The Department of Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering conducted two National level Quiz on Outcome Based Education (OBE) and Communication Engineering during the lockdown.
National Level Quiz on Outcome Based Education (OBE): The main aim of the National level quiz on OBE was to sensitize the Engineering faculty about Outcome-Based Education. “Outcome-Based Education” (OBE) model has increasingly being adopted at Engineering colleges in India. It is considered as a giant leap forward to improve the technical education in India and help Indian Engineers compete with their global counterparts. The traditional education system is losing its relevance in the era of globalization,. In the present world, everything changes very rapidly and continuously. More skills are required to work with rapidly changing technologies. The educational institutions should nurture the graduates as per technological trends. Thus, it is necessary to shift from the traditional education system to Outcome-Based Education (OBE).
The Google quiz comprising of 15 Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) was conducted from 13th June to 20th June 2020. The registration and certification were free of cost. All the participants scoring more than 60% score, received E-certificate. More than 240 faculty participated in the quiz and Prof. Rashmi R. Kulkarni (Assistant Professor, E&TC Engineering Department) coordinated it.
2) National level quiz on Communication Engineering
The primary objective of the National Quiz on Computer Engineering was to evaluate the knowledge in the field of Basic Communication, Mobile Communication, Satellite Communication, Optical communication, etc. The Google quiz of 15 Multiple Choice Questions was conducted from 23rd June 2020 to 2nd July 2020. The registration and certification were free of cost. All the participants scoring more than 40% received the E-certificate. The participants included students, faculty members, alumni, and industry professionals.
Prof. V. D. Chavan (Assistant Professor, E&TC Department) and Prof. M. S. Kolwankar (Assistant Professor, E&TC Engineering Department) coordinated the quiz.
These online quizzes were planned and executed with the motivation and under the guidance of Dr. S. V. Chougule, (HoD, E&TC Engineering Department.
