1. MoUs received from UGC-HRDCs (Annexure I) considering its term and validity etc.
The status of MoU between UGC and respective UGC-HRDCs were reviewed. It was noted that
out of 56 MoUs proposals received from amongst 66, two are incomplete and 12 need the original copies
for signature, the rest are complete and may be signed by UGC. Those UGC-HRDCs who have yet to
send the MoUs despite repeated reminders shall be kept on hold for the release of grants.
The MoUs shall be signed annually before the release of grants.
2. HRDCs (66) are required to fill their self assessment report (Annexure II) and submit by 10th
May
2020 to HRDC bureau
2. Allotment of course for 2020-21 to 39/66 UGC HRDCs Annexed-IV.
The allotment of courses for 2020-21 to 39/66 UGC-HRDCs is attached as Annexure IV. The
refresher courses must provide an opportunity for "ongoing, voluntary, and self-motivated" pursuit of
knowledge for either personal or professional reasons to develop a more meaningful understanding of
how concepts apply to their teaching work with next generation students. It is essential that these
courses are highly interactive and customised to the needs of participants. This dynamic approach
will keep the course content interesting and relevant for faculty members. It not only enhances social
inclusion, active citizenship, and personal development, but also self-sustainability, as well as
competitiveness. The multicultural fabric of our nation requires that the institutions involved in
implementing the curriculum also work hard towards providing an environment to create, develop
and inculcate rational, ethical and moral attitudes and values to help the creation of knowledge
society needed for the advancement of our nation. The Statement of Principles with regard to
refresher courses and Academic Leadership Program for Academicians (Middle Level/Senior Level)
are available in Annexure III.
In addition, all the HRDCs should:
(i) All HRDCs may offer at least one Short Term Course on (a) Research Methodology (b)
E-Contents/ MOOCs Development & Delivery; (c) Yoga/Wellness/Life Skills; (d)
Academic Leadership Program for Academicians (Middle Level/Senior Level).
(ii) To train the senior and middle level academic administrators to enable them to bring
about systemic changes with renewed approaches, capacity, tools and skill in HEI, UK
India Education and Research Initiative (UKIERI) - UGC Higher Education Leadership
Development Programme may be implemented through HRDCs for one-week duration. A
typical capsule for middle level (experience more than 6 years) academic leadership is
provided in Annexure III.
(iii) Innovative short-term courses on Research writing, Ethics, Artificial Intelligence, Data
analytics, machine Learning, IoTs etc. may be offered by HRDCs and more in numbers.

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES: REFRESHER CORSES AND SHORT TERM COURSES
The various schemes or activities for Quality Mandate (https://www.ugc.ac.in/e-
book/UGC%20QUALITY%20MANDATE/index.html#p=1) are Deeksharambh (Student Induction
Programme), LOCF (Learning Outcomes Based Curriculum Framework for undergraduate education),
JEEVAN KAUSHAL (Curriculum for Life Skills), social and industry connect, CARE (Consortium for
Academic and Research Ethics), STRIDE (Scheme for Trans-Disciplinary Research for India's Developing
Economy), SATAT (Framework for Eco-friendly and Sustainable Campus Development), MULYA PRAVAH
(Guidelines for inculcation of human values and professional ethics), reforms in evaluation and assessment
systems, GURUDAKSHITA (Faculty induction programme) and PARAMARSH (Scheme for mentoring
NAAC Accreditation aspirant institutions to promote quality assurance in higher education). The Leadership
Development Programs are proposed for middle level and senior level as well-the outline is briefly discussed.
The detailed modules shall be developed in due course of time.
Professional Development offers a pragmatic approach to the issues surrounding strategic planning in
higher education to enhance quality of education and effectiveness of management. These issues can be
managed by having a two prolonged interventions:
1. Faculty knowledge up gradation through Refresher Courses,
2. Effective Institutional administration through Faculty Induction Programmes and Leadership
Development Programmes.
Refresher Courses (intra-disciplinary):
One of the goals of Refresher Courses that are intra-disciplinary (in specific subject) must be to make
them appreciate that it is imperative for a teacher of Higher Education Institutions (HEI) to identify, if students
are learning what we intended them to learn and dwell upon the pedagogic tools to make the teaching
effective.In order to do that we must identify varied methods, or tasks, to assess change, growth, and the
integration of knowledge, attitudes, or skills over time. There is increasing acceptance that assessment is at
least in part to do with preparation for later life and work beyond academia. This recognition has brought with
it a gathering momentum for a shift in emphasis from the acquisition of knowledge to the acquisition of skills,
from product to process, from grading to competence. To put it another way, if the teaching departments are
serious about widening the range of skills students acquire from their degree programmes, the range and type
of modules provided must be designed with that in mind, for which HRDCs are considered to be change
agents by reorienting the objectives of Refresher Courses.
As is known, in teaching, what ultimately matters is not what is taught, but what is learnt; therefore, the
refresher courses should equip the participants to understand that
• Teachers of HEI are ready to set their course objectives in terms of learning outcomes;
• what we teach and how we teach, and how we assess, ought to be aligned with the intended learning
outcomes, such that they are fully integrated and consistent with each other;
• The quality of teaching is judged by the quality of learning that takes place.
There are some skills that are so fundamental to all scientific fields and to scientific progress
that all trainees must learn them; these include mathematics, quantitative approaches, statistics,
computation, writing, speaking, and communication. To effectively monitor and influence the development
of students‘ thinking processes, inquiry skills, attitudes toward science, and learning behaviours requires
continuous forms of assessment integrated into everyday learning activities, therefore, the rationale for doing
systematic formative assessment is extensive and can be systematically subjected to evolution by participative
role of participants in a thematic subject specific refresher course as its deliverable.
Assessment Methods
At any level, the assessment method should:
Be meaningfully related to the student-learning outcome you are trying to assess.
Require that students‘ display in observable ways the knowledge, skills, or attitudes described
in the student-learning outcome.
Learning Outcomes Teaching and Learning Activities Assessment Cognitive (Demonstrate: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, Evaluation)
Lectures Tutorials Discussions Laboratory work Clinical work
End of module exam. Multiple choice tests. Essays. Reports on lab work and research project. Affective

(Integration of beliefs, ideas and attitudes)
Group work Seminar Peer group presentation etc.
Interviews/viva. Practical assessment. Poster display. Fieldwork. Clinical examination. Presentation. Portfolio. Performance. Project work. Production of artefact etc.
Psychomotor (Acquisition of physical skills)
Strengths of a traditional approach to assessment • Strategic thinking. • Responding to pressure and time constraints. • Encouraging a broad knowledge base. Weaknesses of a traditional approach to assessment • Thinking skills – identifying and solving complex problems. • Presentation and oral skills – presenting complex problems and solutions orally in a comprehensible way, confidence building, use of PowerPoint, responding to unknown questions orally. • Interpersonal skills – communicating with colleagues, negotiating, developing leadership skills and managing interpersonal problems. • Research skills – finding unknown sources of information, research on the web and using libraries. • Entrepreneurial skills – identifying personal goals and the means to achieve them. • IT – basic skills, such as familiarity with core software and use of the internet. • Self-motivation and assessment – understanding personal motivation and objectives, and assessing progress achieved. The consistency of the traditional approach to assessment and identified learning goals
The traditional approach promotes a number of learning outcomes. The unseen examination requires students to
respond to pressure and time constraints. They develop strategic capacity in respect of the topics studied and the
questions answered, and selectivity in the material presented. In other respects, the traditional approach fares
less well.
The formative assessment is intimately linked with students‘ learning processes, helping to guide them in their
studies, motivating them, providing feedback on areas of learning requiring further work, and generally
promoting the desired learning outcome. In this role, assessment is to monitor student learning to provide
ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their
learning. More specifically, the purpose of formative assessments is:
To provide feedback to students: help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and target
areas that need work
To diagnose students‘ strengths and weaknesses: help faculty recognize where students are
struggling and address problems immediately
To help students to develop self-awareness.
To motivate students
Formative assessments are generally low stakes, which means that they have low or no point value.
Examples of formative assessments include asking students to:
draw a concept map in class to represent their understanding of a topic
submit one or two sentences identifying the main point of a lecture
turn in a research proposal for early feedback
Whilst most assessment is both summative and formative, generally, the summative function increasingly
predominates in a way that adversely affects student learning. The summative assessment is to evaluate student
learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark. Summative
assessments are often high stakes, which means that they have a high point value. Examples of summative
assessments include:
a midterm exam
a final project
a paper
a senior recital
9
Information from summative assessments can be used formatively when students or faculty use it to guide their
efforts and activities in subsequent courses. Direct summative assessment methods are most often used to
measure student-learning outcomes at the program-level (e.g., portfolios, performances, thesis, comprehensive
exams, licensure or certification exams) and course-level (e.g., research papers, course exams, case studies, oral
presentations).
Purpose of summative assessment
To pass or fail a student.
To grade or rank a student.
To allow progress to further study.
To assure suitability for work.
To predict success in future study and work.
To signal employability and selection for employment.
Example of a Program-Level Method for Assessing Student-Learning Outcomes
Students give an oral presentation in which they demonstrate their mastery of key program content
through a critical analysis of and a viable solution for a problem posed in case study materials.
Students produce a portfolio containing specific artefacts evidencing students‘ accomplishment of
each of the learning outcome.
Faculty members use a structure, process, and rubric, scoring guide, or rating scale for assessing
the portfolios.
The individual artefacts in the portfolio are assessed in relation to specific student-learning
outcomes.
The rationale for doing systematic formative assessment is extensive. Summative assessment, which occurs
primarily through the use of periodic cumulative exams that test for information and low-level problem-solving
skill, encourages rote learning on the part of students and cannot be used by teachers to shape instruction in a
continuous and dynamic fashion. To effectively monitor and influence the development of students‘ thinking
processes, inquiry skills, attitudes toward science, and learning behaviours requires continuous forms of
assessment integrated into everyday learning activities:
Exploring Naive Concepts
Students come to their physics classes with a tremendous amount of experience and understanding. A
great deal of this prior knowledge is in conflict with formal physics concepts and principles. Students
need to become aware of their prior conceptions, have the opportunity to express their understanding,
and hear what other students think. Likewise, it is essential that teachers become aware of students‘ pre-
instructional understanding so they can better tailor learning activities to address their students‘
particular needs.
Honing and Clustering
When students first learn a formal physics concept, they do so in a limited context and in isolation from
other closely related ideas. Over time the students are expected to generalize their understanding of a
concept and integrate it with other knowledge so that they can apply the concept in a wide range of
contexts.
Analyze and Reason Using Concepts
Once students understand a concept (or set of concepts), an important goal is to get them to use their
understanding to analyse and reason about more complex situations. By analysis, we simply mean to
break a situation down into basic parts to better understand the whole. Reasoning involves putting
together the parts to draw conclusions or make judgments. Analyse and Reason assessment items
require students to deal with complex situations and questions that can be addressed qualitatively, but
would be extremely difficult for them to solve using an equation-centred approach.
Concept-Based Problem Solving
A goal of instruction is to improve students‘ ability to use their knowledge of physics concepts to solve
both quantitative and qualitative problems. In most traditional courses students focus so much on the
algebraic aspects of problem solving, they never learn how to use physics concepts to solve problems.
In order to put in practice, the systematic formative assessment requires development of e-diagnostic
modules on important topics to begin with. Conceptual understanding can be reliably ascertained only
by testing the same concept in a variety of contexts. Such a test would require a lot of time in evaluating
the responses. Immediate feedback cannot be given. The problem is further complicated due to
language difficulties. Objective tests are easy to evaluate. But they are not reliable indicators of
conceptual understanding unless a sufficiently large number of questions dealing with the same set of
10
concepts are answered all correctly. In order to ascertain conceptual understanding a student may have
to take the test several times. A fresh set of questions must be presented with each attempt. Therefore,
for each set of concepts a very large set of questions must be available.
Keeping these observations in mind, there is a need to create e-diagnostic modules on important topics.
For this, the following procedure is suggested:
o Divide the topic into a small number of conceptual categories. Each concept category must
consist of a single concept or a combination of concepts.
o Arrange the concept categories in a hierarchical sequence. If mastery of concepts in category A
are a pre-requisite for correctly answering questions in category B then category A must appear
earlier than category B in this sequence.
o Prepare a very large number (about 50) of True/False questions for each category. Each
question must belong uniquely to one of the concept categories. To answer a question
belonging to a particular concept category correctly, it should be necessary to understand all the
concepts belonging to that category.
o To test for a particular concept category, present randomly chosen ‗n‘ True/False questions
from that category. The probability of correctly answering all the questions by random choices
is (1/2)n, so if the value of n is large, it will be unlikely that a student will be able to answer all
the questions correctly without understanding the concepts involved in the category. A good
choice of n is 7 as (1/2)7 = 1/128 is less than 1%.
o Present these questions one at a time and inform the student immediately whether the answer is
correct. This will allow a student to think about the reasons for getting the answer wrong. A
wrong answer challenges a student‘s conceptual framework forcing a rethink and modification
of the framework.
o Ask a student who is unable to answer all the 7 questions correctly, to take remedial measures
for overcoming the conceptual deficiency and take the diagnostic test again, till all 7 questions
are answered correctly.
o Motivate a student to persist with a concept category till proper understanding is achieved. It
can be assumed that a student who can answer all the 7 questions correctly has understood the
concepts required for that category. Thereafter the student can move on to the next concept
category.
o A diagnostic test has the advantage that a student has to spend time and effort on a topic only to
the extent needed.
Organize and Interrelate Groups of Concepts
At the program level in particular, the desired overall outcome for students is not just the mastery of
individual components but the ability to put the pieces together in an integrated whole. Students should
have at least one opportunity to demonstrate such integration in an assessment that measures more than
one of the program outcomes
The Refresher Courses should reinvent itself by underlining the need of learning outcomes-based
curriculum framework (LOCF) adopted by UGC intended to acquire and maintain standards of
achievement in terms of knowledge, understanding and skills and their applications as well as the
development of scientific attitudes and values appropriate for rational reasoning, critical thinking and
developing skills for problem solving and initiating research, which are competitive globally and are on par
in excellence with the standard HEI as desired from a developed nation.
Refresher Courses (multi/ inter/ trans-disciplinary):
Some of the most significant research occurs at the interfaces between traditional research areas. This
is even more likely to be true in the future because the solution to complex problems will require experts and
expertise in many different disciplines—and increasingly expertise in more than one field. If this research is
to be successful, individuals must be broadly trained so that they can understand and contribute to
research that overlaps different fields. Therefore, the Refresher Courses that are multi/ inter/ trans-
disciplinary approaches are to resolve real world or complex problems, to provide different perspectives on
problems, to create comprehensive research questions and pave the way for nucleation of new disciplines into
a coordinated and coherent whole, therefore, these categories of Refresher Courses keep exploring such
possibilities by identifying emerging disciplines that are yet to be fossilised, as today's interdisciplinary
research often ends up as tomorrow's ―traditional‖ discipline. Sometimes an interdisciplinary field is in such
early stages that it has no name and there remains uncertainty about whether it will in fact emerge, for example
the intersection of robotics, computational models, machine learning, and developmental psychology is
11
concerned with behaving organisms and devices learning to operate in a real-world environment.The field-
specific training could be ―broad training‖ that allows new concepts and approaches to develop through
synergy with new areas such as ―Synthetic biology‖ that will sequence and analyze genomes to create custom-
designed bootable organisms and biological robots that can produce chemicals from scratch, like biofuels.
Likewise,―Quantitative biology‖, as its name implies, may be an effort to understand biological processes
through the language of mathematics. Computational social science may study the copious amounts of
information left behind from emails, mobile phone calls, tweets, credit card purchases, Google searches, and
so on. Cognitive economics (or finance) may focus on the internal structure of individuals‘ decision-making
for example, how does information enter the mind and how is it processed, what form do preferences take
internally, and then ultimately how are all those processes expressed in our behaviour. An effort to quantify
and describe the broad social forces of history, both to study the past, and as a potential way to predict the
future and sometimes forecasting social unrest may be studied by broad training in diverse fields. The
astronomers are able to peer more closely into the inner-workings of nearby planets and moons, they're
increasingly able to track atmospheric conditions and weather patterns. Like exo-oceanographers and exo-
geologists, the Geologists may also be exposed to exo-meteorologists and may be interested in studying
natural processes which occur on planets other than Earth. Organic electronics may introduce the potential for
organic solar cells, self-assembling monolayers in functional electronic devices, and chemical circuits that
could replace computer chips for human implantation. The HRDCs in consultation with experts must venture
upon re-christening the new programs that are at interfaces and gauge their success if the discipline gets
recognitions in a given time frame.
SHORT TERM LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT COURSES
The Universities are envisaged as the torch bearers of the higher education efforts in India. It is therefore
important that the Universities are sensitized towards Leadership and developing a vision for excellence in
higher education in India. With an objective to promote introspection about the present culture and processes of
each university and discuss ways of creating a shared vision so that all stakeholders can jointly contribute to its
overall aspirations, ―Short Term Workshops‖ for ―Senior Level (teaching experience more than 8 years)‖ and
―Middle Level (experience more than 5 years)‖ Leadership for academic excellence in Higher education should
be conducted under the aegis of HRDCs.
It is envisaged that the HRDCs should come forward for offering Short Term Courses (6Days) on Leadership
Development covering following aspects (Each day the program starts with Yoga and Meditation):
[Managing Higher Education Institute: Strategic Change, Team Building, Globalisation of Indian Higher
Education: Challenges for Teaching and Research, People Skill & Interpersonal Effectiveness. New Education
