Inclusion of ICT in our teaching – learning activities may be looked upon as the one area distinctive to its vision and priority to modernize teaching and pedagogy (skill based learning). The college has one fully developed smart classroom, three ICT enabled classrooms, as well as a language lab and three computer labs. The use of smart class technology adds to the effective transaction of curriculum. The students love to be a part of the smart class activities. One benefit of the regular and frequent use of ICT has been their exposure to the vast avenues the ICT This has boosted their confidence to use eresources available to them within the college premises, as the college has subscribed to INFLIBNET n-list programme and so 6000 e-journal and e-books are easily accessible to them. Now they know that the plenty of resources are at their finger tips so they have nothing to worry in terms of gathering information. This has also motivated them to exercise their mind critically and judiciously and form of their own Opinion and/or views on a given topic. The regular use of ICT has also honed their skill of presentation. This way another vision of the college - “Give academic freedom to all the staff and students to engage into intellectual discourse and critical enquiry without fear and favour” is also achieved to a great extent. As Jagjiwan College is undergraduate College affiliated to Veer Kunwar Singh University, Ara, UGC does not allocate funds particularly for research work. Inspite of that, faculty members try their best to generate funds by submitting research proposal for various funding agencies like UGC, DST, DBT, NMPb etc. Once the projects are sanctioned, the College becomes active and agile to facilitate the availability of Infrastructure and related amenities for smooth functions of the projects.
