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 (student’s) portfolio which will be useful for their placement interviews:
- Prepare journals based on practical performed in laboratory.
- Follow the saf et y precautions.
- Prepare specifications of a given communication medium.
- Test the performance of HUB, Switches, router and Servers.
- Library / Internet survey of computer network and data communication.
- Prepare power point presentation or animation for understanding different switching networks.
- Prepare a presentation on TCP/IP reference model and the OSI reference network model
- Visit to any industry to observe the different networks.
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..
- Video programs/YouTube may be used to teach various topics and sub topics.
- Demonstrate students thoroughly before they start doing the practice.
- 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 manufacturing industries.
- Instruct students to safety concern of handling electronic instruments and also to avoid any damage to the electronic instruments.
