1. All written assignments are to be submitted at the designated time and place.
2. Late assignment will not be accepted without a proper reason.
3. Written assignment will return in one week turn-around time again students.
13.TEACHING METHODOLOGIES USED
1. Traditional engineering education like Virtual Class room, LCD projector, Smart Class,
Video Conference, Guest Lecture.
2. Giving real or simulated experimental data to students to analyze and interpret
3. Asking students to formulate a problem from a lesson covered in a weeks time
Assignment, Class Test, Slip test
4. Asking students to use state-of-the-art technologies/software to solve design
problems Applications, Rubrics,
5. Introducing students to applications before teaching the theory
6. Training students to engage in self-study without relying on faculty (for example
library and internet search, manual and handbook usage, etc.) Library, Net Surfing,
Manuals, NPTEL Course Materials published in the website and other university
websites.
