4.LIST OF PRACTICALS:

Sr PRACTICAL OUTCOMES (PrOs) CO

No. NO.
1. Write a simple program using PROLOG. 1
2 Write a program to transfer serial data on your thingspeak account using Node 2
MCU

3 Write a program to transfer serial data on your thingspeak account using 2

Raspberry Pi

4 Write a program to transfer data to thingspeak cloud using Interface LM35 2

Temperature sensor to Node MCU8266
5 Use of network reconnaissance tools like WHOIS, dig, traceroute, nslookup to 3
gather information about networks and domain registers
6 Download and install nmap. Use it with different options to scan open ports, 3
perform OS fingerprinting, do a ping scan, tcp port scan, udp port scan, etc.

Note
i. The entire above listed practical’s need to be performed compulsorily, so that the students
reach the `Precision level of Dave’s Psychomotor Domain’.
ii. The 'Process' and 'Product' related skills associated with each PrO are to be assessed
according to a suggested sample given below.

The above PrOs also comprise of the following social skills/attitudes which are Affective Domain
Outcomes (ADOs) that are best developed through the laboratory/field based experiences:
• Work collaboratively in team.
• Follow ethical Practices
The ADOs are not specific to any one PrO, but are embedded in many PrOs. Hence, the acquisition of
the ADOs takes place gradually in the student when s/he undertakes a series of practical experiences
over a period of time. Moreover, the level of achievement of the ADOs according to Krathwohl’s
‘Affective Domain Taxonomy’ should gradually increase as planned below:
• ‘Valuing Level’ in 1st year
• ‘Organization Level’ in 2nd year and
• ‘Characterization Level’ in 3rd year

5. SUGGESTED STUDENT ACTIVITIES

Other than the classroom and laboratory learning, following are the suggested student-related Co-
curricular activities which can be undertaken to accelerate the attainment of the various Outcomes in this
course: Students should conduct following activities following activities in group and prepare reports of
about 5 pages for each activity, also collect/record physical evidences for their (students) portfolio which
will be useful for their placement interviews:
a. Prepare report on suggestive case study of Hacking as given below:
i.) The Aaron Cafferey case-United Kingdom ,2003
http://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.gi?article=1370&context=chtlj
ii) The Julie Amero case-Connecticut,2007
http://dfir.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/julieamerosummary.pdf
iii) The Michael Fiola case-Massachusetts,2008
http://truthinjustice.org/fiola.htm
b. Prepare report on any given case study of IoT..

6. SUGGESTED INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES

These are sample strategies, which the teacher can use to accelerate the attainment of
the various learning outcomes in this course:
a. Massive open online courses (MOOCs) may be used to teach various topics/subtopics.
b. The teacher needs to ensure to create opportunities and provisions for co-curricular Activities.
c. About 10-15% of the topics/sub-topics which is relatively simpler or descriptive in nature is to be
given to the students for self-directed learning and assess the development of the LOs/COs
through classroom presentations (see implementation Guideline for details).
d. Procure various materials required for practical exercises
e. Guide student(s) in undertaking micro-projects.
f. Demonstrate students thoroughly before they start doing the practice.
g. Observe continuously and monitor the performance of students in Lab.

7. SUGGESTED MICRO-PROJECTS.
Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student assigned to him/her in the beginning of
the semester. She/he ought to submit it by the end of the semester to develop the industry oriented COs.
Each micro-project should encompass two or more COs which are in fact, an integration of practicals,
cognitive domain and affective domain LOs.
The microproject could be industry application based, internet-based, workshop-based, laboratory-based
or field-based. Each student will have to maintain dated work diary consisting of individual contribution
in the project work and give a seminar presentation of it before submission. The total duration of the
329
micro-project should not be less than 16 (sixteen) student engagement hours during the course. In the all
semesters, the micro-project could be group-based(4 to 5 students) to build up the skill and confidence in
every student to become problem solver so that she/he contributes to the projects of the industry.
A Suggestive list of micro-projects is given here. Similar micro-projects could be added by the concerned
faculty:
a.IoT Based Humidity and Temperature Monitoring

i. The need of IoT Based Humidity and Temperature Monitoring .

ii. The hardware requirements for designing this system.
