Implementation of Active Learning Methodology for Engineering Education

Abstract

Engineering is the action of working artfully to bring something about, it is very crucial to know the actual practical application of the concepts rather than the traditional bookish knowledge. As we can see a rapid and magnificent growth in the field of technology in the present generation, every student must imbibe complete practical knowledge in order to cope up with the competition in the world. Taking all the drawbacks of classroom learning into account and its negative effects like dearth of practical implementation of concepts, this research completely focuses on the active learning methods which involves the involvement and participation of every student in studying and make expertise the concepts. Keeping all this in mind, this research goes against the present traditional teachinglearning environment and completely supports outcome based education with the concept of integration of practical and classroom learning. This paper focuses on the implementation of Practical and classroom Integrated Learning (PCIL) in the course of Microprocessors and Microcontrollers (MPMC). The implementation is discussed with the case study results.
