4. Activity based Learning
1. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) based Teaching-Learning: - ICT enabled tools and resources are used to communicate, disseminate, store and manage information. It provides direct access to quality instructional resources through computers connected in LAN and Internet. The smart board available in classrooms facilitate faculty members to display visually content-rich presentations using Power Point (PPT) and videos.
1. ICT based Teaching-Learning
Goal
Enhance student engagement and participation by providing a variety of video lectures
Activity
1. YouTube videos: Videos on solutions of previous public service commission questions papers are prepared by faculty and made available especially for passing out students to assist them in cracking government sector jobs. The name of the video series is ElectrAspirant. Apart from ElectrAspirant, video lectures of certain topics in selected courses were prepared by the course faculty and have the same content as the classroom lectures, but are delivered at a slower, more step-by-step pace. Video lectures give students control of the lecture and are portable. Students can replay segments and stop the lecture as they study to understand the content. They can skip topic segments they understand. In effect, they can adjust the instructor's delivery speed and topic selection to match their individual learning pace, especially beneficial to the weak students.

1. ICT based Teaching-Learning
Goal
Promote personalized and self-directed learning by providing students with access to a variety of digital resources
Activity
Google classroom: The course faculty creates the online classroom in Google classroom. Students join as members of the Google classroom. Lecture materials, Assignments, Quiz questions are posted in the Google classroom. Samples of the Google Classroom created for the courses are given below:

2. Simulation based Teaching-Learning Methods: - Learning through simulation software helps the students to get an idea of the output parameters of a particular circuit before creating the hardware. This helps them to select the best possible design and component rating to create the hardware.
1. Simulation based Teaching-Learning
Goal
To provide skills to develop simulation models solar PV systems.
Activity
Value added training programme on Solar: Fundamentals to Design is conducted for 2021-2025 batch with the following course outcomes.
1. Develop model in MATLAB and characterize the solar PV cell and module
2. Develop and validate maximum power point tracking algorithms in MATLAB
3. Design solar PV system based on the design requirements.
1. Simulation based Teaching-Learning
Goal
To help students develop troubleshooting skills by providing them with a virtual environment in which they can practice diagnosing and solving different inverter configurations.
Activity
Advanced Inverter Paradigms was conducted for the students of S8 EEE (2019-23 batch) during the AY 2022-23. In this learning method, the students were provided a hands-on simulation training in MATLAB on Inverters (depicted in Fig 5.5.8) to help students enhance their understanding of various inverter configurations.
The students were also provided with sessions on the design and assembly of the inverter as well.
3. Flipped Classroom Learning: - Flipped Classroom Learning is a pedagogical approach in which the conventional notion of classroom-based learning is inverted, students are provided with the learning material prior to face-to-face classes, and classroom time is then being used effectively to discuss and deepen conceptual understanding.
1. Flipped classroom
Goal
The objective of this activity is to engage students in independent learning.
Activity
The flipped classroom enhance class engagement by using class time for interactive activities, discussions, and problem-solving. This allows students to collaborate with their peers and the teacher, ask questions, and receive immediate feedback, leading to a deeper understanding of the material. Few students of S6 EEE (2020-24 batch) are allotted a topic of the syllabus to conduct the flipped classroom. In flipped classroom the student takes the class after prior preparation. The course faculty helps the student in the preparation of the topic. An open discussion is also carried out after the session of the student for further clarification of the topic.
4. Activity based Learning: - It aims to encourage the students to go through the action-oriented learning processes such as project-based learning, hands-on trainings, etc.
1. Value added training session - Installation and Repair of Domestic Electrical Appliances
Goal
To outline the basic
safety practices to
be followed while
repairing
appliances.
• To identify the fault
in domestic
electrical
appliances.
• To carry out repair
and maintenance of
electrical
appliances and
install certain
appliances.
Activity
The students are given basic Value added training session on soldering, repair of domestic electrical appliances (iron box, mixer grinder and fan) and the installation of water pump & fluorescent tube light.
1. Hands-on training - Fan motor rewinding
Goal
To diagnose fan motor problems and demonstrate an understanding of the principles and techniques involved in rewinding a fan motor
To repair and test fan motors to ensure they are functioning properly.
Activity
By the end of the course, students gained the skills and knowledge to repair and rewind fan motors, and are able to work in the field of fan motor repair and maintenance.
1. Case study based training – Energy Management (Residential sector)
Goal
To equip them with energy saving opportunities in residential sector.
Activity
