Components of language lab:
The Physical Science Laboratory is well equipped with requisite facilities and equipment. The college has a well-equipped science laboratory with demonstration tables, charts, and models, and apparatus required for conducting science practicals at the school level. The laboratory is utilized for conducting theory and practical classes for teaching physical sciences.
The curriculum of teaching science requires intensive training in conducting practicals at the high school level. To achieve this objective, students are given training in conducting at least 10 practicals in physical sciences. The laboratory is planned in such a way that the contents of theory are substantiated by the charts and models placed in the laboratory, to concretize the phenomena of sciences in the minds of learners.
This laboratory is also utilized for giving demonstration lessons in teaching physical sciences to the student teachers.
The College has a well-equipped biological science laboratory with apparatus, chemicals, stuffed specimens for both botany and zoology subjects as per the revised samacheer curriculum text. Black charts with colorful pictures depicting various diagrammatic concepts in biology are displayed in the laboratory. Human anatomical 3Dimensional Models available in the laboratory are highly helpful for the student teachers to learn more about the structure of the human organ system. Digital microscope, LCD Projector facilities are highly helpful to the student teachers to view the microscopic view of the cells. Sterilizing equipment is also available for maintaining the growth level of microorganisms.
Mathematics Laboratory is a place where students can learn, explore mathematical concepts and verify mathematical facts and theorems through a variety of activities using different materials. These activities may be carried out by the teacher educator or the student-teacher to explore, to learn, to stimulate interest and develop a favorable attitude towards mathematics.
Mathematics Laboratory of our College consists of more than 150 materials including concrete objects, pictures, charts, and models in various branches of mathematics like Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, etc. which are of great help to student-teachers to teach 6th to 12th standard students during the School Internship Programme. The models are so designed to cater to the needs of all segments of teachers and learners in verifying formulas, results, and applications, etc., irrespective of the curriculum.
The College understands the importance of the modern development of psychology and also the philosophical ideology of psychology. Thus, we promote experimental psychology through "Psychology Lab Activities". Various paper test tools and performance-based equipment to conduct experiments in psychology are available. Our lab has more than 40 pieces of equipment which deal with the analysis of various psychological phenomena such as Attention, Learning Behavior, Interest, Personality, etc.
Hands-on experience is provided to the student teachers on training in psychological experiments in a modern way. At the same time, the student teachers are taught the principles of psychological ideas during the experiment. Through the experiments and activities of the psychology lab, our student teachers benefit greatly in psychological understandings on the problems of their future students. Activities for the personal and professional development of the student teachers are also carried out in the laboratory.
An educational technology lab is a place where students with different assessments of educational needs, varied technical skills, and experiences can work and learn together to help increase the outcome of valuable education via technology.
The educational technology laboratory is well equipped with Smart board LCD projector, digital camera, television, and DVD player as resources to enable and achieve our technology-related educational goals. Students are provided training in handling the smart board. Students are engaged to prepare the activity report by using the Smart board. Students are given practice in handling all the technological devices like documentary camera and projectors to develop skills in the recent developments in the area of educational technology.
