GENERAL GUIDELINES
Course Objectives are brief, clear statements that describe the desired
learning of instruction; i.e., the specific skills, values, and attitudes
students are intended to acquire. Three learning objectives are
What do you want your graduates to know?
What do you want your graduates to think or care about?,
What do you want your graduates to be able to do?
Learning Outcome are set of statements setting out what the
participants should be able to do / understand by the end of the Unit.
Learning Outcomes are statements that describe significant and essential
learning that learners have achieved, and can reliably demonstrate at the
end of a course or program
Learning outcome muse be clear and precise, learner-oriented, realistic
and achievable. (Words such as State, Describe, Explain, Use, Identify,
Analyze, Compare, Demonstrate, Plan, Develop can be used)
Course Outcome are set of
statements setting out what the
participants should be able to do / understand at the end of the course.

Assignment dates shall be fixed in consent with all 6 subject faculties
so as to give equal time slot balance for the students. Assignment dates
should be prior to Assessment & Model Exams.
Course plan Pages 1 to 6 shall be included in Question bank
Review sheet is experience summary sheet to be included in the course
file for future reference (staff has to fill in the sheet after completing the
course) & need not be included in Question Bank.
Updated Question Bank shall be given appropriate version numbers
GUIDELINES FOR ASSIGNMENT
1. Student Groups shall be formed (Eg. Class strength :50, each group
comprising 10 members, totaling 5 groups). As per the number of groups,
Assignment question I, II has to be identified by faculty. (5 groups means,
5 questions for Assignment I, II). Group 1 shall be allotted Qn 1 from
Assignment I & Qn. 1 from Assignment II and likewise the other groups.
2. For Assignment I, each group has to attend 1 question in detail (Min. of 8
pages). Marks will be credited for Assessment I.
3. For Assignment II, as per the specification mentioned student groups has
to develop model/simulate the assigned task. Work has to documented
individually (Title, Objective, Description, Requirement, Implementation
details, Inference).
4. Award of marks :Document-05, Presentation-05, Demo-10
