Services
and Facilities
1
Library The
SCE library service is committed to supporting the teaching, learning
and research programmes of the college by providing high quality, cost
effective information and learning resources and services through a range
of media.
To
fulfill its mission the library undertakes to:
1.
Collect and manage resources of all forms to support teaching-learning
and research programme of the College.
2 .Improve its resources and services on a continuing basis in line with
changing needs and priorities of the College.
3 .Provide equitable access for all users.
4.
Impart information skills to users to make optimum use of resources.
5. Within the limits of available space provide areas for different user
needs.
6. Ensure that users are treated with courtesy and respect by the library
staff.
2.ICT
The
student computer lab is to assist the students in developing and enriching
their learning experiences. This provides an avenue for them to realize
the importance of ICT in teaching and learning. However, they can also
use these facilities for preparing assignments and collecting academic
materials for their assignments and presentations.
It
is of great importance that the resources in the student computer labs
are functioning and are available for everyone who needs them.
The
College, however, has limited ICT resources are made available for student
use. At the moment we have two labs for students to access the intranet
and Internet. Trainees can also bring in their laptop and connect them
to Internet via wireless access point.
Wireless is accessible from anywhere within the campus.
3..Books Shop
The
SCE Bookshop will be an important aspect of student teacher support services
on our campus. The bookshop will make the access, availability and choice
of books (new and second-hand) for student teachers easy and convenient.
The college considers the access to and availability of books on campus
most crucial to the quality and standard of the student teachers’
academic learning and achievement. The bookshop on campus will be of the
size, quality and standard appropriate to the student teacher population
and variety of academic programs. The university expects that all programs
offered by the college aim to develop general intellectual, personal and
communication skills in our graduates and that they are able to demonstrate
the attributes as a result of the program. According to The Wheel of Academic
Law, the college will show evidence of our graduates having developed
general academic, intellectual, personal and communication skills in terms
of the following, among others:
1
.A grounding in a discipline or in a coherent body of knowledge
2 .The possession of general academic skills
3 .An awareness of the contexts, boundaries and limits of subject matter
studied
4 .The possession of self-motivated study skills and the readiness to
continue learning
5 .Information literacy
6 .Languages and ICT competencies
The
development of these attributes will depend critically on easy availability
of books for the modules in each program in the college bookshop. The
College Bookshop Management Committee will develop the TOR and service
standards for the bookshop.
4.Reprographic unit
The
reprographic unit of the College provides the following services:
1. Printing College documents and magazines
2. Making multiple copies of the handouts
3. Stencil cutting and duplicating
5.Photocopy and Printing:
Photocopy service is available both in the library and in the student
service photocopy room. The laser printing facility is available in the
student service photocopy room.These services are provided on payment
of nominal charges.
6.
Canteen
The College runs a canteen within the campus for the welfare of the students
and staff. It is open on all working days. A good variety of tea and snacks,
and some special dishes are available at very reasonable prices.
7.
Student Teacher’s Mess
The
student teacher mess in the SCE is managed class-wise by student teachers.
Each class takes turn to manage the mess for a Month. The elected Mess
Secretaries and Councillors take key roles in running the mess. It is
intended that student teachers learn management skills by getting involved
in the mess management.
8.Infirmary
At
the moment the Health in-charges (one lady & one gent) from among
the student body coordinates basic first aid services for the student
teachers with the support from the district hospital. This facility benefits
the entire student family in terms of its prompt services even at odd
hours without having to visit the hospital. More importantly it enables
the trainees to attend their classes regularly and concentrate on their
academic achievement.
In
the near future, these services will be provided by a professional health
worker with wider choice of services and not just basic first aid.
Please
note that a separate student handbook is available for detailed reference.
