Implementation Methods for Course KA24201 Semester 2-2021
1. F2F sessions will be replaced by video demonstration methods for all laboratories.
2. Students are required to prepare laboratory reports for each experiment within a group.
3. Please refer to the list given in pages 3 to identify your group members.
4. The raw results of each experiment will be provided to the students.
5. Laboratory reports should be prepared based on the format given
6. Each student is also required to fill in the teamwork assessment form (Google Drive)
and compile it together with the laboratory report upon submission.
7. Laboratory report cover can be referred in Google Drive.
8. Laboratory report submissions must be made before or on the due date as shown in
Table 1 through TURNITIN and GOOGLE CLASSROOM.
9. Lecturer will discuss with students to determine a suitable submission method for each
group.
