The goal of this research is to converting a traditional classroom into an activitybased classroom with the goals of motivating students to attend regularly and fostering the development of technical skills, communication, presentation, and teamwork. The research question Is student’s attendance increased after implementing activity based leaning? Is student’s skills improved? Module wise activity planned before starting of the semester. As per lesson plan time slot is given for each activity.85%. After the module reflection collected from the students to know is students understanding the topic clearly or not. The student’s reflection shows that majority of the students are able to give presentation on stage without any hesitation. After implementation of activity in the module student’s attendance increased but not able to achieve 90 % - 100%.
