Practical work motivates the students, inspires their interest in the course, enhances their understanding about the course, improves the problem analyzing and solving skills, bridge the gap between teachings and understanding the course, concentrate on the fundamentals and its application etc. Various active and cooperative learning methods are practiced in the teaching-learning process to engage students in activity-based or problem-based learning and motivate them to enhance their understanding about the course. In this study, we considered the handout based learning during the laboratory session and titled this activity as HBL (Handout based Learning). We have designed the handouts for the various courses like C-Programming, Digital Technique, System Programming and Mobile Application Development course of Computer and Allied branches. Also we considered the case study of HBL for Mobile Application Development and Digital Technique course. Based on the students' response and feedback for HBL activity, we observed that there is an improvement in the students' problem solving skill and application implementation.Keywords

Open educational resources (OER) are free and openly licensed educational materials. It can be used for teaching, learning, research work and other purposes. OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) defines this OER as "digitised materials offered freely and openly for educators, students, and selflearners to use and reuse for teaching, learning, and research. OER includes learning content, software tools to develop, use, and distribute content, and implementation resources such as open licences."
Types of open educational resources include: full courses, course materials, modules, learning objects, open textbooks, openly licensed videos, tests, software, and other tools, materials etc. OER may be freely and openly available static resources and dynamic resources.
We have developed "Open Education Resource (OER): CProgramming Handout based Lab Session using MOODLE". It consists of C-Programming Lab handouts for First Year Engineering students which contains the useful guidelines for implementing the program problem statements in the lab session. Practise problem statements are given in the each handout. Students practise those problem statements in lab session and submit on the MOODLE for assessment purpose. At the end of each lab session, the quiz will conducted on the MOODLE on the topic covered in the lab session. Since this OER is related to the C-Programming, any faculty or students from any stream can use this OER. We are going to use this OER for the students of First Year Engineering Program for CProgramming course in Semester II.

During the traditional teaching instructor use the quiz, such as multiple choice questions or peer instructions, in which while attempting the quiz students' memorize questions, answers and formulae. With this, students will not get depth knowledge of the concept and will not be able to solve similar kind of problems. We used Open-ended quiz strategy (Madison (1995)) followed by traditional teaching. The open-ended quiz proposed to motivate students' creativity and to guide students to think deeply about the material covered in lectures. The goal of our presented work is to make students think genuinely about the concept. This will assist students to solve problems that do not specify all the information that is needed to arrive at the answer.We have implemented open-ended quiz for Second Year students of Electronics engineering while teaching Analog Communication course. This method helped students to gain conceptual knowledge and increases problem solving and analysing ability.Keywords
