Contemporary teacher has to be a Superhuman to perform his/her duties said by Prof. R. K. Shevgonkar , IIT Bombay on 11 Oct 2021

 While addressing the online inauguration ceremony of ATAL FDPs, Prof. R. K. Shevgonkar has suggested in his address as a chief guest that today's teacher has to work as a superhuman being to perform his/her duties. There are mainly four domains in which a teacher has to perform in the present era. These are:

1:  Personal Development, 2: Instructional domain, 3: Organizational Domain, 4: Professional Development


Prof. Shevgonkar told that in personal development, a teacher has to interact with the teacher on regular basis as a good friend and good mentor so that students can get proper advice, direction, and appropriate guidance without hesitation. 

In the instructional domain,  a teacher should have good digital literacy and efficient digital capabilities. A teacher should be aware of different modes of teaching and learning environments such as online, normal physical classes, flipped classes, asynchronous and self-learning modes. 



A teacher has to design the syllabus and teach courses that are outcome-based learning, student-centric. Training 
In the organizational domain, a teacher should aware of NEP-2020 NAC and help students with their training and placement. 
At the Professional Development level, a teacher has to do quality research, resource mobilization, fund generation so that in the NIRF ranking, the host institute shall get more funding. Faculty has to be a good linkage with industry.

Fabricate your Electronics IC free of cost and realize your dreams come true

 There is good news that the company efabless.com gives an opportunity to every electronics engineer to fabricate their integrated circuits free of cost.



Ref: https://www.efabless.com

The following project requirements must be met in order to qualify for inclusion on the shuttle program:

  • The project must be targeted on the currently-supported SkyWater Open PDK for the 130nm process.
  • The project must be posted on a git-compatible repo and be publicly accessible.
  • The top-level of the project must include a LICENSE file for an approved open-source license agreement. Third-party source code must be identified and source code must contain proper headers. See details here.
  • The repo must include project documentation and adhere to Google's inclusive language guidelines. See details here.
  • The project must be fully open. The project must contain a GDSII layout, which must be reproducible from source contained in the project.
  • Projects must use a common test harness and padframe based on the Caravel repo. New projects should start by duplicating or forking the Caravel User Project repo and implementing their project using the user_project_wrapper. The Caravel repo is configured as a submodule in the project under the ‘caravel’ directory. Note -- you do not need to initialize nor clone the Caravel sub-directory to complete or submit your project. See the project README for further instructions. The projects must be implemented within the user space of the layout and meet all requirements for the Caravel.
  • Projects must successfully pass the Open MPW precheck tool, including LVS and DRC clean using the referenced versions of OpenLane flow. Projects should implement and pass a simulation testbench for their design integrated into Caravel. The Caravel User Project provides an example of how to implement this.

Two-Day International Conference (With recordings) on ONLINE TEACHER EFFECTIVENESS & DIGITAL CAPABILITIES: KEYS FOR QUALITY EDUCATION AND RESEARCH: 5-6 Oct. 2021


How to teach online: providing continuity for students

In this pandemic time, when the entire teaching and learning process has been compelled to adopt an online mode of learning, the course on "how to teach online" becomes inevitable. I, as a learner, completed my first courses in online mode in the year 2015. Since then till today,
I have completed a few more professional certificate courses, and I happened to be familiar with the online learning mode. However, as a teacher, only in pandemic time, I start teaching online, specifically in synchronous mode.  After completing a course on "How to teach online," I realize that synchronous mode is not ideal because of its high demanding nature. Glad to share that I have completed this course and shall try to implement those new skills of online teaching, which I learned while pursuing this course on "How to teach online." 



I would encourage every teacher to pursue this course at the Future Learn website, accessed by clicking here.

I have given a presentation at international conferences on 6th October 2021 based on the content from the course mentioned above.


 Interested can access the ppt by clicking here.

Please tune in at 1.54.41 hrs onwards in video recording to listen to my talk.
