Often, commercial software can require a significant budgetcommitment. At the same time, system configuration and software installation can also require asignificant labor commitment. In many colleges, incorporating laboratory activities into a classnecessitates the dedication of a physical room to a single course section. In many environments,obtaining the necessary budget, labor, and room resources for hands-on lab modules

It does not apply to our student groups since each is randomly assigned and everyone belongs to a group.• Size. Sometimes, we assign group sizes by the resources allocated to the task such as the number of pieces of lab equipment or the number of computers available in a particular classroom. Sometimes we decide on size of group based on the research to be dome and the possibility of each member learning from the exercise. Our task is to teach engineering and ABET’s mandate is to teach engineering to students who will have to operate in a group when they graduate. To accomplish this, we often must juggle the group sizes to

Theoretical Concepts or Theoretical Computer Science(TCS) forms the very basics of the present day CS undergraduate and graduate studies andpractical research. The curriculum is designed to broaden students'perspectives on the role of CSand Mathematics in the modern world, while equipping them with both quantitative andcomputer literacy skills. Mathematics plays an important role in the understanding of howcomputers work, and how they operate. It is to say without any doubt that the basicunderstanding of the mathematics of computers is necessary for any computer scientist.The study of TCS involves grasping the

It can also avoid problems related toselection of consequent teaching material for remedy purposes.
