MAEL-001 Practical Work Components: Student’s Handbook for Practical Work
This is the practical course. The practical work of the course provides for development of necessary
skills, competencies and abilities required by you as an adult educator for working with the
individuals, community and the institutions. The practical work is based on or related to the
subject content presented in the theory courses. The practical work is suitably categorised and
organised under the following three components or types of practical activities to be performed
by each student of PGDAE.
1) Community-Based Practical Activities
2) Workshop-Based Practical Activities
3) Adult Education/Training Centre/Institution-Based Practical Activities
Some details about these practical activities are as follows.
1) Community-Based Practical Activities: The practical activities under this category will
be performed by each student in the community where (s)he lives and/or works. While
being enrolled as a student of PGDAE, you may be an employee (in-service) in adult education
or allied areas or an un-employee, and thus you are a member of particular community
where you are living and/or working. You will be required to undertake or perform the
specified activities in the community. It is based on the premise that being a member of the
11
community and the student of PGDAE, you can perform certain activities in the community
and for the community. The details about conduct of these activities are presented in the
“Student’s Handbook for Practical Work”, which contains self-sufficient, self-explanatory
and self-instructional material. After going through the same, you will get self-oriented and
self-trained to perform these activities. However, you will perform these activities under the
help and guidance of the mentor(s).
2) Workshop-Based Practical Activities: It is essential that you are exposed to workshop-
based practical experiences to successfully complete PGDAE programme. One workshop
of 12 days will be organised at the Programme Study Centre. The workshop-based practicals
provide for certain pre-workshop, during the workshop and post-workshop activities. The
practical activities under this category will be performed by each student when the workshop
is organised by the concerned Programme Study Centre to which he/she is attached. The
workshop will be conducted by involving the Workshop Director/Facilitator and the resource
persons/experts in adult education and those trained for the purpose. Besides, video
programmes will be used as support materials. In the workshop, you will participate in
various activities individually as well as in groups. These activities provide you adequate
exposure to the practice of adult education and use of participatory processes, approaches,
methods, techniques, etc. in planning, implementation, training, evaluation and research in
adult education. Also, you will get proper feedback on your reports of community-based
practical activities and enrich your skills necessary for organising educational, developmental
and welfare activities for adults and the communities. During the workshop you will also
get orientation to the work to be done by you as a part of adult education/training centre/
institution-based practical activities after the workshop.
3) Adult Education/Training Centre/Institution-Based Practical Activities: It is imperative
that you acquire necessary experiences, abilities and skills of working with an adult education/
training centre/institution involved in promoting educational, training, research, development
and welfare programmes/activities for adults or the communities. It is like an internship for
each unemployed student (pre-service) providing for first ever institutional experience; and
for those already employed (in-service) and involved in the field of adult education and
allied areas, it provides for experiences that help in establishing linkages, coordination and
cooperation for community benefit in specific matters with a new institution or it provides
the opportunity of mentoring the pre-service students by taking them as interns. The practical
activities under this category will be performed by each student as per his/her choice made
from among the specified categories of the Centres/Institutions or the relevant optional
activities provided for.
3. INSTRUCTIONAL SYSTEM
As mentioned earlier, the Open University (IGNOU) system is different from that of any
conventional University. This system is more leaner-oriented or learner-centred. In this system
the learner is an active participant in the teaching-learning process. Most of the instruction is
imparted through distance modes of communication rather than face-to-face communication.
The University follows a multi-media approach for instruction. So, the instructional system of
PGDAE, a programme of IGNOU, also follows multi-media approach i.e. self-instructional
print material, audio-video programmes, assignments, face-to-face counselling sessions/contact
sessions, workshops, teleconferencing and Interactive Radio Counselling. The instructional
system, thus, comprises the following.
12
3.1 Self-instructional Print Material
The print material is written in self-instructional style. It is in the form of blocks (booklets) of
courses for theory and practical components of the programme. It is supplied to each learner
along with a set of assignment questions. The learners have to complete the required assignments
related to each course. Each course may have 3-5 blocks and each block may have 3-6 units in
general. Each course has a code number. The print material for three types of practical activities of
PGDAE programme is available in the form one booklet, Student’s Handbook for Practical Work.
3.3 Assignments
Assignments are an integral and compulsory component of the instructional system. There is
one tutor-marked assignment for each theory course. Students will have to work on these
assignments. Each student should go through the relevant details given about assignments in
this Programme Guide, and submit the assignment responses to the Coordinator/Programme In-
charge of the Programme Study Centre in accordance with the given assignments’ submission
schedule.
3.6 Teleconferencing
Two-way audio and one-way video live teleconferencing sessions are conducted via satellite
through interactive Gyan Darshan Channel from the University studios at EMPC as per the
schedule made available to the Regional and Study Centres. The learners will have to go to the
nearest reception centre at the scheduled time for taking the benefit of this facility.
14
Places of Practical Work: The three categories of practical activities mentioned above will be
conducted/performed at the three different places: a) Community-based practical activities are
conducted in the community where the student lives/works; b) Workshop-based activities are
generally conducted at the Programme Study Centre to which the student is attached; and
c) Adult education/training centre/institution-based practical activities are conducted at the
institution identified by the student from among the specified categories of Centres/Institutions
or as per other options provided for. To sum up, the places of practical work are as follows.
• Community: It is the place where the student lives/works and carries out community-based
practical activities. As per his/her choice and requirement he/she will identify the mentor(s)
from the community or local institutions – formal/non-formal – of his/her choice, who can
guide and help him/her in performing/conducting the specified activity(ies).
The services of the Regional Centres of IGNOU can be utilised by the Programme Study Centres
and students as and when required in respect of any matter related to PGDAE programme. In
order to provide effective support services to the students regarding the theory and practical
work, IGNOU has set up a number of Programme Study Centres all over the country. So, the
detailed particulars regarding Programme Study Centres to which you are attached will be
communicated to you by the Regional Centre concerned. But, you will have to manage your
own resources to reach Programme Study Centre to avail the services.
4. DELIVERY SYSTEM

6. EVALUATION
The scheme of evaluation of student’s performance in the theory courses and the practical course
of PGDAE is as follows.
Theory Courses: For theory courses, evaluation comprises three aspects:
a) Self-evaluation exercises (non-credit) within each unit of study material.
b) Continuous evaluation in the form of periodic compulsory assignments. One assignment for
each course. This carries a weight(age) of 30% for each course.
c) Term-End Examination has a weight(age) of 70% of the total for each course. Term-end
examination will be held in June/December every year. But, for this year batch, that is, for those
enrolled for the academic session beginning from July, 2010, it (TEE) will be held in June, 2011.
Practical Course: There is one practical course. It comprises the following three components
or types of practical activities.
1) Community-Based Practical Activities
2) Workshop-Based Practical Activities
3) Adult Education/Training Centre/Institution-Based Practical Activities
The evaluation of student’s performance in each component or type of activities is done on
continuous and comprehensive basis and the final grade is awarded at the end of the Course.
There is no TEE for the practical course (MAEL-001) or any one of the practical components.
In order to successfully complete a theory course, the student must obtain at least ‘D’ grade in
the assignment and ‘D’ grade in the Term-End Examination (TEE) separately in each course.
However, overall average of grades in Continuous Evaluation (CE) and Term-End Examination
(TEE) in each theory course should be at least “C”.
In Practical Course, the minimum qualifying Grade in each of the three practical components or
types of activities is “C”.
If a student has missed any term-end examination of a course for any reason, s/he may appear in
the subsequent term-end examination. This facility will be available until a student secures the
minimum pass grade, but only up to a period of maximum duration of four years from the date
of registration to the programme.
Letter grade system is used for grading continuous and term-end examination components and
declaring the result. On the basis of total Grade Points of Continuous and Term-End Examination
in a course, the Course Grade is awarded on the 5 point scale in terms of the following range.
Letter Qualitative Grade Average Grade Percentage
Grade Level Points Point Range Equivalent
A Excellent 5 4.50 & above 80% and above
B Very Good 4 3.50 to 4.49 60% to 79.9%
C Good 3 2.50 to 3.49 50% to 59.9%
D Satisfactory 2 1.50 to 2.49 40% to 49.9%
E Unsatisfactory 1 Below 1.49 Below 40%
For successful completion of PGDAE programme, the student must get at least ‘C’ Grade in
each of the theory courses and the practical course separately.

7. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT ASSIGNMENTS
Submission of Assignments
The purpose of our asking you to work on the assignments is to provide you an opportunity of
articulating your assimilated knowledge and understanding into written form and also to test
your capacity of transferring the theoretical learning from the courses to practical situations.
Thus, the assignments, practically enhance your understanding as well as skills of articulation
and expression in writing. There is one assignment for each theory course. The answers to
assignment questions are to be based on your own judgement and experiences as a student of
adult education. You should not reproduce the text materials or copy the information from other
sources. However, you may use the course material and any other sources of information you
have for ready reference. But, the answer should be in your own words and should reflect your
own ideas. You do not have to worry about non-availability of extra reading materials for working
on the assignments. They are designed in such a way as to guide you to integrate the knowledge
of the course materials with your concrete personal experiences. Please note that your assignment
responses carry the weight(age) of 30% marks towards the final evaluation of each theory
course and submission of related assignment responses is a pre-requisite for appearing in theory
term-end examination for respective courses. If you do not complete the assignments, according
to time schedule of assignments of this year, then you have to attempt the assignment(s) of next
academic year. You have to send the assignment-responses to the Programme Study Centre you
are attached to within the date set for each assignment (See the assignments submission schedule
given in this booklet).
The following points should be kept in mind while you prepare and submit the assignment
responses:
1) Write your enrolment number, name, full address and date at the topmost right hand corner
of the first page of your assignment response (Leave the topmost left-hand corner blank for
office use).
2) Just below that, write the course tittle, course code and assignment code in capital letters in
the centre at the top portion of the first page of your response. After that, the top of the first
page of your response should look something like this:
Enrolment No.: ............................................
Name: .........................................................
Address:........................................................
.........................................................
Date:...........................................................
19
(Please follow the above format strictly. If you do not follow this format we will be constrained
to return your responses to you for resubmission. If you do not write your enrolment number
and address, your assignment-responses are likely to be useless and do not serve any purpose).
3) The assignment-response should be complete in all respects. Incomplete responses will bring
you poor grades. Don’t send responses to assignment questions in piece-meal; they may
never be put together in our offices.
4) Use only foolscape size paper for your responses. Use ordinary writing paper, not the very
thin variety.
5) Leave a 3/2 margin on the left, and at least 4 lines in between two answers in an assignment
response. This will enable the resource person evaluating the response to write useful
comments at appropriate places.
6) Make sure that you answer the questions on the basis of the Units sent to you. Make the
answer concise and systematic. Always focus on the question and its various aspects, and try
to avoid irrelevant details.
7) Take care of the word limit, wherever specified in the assignments. Please stick to the word
limit as far as possible. At the same time, make the descriptions adequate and not too short.
The word limit is set to sharpen the focus of your responses and not to restrict your expression.
8) You have to write the answers in your own handwriting. If you feel that your handwriting is
not properly legible, you may send the typed responses.
9) You should not send printed articles as your answers to assignments.
10) Please keep a copy of the assignment responses that you submit. You may need the same in
case you have to resubmit it in situations such as the same is lost in postal transit, or you get
low grade and have to rewrite and submit it again, or for whatever other reasons.
11) Remember that if any two or more answers to a particular assignment are found to be identical
or very similar, they will either be returned unmarked or awarded very low grades. It is
entirely the discretion of the evaluator to ask you to re-do the assignment or give very low
grade in such cases.
12) Please submit the assignment responses by the specified date to the Programme-In-charge/
Coordinator of the concerned Programme Study Centre. If the last date for submission of
the assignment falls on a holiday, the assignment response should be submitted on the
following working day.
20
• Write your Enrolment Number correctly. An incorrect enrolment number may put the
University and you to trouble.
• Maintain copies and an account of assignment responses sent by you to the concerned
Programme Study Centre and the corrected/evaluated responses received by you. This will
help you to maintain the schedule of your work and avoid any difficulties and disappointments
caused by unintended gaps in communication. You can use the format in Appendix-III(3)
for your own monitoring of your assignment responses.
• Do your work regularly. You should remember that by working regularly you get a chance to
do better in later assignments because you can benefit from comments received by you on
your assignment responses.
• Before you write to us seeking answers to your queries, do read this Programme Guide
carefully and completely. We may have already answered your query/queries. Do follow our
instructions carefully.
Don’ts
• Do not write your assignments/letters on thin paper.
• Do not write your enrolment number, course title, etc, on a separate sheet and then paste/
pin/tie it to the assignment responses. Write the enrolment number, name, etc on the top of
assignment-response itself.
• Do not over-write, particularly while writing your enrolment number and the assignment

These will be sent to you at the earliest possible opportunity, if you follow the deadlines for
submitting them.
• Do not misplace/lose your graded assignment-responses. You will need them till the
programme is completed by you.
• Do not enclose doubts, if any, for clarification along with the assignment responses. Send

the course and number of the assignment. In case you want to draw our attention to something
of urgent/important nature, send it in a separate cover.
• Do not lift paragraph(s)/sentence(s) from the text without giving the reference while answering
the assignments.
It will help you to complete the assignment in time if you start working on the assignments as
soon as you get the print material. You should pace out your work in such a way that all the

8. TERM-END EXAMINATION
As stated earlier, term-end examination is another component of the evaluation system. Term-
end examination carries 70% weight(age) in the scheme of evaluation for the final result of each
theory course of PGDAE.
The University conducts term-end examination (TEE) twice a year i. e. in June and in December.
But, the students are eligible to appear in the TEE of relevant programme only after completion
of its prescribed minimum duration, and after fulfilling certain conditions and formalities. For
instance, you are enrolled for the PGDAE programme for the session commencing from July
2010 and you will be completing minimum duration of one year by June, 2011. So you can take
your term-end examination (TEE) in June 2011, (i.e. after completion of prescribed minimum
duration of one year of PGDAE programme) and subject to fulfillment of the prescribed conditions
and formalities. In case you fail to get a pass score (D grade) in the Term-end Examination, you
will be eligible to re-appear in the next Term-end Examination for that course as and when it is
held, till the final span of the programme i. e. prior to completion of the maximum duration of
four years from the date of admission to the programme.
To be eligible to appear at the term-end examination in any course, you are required to fulfill the
following three conditions.
1) You should have pursued the prescribed course.
2) You should have completed the submission of assignments for the respective courses.
3) You should submit the examination form in time for the given term-end examination.
Examination date sheets (schedule which indicate the date and time of examination for each
course) are sent to all the programme study centres approximately five months in advance. The
same is also notified through the IGNOU Newsletter from time to time. Thus, normally, the date
sheet for June term-end examination is sent in the month of January and for the December term-
end examination it is sent in the month of July.
22
It is a pre-requisite to submit the Examination Form with a fee of Rs.50/- per course in the form
of demand draft drawn in favour of IGNOU and payable at New Delhi for taking an examination
in any course. Copies of the examination forms are available at Programme Study Centres,
Regional Centres, and Students Evaluation Division at the Headquarters at New Delhi. A specimen
copy of Examination Form is given at the end of this programme guide (See Appendix – IV) for
your information and reference only.
Only one form is to be submitted for all the courses you are appearing in one term-end examination.
• Normally your Study Centre is the Examination Centre. In case you wish to take examination
at a particular centre, the code of your chosen centre be filled up as examination Centre
Code. However, if Examination Centre chosen by you is not activated, you will be allotted
another Examination Centre under the same Region.
• Change of Examination Centre, once allotted, is not permissible under any circumstances.
Since you got admitted in July, 2010, subject to fulfillment of the above conditions and formalities
you are eligible to appear in June, 2011 TEE. The filled-in examination form is to be submitted

Any mistake in writing the roll number will result in non-declaration of your results.
It is your duty to check whether you are registered for the particular course and whether you are
eligible to appear for that examination or not. If you neglect this and take the examination

3) All types of commnications are attended to as quickly as we can. It is, however,
desirable that you make your letters brief and precise. If your letters present irrelevant detail
and/or are written in ambiguous language, our responses to your queries will invariably get
delayed.
4) Keep a time-table or schedule for yourself and always try to stick to it. Be regular in your
work. Much of your job will become easy. However, at times, you may have to change your
own time-table suitably to adjust yourself to any unforeseen difficulties, such as illness,
official duties, various social obligations, etc. By doing so, you will save yourself from
unexpected delays and forced/unwanted postponements. But, the golden principle is to do
today what you may have planned to do tomorrow.
5) When you read the Booklets/Units carefully, note down the important points. You can use
the space in the broad margins of the pages for making notes and writing your comments.
Try to answer ‘Check Your Progress’ questions. Please remember that the answers to these
questions are not to be sent to us. The purpose is to enable you to evaluate your own
performance while reading and to keep you on the right track. That is why they are called
‘Self-Check’questions. They will enable you to realise whether you have comprehended
what you have read. If you are not satisfied with your answers, do not get disappointed. You
can compare your answers with those given under “Answers to Check Your Progress” section
and see where improvement is needed. They will help you reinforce the information/
knowledge you gain through your first reading of the text. At times, it is possible that you
might have done a better answer than the one we presented. We welcome your suggestions,
if any, in this regard.
6) Besides the printed materials, the other inputs available to you are audio-video programmes,
counselling sessions for theory and practical activities. All these together will help you in
writing your assignments, doing your practical activities and preparing for the final
examinations.
The university reserves the right to change the rules detailed in this Programme Guide. However,
you will be informed about the changes, if any, well in advance.
The academic year of this programme commences from July, 2010 and ends in June, 2011. The
broad nature of activities of PGDAE are presented below in the form of a calender of activities
for your reference and guidance. The following calender of activities of PGDAE will help you
