This section explores the theoretical foundations behind the development of teaching and learning resources at ITM University. We utilize a modern Constructivist approach, building upon the ideas of Piaget and Vygotsky:

Piaget’s concept of knowledge construction through experience informs the design of ITM University’s learning resources. We provide learners with a context, a problem, and success criteria, allowing them to actively build knowledge through independent exploration using the provided materials. This approach ensures a more structured learning experience compared to entirely self-directed discovery methods.

Vygotsky’s notion of the “zone of proximal development” guides the creation of differentiated resources. At ITM University, we offer tasks with varying levels of difficulty, including “stretch tasks” for advanced learners and appropriately scaffolded activities to support those who need it. This ensures all learners are challenged appropriately while remaining engaged.

Further Bloom’s taxonomy informs the design by reflecting the learning journey inherent in project and problem-based learning (PBL). Pedagogy at ITM University cater to the entire spectrum of learning objectives, from knowledge acquisition to evaluation, aligning with the principles of PBL pedagogy.

Activity Based Continuous Assessment System (ABCA)

ITM University is first to adopt Activity Based Continuous Assessment System in M.P. which is being implemented at IITs, IIMs and among best universities of the world. A student is evaluated for his/her performance in a subject in a continuous manner during a Semester/Trimester. The major components under ABCA in our School of Management include Application Based Activity, Projects, Case Writing, Review of Literature, Seminar, Quiz, Poster, Open Book Test, Quiz and Assignments etc. We have also developed a unique culture to give prizes for the best individual and group ABCA activities to boost the students.

Project-based learning (PBL)

Project-Based Learning (PBL) embodies a philosophy of education that emphasizes active, experiential learning. At its core, PBL shifts the focus from passive absorption of information to hands-on engagement with real-world problems and challenges. This approach encourages students to take ownership of their learning journey, fostering a deeper understanding of concepts and enhancing retention. Moreover, PBL promotes the development of essential skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and problem-solving – skills that are indispensable in today’s rapidly evolving world. By immersing students in authentic projects, PBL nurtures their curiosity, creativity, and intrinsic motivation to learn. Additionally, PBL aligns with the idea of lifelong learning, preparing students not only for academic success but also for success in their future careers and endeavours. Ultimately, the merits of PBL lie in its ability to cultivate well-rounded individuals who are not only knowledgeable but also adept at applying their knowledge to address real-world challenges.

Some of the ongoing PBL topics are as under

• Sensitivity Analysis of Google’s Financial Performance
