Suggested Student Activities:
Other than the classroom and laboratory learning, following are the suggested student-related co-curricutar 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:
- Do the internet survey and make a list of leading manufactures of the PLC, SCADA, DCS, HMI and other industrial automation tools with their brand name.
- Refer operating manual of the PLCs of reputed Manufactures and prepare a step by step procedure to use PLC for the specified application.
- Prepare a Power point presentation on the troubleshooting techniques of PLC.
- Prepare the safety precautions list to be followed for installation of PLC system.
- Download animated videos from the internet for any theory topic and make presentation on it.
- Prepare a list of available analog input /output devices, digital input /output devices available in the market.
- Guide the students for steps to be followed to configure available SCADA software.
Suggested Special Instructional Strategies:
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.
- 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.
- Students can participate in the online industrial automation forums.
