In the Indian
education scenario, there are UGC norms for recruitment, pay scale and
increments, but they're only confined to government institutions, many of the
private institutions follow their own internal appraisal system for faculty and
importance is given more to the faculty members involved in student activities
& promotional aspects. Student feedback at departmental and institutional
levels is additionally a criterion for gauging teachers
Research and
Teaching fields both demand your energy. Teaching is more associated with
reading and referring more books from different authors and theories and. Most
of the time, thanks to high competitive demands from Academic arena, research
is isolated. So faculty may follow a agreement of 80:20 Teaching: Research work
ratio and Align your research the maximum amount as possible with some a part
of your teaching. Socialize at lunch time with colleagues who can potentially
help your work. Use your master’s students to develop papers supported their
curriculum subjects and reward them with marks; also you'll change your method
of delivery and appearance for changes, both qualitative and quantitative.
Examples may include Activity Based Learning/Action Learning, Gamification,
Case-Based Learning, use of the Flipped Classroom approach, to call just a
couple of. It depends on the topic matter but there's always scope and
opportunity to experiment.
So as an
educator with lot of challenges in today’s academic scenario, we've to require
research as top responsibility to satisfy future demands of teaching &
learning and check out to bring transformations, but not at the value of
teaching or other related activities during which students require supervision
and guidance.
