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:
- Market survey of different yarns and fabrics and compare them based on their properties, applications, and prices.
- Library survey regarding yarns and fabrics used in different industries.
- Prepare table for different chemicals used in fabric wet processing of cotton and their effects on fabric properties after treatment.
- Prepare question bank referring earlier MSBTE question papers.
- Give seminar on relevant topic.
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.
- Encourage students to refer different websites to have deeper understanding of the subject.
- Assign unit wise assignments to group of 4 to 5 students for solving unit wise questions.
- Use of video, animation films to explain concepts, facts and applications related to textile testing.
