The use of Internet is an inevitable part and there is increasingly centered effect on the part of Government, Education Ministry to fulfill the special needs of the students. The extent and pattern of usage of the Internet amongst students in Annamalai University is the primary focus of this study. This study investigates the relationship between motivational variables (intrinsic and extrinsic), demographic variable and the Internet usage activities (messaging, downloading, browsing and purchasing). The finding also shows that perceived usefulness is an important driver of Internet usage.Keywords

Enhancing the employability skills of the graduates is the need of the hour for every engineering education institute. To improve the employability skills, every institute follows their own method. Providing soft skills&technical skills training, arranging lectures by industry&academic experts, training students for global certifications etc. are few of the methods. In this paper, we discuss our institute's association with Infosys through their Campus Connect Programme, which has immensely benefited out students to become industry ready. Also, we discuss the ways how Infosys addresses the requirements of faculty and students. We strongly believe that effective implementation of Infosys Campus Connect programme will bridge the gap between our academic outputs and the industry requirements.Keywords

In the new Outcome Based Education model as prescribed by National Board of Accreditation (NBA), one of the most important criteria is the Attainment of Course Outcomes (COs). The Course Outcomes can be attained through several Direct and Indirect Assessments. This all can be achieved with clearly defining the Course Outcomes of the Course. In this paper, we have taken a Sample Course and we have clearly explained the methodology used in the assessment of attainment.Keywords

In the new Outcome Based Education model as prescribed by National Board of Accreditation (NBA), one of the most important criteria is the Attainment of Programme Outcomes (POs). The Programme Outcomes are specific rather than narrower statements that describe what students are expected to know and be able to do upon the graduation. These relate to the skills, knowledge, and behavior that students acquire in their matriculation through the programme. The Programme Outcomes can be attained through the attainment of Course Outcomes of the courses pertaining to that programme. In this paper a sample course viz. Building Enterprise Applications has been selected to demonstrate the process involved in the attainment of Course Outcomes. The contribution of Course Outcomes to Programme Outcomes is also demonstrated.Keywords

The present study explored electronic information seeking behavior of postgraduate students in Education in relation to their scholarly activities. The present study was conducted to examine whether the postgraduates students utilize electronic resources and services provided by the library and the extent to which the library was used. A questionnaire was administered to all the postgraduate students in the Department of Education, Faculty of Arts, and University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka in September 2017 and the data were statistically analyzed using SPSS software. The results revealed that most of the respondents used electronic resources available in the library, and websites and online catalogs are the most preferred electronic resources. This study showed that most of the respondents used e-resources for their research works and writing assignments and the average time spent for using e-resources was one to two hours per week. It is evident that most of the respondents preferred to access e-resources from the University library and the cybercafés and most of them were aware of e-resources available in the library. The study further identified some constraints users face when using electronic resources.Keywords

Role of industry is very much essential to prepare the students for employment. Industries can collaborate in many ways with institutions to enhance the skills of the students. They can participate in curriculum design, development and delivery. They can offer industry specific core/elective courses. They can conduct student workshops, contests and conferences. They can also offer industry specific international certifications. In this paper, as a case study we have considered our own institute and analysed in detail about how our association with industries have enhanced skills and employability of our students. The objective of this study is to showcase that by involving industries in curriculum design, we can see developments in all the frontiers of academics. We have shown the developments in the areas of research publications, industry relevant courses/electives, industry relevant workshops/faculty development programs, improvements in research and consultancy and student placements.Keywords
