With the objective to provide a holistic education to the students of Rangia College, the College hasintroduced the Extension Education Cell. The Mentoring and Counseling programme runs under this cell. The programme aims to forge a one to one relationship between the teacher and students to support and guide them to achieve their personal goals. The Programme also aims to train the students to play leadership roles in society and participate constructively in social issues. The Practice: The Programme was initiated on 11th August 2016. Sessions were commenced on 18th August,2016. In the initial year, all the first semester students, (Arts, Science & Commerce), major and general, were mingled and divided into groups of thirty students each. Thus, each group consisted of Science, Arts and Commerce Students. Forty-five groups were thus created and each group was placed under a Mentor. A total of forty-five Mentors were appointed from among the teachers. The objective was that students of the various streams mingle and share a healthy exchange of ideas. Similarly, teachers of various disciplines were appointed as Mentors to enrich the students experience with a cross disciplinary approach. With due course of time, the programme was redesigned to overcome the challenges faced and it still goes on.
The group of teacher mentors has continued sessions with the mentees. It is seen that a trust has been established as the mentees open up to their mentors. A number of issues are touched upon by the mentors as they motivate the mentees. The students have been benefitted from the programme. Apart from counseling, the Mentors have also exposed them to Soft skills & Communicative skills. Audio-visual shows and inspiring lectures are also screened to motivate the mentees.
While conducting the Programme, a number of challenges are faced, such as accommodating classrooms, class routines and completing syllabi etc. The mentors find it difficult to accommodate the mentoring sessions into the class and examination schedule. Therefore, in order to make the programme more manageable, it has been redesigned from time to time. Notes: The practice can bring a tremendous change in making our future citizens mentally sound with human values and a spirit of service towards the society to some extent if it extends to other institutions.
