In this modern world students are looking at new method of learning the courses and as well it is very difficult for the instructors/teachers to take attention of students to teach the theory courses. This paper brings a different method of teaching and learning methodology for the machine design course. In this, the tutorial and course project has been linked to the course to develop student's involvement, complex thinking, team management skills, and higher order thinking skills. Here the author would like to share some of the new techniques extracted from the outcome based learning and project based learning approaches to make students and teachers to involve in to the course. Student's feedback and the project did show their involvement in the course.Keywords

Students are more attracted towards and enthusiastic about modern teaching techniques. This paper provides a new concept in the design of a coursework thus enabling the teachers to enhance the teaching and learning process. The course work, laboratory and course projects are linked through proper planning. It is observed that there is an increase in the degree of involvement of the students in the course and they move from doing demonstrations to structured enquiry and also open ended enquiry. This new framework can also address some of the ABET criteria effectively. Results show positive response from the students towards this new technique.Keywords

Students are not passionate enough about conventional teaching techniques because too often, we hear from students that conventional teaching is boring and that they cannot relate to or understand the course that is presented to them each day in class. Rather than feel disheartened, we need to understand that we have before us both a challenge and an opportunity. Project-based learning (PBL) experiences will help us figure out how to make learning come alive for our engineering students. Project-based learning goes beyond generating student interest. Due to these reasons twenty-first century students are moving towards modern learning approaches rather than conventional learning. This paper presents the conceptual analysis of learning approaches involving use of simulation software, robots and solving real-time problems. Learning can be made more fun and interesting through practical application of concepts. Learning by actual implementation of theoretical concepts, provides students good hands-on and makes them ready for the industry.Result analysis show that performance of the students has improved and also quality of course projects is increased. Thus, we can conclude that students are attracted towards the course and also found to improve their learning skills in the context of course project work.Keywords

The development of modern technology in engineering education inspires students to acquire new knowledge and skills to understand the course better. The current teaching is derived from the conventional teaching methods with innovations and advanced technology-enabled techniques. Projectbased learning (PBL) is a technique to solve challenging authentic, curriculum-based, and interdisciplinary problems. The PBL determines the effectiveness of learning for both teachers and students. The Outcome-Based Education system (OBE) is a student-centric teaching and learning methodology in which the course delivery and assessment are planned to achieve stated objectives and outcomes. This paper attempts to develop the course content, delivery, and evaluation through an OBE and validate the Manufacturing Technology laboratory course's effectiveness using a PBL approach.
The experiments and course projects are designed and delivered to design and fabricate a table clamp at the end of the course, demonstrating thorough, indepth knowledge about the course acquired through conduction and practices. Students designed and fabricated the table clamp through the PBL approach, evidenced through the feedback received against the course design and delivery effectiveness. By applying PBL techniques for the Manufacturing Technology laboratory course, students acquired new knowledge, complex problemsolving, communication, and higher-order thinking skills. The whole exercise also enabled the course instructor to achieve program outcomes 3, 4, and 5.

Robots are becoming increasingly important as the world continues to evolve. Robots are needed to achieve higher production rates and competitiveness. Many universities have already started to offer robotics courses in response to the growing demand for automation. However, in a traditional classroom teaching method, students find it challenging to apply pure mathematical algorithms in robotics. The lack of visualization of robot modelling affects the students learning interest. It becomes imperative to introduce simulation software in teaching the fundamental concepts of robotics. This paper presents the application of the RoboAnalyzer tool to teach the robotics course at the undergraduate level. The methodology was adopted to complement the theoretical concepts of robotics. In the present study, we collected feedback from the students about the method. The results show that around 76 % strongly agreed that the RoboAnalyzer tool improved learning efficiency, and 74 % strongly agreed that the combination of conventional teaching and the simulation tool is better than the traditional teaching method. RoboAnalyzer was implemented during the academic year 2019 – 2020 and received a positive response.Keywords
