This session was set up as a panel discussion with apanelist addressing each of the five topics listed in Table 2. Students were required to submit inwriting two-three questions in advance of the session and there were also provisions to submitquestions at the session. After the formal portion of the presentation, a lively Q&A sessionensued.Both sessions were held in the evening to avoid conflicts with students’ class schedules andattendance was very strongly encouraged.

These online resources were organised through an in-house developed “Learning Pathway” tool that provided links to what students needed toknow and what they needed to do. The Learning Pathway tool organised and presented thisinformation on a weekly basis. The results of these improvements are apparent in Figure 4but more is needed to communicate the rationale in ways that make sense to students (seediscussion below).Observation of student learning activities revealed many unexpected insights into whatstudents need to learn and how they go about learning it, from the group in the workshop whocould not

at which coal is converted into electricity, and has the units of BTU/kWhr. A pound ofcoal has a certain amount of heating value, HHV, which varies from 4000-15000 BTU/lbdepending on its quality and carbon content. The quantity of coal burned in the unit, Coal, resultsin a heat energy input, Q, given in equation (6). This is divided by the electrical energygenerated, which is the work done by the generator, W. Lower values of heat rate are better asthis indicates less coal necessary (less heat energy input) for a given amount of electrical energyoutput. Typical values for heat rate vary from the very good of around 9000 BTU/kWhr (38%efficient), to poor of around 11000 BTU/kWhr (31% efficient). Both BTU and kWhr are units ofenergy. To convert

The university devises the course content or activities, whichprovide the learning experience to the students to achieve the intended courseoutcomes. Assessments are carried out at various stages and students who reached thepre-defined standards become graduates. They then go back to the constituencies andserve the community. Now the evaluation starts in a big way.
