Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah so uh Thank you so far i'm agreeing to this interview so before we begin, we can have like a short introduction on about you.
Mayuri Kulkarni: which would entail your name your education qualification, which is your area of specialization of which university, you are currently working with and what courses, do you teach in the program that you're working with in your university.
Florence Purty: Okay, so I am Florence booty.
Florence Purty: And my qualification is PhD.
Florence Purty: And here we have beer department I teach in the vr department difference.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay.
Yes.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So what all other subjects that are you beach or in beard.
Florence Purty: Yes, like language of course curriculum.
Florence Purty: Okay, better.
Florence Purty: and
Florence Purty: Also philosophy of education.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Then How long have you been with this institute so.
Florence Purty: This is no my second year.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Florence Purty: yeah this one.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, and so what is the name of the Institute again.
Florence Purty: Yes, serious college Department of Education.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And there is this exactly located so.
Florence Purty: ranchi ranchi you can.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay so and also walked all other programs that or though institute offers along with being.
Florence Purty: in education, here we have.
Florence Purty: Almost.
Florence Purty: 29 subjects here.
Florence Purty: Did you is a we get out of college.
Florence Purty: Art science former streams.
Florence Purty: Almost all the traditional subjects are taught here, along with this, some additional courses are also do.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so in teacher education you just have beard right.
Florence Purty: Now we have just.
Mayuri Kulkarni: been and since Wang though you have beard.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Good since 2005 2005 Okay, and so what is our nct approved intake.
Florence Purty: Is hundred.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Oh boy unit.
Florence Purty: Is it is 100 we have been one.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So the first year beard students intake is hundred.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Yes, and check, you know would be hundred so it time you'll have.
Florence Purty: 200 students yes.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so, and so, how many students were admitted in.
Florence Purty: 2019 2019 1999 the students were.
Florence Purty: And 2020 also 99.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so 19 and 20 you had.
Florence Purty: Almost similar in yourself your students, they left little.
Florence Purty: permission.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Oh, so we also wanted to understand a little bit about kind of what kind of students actually secure admission so like what what would be the proportion of students from say art school most of physics math stream.
Florence Purty: Just roughly I would be able to say, because I do not have data to present at my yeah.
Florence Purty: So.
Florence Purty: We have in last two batches.
Florence Purty: Scientists students are coming.
Florence Purty: And no sense, almost two in 1920 and 2021 edge.
Florence Purty: Almost scientists students are 60%.
Florence Purty: of science and math and science and.
Florence Purty: math science and biological science and.
Florence Purty: Also.
Florence Purty: Almost a student for almost 30% how much.
Florence Purty: Okay, and our students templates like that.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And so, other than that do you have a dog or streams students what taking admissions.
Florence Purty: Other students.
Florence Purty: Yes, other students, like in these two years we have students from it bb.
Florence Purty: And MCA even.
Florence Purty: Some have come from visiting some operational processes students those you studying Buddhism courses, they are also joining.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so, how.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Would you describe the quality of the Academy qualification.
Mayuri Kulkarni: I mean what proportion, would you say you know, has first class marks.
Florence Purty: percentage wise like.
Florence Purty: 40% is the passing.
Mayuri Kulkarni: How much.
Florence Purty: What do you do.
Florence Purty: Okay, then 60 to.
Florence Purty: 60% first division.
Florence Purty: and
Florence Purty: And above seven they have distinction, we have here we have distinction and First Division mostly students pass in distinction and first.
Florence Purty: serve up 70%.
Florence Purty: and some are less than 70% but they're mostly all passing.
Florence Purty: First Division distinction.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so what is your own assessment of data characteristics strengths and weaknesses by large.
Florence Purty: Did academy assessment is wrong program is very enriching.
Florence Purty: Students, they are engaged all.
Florence Purty: In different activity.
Mayuri Kulkarni: I can't do you actually your voices.
Okay.
Florence Purty: So hold throughout the day we engaged in what we do to now log down, we have not been able to do that.
But.
Florence Purty: Mostly our students because of very busy Program.
Florence Purty: And the demand of the course they prepare will also, and they are engaged fully in different activities what we conduct here, and that is why the outcome, which comes that is very good, no, they come after selection selection district level selection.
Florence Purty: Okay Lucy.
Florence Purty: They are intelligent students.
Okay.
Florence Purty: yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So, so how would you compare your students academy profile with that of other colleges.
Florence Purty: That is only the marks work.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Sorry, so your voices video.
Florence Purty: marks marks is the basis.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Oh, some I mean, how would you like Marks and even other thing like overall development, how would you compare your students with that of other.
Florence Purty: colleges students is to this comparison is not possible.
Florence Purty: Right, it will not come together, but grow by our performance, we can see that they are doing better than other colleges.
Florence Purty: So, otherwise here, we do not have any.
Florence Purty: Common exam or common performance test or something or not nothing like that, so it is different, we have not able to compare like that.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And so, what do you think would be the ocean or for men and women as students.
Florence Purty: Because 70% and 30% girl 70% was 30%.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And so, so how are most students like you were saying how are they admitted in into the.
Florence Purty: district level selection test is conducted by state itself and qualify go those.
Florence Purty: who are able to qualify to that test, there are a lot of the College is also and they are admittedly.
Mayuri Kulkarni: OK OK and reach other colleges that are preferred by high rank students so.
Florence Purty: Government colleges and also our college also students.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Yours is a private aided college.
Florence Purty: yeah private college and finance.
Florence Purty: and
Florence Purty: Even then, students, they like to come here, because of the quality, not because of low fees and so on in government colleges.
Mayuri Kulkarni: know your voices pretty soon i'm so sorry but i'm not able to show you.
Florence Purty: All.
Florence Purty: The in government colleges he's is very low.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right right.
Florence Purty: Before to join there, but in our college also it's not always because of the quality.
Florence Purty: And the most to.
Florence Purty: Our seats of every year.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so, what are the likes of students who are admitted into your college.
Florence Purty: Right.
Florence Purty: which type of rank.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So, like once or like you said you know the selection is done through a common entrance test.
Mayuri Kulkarni: But once they come into your college what using is the Academy.
Mayuri Kulkarni: rank of them.
Florence Purty: Now they are selected by the state level test only.
Florence Purty: Right come along with their own machine and development letter of the College.
Florence Purty: So we do not give them separate ranking.
Mayuri Kulkarni: No, no yeah no I get it, but once you're admitted, you will know, the percentages right.
and
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah That way, you can understand the ranks of them, I mean would they be like him first time or second rank or you know 75% and above 60% and above.
Florence Purty: You almost all of our 60%.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Florence Purty: It is the American way selection and therefore the best ones, only the company.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And the dry dry and so, so how many students actually take a mathematics and science teaching.
Florence Purty: i'm.
Florence Purty: Almost.
Florence Purty: Let me see like I said almost 60 or 60% of students, in a sense, in mathematics is students will be around 15 when one wedge.
Florence Purty: like that.
Florence Purty: Okay yeah similarly.
Florence Purty: Political science and biological science in these two category number of students is bigger.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, and science.
Florence Purty: Yes, is political science and this logical side.
Mayuri Kulkarni: OK OK, so that 60%.
yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and what would be their profile so while they take up maths and science.
Florence Purty: will finally means What do you mean.
Mayuri Kulkarni: What would have been their trial or education in terms of subjects.
I mean.
Florence Purty: graduation is the.
Florence Purty: necessary.
Florence Purty: Minimum qualification graduation, but then they come with to master so.
Florence Purty: Many students, they come with masters.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, and then masters or graduation will be in one of these subjects or not necessarily.
Florence Purty: Not necessarily.
Florence Purty: Not.
Mayuri Kulkarni: necessarily okay Okay, and so, what do you think you know all your other be a program was for money or then it changed to two years.
Florence Purty: Yes, what.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Do you think the profile of students has changed since the beard program became a two year Program.
Florence Purty: Yes, because of the subjects what is taught here different projects.
Florence Purty: And naturally the knowledge is vital now okay also around in that different activities internships all those things.
Florence Purty: Really enhance the quality, so now program is very extensive and.
Florence Purty: It is, can we engage them.
Florence Purty: And that is why.
Florence Purty: students.
Florence Purty: The learn more than before.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay right so also what would be the social economic profile of students.
Florence Purty: Here relation of the central government which followed.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, yes.
Florence Purty: We see.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Some water, you see.
Florence Purty: Like your central government's reservation policy.
Florence Purty: Yes, we follow that and the state government Agincourt also so that, when we follow.
Florence Purty: Okay seats are reserved for general.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right right i'm in terms of see background.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Like social economic profile, how would that be.
Florence Purty: Economic they come from yeah different.
Florence Purty: What to say with the with the cost, we can make out when the outcome.
Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So, like are they like from rural areas or urban areas or you know or bpm families or something like that.
Florence Purty: yeah someday come from the bill family also but the pay fully.
So yeah.
Florence Purty: session no Oh, we are able to fire will clearly identify which be purely because he is he's taken.
Mayuri Kulkarni: OK.
Mayuri Kulkarni: OK OK.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And so, if they had not joined bs or.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Teaching what could have been there are alternatives, what do you think.
Florence Purty: That, I cannot see it was only those who live with it.
Mayuri Kulkarni: or officer Okay, and so so students who get enrolled, what do you think would be the key motivation to join the Program.
Florence Purty: move the one.
Florence Purty: Is your.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay.
Florence Purty: yeah for engineering also you have joined.
Florence Purty: Because nowadays because of this uncertainty in business area.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right yeah.
Florence Purty: They they are at home and they like to be close to their homes and so on, I think that is why they want secure job, especially the girls students.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so someone do want D yo thing that students, like the most about the Program.
Florence Purty: The nobody will overall program the like.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Anything in specific sound.
Florence Purty: or.
Florence Purty: any specific thing is not gonna be like it.
Florence Purty: Especially whatever program what is accepted only we just teach you.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so and I think specific that they would like about the Program.
yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, and do you think that they face any issues with respect to the Program.
Florence Purty: Now program as such, it is the non face.
Florence Purty: Any issues in a sense, they don't find it difficult.
Florence Purty: Because all are very well educated and wrinkly and the students, they come here.
Florence Purty: So.
Florence Purty: Of course, language, sometimes they find it difficult language so okay and instruction is given in English.
Florence Purty: Today, as usual, is defined it difficult to understand.
Florence Purty: Otherwise, also are able to cope, and at the end their performance is also equal.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay so so in general, overall, what do you think students feel about that we ought to be a program.
Florence Purty: That they're happy about it and the demand is there.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Of.
Florence Purty: This college and they like to come and join here.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so, what are your students opinions regarding though or PT exam the teacher eligibility test.
Florence Purty: That I cannot say because passion.
Mayuri Kulkarni: But, in general, have you heard students discuss with you about the exam.
No.
Mayuri Kulkarni: No okay Okay, and in so you know once they get admitted in your college and after two years, when they leave in what way, do you see any changes in them, what do you think is your opinion, what do they learn from the Program.
Florence Purty: you'll learn and perform very well, wherever they are.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: and any changes in particular, from the time they have admitted and until the time they leave.
Florence Purty: Yes, damn much more mature.
Florence Purty: and intellectually of us there they're very sound and then methodology wide also the better.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so do you receive feedback from schools regarding student preparation.
Florence Purty: yeah Sami schools there.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, and what kind of feedback, do you get from them.
Florence Purty: With like in the sense.
Florence Purty: Sometimes they also observed when students go to the beach.
Florence Purty: And, but then.
Florence Purty: It is now a student a specific depending on.
Florence Purty: Maybe their language presentation and so on.
Florence Purty: Not that much but very rarely we get this kind of feedback.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And so after they take up teaching or do your students like keep in touch with you.
Florence Purty: Know someday come.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay and do they give you like any feedback in terms of Program.
Florence Purty: No.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay so so in previously two to three batches of how many do you think would have applied for the TV or the seated exam.
Florence Purty: know the state level exam they apply, but then seated very few there are five MINS maybe later so 50%.
Florence Purty: That is, I don't know exactly as I have knowing.
Florence Purty: Your data, but I hope.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So, like you have seen hundred students right but that.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah so all of them apply or no.
Florence Purty: No, they don't comply many.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So what do you think would be the proportion.
Florence Purty: will be up to 50% that is also central government, but if you're still able to damage control, then the whole day of life.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay okay makes sense Okay, and how many of them would have passed or i'm out of the 50%.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Oh OK OK also so does your institute provide support for TD preparation.
Florence Purty: know that.
Florence Purty: We don't provide what some sort of guidance we provide.
Florence Purty: Not we don't we don't prepare them like watching, but then it is only just the guidance.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So I mean.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Do they ask for guidance, or you don't.
Florence Purty: play to do sometimes they ask.
Florence Purty: And if you ask.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And then do you like have extra classes, or how do you provide.
Personal.
Mayuri Kulkarni: One on one.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah okay okay right so also you know, there would be other colleges of excellence, would appear 14 right.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And there could be colleges, where the past percentages high and there could be some qualities, whether tip pass percentages Lou do you mean what, what do you think would be the reasons for that.
Florence Purty: Such kind of data is why not.
Florence Purty: Oh.
Mayuri Kulkarni: OK OK yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So what i'm you know there to students get employed after they complete their beard.
Florence Purty: yo do all are employed almost all.
Florence Purty: Okay, and.
Florence Purty: He has many schools, they asked for the students also before before completion also so like that we also arrange for them and.
Mayuri Kulkarni: I didn't I didn't get to you what did you say.
Florence Purty: So some of the schools, they asked for teachers in different subjects, so we provide them also we arranged for the placement some for some students.
Florence Purty: Okay, what many the goal by their own.
Mayuri Kulkarni: They do it on their own.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah okay okay so i'm in the last two matches what proportion of late students look for a job or they look for higher education.
Florence Purty: Very few go for higher education.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah Okay, and what kind of schools, do they find their jobs in.
Florence Purty: Both English medium and medium.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And or private or government.
Florence Purty: Government depends on the exam.
Florence Purty: And if they have not bought government job, then they are engaged in private.
Florence Purty: Institutions.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: I what you do have a placement cell right.
Florence Purty: We do not have any organized placement cell but.
Florence Purty: When.
Florence Purty: They asked for teachers.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so we have also called that new teachers are generally given lower grade classes to teach um you know, after being when they go into or they offer them low grade classes to teach and after that.
Mayuri Kulkarni: They are moved up to higher grade Is this true.
Florence Purty: No, not this and our students are teaching are blessed to live alone so.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Sorry, so.
Florence Purty: Our students are teaching a cluster level awesome.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Oh OK.
Mayuri Kulkarni: OK, so they do not get.
Mayuri Kulkarni: or pleased in a primary.
Florence Purty: Know primary section, the middle schools and high school.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so what proportion of your students so seek government jobs.
Florence Purty: Almost all.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And how many of them get it actually.
Florence Purty: um.
Florence Purty: Exactly, I will not be able to tell but.
Florence Purty: Just general.
Florence Purty: Mostly our students are placed mostly.
Mayuri Kulkarni: right government jobs isn't.
yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Oh okay okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So so see you have a batch of hundreds of those hundred how many students do you think that government teaching jobs.
Florence Purty: Almost 30% but depends on the exam.
Florence Purty: Is not regular not every year examination.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right right.
Florence Purty: wait for the exam.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay until you were saying you know school was asked for teachers Oh, as for recruitment, do you have like a fee.
Florence Purty: What does that actually.
Florence Purty: i'm not getting.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah so so we were talking about you know how many students actually get government jobs ready, you said about 80%.
Florence Purty: yeah yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay um so so.
Mayuri Kulkarni: They don't actually vote for teaching in private schools is it.
Florence Purty: Did teach until they get government job but preferences government jobs.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right so so what could be the starting salary in government and private schools.
Florence Purty: and government, it is around 40,000.
Florence Purty: Okay, and private, they give around a Defense some they give very little also stallion 7000 10,000 20,000 30,000 like that energy based on the capacity of the institutions.
Right.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so those students get jobs in NGOs also that work in education sector.
Florence Purty: You have no such cases.
Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, and so, what are the adult Curry yours related to education that students can force you, if not teaching.
Florence Purty: Education if there's a study done mostly the going fishing line but apart from that, the.
Florence Purty: Go for higher studies, like a minute then become educators and Sunday apply for government jobs also.
Florence Purty: Government job.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, all right well what are some of the challenges that you and your colleagues face with reference to teaching students.
Florence Purty: What do you meet.
Florence Purty: them to do the food.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So what are the challenges that you and your colleagues face with reference to teaching students.
Florence Purty: use.
Florence Purty: challenges are there many types of challenges, or to shape them as teacher, it is very difficult in the beginning.
Florence Purty: Right, you see them, especially the methods in different subjects.
Florence Purty: and
Florence Purty: The nuances of teaching.
Like.
Florence Purty: My co teaching onwards we start.
Florence Purty: is key different skills which are involved, we develop that and in the beginning, some students, they struggle with regard to language with regard to.
Florence Purty: The presentation user for the visual just shelves and classroom management, all these things you know, basically, the struggle in the beginning, but then, as they go for practice and so on, they become expert after some time.
Mayuri Kulkarni: right today and so those challenges that you and your colleagues would face, you know, with reference to your tenure or salary or opportunities for professional development.
Florence Purty: Oh, my colleagues.
Mayuri Kulkarni: You when your colleagues book.
Florence Purty: Oh yes, that is always an issue and.
Florence Purty: The demand for higher salary always.
Florence Purty: You know.
Florence Purty: They are satisfied to work.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay, so uh how many faculties are there in total, including you.
Florence Purty: Well, here we are.
Florence Purty: 16.
Mayuri Kulkarni: One six is it.
Florence Purty: yeah one.
Mayuri Kulkarni: For just beard.
Yes.
Mayuri Kulkarni: wow.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay i'm this is excluding your headmaster or including.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Russia, yes, yes.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So I was asking love you know any challenges, you and your colleagues face with reference to salary or opportunities to grow professionally.
Florence Purty: No professional development.
Florence Purty: or system, so are conducted here to them.
Florence Purty: Okay, in the college two different faculty members and also.
Florence Purty: The university level, they have sent for a refresher courses also.
Florence Purty: and
Florence Purty: They are updated with new developments on small.
Florence Purty: Salaries origin issue and.
Florence Purty: The day no demand for more because, but then it is OK, not that everybody is satisfied, but then or more or less okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Hello so.
Florence Purty: Yes, yeah yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So you see.
Florence Purty: Yes, so salary shoe always management fee applies to an hour just always say every year some incremental yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So, so when you say yours is a private aided college, are you affiliated to any university.
Florence Purty: No, of course, not university.
Mayuri Kulkarni: and university only right so so even they aren't university would also have their own.
Mayuri Kulkarni: timelines right do you face any issues with respect to that.
Florence Purty: timeline is there, but then they are very late late in the sense this hour says autonomous college and university due to.
Florence Purty: chance.
Florence Purty: yeah we can we can continue.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah so so you were talking about your college being autonomous and grant university are affiliated with.
yeah.
Mayuri Kulkarni: yeah so any Oh, you know timeline restrictions or orders that you need to follow.
Florence Purty: up with regard to calendar, we have our own calendar okay and syllabus also we have our own syllabus.
Florence Purty: Which is approved in the academic council of the College and also approved by the at university, but then we have our own, and also the regard to timeline and the Semester, we have our different you know time time in the sense one semester our one Semester and their semester.
Florence Purty: The agenda.
Florence Purty: For they are a little behind us.
Mayuri Kulkarni: They meaning.
Florence Purty: University that university.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay Okay, and so, with reference to ncp regulations do you face any challenges there.
Florence Purty: yeah challenges are there in city regulation, especially with regard to teachers with regard to teachers, we have to the group now it is mandatory to have 14 teachers.
Florence Purty: 60 and we do too, now we do to introduction of new new methods, now we have to keep more number of teachers, so of course that burden is there to comply with the regulations of the entity.
Florence Purty: Right and luckily, we have to update and give report then attendance record also we have to publish in our website so we go along with three and city and.
Florence Purty: Was you know they want to be in touch with us and also we had we do require our update and to time so that is in a way we are updating, but that itself is a challenge, but to comply with their regulation that is a challenge not easy to fulfill.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right right.
Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So, and so you know now with the new education policy, though the ED has we know it will eventually be into a full year program so.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Is your view on the.
Mayuri Kulkarni: proposed for your Program.
Florence Purty: Since it is coming, for the first time in college, I will not be able to say very conclusively what it to be like, but I think it will be good, in the sense.
Florence Purty: Our students, those who have aptitude for that or interest for that particular progression join at the lower level, in a sense, and after us to, so I think better teachers will be.
Florence Purty: On and.
Florence Purty: On a year's time, of course, they will save one year also because, after graduation, it will be two years.
Florence Purty: On the same time, also the same as you realize they are trained in their own subject so they become better exposed to their subject under methods also so later on what happens, they have you studied another subject and take other method, so it is very difficult to train them.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Day.
Florence Purty: They come with engineering subject, and here we have to train them in mathematics.
Florence Purty: engineering is not exactly mathematics, but then student from miles of B or C Max easy studying also weird program together, then.
Florence Purty: In that particular discipline, we are easily helping him to become better teacher.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Today, today you.
Mayuri Kulkarni: may be challenged.
Mayuri Kulkarni: or triples.
Florence Purty: Yes, challenges.
Florence Purty: Challenges a sense.
Florence Purty: We have to set up.
Florence Purty: The syllabus curriculum.
Florence Purty: differently.
Florence Purty: and
Florence Purty: Our.
Florence Purty: Pro discarded glum construction, that is the challenge, first of all, and other things, I think it will take the shape, as it comes, because the syllabus will be distributed in four years, but then, how to actualize that.
Florence Purty: That will be a challenge means how we distribute our program over four years so that will be a little bit you know not very clear.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Okay.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So we'll you know we'll, be it should be continued, once this turns into 40 or or what should have been eventually.
Florence Purty: See, I personally, my view is that it should continue it should company.
Florence Purty: For your course that also should continue, there is no problem.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Right so so, then what would be your take on the composite program Board should continue that we are, and the boolean.
Florence Purty: Yes, there is no problem.
Florence Purty: Actually teachers.
Florence Purty: Those who have opted to they can be good teacher.
Florence Purty: after graduation also or it is not only the training aspect, but then the willingness to be a teacher a good teacher that also makes the difference is.
Florence Purty: Some some students, they like to be a teacher.
Florence Purty: But in the beginning, of course, some they try for different professional so.
Florence Purty: Right towards the realize that okay my proposition is in this ad so some can come later also so that options would be kept open.
Mayuri Kulkarni: today.
Yes.
Mayuri Kulkarni: And Sosa of you know, last year's worth of over so one relating to your institution, I mean, how did your institution function during the score with period what works and what did not work for your Institute.
Florence Purty: yeah in the beginning, we were confused for two three months, we did not have any class beginning in the first phase of the slow down.
Florence Purty: slow down, and we did not know what to do so just it was.
Florence Purty: Total lockdown and no teaching learning was going on in that period, but later on know as the technology technology was introduced and our teachers, they also.
Florence Purty: became familiar with online model of teaching, then we started slowly it just were trained in the beginning in the online mode Google and.
Florence Purty: Google beat and this do map and we started our classes and the students were also trained in the beginning, so like this, you know we started class in the beginning, we had a travel both teacher side and the student side also.
Mayuri Kulkarni: Of course you.
Florence Purty: know also network issue and many did not have a smartphone that also was the problem and.
Florence Purty: home setup is also not very conducive for.
Florence Purty: Today, so all these things were in the beginning, challenges, but again, it has settled, and now we are regularly taking in online only and the students are very well operating and they are learning awesome and it has been quite effective.
Mayuri Kulkarni: So also weird has this component of internships right where students were saying teach how has that affected in covert.
Florence Purty: In covina actually schools have closed.
Mayuri Kulkarni: It right.
Florence Purty: at high school and therefore we were not able to send them last year and this year also I don't think we will be able to send them because schools are closed, and only internship that doesn't help much because teachers are new and the students are unknown and therefore no.
Florence Purty: That is not effective.

Florence Purty: Of, especially regarding internship we are missing a lot yeah just prints out also missing that connection with their students classroom exposure and the real classroom setting and in that setting, they are not able to.
Florence Purty: Teach so that is a problem for the students all teary part, of course, the original issue.
