EC-938: Seminar Course Design
Course Objectives: To train the M.Tech students in the Art & Science of teaching,
assessment and evaluation so that after Post-Graduation they can be effective and good
teachers. The course also gives opportunity to the students to explore various new paradigms
of pedagogy and integrate them in their course delivery for effective and dynamic transfer of
knowledge that they will be called upon to do as a teacher. Further, the course provides for
the content exploration on the web to enrich their own knowledge in the most recent topics
and areas of enquiry which can open the possibility of conducting research and creating new
knowledge in the chosen area.
Course Learning Outcomes:
1. The student after completing the course should be able to create course content on the
assigned topics.
2. Develop perspective on how to arrange, organize and deliver the knowledge that he/
she collects from the various sources like books, web sources and also from journals
etc. related to the topic.
3. The student should also be able to understand the difference between plagiarism and
actual content development by knowledge mining from the available resources.
4. The student shall understand what are the different pedagogical techniques and how to
apply them and for which conditions.
5. The students shall also learn how to assess and evaluate the course delivery, the
content creation and the learning attributes by actually participating in the peer
evaluation process in every part of these activities individually and in groups.
6. The student shall be able to translate his / her learning into group learning by this
course which shall be also evaluated by the mentoring teacher who is the course
Instructor.
Course Title and Syllabus: The subject matter to be allotted for this course must not be
same or similar to any course or its syllabus already being taught to the candidates, but must
be on new topics which are the latest in their area of specialization. In order to ensure that the
same topic is given to every student going through the M. Tech. program in different
Colleges/Institutes for that specialization the different teachers from that specialization shall
propose the course with content to the University one semester in advance and then the
University through its BOS in that area shall select the course title for ensuing academic
session. This selected course will then be announced by the University for that academic
session and the same shall be followed by all the colleges offering M. Tech. in that
specialization.
The course title shall not be repeated in the next year, but the same process shall be repeated
to select a new course title and content for the succeeding year.
Course Distribution & Evaluation: The course shall have V Units as in any other course of
the University and the M. Tech. batch of students shall be divided into a number of groups
depending upon the strength of the class and each Unit allotted one Unit of the course as per
the group choice. Every member of the group can then select the portion that he/ she would
like to deliver lectures on. Normally every student shall have to deliver 2 lectures on the topic
of his / her selection and the same may be done in one slot or in a round robin manner
depending upon the direction of the faculty member of the course or as defined in the course.
