The syllabi for engineering graduates a decade ago was completely academic but now there is a scope for more real time analysis, which makes the students, be industry ready. This is more beneficial as it will require less training period for the students, when they are absorbed in their respective industry. Therefore, the internship programme has been included in the curriculum of most of the universities and being a credit course, it allows more students to participate. In addition, if the interns score credits for the same, the method of evaluation and assessment tools needs proper design. Our Textbook Companion Internship was offered online during the outburst of pandemic (COVID-19).The main objectives of this internship is to provide an integrated learning experience, i.e., integration of theoretical knowledge and software tools (Simulation based study) i.e. essential to b...

It helps the students to attain the practical and industry specific knowledge in their gradual learning process. Innovative ways of teaching are required from foundation year of engineering curriculum so that the students can co-relate the laboratory experiments with dayto-day life and can be motivated towards research-based thought process. This case study discusses about the innovative changes in teaching methodology from theorybased laboratory experiments to next generation application-based laboratory experiments which connects students with day to day life. This research primarily deals with changes in laboratory setup, teaching methodologies and laboratory experiments and its impact on course outcome of engineering students. The feedback of students show encouraging results in improving course out comes with the help of innovative teaching methodologies.
