Introduction
The main objective of the Centre for South Asia Studies (CSAS) is the creation of an interdisciplinary arena aimed towards a holistic appreciation of thematic area studies, and with an aim to transcendtraditional impediments that tend to thwart integrative approaches. Not only the reproduction of existing knowledge, but also generation of new knowledge through research, ranks high in the agenda of CSAS.
Purpose
Dealing with compelling issues in the contemporary world, primarily, but not exclusively, concerned with Geo-Politics, linkages with the past and future are fait accompli. The focus is not only limited tobringing together the in-house capabilities available at the home institution, but also to actively collaborate and synergize with various other institutions; regionally, nationally and internationally
Function
The functioning of the CSAS being at a nascent stage, it was
considered prudent to focus on a limited number of aspects and issues
initially. During this while, the CSAS has had some exposure,
including first-hand experience with contact building and primary
data collection in Northern Province (Sri Lanka); a rather ignored
and less understood region, even within mainstream discourses in Sri
Lanka.
A prominent boost to the CSAS initiative has come
from the winning of the ERASMUS Plus project alongside the Universite
de La Reunion, to enable collaborative research and exchange ideas
and personnel between both the institutions. Not only is
ParvatibaiChowgule College is the first Institution in India to have
such a linkage with this French public university, this is also the
first time that Universite de La Reunion is cooperating through an
MoU with a Non-EU partner institution. It also encourages a wider
thematic canvas that will also promote collaborations at all levels,
across disciplines, as well as across the borders.

Introduction
Use of Information Communication Technology (ICT) in enhancing the
quality of education is something that almost everyone is interested
in, these days. Concepts like open content, open data, and open
resources, along with notions of transparency and easy access to data
and information is becoming a value. Massive Open Online Courses
(MOOCS) are being widely explored as alternatives and supplements to
traditional university courses. The workforce demands skills from
college graduates that are more often acquired from informal learning
experiences than in universities. Education paradigms are shifting to
include online learning, hybrid learning, and collaborative models. At
the same time, the teaching paradigms across all sectors too, besides
including the above, demand much more teamwork and collaboration. As
the abundance of resources and relationships made easily accessible
via the Internet grows, we are ever more challenged to revisit our
roles as educators.
Faculty training still does
not acknowledge the fact that digital media literacy continues its
rise in importance as a key skill in every discipline and profession.
The demand for personalized learning is not adequately supported by
current technology or practices on campus. Economic pressures and new
models of education are bringing unprecedented competition to the
traditional models of higher education. The emergence of new scholarly
forms of authoring, publishing, and researching, outpace sufficient
and scalable modes of assessment. Many challenges impacting technology
uptake are grounded in everyday realities that often make it difficult
to learn about, much less adopt, new tools and approaches.
A number of workshops, seminars and training programs in this area are
being held regularly. There are also many conferences and publications
in this area. However, still the adoption and effective utilization of
technology in education is low. One of the contributing factors is the
lack of awareness at the level of teachers and institutions, and
perhaps the lack of access to usable resources and inadequate sharing
of experiences among those working in this field. A centre like this
will help address this gap, by offering useful inputs and allowing for
sharing of experiences with the relevant community.
The infrastructure for the centre has been partly funded by RUSA
(Rashtriya Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan).
OBJECTIVES
The main objective of setting up of the Centre for Teaching and
Learning (CTL) is to:
1. Educate faculty on how to go about
integrating ICT in Higher Education effectively by conducting
workshops, seminars and provide them with hands-on
experience/training.
2. Develop E-content for the various
courses offered by the college and other educational institutions.
3. Innovate, Implement and Share different ICT tools in teaching like
Simulation, Gamification, LMS, Mobile Applications, etc.
4.
Conduct Research related to use of ICT, Learning Analytics, Mobiles,
LMS, etc.
5. Provide Consultancy services to schools and
other Higher Educational Institutions by providing a roadmap for ICT
implementation.
6. Provide Assessment/evaluation strategies
to track student progression to graduation.
