Project Based Learning: Effective Tool for a Course on Electronic Product Design

The paper discusses an efficient way of implementing Project based learning (PBL) for an engineering course on Electronic Product Design. The course objective is to bridge the gap between a research idea to a product. The active learning pedagogy carried out helps in achieving the higher order educational objectives in Bloom’s taxonomy like analysis, synthesis, evaluation etc. The adopted method also puts forth a point that in some courses summative assessment may not always be the right yard stick.
