ACTIVE LEARNING ASSIGNMENTS: Preparation of power-point slides, which include

videos, animations, pictures, graphics for better understanding theory and practical work The
faculty will allocate chapters/ parts of chapters to groups of students so that the entire syllabus to
be covered. The power-point slides should be put up on the web-site of the College/ Institute,
along with the names of the students of the group, the name of the faculty, Department and College
on the first slide. The best three works should submit to GTU.
