Suggested Student Activities:
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 conduct following activities in group and prepare reports of about 5 pages for each activity, also collect/record physical evidences for their (students) portfolio which will be useful for their placement interviews:
- Compile broad specification of DSO, LCR meter, logic analyzer, Spectrum analyser using data sheets and handbook.
- Develop a report after performing market survey of electronic instruments used in the laboratory.
- Prepare a chart of static and dynamic characteristics of the instrument/equipment available in the laboratory.
- Prepare chart to display types of Units.
- Prepare chart to display front panel control of DSO, LCR meter, Logic analyser and Spectrum analyser
- Visit nearby institutes, exhibition and industries to collect information about electronic instruments.
- Assist to the technicians who are doing repair or maintenance work of electronic instruments.
- Prepare instruction chart for safe handling of electronic instruments
Suggested Special Instructional Strategies:
These are sample strategies, which the teacher can use to accelerate the attainment of the various learning outcomes in this course:
- Massive open online courses (MOOCs) may be used to teach various topics/sub topics.
- L 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/sub-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 students in undertaking micro-projects.
- Video programs/YouTube may be used to teach various topics and sub topics.
- Demonstrate set-up arrangement to the students thoroughly before they start doing the practical.
- Encourage students to refer different book and websites to have deeper understanding of the subject.
- Observe continuously and monitor the performance of students in Lab.
- Encourage students to use front/rear panel control of electronic instruments.
- Encourage students to visit nearby electronic instruments repair workshop units or
- Instruct students to safety concern of handling electronic instruments and also to avoid any damage to the electronic instruments.
