Description
Few selected question to be asked by the Faculty member to recapitulate the knowledge and to know what basic knowledge the student possess. Faculty members must create the interest about the topic among the students with videos/animations/Objects. Topic will be introduced with the power point presentation and animation to give a simple review about the topic. For Notes of Lesson - refer Annexure I. Students are instructed to survey the main headings, sub headings and the words which are given in bold / italics and mentally convert that as questions. Page No : 33-39,122-131 For questions - refer Annexure II. Students are instructed to read elaborately to find the answers for the above framed questions. After reading students are asked to answer the following questions. What have you learnt from this topic? What is its importance? Why it is necessary to learn this topic? How is it related to your daily life? Students are asked to discuss among themselves with in the group.

For further more clarification student faculty interaction can take place. During discussion faculty should monitor all the groups and identify the students those who are not involved. The Students are asked to draw the mind map with their own imagination and creativity including the real time applications and the relevancy of the topic to the students. The Students are asked to summarize the contents in the form of Bulletins / Tabulation / Pictorial representation. The students are asked to find out the answers for the higher order thinking questions (application, analysis, synthesis and judgment). For higher order questions - refer Annexure III. The Faculty member will show/draw his/her mind map and the summary. The students compare theirs with that of the Faculty member and will note down the omissions in mind map and summary. For faculty mindmap and summary - refer Annexure IV. The Faculty member will use the following modes for assessing the students. Quiz Presentation by the students Match the following Short answers Objective questions/ MCQ Group discussion For MCQ - refer Annexure V. Refer Annexure VI (Applicable only for problematic papers) Problems can be given as homework or assignment.
