The Times of India (Mumbai edition)
If you dream of studying at Delhi University’s Shri Ram College of Commerce, make sure you have a laptop ready. From the coming academic year, the college is putting an end to the pen-and-paper style of teaching and all students will need to carry laptops to the classroom.
SRCC will thus become one of the first colleges in the country to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) with classroom teaching. College authorities believe the shift will help improve the volume of teaching and efficiency of students.
‘‘Teachers will take classes using LCD screens and all students will use laptops. The concept of teachers using their age-old notes for lectures and the students getting them photocopied is set to change. Freshers will be formally informed when they come for orientation on July 15,’’ said principal P C Jain.
He added that the SRCC campus would soon become WiFi-enabled. ‘‘The faculty can access information from the internet in the classroom and share it with students at the click of a mouse. Teaching will become faster as the teachers will no longer be required to write on the blackboard.’’
