- 10. SUGGESTEDSTUDENTACTIVITIES Other than the classroom and laboratory learning, following are the suggested student-related co-curricular activities which can be undertaken to accelerate the attainment of the various outcomes in this course: Students should perform following activities in group and prepare reports of about 5 pages for each activity. They should also collect/record physical evidences for their (student’s) portfolio which may be useful for their placement interviews: Following is the list of proposed student activities like:
- 2. Technical Quiz/MCQ Test
- 3. Presentation on some course topic
- 4. I-net based assignments
- 5. Undertake micro-Project in team/individually
- 11. SUGGESTED SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES (if any) These are sample strategies, which the teacher can use to accelerate the attainment of the various outcomes in this course: a) Massive open online courses (MOOCs) may be used to teach various topics/subtopics. b) Guide student(s) in undertaking micro-projects/activities. c) Different types of teaching methods i.e. video demonstration, activity based learning, case study, m-learning need to be employed by teachers to develop the outcomes. d) Some of the topics/sub-topics which are relatively simpler or descriptive are to be given to the students for self-learning but to be assessed using different assessment methods. e) Teachers need to ensure to create opportunities and provisions for co-curricular activities. f) Guide students to address issues on environment and sustainability with reference to using the knowledge of this course g) OERs, Vlab, and Olabs may be used to teach for the teaching of different concepts.

- 12. SUGGESTED MICRO-PROJECTS Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student that needs to be assigned to him/her at the beginning of the semester. In the first four semesters, the micro-project is group-based (group of 3 to 5). However, in the fifth and sixth semesters, the number of students in the group should not exceed three. The micro-project could be industry application-based, internet-based, workshop-based, laboratory-based, or field-based. Each micro-project should encompass two or more COs which are the integration of PrOs, UOs, and ADOs. Each student will have to maintain a dated work diary consisting of individual contributions in the project work and give a seminar presentation of it before submission. The duration of the micro project should be about 14-16 (fourteen to sixteen) student engagement hours during the course. The student sought to submit micro-project by the end of the semester (so that they develop industry- oriented COs. A suggestive list of micro-projects is given here. This should relate highly to the competency of the course and the COs. Similar micro-projects could be added by the concerned course teacher.
