EC-938: Seminar Course Design

Course Objectives: To train the M.Tech students in the Art & Science of teaching, assessment and evaluation so that after Post-Graduation they can be effective and good teachers. The course also gives opportunity to the students to explore various new paradigms of pedagogy and integrate them in their course delivery for effective and dynamic transfer of knowledge that they will be called upon to do as a teacher. Further, the course provides for the content exploration on the web to enrich their own knowledge in the most recent topics and areas of enquiry which can open the possibility of conducting research and creating new knowledge in the chosen area. Course Learning Outcomes: 1. The student after completing the course should be able to create course content on the assigned topics. 2. Develop perspective on how to arrange, organize and deliver the knowledge that he/ she collects from the various sources like books, web sources and also from journals etc. related to the topic. 3. The student should also be able to understand the difference between plagiarism and actual content development by knowledge mining from the available resources. 4. The student shall understand what are the different pedagogical techniques and how to apply them and for which conditions. 5. The students shall also learn how to assess and evaluate the course delivery, the content creation and the learning attributes by actually participating in the peer evaluation process in every part of these activities individually and in groups. 6. The student shall be able to translate his / her learning into group learning by this course which shall be also evaluated by the mentoring teacher who is the course Instructor. Course Title and Syllabus: The subject matter to be allotted for this course must not be same or similar to any course or its syllabus already being taught to the candidates, but must be on new topics which are the latest in their area of specialization. In order to ensure that the same topic is given to every student going through the M. Tech. program in different Colleges/Institutes for that specialization the different teachers from that specialization shall propose the course with content to the University one semester in advance and then the University through its BOS in that area shall select the course title for ensuing academic session. This selected course will then be announced by the University for that academic session and the same shall be followed by all the colleges offering M. Tech. in that specialization. The course title shall not be repeated in the next year, but the same process shall be repeated to select a new course title and content for the succeeding year. Course Distribution & Evaluation: The course shall have V Units as in any other course of the University and the M. Tech. batch of students shall be divided into a number of groups depending upon the strength of the class and each Unit allotted one Unit of the course as per

the group choice. Every member of the group can then select the portion that he/ she would like to deliver lectures on. Normally every student shall have to deliver 2 lectures on the topic of his / her selection and the same may be done in one slot or in a round robin manner depending upon the direction of the faculty member of the course or as defined in the course.
