ready to manufacture. In this module student will be able to learn different types of geometrical planes and
their usage. During this module student will be able to understand the concept of orthographic projections,
their types, elements and principles involved. The course trains a student to present 3D visuals on 2D
surfaces.

RFA-222: ENGLISH FOR PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION

Objective of the Course:

To impart basic skills of communication in English through intensive practice to the first year UG
students of engineering so as to enable them to function confidently and effectively in that language
in the professional sphere of their life.

Desired Entry Behaviour:

The student must have some basic command of English that is must be able to:

 Write reasonably grammatically.

 Understand (if not use) at least some 2500 general-purpose worlds of English.
Use some 2000 (at least 1500) general-purpose words of English to express himself in
 writing and 1500 such words to talk about day to day events and experiences of life.

 Understand slowly- delivered spoken material in Standard Indian English, and

Speak reasonably clearly (if not fluently) on routine matters with his fellow students.

Teaching Method:

The topics must be covered essentially through plenty of examples; lecture classes must
be conducted as lecture-cum-tutorial classes.
It is a course that aims to develop skills. It is therefore “practical” in orientation plenty of
exercises of various kinds must be done by the students both inside and outside the
 classroom.

The teacher must not depend on a single or a set of two or three textbooks. He must
 choose his materials from diverse sources.

Keeping in view the requirements of his students, the teacher may have to prepare some
teaching and exercise materials.
For practice in listening, good tape recorders can be used if the more advanced facilities
(for example, language laboratory) are not available. In fact they can be used very
 fruitfully.

 The teacher must function as a creative monitor in the classroom.

Minimum time should be spent in teaching phonetic symbols, stress, information, etc. The
aim should be to enable the student to find out for himself the correct pronunciation of s
word from a learner’s dictionary. In teaching speaking, emphasis

should be on clarity, intelligibility and reasonable fluency rather than no “correct”


pronunciation of words. Classroom presentation and group discussion sessions should be
used to teach speaking.

Some key Concepts:

Communication as sharing; Context of communication; the speaker/writer and the listener! Reader;
medium of communication; barriers to communication; accuracy, brevity, clarity and
appropriateness in communication.

Note: 90 days of working/teaching (including internal assessment)


RFA-251: DESIGN

Objectives

Design is an arrangement of various forms and shapes for a specific purpose in a given space. It establishes
