- 1. This specification table shall be treated as a general guideline for students and teachers. The actual distribution of marks in the question paper may slightly vary from above table.
- 2. Ask the questions from each topic as per marks weightage. Numerical questions are to be asked only if it is specified. Optional questions must be asked from the same topic.
- 10. SUGGESTED STUDENT ACTIVITIES Other than the classroom and laboratory learning, following are the suggested student-related co- Advance Foundry Course Code: 4352106 curricular activities which can be undertaken to accelerate the attainment of the various outcomes in this course: Students should conduct following activities in group:
- 1. Industrial visit of any advance foundry plant.
- 2. Make a report based on the observations of various materials and basic/advanced tools being used in visited foundry.
- 3. Prepare a layout of integrated advance foundry plant.
- 4. Discuss on environmental issues and control in the foundry shop.
- 5. Prepare safety plan to be used in the event of an accident in foundry shop.
- 6. Prepare a list of various fluxes used in melting practices for the casting production of ferrous and non-ferrous metals & alloys.
- 7. List out relevant ASTM standards used for various testings of cast ferrous and non-ferrous metals & alloys.
- 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/sub topics. b) Guide student(s) in undertaking micro-projects. c) ‘L’ in section No. 4 means different types of teaching methods that is to be employed by teachers to develop the outcomes. d) About 20% of the topics/sub-topics which are relatively simpler or descriptive in nature is to be given to the students for self-learning, but to be assessed using different assessment methods. e) With respect to section No.10, teachers need to ensure to create opportunities and provisions for co-curricular activities. f) Guide students on how to address issues on environment and sustainability. g) Encourage students to read codes and standards.
- 12. SUGGESTED MICRO-PROJECTS Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student that needs to be assigned to him/her in the beginning of the semester. In the first four semesters, the micro-projects are group- based. However, in the fifth and sixth semesters, it should be preferably be individually undertaken to build up the skill and confidence in every student to become problem solver so that he/she contributes to the projects of the industry. In special situations where groups have to be formed for micro-projects, 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 in fact, an integration of PrOs, UOs and ADOs. Each student will have to maintain dated work diary consisting of Advance Foundry Course Code: 4352106 individual contribution in the project work and give a seminar presentation of it before submission. The total duration of the micro-project should not be less than 16 (sixteen) student engagement hours during the course. The student ought to submit micro-project by the end of the semester to develop the industry-oriented COs. A suggestive list of micro-projects is given here. This has to match the competency and the COs. Similar micro-projects could be added by the concerned course teacher:
- 1. Selection of various materials used for specific casting for specific application.
- 2. Seminar/presentation on advancement in foundry.
- 3. Prepare chart/model for Foundry plant.
- 4. Make a report on collection of different final casting products and identify the possibilities of casting processes from which it is made.
- 5. Make a report on environmental impact of foundry.
- 6. Compare suitability of different cast irons for service conditions.
- 7. A literature review on specific ferrous or non-ferrous casting for specific application.
