Community Service
Service learning, volunteerism, and development of values for service to others are recognized as an indispensable and important characteristic of teacher education. PCE is committed to providing rich and real-life opportunities for the students to engage in positive and constructive community support projects during their study at the College. There are a number of service learning situations where students have the opportunity to recognize service to others, empathy, social responsibility, and leadership of self. A student can collaborate with others to identify projects in a variety of settings such monasteries, villages, schools, families and homes, hospitals, towns, to name few, as well as in developmental situations such as health, sanitation, economic support, early childcare, elderly care, environment, and waste management, among others. Students are supported in their community efforts by the Dean of Student Affairs and Student Service Officers.
Reprographic Services
Students can avail reprographic services on the campus. Provided by Paro Book & Stationery Shop, the services are available from Monday to Saturday from 9am to 5pm. Walking into this shop can save students much time and the need to walk to town. Reprographic works such as photocopying, printing, and lamination can be done here at the shop. Students at all levels of academic programme – diploma, bachelor, postgraduate and Masters – are required to submit computer-typed and printed assignments, project reports and dissertations with proper binding and stapling/stitching. So the Paro Book & Stationery Shop is a convenient lace for the students to visit. Apart from printing services, students can also buy their academic materials (e.g. notebook, writing pens, marker pens, staples, transparent sheets, calculators, highlighters, pencils, celotapes, thumb pins, rulers, sticky pads, files, to name a few.
