It allows students to professionally present their understanding of the topic before the people for suggestions and review. | Network Security |
| 6 | Open Book Test | In this open book test, students were asked to bring a reference book during the CA component and to prepare a question paper with 10 MCQs on the assigned topic. Then randomly exchanged pieces amongst themselves and were asked to solve. | To be aware of how Questions and multiple choices options can be prepared from any topic, where multiple-choice has only one correct answer but other options also have slight differences in the right option. This activity motivated students to understand any concept with deep evaluation. | Fundamentals of Data Structure |
| 7 | Buddy Session | In this activity, first, the students were asked to attend the online MOOC course for at least 5 hours; then, they were given small topics to teach to their peers in 10 to 15 minutes. | This activity motivates students for lifelong learning through the self-learning process. Students found the evaluation process exciting, and they enjoyed the task. | Operating Systems, Data Structures |
| 8 | Live case study (Industry Based Projects) | Industry-Related projects are assigned to a group of students and monitored/evaluated with the help of industry experts. | The case studies implemented as projects are presented in the TIAA hackathon. Students got the opportunity for summer and semester internships and won prizes in hackathons. | Web and Mobile Application Development |
| 9 | Muddiest Point | In this technique, students are asked to take some time to solve the confusing concepts from the lesson. This is a simple technique to resolve the confusion. | This activity helps students clarify in which they are simply finding confusion. This technique motivates the students to use their analytical skills to learn the concept. | Programming Paradigms |
| 10 | Translational Research | We use research tools among students like Posters, Latex Overleaf, Google Scholar, and Scopus. | Presentation, case study, Project Exhibition, state-of-the-art methods used in innovations, Research paper including literature review of the latest articles from reputed Journals/Conferences | B.Tech Project |
| 11 | Technical assessment through a competitive coding platform | This evaluation was taken by assigning challenging, average, and manageable levels of SQL statements on the HackerRank platform. This platform has in-built databases, and students can directly brainstorm on solving given queries. | The students learned to practice online with the help of this platform and understood concepts and applications. | Database Management Systems Lab |
| 12 | Storytelling | In the innovative way of storytelling, students have to work with a dataset and assign problems. Based on the given dataset and problem statement, students must identify and present various AIML algorithms. It helps to understand how the customers are retained and access the internet service by using the statistical data analysis of customers associated with the Telecom industry. | Students could understand and apply basic engineering knowledge to solve the data analysis problem. | Data Science |
