Performance Indicators
- Safety measures during visit 20
- Observations and Recording 30
- Answer to sample questions 20
- Submission of report in time 30
The above PrOs also comprise of the following social skills/attitudes which are Affective Domain Outcomes (ADOs) that are best developed through the laboratory/field based experiences:
- Follow safety practices.
- Practice good housekeeping.
- Work as a leader I team member.
- 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 Levelin 1st year.
- Organization Level* in 2nd year.
- Characterization Level* in 3rd year.
MAJOR EQUIPMENT/ INSTRUMENTS REQUIRED
The major equipment with broad specification mentioned here will be useful in uniformity in conduct of experiments, as well as aid to procure equipment by adiministrators.
- Specific Uniform, Helmet, Goggle, Hand Gloves, specific shooes etc. 6-11
- Use of specific models and charts for explanation regarding solid waste management practices. 6-11
- Demonstration of specific Documentary, films or animated film related to solid waste management practices 6-11

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:
- Preparation of charts showing solid waste management techniques.
- Preparation of charts showing tools, equipment, vehicles and machineries used in solid waste management practices.
- Preparation of compost using decomposable waste material at home adopting appropriate method.
- Preparation of compost using decomposable waste material at the institute adopting appropriate method.
- Preparation of vermicompost using decomposable waste material and worms at home.
- Preparation of vermicompost using decomposable waste material and worms at institute.
- Recycling of plastic wastes obtained from various sources and study the machineries and outcome product.
SUGGESTED SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES (if any)
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.
- Arrange visit to nearby newly started site for understanding various solid waste management practices.
