Practical work motivates the students, inspires their interest in the course, enhances their understanding about the course, improves the problem analyzing and solving skills, bridge the gap between teachings and understanding the course, concentrate on the fundamentals and its application etc. Various active and cooperative learning methods are practiced in the teaching-learning process to engage students in activity-based or problem-based learning and motivate them to enhance their understanding about the course. In this study, we considered the handout based learning during the laboratory session and titled this activity as HBL (Handout based Learning). We have designed the handouts for the various courses like C-Programming, Digital Technique, System Programming and Mobile Application Development course of Computer and Allied branches. Also we considered the case study of HBL for Mobile Application Development and Digital Technique course. Based on the students' response and feedback for HBL activity, we observed that there is an improvement in the students' problem solving skill and application implementation.

Abstract


Practical work motivates the students, inspires their interest in the course, enhances their understanding about the course, improves the problem analyzing and solving skills, bridge the gap between teachings and understanding the course, concentrate on the fundamentals and its application etc. Various active and cooperative learning methods are practiced in the teaching-learning process to engage students in activity-based or problem-based learning and motivate them to enhance their understanding about the course. In this study, we considered the handout based learning during the laboratory session and titled this activity as HBL (Handout based Learning). We have designed the handouts for the various courses like C-Programming, Digital Technique, System Programming and Mobile Application Development course of Computer and Allied branches. Also we considered the case study of HBL for Mobile Application Development and Digital Technique course. Based on the students' response and feedback for HBL activity, we observed that there is an improvement in the students' problem solving skill and application implementation.
