Instructions:
1. Home assignments / Tutorials are not required be submitted. Quiz will be conducted
during tutorial session, where students will be asked to solve problem/s (related to
the assignment), in FIRST 05-10 minutes and that will be graded. In the remaining
time of tutorial, tutor will clarify the doubts, if any, on the assignment problems.
2. Attending lectures, tutorials and labs is Mandatory
3. Should bring calculators during lectures, tutorials and labs.
4. Students should bring calculators in the tutorial session to solve the problems.
5. Make-up for mid semester exams may be taken on production of medical certificate. No
make-up will be held for the quizzes missed.
6. Labs will start from the week beginning January 18, 2015 and the tutorials will start
from January 08, 2015. Soft (.pdf) copy of the lab manual will be provided to each
student. However, few hard copies will be available in the lab for ready reference.
7. Each student must complete all the experiments. Make-lab can be used to complete the
missed experiments, only on the production of approved leave from DOAA or
appropriate medical certificate.
8. Each student must come to the lab with individual lab sheet, calculator, graph sheet etc.
Students are required to bring lab sheet with the title of experiment, theory, and
observation table already prepared. All the students must take the signature of the lab
instructors on the readings, before leaving the lab. Each student must submit individual
lab report for evaluation.
9. The student should wear shoes (not the slippers), while performing the experiments.
Before switching on the power supply, the connections must get verified by the lab TAs.
Utmost care should be taken while handling the equipment to avoid any damage or
electrical shock. For safety, try to avoid loose clothing while working with equipment
and motors.

Instructions for TAs/ Student Tutors:

1. TAs / Tutors would also receive the lab manual by email. In case they want a hard copy,
they may contact WLE-313.
2. TA form would be signed by the instructors / tutors of the corresponding section / lab/
tutorial. (Note: For TAs from Mech. Branch, no form needs to be signed. However,
in case TA is not performing the assigned duty, tutors should send an email to the
instructor)
3. All TAs must be in touch with their tutor.
4. Practice lab for the experiment planned in the next week would be scheduled on the
Friday afternoon (1400-1700) just before the week. TAs involved in lab and student
tutors (in case they have not done the lab before) could go to WL313 for the practice lab.
