Instruction Plans

Instructions
Instruction plans for multi-section courses will be formulated by Course Planners appointed by the HoD-F. For
single section courses, the prospective instructors should be the course planners as far as possible.
The format of the Instruction plans has been prescribed. It is the responsibility of the Course planner to develop all
homework and teaching aids, including the demonstration kits, and arrange for their procurement and distribution
1. Each IP will be a separate .doc file named IPXXXXXX.doc where XXXXXX is the alphanumeric code of the
course without any blank or hyphen.
2. As far as possible only one textbook will be prescribed. Additional books will be prescribed only where
absolutely essential.
3. Specify only specifically useful web pages. Give complete address and the salient feature of that.
4. Plan for 13×L lectures: 7×L for before the MTE, 6×L for after the MTE. Provide for at least 2×L spill-over
lecture.
5. Each half of the plan should be divided into two halves each.
6. Mark the location of the MTE after 7*L lectures.
7. While planning homework, follow the scheduling guidelines given below.
8. At least 6 clear days should be given for students to complete a homework.
9. Nature of homework refers to if it is an individual or group homework, if it is common to all students or not.
10. Copies of the Instruction plans will be made available to all instructors (through the HoD-Ss) as soon as the
load allotment is made.
11. Every instructor will complete the due reports within the specified time and submit them to HoD-S who, in turn,
will forward them to HoD-F.
12. Wherever there is no HoD-F, the responsibility mentioned in the following pages passes on to HoF
13. Wherever there is no HoD-S, the responsibility mentioned in the following pages passes on to HoS
Scheduling Guidelines for Homework, Tests, Quizzes, Etc.

Note : For the current term, the first week is counted from August 31, 2009
(a) Homework category (a) : (particularly, non-quantitative courses in LFBA), the Homework is evaluative. In such
courses, full evaluations must be made with appropriate feedback to students .

Homework category (b) : there are two components of this type of homework : one is the evaluation of the
submitted work, and the other is the evaluating the student on the basis of a test based on homework.
