RKU took a new direction in academic reforms by embracing activity focused outcomes-based education paradigm. Several practices are followed on the campus in the areas of pedagogic practices, curriculum design, teaching-learning, assessment, research, and entrepreneurship. All of the faculty are innovating in these areas and enriching the education ecosystem of the campus. Today RKU wish to stands out as a leader on the strengths of its clear vision, sustained processes, practices, and being a lighthouse to others.
Faculty Conclave is envisaged as the annual event that provides a forum for the faculty members to showcase their innovative educational experiments and share the experiences. Last time RKU had a humble beginning with 3 papers with the use of the easy chair as the conference management tool. It is a great success in terms of the enthusiastic participation and inspires several others in the educational research to publish.
The second in the series – “Faculty Conclave 2018” – is tentatively scheduled for July 14, Saturday, 2018, the first Saturday as new academic session begins. This conclave is expected to provide a platform for the faculty members to exchange their thoughts and share their experiences in academic space
