Suggested Practicals/ Exercises
The practicals in this section are PrOs ( i . e sub-components of the COs) to be developed and assessed in the student for the attainment of the competency.
- Identify the material from given crystal structure
- Determine the thermal and electrical conductivity of given metal.
- Determine the Tensile strength, Yield strength. Impact Strength of given material

Note
- A suggestive list of PrOs is given in the above table. More such PrOs can be added to attain the COs and competency. A judicial mix of minimum 12 or more practical need to be performed, out of which, the practicals marked as are compulsory, so that the student reaches the Precision Level’ of Dave s Psychomotor Domain Taxonomy as generally required by the industry.
- The Process’ and Product’ related skills associated -with each PrO is to be assessed according to a suggested sample given below:
Performance Indicators Weightage in %
- Preparation of experimental set up 20%
- Setting and operation 20%
- Safety measures 10%
- Observations and Recording 10%
- Interpretation of result and Conclusion 20%
- Answer to sample questions 10%
- Submission of report in time 10%
The above PrOs also comprise of the following social skills/attitudes which are Affect ve Domain Outcomes (ADOs) that are best developed through the laboratory/field based experiences:
- Follow safety practices.
- Practice good housekeeping.
- Demonstrate working as a leader/a team member
- Maintain tools and equipment
- Follow ethical practices
The ADOs are not specific to any one PrO. but are embedded in many PrOs. Hence, the acquisition of the ADOs takes place gradually in the student when s/he undertakes a series of practical experiences over a period of time. Moreover, the level of achievement of the ADOs according to Krathwohls ‘Affective Domain Taxonomy’ should gradually increase as planned below:
- ‘Valuing Level in 1st year
- ‘Organising Levelin 2nd year and
- ‘Characterising Level in 3rd year.
Major Equipment/ Instruments Required
The major equipment with broad specification mentioned here will usher in uniformity in conduct of experiments, as well as aid to procure equipment by authorities concerned
- Beakers (TOO ml to 500 ml. All Expt
- Conical Flask (100 ml to 250 ml. All Expt
- Pipette (10 ml to 25 ml. All Expt
- Burette with stand All Expt
- Conductivity meter 1, 12
- Different Metallic and Nonmetallic Material 2, 3, 8, 9, 12

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:
- Massive open online courses (MOOCs) may be used to teach various topics/sub topics
- in item No. 4 does not mean only the traditional lecture method, but different types of teaching methods and media that are to be employed to develop the outcomes.
- About 15-20% of the topics/siib-topics which is relatively simpler or descriptive in nature is to be given to the students for self-directed learning and assess the development of the COs through classroom presentations (see implementation guideline for details)
- With respect to item No 10 teachers need to ensure to create opportunities and provisions for co-curricular activities.
- Guide student ( s ) in undertaking micro-projects.
Suggested Micro-Projects:
Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student assigned to him/her in the beginning of the semester. S/he ought to submit it by the end of the semester to develop the industry oriented COs. Each micro-project should encompass two or more COs which are in fact, an integration of PrOs, UOs and ADOs. The micro-project could be industry application based, internet-based, workshop-based, laboratory-based or field-based. Each student will have to maintain dated work diary consisting of individual contribution in the project work and give a seminar presentation of it before submission. The total duration of the microproject should not be less than 16 (sixteen) student engagement hours during the course.
In the first four semesters, the micro-project could be group-based. However, in higher semesters, it should be individually undertaken to build up the skill and confidence in every student to become problem solver so that s/he contributes to the projects of the industry A suggestive list is given here Similar micro-projects could be added by the concerned faculty:
- Metal and Nonmetal: Collect samples of different metal and nonmetal and samples Test physical, chemical, thermal, electrical and mechanical properties
- Polymer Industry: Visit nearby polymer industry and prepare detailed presentation based on the working of the equipment.
- Steel Industry: Visit nearby steel industry and prepare detailed presentation based on the working of the equipment
- Corrosion rate: Prepare chart showing corrosion rate of metals in different environments
- Visit nearby small scale industry to collect data about Material of construction.
