Spiral Course Activity to Strengthen Process Automation

The proposal describes about a course activity designed for fifth semester students of Instrumentation Technology for the course Process Instrumentation. The quantifiable short term outcome of the acitivity is to propose a sensor model with new operating principle. Student undergoes phases of field exercise, lab experimentation, literature survey that helps in proposing a sensor model. Course activity has been designed to address exploratory learning, better communication skills and industrial perspective of the course. Thus strengthening Process Automation vertical at program level. This progress justification can be made by mapping the rubrics formed for the evaluation of activity with the attainment of program outcomes.
