At Jbiet, faculty were motivated to innovate better delivery of instruction using modern and appropriate methods, this is done to ensure higher quantum of knowledge transfer which in return will give better results. It helps to formulate the lesson in The tools devised and used by faculty members are effective resulting in better communication between faculty and students and also yielding better understanding by the students. Some of the tools are already existing as part of ICT, they are im
Main targets of this innovation process are:
- Making the process of teaching more effective.
- Ensuring better retention of knowledge by students.
- Creating scope for modern teaching methodologies viz.. Flipped classrooms.
- Making effective course work.
- Ensuring 24/7 learning.
Some of our inclusive ways are listed below:
- Mind Map
- Flipped Class Room
- 100 Pins (Content Delivery by Mailing List)
- Activity-based Learning
- Learning by Doing
- National Digital Library
- Content Delivery by Official College Website
- Use of Smart Boards
- 9.Moodle
- Semester Readiness Program(SRP)
- Google Classroom
Proofs of the above stated are comprehensively documented.
Below are the Short Descriptions on above Innovative means in Teaching and Learning:
1. Mind Map:
A mind map is a diagram used to visually organize information. A mind map is hierarchical and shows relationships among pieces of the whole. It is often created around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank page, to which as words are added. Major ideas are connected directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch out from those.
Objectives:
1. To generate, visualize, structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid to studying and organizing information, solving problems, making decisions, and writing.
2. To help students with critical and creative thinking and improve their problem-solving ability at the same time.
Outcomes:
- The study ability of both students and faculty will get accelerated by improving and enhancing their retention with the combination of photography and information.
- Problem Solving Ability of students will get improved.

2.Flipped Class Room:
The flipped classroom is a teaching approach where our students get their first exposure to course content before coming to class through readings and video lectures. They then spend in-class time engaging in activities that we’ve designed to
Objectives:
- To promote flexible learning among students.
- To facilitate increased engagement between students and faculty.
- To provide prompt and timely feedback to students based on their out of class assessment performance.
Outcomes:
1.Resonate well with those who are high performers and those who tend to underperform. 2.Enhance Faculty interaction with students by scheduled class meetings for dialogue.
3.100 Pins:
100 Pins is a great local community& mailing facility to share course materials to students through a valid account. JBIET is utilizing this site for better interaction with students in online mode.
4.Activity based learning:
Activity method is a technique adopted by a teacher to emphasize his or her method of teaching through activity in which the students participate rigorously and bring about efficient learning experiences. Learning by doing is the main focus in t it is well proved that more the senses are stimulated, more a person learns and longer he/she retains.
Objectives:
- To enhance creative aspect of experience.
- To build the student’s self-confidence and to develop understanding through work in their group.
Outcomes:
1.Happy relationship between students and students, teachers and students will be developed.
5.Learning by doing:
Our IT department has two dedicated labs for implementing “Learning by doing” methodology. Those labs are located at room no 123 & 124 in the main block of JBIET. In these labs, students are provided with hands on training on vari held together to implement “Learning by doing”.
Each lab has 30 systems with the following configuration:
Acer Intel Core i3-6100 Processor H1 10 chip set
4GB Ram
500 GB Hard Disk
18.5” WTFT LED Display D-Link 16 port switches – 2
Microsoft Campus Agreement
6.National Digital Library:
JBIET is registered as a NDLI Club under the National Digital Library of India. So, students can access the contents available on National Digital Library website anytime.
7.Content Delivery by Official College Website:
Study materials related to any ITdepartment Course has made available online in our official web site. Refer www.jbiet.edu.in (http://www.jbiet.edu.in/)
8.Use of Smart Boards:
We, faculties from IT department use Smart Board to enhance teaching and learning. We use smart boards to display videos, images and text in ways we cannot do with ordinary whiteboards.
Objectives:
- To engage the class more effectively.
- To make use of technology in imparting effective teaching.
Outcomes:
- Lesson notes will be delivered easily.
- Smart board makes ease of interaction with other technology. Student can create power point presentation and share it with the class on the Smart Board.
9.Moodle:
Moodle is a learning platform designed to provide educators, administrators and learners with a single robust, secure and integrated system to create personalised learning environments.
The features of moodle are:
All-in-one learning platform:
As Moodle provides the most flexible tool-set to support both blended learning and 100% online courses, it can easily integrate everything needed for a course using its complete range of built-in features, including external collaborative tools s materials are delivered to students, Quizes are conducted, assignments are given and grading is done accordingly. It is n effective tool for effective teaching learning process and is being extensively used in our department.
Highly flexible and fully customizable
Because it is open-source, Moodle can be customised in any way and tailored to individual needs. Its modular set up and interoperable design allows developers to create plugins and integrate external applications to achieve specific functiona for enhanced teaching learning.
Robust, secure and private
As data security and user privacy, security controls are constantly being updated and implemented in Moodle development processes against unauthorized access, data loss and misuse, moodle provides an easy platform for 177 continuous as secure cloud or server for complete control.

users.
Extensive resources available
Access extensive Moodle documentation and user forums in multiple languages, free content and courses shared by Moodle users across the world, as well as hundreds of plugins contributed by a large global community.
10.Semester Readiness Program(SRP):
To improve the readiness among the faculty handling various theory and lab courses the SRP is conducted by conducting a seminar sort of concepts explained to other faculty members of our department.
11. Google Classroom
Google Classroom is a free web service developed by Google for schools that aims to simplify creating, distributing, and grading assignments. The primary purpose of Google Classroom is to streamline the process of sharing files between teachers and students.

- Using Google Classroom can save teachers and students’ time and make learning process more effective.
12. Reproducibility of Ph.D. Work
Ph.D. holders of the IT department motivate students and staff for brainstorming future ideas on the existing Ph.D. works.
Reproducibility from the Ph.D. Thesis:
1) Security Services in Cloud and
2) Priority-based Distributed Job Processing System
3) Data Analytics and Health Care
4) Data Management and AI
13. Strategic lesson plan:
- Course content’s delivery method is properly planned prior to the commencement of course.
- This information on instruction delivery is maintained in the course file.
- Instruction delivery is done through Blackboard, ppt’s, videos, website references, interactive activities, and also through social media.
