2. INTRODUCTION:
The average engineer walking out of education institution is surprised by the amount of non-technical work he
or she faces in the real world (by the amount of personal contact, the number of phone calls, meetings, reports
and presentations etc).

Further many cannot find appropriate jobs, because employer‟s complain that students lack these key skills.

This course attempts to provide a slice of that kind of practical training in a form that may be used in a
classroom setting.

This course is NOT a course that is taught to the students in the manner that conventional courses are taught.
In this course the emphasis will shift from teacher – oriented – methods to students – oriented – methods.
While the information – skills acquired by all students will be the same, the actual methods and techniques
used by each student will vary according to his or her initiative, and various other parameters – individual /
group projects allotted, effort put in, enthusiasm shown, discussions held, and so on.

3. OBJECTIVE:
1. Some education researchers in U.S.A. found that 17-year olds, in a single academic year, learn about
200 to 300 new words, in a university environment.

However, during the same period, at their informal home and play environment, they acquire around
4000 words! Strangely enough, learning seems to be higher in an informal environment, than in an
academic one, designed specifically for this purpose. This, they found was because, in an informal
home and play environment, the student‟s learning is self motivated – the student learns because he or
she wants to, and needs to fit-in. The objective of this course is to simulate an informal learning
environment.

2. This course provides an ideal opportunity to acquire skills in learning – to – learn which is very
essential for his professional growth later on.

3. To inculcate information skills into students i.e., to let the students acquire information skills on their
own initiative and drive. These skills would be a life long asset to him or her – in fact they grow with
age.

4. Another main objective of this course is to develop written communication skills in students.

5. Another important objective of this course is to develop oral communication skills in students.
NOTE: Information skill – Awareness of an idea, details of an idea and where to look for.

4. ACTIVITIES:
PART ONE – A: WRITE RESEARCH PAPERS AND ARTICLES:
RESEARCH – Source of Information
a) People
b) Print Media
- News Paper
- Magazines
- Journals
- Vendors Catalogues

c) Electronic Information
- CD-ROM
- The Internet
Usenet Newsgroups
- Connecting to other computers
- The World Wide Web

Student project can be done individually or in groups of not more than five depending on the theme (or main)
subject.

Sample Projects:

1. Research the anti-lock braking system used in cars and describe the principles of its operation.

2. Research the mechanism of Laser Printer and describe the principles of its operation.

3. Research the Control Area Network (CAN) protocol used with cars.
(Ref. for 1, 2 and 3 Mechatronics by W. Bolton)

4. Research the configuration, price and features of a typical 10/100 Mbs Ethernet Network Interface Card
(NIC). Consider features such as media support, transmission distance for a 10/100 BASE-T operation
and driver support.

5. Research the price, size and capabilities of a nominally 24 port 10/100 Mbs Ethernet Hub that is
applicable for use in a medium sized enterprise LAN. Consider features such as transceiver options for
support of different media, autosensing capability, how many units can be stacked and status
monitoring.

6. Research the price and features of some typical print and terminal Ethernet LAN Servers. Consider
features such as the number of ports, memory size and protocols supported.

7. Research the characteristics of some commercially available multimode optical fibers, connectors,
transmitters and receivers for LAN use. Assume LAN data rates are 10 and 100 Mbps and transmission
distance could range upto 500 m.

8. Examine the trade literature to find recent applications of 10-Gigabit Ethernet. Were these applications
for local, metropolitan or wide area networks? What was the purpose of these implementations? Who
was using these systems? Why was 10-Gigabit Ethernet chosen versus another technology?

9. Research the characteristics and functions of atleast two Bluetooth P.C. adapter cards that are
commercially available. Consider parameters such as support of the operating system, device
interfaces, size and power consumption.

10. Research what Internet Service providers are available in your area. Describe some of the features that
an ISP might provide. For example, consider questions such as: What connection options do they
offer? What is the highest connection rate that is available? What equipment do you need to access the
Internet at these speeds?

11. Describe the capabilities of at least two commercially available LAN protocol analysers. Consider
parameters such as data rates that it supports, what protocols it supports, error detection features and
recording options.
12. Compare the LAN – monitoring capabilities of HP Open View, CISCO LAN Management Solution,
Novell Manage Wise. Consider factors such as support of RMON, device-discovery capabilities, report
generation and fault tolerance capabilities.

13. Using web based resources, describe the capabilities of two different commercially available data
encryption devices.

14. Using the web resources or the literature compare the advantages and limitations of at least three
biometric devices for authentication purpose. For example, the technologies might be based on
fingerprints, palm prints, retinal patterns or voice recognition.
