procedures are removal, correction and replacement of decayed, damaged or lost teeth. There are a number of specializations that you can opt for like:

1. Endodontic: Practice of basic clinical science including the biology of the normal pulp, diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases and injuries of the pulp and root canal procedures.
2. Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology: Research and diagnosis of diseases using clinical, radiographic, microscopic, biochemical or other examinations. 
3. Oral Surgery: Diagnosis and treatment of oral disease, in particular benign and malignant tumours of the jaws, head and neck. They also perform surgeries for sleep disorder.
4. Orthodontics: Diagnosis, prevention and treatment of dental and facial irregularities.
5. Pedodontics: Dental stream dealing with the care for teeth, gums and mouth of children.

Preschool- what to look for

Preschool education is an important t topic among parents. If you are the parent of a child who is about to enter a playschool, hours are spent to discuss what type of preschool you want to admit the child.

Distance of the preschool from the house is considered first. Parents are advised to look for the facilities- games, speciousness of the place etc. One should talk to the teachers at the preschool and gauge whether he can handle your child in those two hours every day. 

Teacher or trainer should be very soft and caring who can take care of your child. You should also look for what will be taught at the preschool like poems and stories. It is the preschool where your child learn attitude. The physical games that are at the preschool should also be looked at.

Whether these games will provide your child required dose of physically activities with fun. You should also ask what type of indoor activities would be involved. The ratio of kids to educators should be minimum and should not be more than 5:1. Otherwise educators cannot give enough time to children. Lady educator should be given preference to.

Children start to interact in the preschool only. Child learn social skills, independence. “Children sit together for a lunch, serve themselves, spend free time, talk with friends. It helps child to grow in healthy way,” says Anita, an educator at Little Genius Preschool Erra Manzil, Hyderabad. Final decision to decide which preschool, the child should admitted should be taken with proper discussion.

Necessity of Preschools

Number of parents thinks that skills like social interaction will develop in their children even if they do not got to the preschools, maybe not as quickly as with play school experience, but then what's the hurry? Sina Reddy did not feel the need to put either of her daughter or son into a play school. She says, "I think play schools are money-making schemes that are convenient places for working mothers to keep their children for some hours a day.

I feel that children are under so much pressure today that there is no need to channelize even their free time."

She feels that they should be allowed to enjoy their time the way that they like. In her opinion, if a mother is a housewife and spends enough time with her children, there is no need for a play school. What about separation anxiety? Reddy thinks that it can easily be overcome if mothers were permitted to sit in the classrooms for the first days of nursery school to ease their children into the school routine.

There are other school of thoughts that think that preschools are necessary for the growth of the child. Mothers who are not working professionals also prefer to send their children to preschools. As most of the parents send their children to preschools, it has become trend.

WHEN SCHOOLS GO TRULY INTERNATIONAL

 

When schools go truly international

With many foreigners settling in the city for job and business prospects, admissions in international schools are catching up. Now, native parents have also started looking at these schools for their child’s global exposure. 

While Hyderabad is known for being one of the best places for the study of technology and producing maximum number of IITians, of late the city is also giving room to several international schools. The international schools of Hyderabad can be classified in three different categories, namely International, Local International and Bilingual schools. Well, as the name suggests, these ‘International’ schools follow an International methodology right from the admission procedure of the child to molding him into a global citizen. 

Target students: While 60 per cent of the class strength in these schools consists of kids of foreign staff settled in Hyderabad for businesses and jobs, in recent times Hyderabadi parents have also turned to these schools for providing a global exposure to their children. 

Education tools: The International schools have well equipped digital class rooms where teaching is done with the help of projectors, video, audio lectures and presentations. Here emphasis if given on practical learning with the help demonstrations rather than theoretical knowledge. Their libraries are digital and access to it is not a thing only for high school students. Tiny tots of primary school are taught to inculcate the habit of reading books and newspapers. While a regular school has a science laboratory in its campus only for class X or class 12th student, in International schools, the practice starts at a primary level. Since latest technology like LCDs and computers are available in full strength, the child’s ability to use technology improves. 

A few international schools have tie-ups with highly prestigious educational academies overseas which test the students in various factors. 

Infrastructure: The campus and class rooms of an International School are spacious. The class rooms are decorated with colourful article to give the child a homely atmosphere. From class rooms and school buses being air-conditioned to doctors and nurses available on the school campus, the child has every facility at school that he would find at home and beyond that. For parents who complain about their child not eating healthy, international schools may solve the problem as these institutes offer food, including breakfast, lunch and post noon snack. The diet chart is formulated keeping in view the health of the students. 

Also, most of the schools use ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software, a management tool. With the help of this tool, most of the administration work is handled by technology that results in better and flawless monitoring. 

Co-curricular activities: Most parents send their children to special classes for them to learn music, dance, painting, swimming, yoga, sculpture, and sports like cricket, basket ball, etc. However, these schools combine all these co-curricular activities as part of academic syllabus. There are several clubs for each activity and students can join one or more clubs depending on their interests. They should also be prepared to write a test even in the supposedly called “extra subjects”. Soft skills like communication ability and writing are enhanced among students by conducting poetry recitation, elocution sessions and extempore right from the primary level. These schools aim to producing leaders. 

Summer time: During summer vacations, international schools organise camps which take students on field trips to local places and also outstation.
