 List of Documents to be prepared for Submission:

• Detail report duly signed and approved by the internal/external mentor/guide.

• Presentation regarding software project approved by the internal/external mentor/guide.
Poster regarding software project approved by the internal/external mentor/guide.

Common Note:
1) For Projects / Seminar etc. Evaluation is based on work done, quality of report, performance in viva-voce,
presentation etc. The internal / external assessment is based on the student’s performance in viva-voce /work
record respectively.
6. AFFECTIVE DOMAIN OUTCOMES
The following affective Domain Outcomes (ADOs) are embedded in many of the above mentioned COs.
More could be added to fulfill the development of this course competency.
a) Work as a leader/a team member as role of Engineer.
b) Practice environment friendly methods and processes.
c) Follow safety precautions and ethical practices.

7. SUGGESTED STUDENT ACTIVITIES

Following are the suggested student-related curricular, co-curricular activities which can be
undertaken to accelerate the attainment of the various outcomes in this course: Students should
perform following activities and prepare reports and give presentation in front of students and
faculty members. They should also collect/record physical evidences for their (student’s) portfolio
which may be useful for their placement interviews:
a) Perform various tasks given by industry resources person during software development in IDP projects.
b) Perform various task required to complete software development work under guidance of institute faculty
member in UDP projects.
c) Students are required to give a presentation before review committee consisting of a group of academic
staff members.
d) At the end of the software development make a poster presentation of the work carried out. The poster
presentation is open to the public. It is also evaluated by faculty members.
8. SOFTWARE / LEARNING WEBSITES
A software development is a short term work program usually offered to students by companies and
institutes who require staff for assistance at junior levels. Thus for the students undergoing software
development work are get a professional learning experience is provided to benefit them in their skills
as well as career. It will brush existing skills and provide exposure to new skills.
