Conducting Survey of the Geographical Surroundings of Nasik District

Objectives of the Practice:
  • 1.To acquaint students with the concept of a Geographical Survey.
  • 2.To locate the geographical boundaries of Nashik District.
  • 3.To know the special features of the Nashik District.
  • 4.To sensitize students to the various environmental issues faced by the Nashik District.
  • 5.To encourage the application of subject knowledge.
  • 6.To introduce a survey as a primary research tool for future research.
    • The Context:

    Geography is the study of land, its features, inhabitants, physical qualities and climate. The students of geography learn all these things theoretically in the classroom. But they rarely apply their subject knowledge to their surroundings. Moreover, in subjects like Geography, there is a lot of scope for the practical application of the subject knowledge. In fact, with many climatic changes and their impacts, we need to study geography from new perspectives. The students of Geography need to be more eco-friendly exploring the surrounding around and finding out their special features. The Nashik district displays a beautiful geographical landscape. The pleasant climate of Nashik has added to its beauty. The survey is the basic research tool in geography. To acquaint the students with this basic research tool and to make them familiar with the geographical features of Nashik District the Department of Geography undertakes different surveys of the Nashik District. The students also prepare reports based on the surveys.

    The Practice:

    The survey of the field is the basic research tool in any research and specifically research in Geography. The survey method is based on observation and can lead to preliminary conclusions. To stimulate future research and to sensitize students to various research areas, the Department of Geography undertakes different geographical surveys of the surroundings of the Nashik district. These surveys are theme based and prove very significant in the study of different surroundings of Nashik District. They not only bring out the special features of the Nashik district but also give an insight into certain acute environmental issues like water conservation, pollution, soil erosion, climate change or the socio-economic status of the region. The surveys are based on targeted questionnaires which are analyzed and interpreted for the final conclusion. After the survey, the students write projects based on the survey and prepare posters also to highlight the findings of the surveys.

    The first survey is based on the study of the dams in the Nashik district. There are altogether forty medium and large dams in Nashik District. Through this survey, they could find out the location of the dams, their height, storage capacity and the population the dam feeds, the agricultural products depending on the dam, floodgates and the security measures of the dam.

    Students also made a survey of the Water Management of the Nashik District. Through the survey, they studied different aspects of water management like different sources of water, water conservation and preservation, the wastage of water, and water pollution. They could also study the total distribution of water for agriculture, industry and for domestic use. The students also conducted agricultural surveys of the Nashik district. They came to know what agricultural products are possible in Nashik district as per the climate and the fertility of the soil of the district and therefore, typical to Nashik district.

    The students conducted a Population Survey of the Nashik district. This is basically a demographic survey to find out the population size, density, age, sex ratio, death rate and birth rate of a particular area of the district. The students could do the most important survey on Land Use and Land Cover of Nashik district. Thus, they could find out the Land Use – human use of land for agricultural purposes, industry, residential and cultural purposes. They could also find out the Land Cover – the landscape, greenery, water, sand etc. The students also make a survey of the regional disparity of the district to find out the special features of the region. The students have also surveyed the tourist centers of the district and studied the scope of various opportunities there.

    Evidences of Success:

    A number of students from the Department of Geography have participated in the activity of survey of the surroundings of the Nashik District. There has been good team spirit built up in them as they come together in peer groups and frame the questionnaires. They frequently referred to the research questionnaires before finalizing their questionnaire. They also learned to analyze the questionnaire for the final conclusions. After the survey, they got an insight into the physical geography of Nashik. They also came to know about the socio-economic aspects of geography which adds to their knowledge of geography. There was a practical application of knowledge. The students could have experiential learning. After the survey, the students prepared projects on it and presented posters based on the survey. The department has a collection of projects and posters made by students. The students are acquainted with the research tools like questionnaires and surveys.

    Problems Encountered and Resources Required:

    Motivating students for research has been a problem, especially for students from rural and tribal areas. As students have to spare extra time for survey, projects, posters the time constraints have been continuous issue. During pandemic there were restrictions on conducting surveys. However, the students could conduct online survey. But, here the issue of technology seemed to dominate as the students had to learn the technology to be able to conduct online survey.
