Software Engineering is the foundation for professional processes to be followed involving

principles, techniques, and practices for software development. The course provides a framework
for software professionals for building quality assured software products. It enables students to
blend the domain specific knowledge with the programming skills to create quality software
products.
 2. COURSE OUTCOMES (COs):
At the end of this course, student will be able to: -
1. Select suitable Software Process model for software development.
2. Prepare software requirement specifications.
3. Use Software modeling to create data designs.
4. Estimate size and cost of software product.
5. Use project scheduling techniques, tracking methods and reengineering principles in software
development.
6. Apply software quality assurance in software development.

5. SUGGESTED STUDENT SELF LEARNING ACTIVITIES:

Other than the classroom and laboratory learning, following are the suggested student-related co-
curricular activities which can be undertaken to accelerate the attainment of the various outcomes
in this course: Students should conduct at least 01 group activity and 01 individual activities (to
be distributed throughout the term). For the following suggested activities prepare reports of
about 5 pages for each activity, also collect/record physical evidences for student's portfolio
which will be useful for their placement interviews:
a. Students should prepare report on any micro activity related to course on different units
as per the guidance of course teacher.
b. Prepare assignments on different units as per the guidance of course teacher
c. Prepare lab manual based on practical performed in laboratory.
d. Give seminar on relevant topic.
e. Library/E-Book survey regarding related course and prepare assignments on it for the
course.
f. Prepare power point presentation or animation for
demonstrating emerging activities/technology in the course.
g. Visit to institute/industry and prepare report.
h. Develop learning materials, models, charts related to topic, course.
i. Develop applications/ activities related to course which may be useful to society.
j. Learning through various online platforms such as SWAYAM, Infosys Springboard,
Spokentutorials etc. related to course.

6. SUGGESTED INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES

These are sample strategies, which the teacher can use to accelerate (if required), the
attainment of the various outcomes in this course:
a. About 10-15% of the topics/sub-topics which is relatively simpler or descriptive in
nature is to be given to the students for self-directed learning and assess
the attainment of COs through classroom presentations.
 b. Use the proper equivalent analogy to explain different concepts.
c. Use simulators/Animation/Online Videos/Field Visits/ Expert Lectures for the
understanding of concept.
