Instructional Method:
a. The course delivery method will depend upon the requirement of content and need of
students. The teacher in addition to conventional teaching method by black board, may
also use any of tools such as demonstration, role play, Quiz, brainstorming, case studies
etc.
b. The internal evaluation will be done on the basis of continuous evaluation of students in
the class-room.
c. Practical examination will be conducted at the end of semester for evaluation of
performance of students in classroom.
d. Students will use supplementary resources such as online videos
