How to Improve Quality in Education Using EAP Approach of - COBI

Abstract

Most engineering students today lack content in their subjects (technical & non-technical) and are unable to perform in the job place because of their haziness.  Reports say that a majority of the engineering graduates in our nation find themselves  extremely difficult to seek employment opportunities.  These Engineering graduates lack content along with required skills for right employment.  To improve the content and confidence, there exists a need for integrating quality into the technical education system especially in the English language laboratory because every aspect of employment process includes good communication skills.   Laboratory is the only platform where a student can learn and improve many things within the academic schedule.

The statistics of the AICTE reveals the facts that, with over 3,000 colleges in the nation churning out 14 lakh graduates annually, there tends to occur a dip in quality that can be overcome only with the parallel increase of facilities amongst other factors.  To bring about well-rounded graduates with the right technical and language competence, colleges must adopt student-centered method of learning which should aim at developing learner autonomy and independence.
