GUIDELINES TO STUDENTS:
Dear Students
Firstly I will ask you this – do NOT think of the course just as a course and count of credits to be met.
This course deals with the software development practices which and Embedded Developer has to adopt.
The course if for LEARNING and being able to work in the domains identified here, and not just learning
by rote and reproducing in exam. You need to understand how networking works and design networks,
program for protocols and so on. Be aware on Edhitch, as material will be available there.
COURSE SCHEDULE: (This is a macro level planning. Mention the unit wise expected starting
and ending dates along with the tests/assignments/quiz and any other activities) [allot about 75%
 for delivery, about 10 to 12% for Evaluation Discussion, about 10 to 15% on integrating the
learning Modules within the course and to the program]
