Mode of Delivery
This course will be delivered remotely which means that there will be a combination of generally
asynchronous (on- demand but time bound tasks UNC LMS, Facebook Messenger) and strategically planned
synchronous sessions (live online meetings thru ZOOM/Google Meet).
For flexi-kit users, you can submit your outputs to the College of Arts and Sciences department for
me to pick-up or you can submit your outputs directly to my email address.
The College of Arts and Sciences uses the Blackboard as a learning management system. This means
that all instructions, study guides, learning materials, discussion forums, and assignment submissions will be
done through the said platform. All course announcements or updates will be posted in the Blackboard, so
please check our course site regularly.

A regular once a week synchronous session with you, mainly for consultations, clarifications, and
monitoring purposes will be conducted. This will be conducted via Zoom/Google Meet following the schedule

In a face-to-face mode of delivery, we meet during class hours at an assigned room. That has changed
in a remote set up. Instead of meeting every week at a pre-assigned time and place, a large portion of your
work will involve independent study tasks. This means you will need to pace yourself, direct your own
learning experience, be disciplined in managing your time, and target to complete assignments on or before
the due date.
Every week, I designed a Study Guide which provides details on how you should engage with the core
topic and whether this will be supported by a live meeting via Zoom. The lesson/topic for each week is
designed following the UNC outcome-based education delivery format. You must view these study guides at
the start of the week to give you clarity of what lies ahead and what is expected of you during the week.

SUGGESTED CONTEXTUALIZED READINGS FOR ENGINEERING
Themes:
Note: I prepared for the mixed programs for CE, EE, ECE and ME.
I decided to focus on Indian Literature for the contextualized reading for engineering since
India has a significant contribution to the field of engineering in general. The students will
also include the 8 literary periods in the study guides giving attention to Indian Literature.
The discussion will include the Indian contribution to science and literature, educational
system and about life as well.
At the end of the semester, the students will be able to:
1. Learn and get an overview on Indian contribution to the world in the field of science and
literature, and to know the concept of Indian education system;
2. Aware of the important concepts of Vedas and their relevance to daily life.
3. Familiarize themselves with the inspirational characters from the story or literary texts.
