LANGUAGE LAB

English Language Lab has become highly valued in engineering colleges because it provides students an organized e-learning environment that is reliable and successful. New technologies are implemented in laboratory based classes, as they accomplish the teacher's role in creating an attractive learning environment for the learner. In addition, it offers additional practice time and up-to-date exercises for the students. The English language lab is an extremely useful tool that facilitates language classes and interaction via computer based activities and exercises to make the learning method interesting. It gives completely unique experience from the traditional system of learning and teaching language by offering advanced features.

The college has a well-equipped Language Laboratory with audio-visual equipment to aid in imparting communication skills and soft skills. Special sections are available in the Language Laboratory to teach the basics of English to the students from rural backgrounds, helping them to build their confidence. The Lab is equipped with a server of minimum configuration of PIV System which has 1 GB RAM / 40 GB HDD, OS: Win 2000 & JRE 1.3, and with headphones. The Client Systems (60 Nos.) have a configuration of PIII, 512 MB RAM / 40 GB HDD, OS: Win 2000& JRE 1.3 and with headphones. The language lab is also furnished with a Handicam, 46” Television, Collar mike, Cordless mike, Audio Mixer, DVD recorder/player and LCD Projector with MP3/CD/DVD provision for Audio/video facility.

Two software packages namely Hiclass and English mastery are available, which can be used by 60 users at a time for the development of LSRW skills (Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing). The software contains different modules like Grammar, Vocabulary, word pronunciation and so on. Language lab aims at confidence-building among students for interactions and presentations in English by conducting group discussions, model presentations and mock interviews. It also helps the students to prepare competitive examinations such as GRE/TOEFL/IELTS etc.

The main objective of the Language Lab is:

• To enable learners to develop their communicative competence.
• To facilitate them to hone their soft skills.
• To help learners develop their speaking skills in real context.
• To enable learners listen to lectures and comprehend them.
• To equip them with employability skills to enhance their prospect of placement.
