    At the very first outset I would like to say that  we all the participants were from different parts of the country therefore the first challenge before us how to interact and adjust with each other in dormitory in the initial days of  programme. But as the course progress further participants became familiar with each other and a family i.e. OP 17 emerged out due this dormitory facilities given over here to us. 

    We accept that the hostels are under construction and very soon ASC would be in a position to provide separate accommodation to all participants coming over here in future to attend RC and OP.  The ASC did its best to provide us all facilities despite of having shortage of accommodation. For this I and my fellow participants are thankful to ASC and university authorities for arranging each and everything for us in niece way in this winter season

    As we all know that in any OP participants of different disciplines participate and under such circumstance it becomes difficult for any ASC to arrange resource persons of all disciplines. I on behalf of my fellow participants would like to congrates ASC who as per the expectations of participants called and invited senior persons to deliver lectures here. The OP-17 family feels that senior resource persons having knowledge and command over their subjects should be invited in orientation programmes.  All senior resource persons interacted with participants on very useful and common topics easily understandable to all. I extend thanks on behalf of all participants for arranging good resource persons who spoke on very useful burning issues such as Corruption, National Integration, and Disaster Management, fossil fuels, teaching skills and so many others. 

    All members of OP 17 agree that the course designed for this OP was good from many aspects. We learned lot of new things which can uplift our teaching and research standards. Mention worthy assignments allotted us were writing research project proposal, micro teaching, film documentary review and PPP.  Majority of the participants were not acquainted with the skill how to write Research Project Proposal. Writing individual research project proposal was new experience for them. Respected Sir we assure you that after going back from here to our respective departments those who were not working on projects they will work and send individuals projects to different funding agencies. 

     Similarly Power Point presentation was another useful assignment from which we learned different things. The participants learned how to prepare and present PPP. It was a new experience to majority of the participants. In this context we all are thankful to Dr. Reetesh  Sah who told us how to prepare PPT. It would enhance our teaching skills and would also make teaching the easier job.  

    Micro Teaching was another useful assignment. The feedback given to participants was valuable and useful to improve teaching skills. However in this context member of OP- 17 family feel that there should be video recording of the micro teaching and some subject experts should be there to judge contents of topic taught by participants. We are thankful to Prof. B.L. Sah & Dr. Diyva Joshi who acknowledged this fact during micro teaching presentation. We expect that ASC would think over it.  We appreciate the efforts of ASC for giving us proper feedback which could be very useful to improve our skills in teaching carrier in future. 

    A study tour was also organized during this OP and participants visited to different lakes in and around Nainital. It was good experience to all the participants to visit together to various beautiful places and to spend some time in the lap of nature at all places. Thanks to ASC for providing us transportation facilities to make this tour unforgettable for us.

     So for as the quality of food provided during 28 days is concerned it was good. The ASC and the mess team took care about the variety of food provided in breakfast, lunch and dinner. All participants are happy and satisfied with food quality. 

     In last I on behalf of my fellow participants want to conclude that overall the course design was good. The project proposal, group research projects, film review and micro teachings all were good and participants learnt lot of things from this OP 17. We once again extend our thanks to the teaching and non teaching Staff of ASC who helped us in varity of ways to make this course a complete success for us. We all participants assure ASC that we would not miss to attend RC here in future if opportunity would be given to us.
