 I just finished my exam here. I did cloud computing through NPTEL. It was a very nice course. It was video based lectures and it was very nice. Hi, I am Anusha. I study New Horizons College of Engineering. We both are from computer science department. We took up cloud computing program. Initially we felt 8 weeks program is very elaborate. But as time passed it was more of descriptive type. But we learnt a lot of things in this. All the doubts were cleared. We could get the answers even before we could ask questions. So it was clear. It was on time. On time. In college we don't get cloud computing. This is the recent technology. In college it's all old things. We used to watch one video per day. So that was 7 videos. So in a week every day we used to watch one video. And we used to answer the assignment on time. So that helped us a lot. It was self-explanatory. And it was easy also because of the video based lectures. Plus there was a forum for us. And there was lecture notes as well. There was a written lecture notes. It will be very helpful in job placements and interviews. It will be helpful in future for anything. And if you are going to research also this will be helpful in a way. It was easily located. It was easily because we are from Bangalore and we got Bangalore service. Santosh. Subject name is Fundamentals of Manufacturing Processes. Online course. We normally deal with the theoretical concepts there. Descriptive questions we normally answer in the college syllabus. Here multiple choice questions are there. And it is good to answer the multiple choice questions. Where the problems are also involved. We visited NPTEL website for different videos of the course instructor. We are a faculty of particular college. We are going to share this information to our students. So that they also can update their knowledge. Improvement is needed like if they introduce the subjects which are most recent to the industrial prospect. It will be better for the candidates who appear for the exam. It is quite reachable. All the facilities are good? All the facilities are good. No issue. Any other feedback? That's it from our end. Thank you. Myself Ampuni had taken a subject on Fundamentals of Manufacturing. So it was really helpful and the online exam was very good. For the 12 weeks video I have watched it thoroughly and it was really helpful in writing the online exam. Some of the questions about 40 marks was there from the assignment itself. So that was really helpful. Basically this certificate will be good for our college for updating our knowledge as well as sharing among the students also. Many from our college have registered for the same course. So many of them have taken up the exam also. The improvement in the sense the video lectures was very good. I would request the instructor to provide more PPTs regarding the same. PPTs were there but it would be good if the PPTs were in depth. My name is Abhinash and I am from RV College of Engineering. I took online course. It was pretty nice. Most of the questions were from the course only, not apart from the course. Yeah, few questions were there but most of the questions were from the PPT. So we had to study from the PPT. It was quite helpful. A lot of faculty suggested us to take this course and they did help us for the course. Certificate, this was for my knowledge purpose only. Generally in colleges they teach about theoretical ergonomics. But in this course we were taught about applied ergonomics. How do we apply it into the industry? So that was a useful experience. I would suggest that the teaching assistant should answer the questions frequently because many students will have doubts. So what I observed in ergonomics courses, they weren't answering the questions very frequently. And apart from that, like from NPTL, I have been using from 2014. So I have seen the gradual increase in the quality. So it's quite commendable how much effort they are putting. Is the center quite accessible? Yeah, this center is quite accessible. My name is Sahana B.S. from Siramishweshwarya Institute of Technology. Yeah, it was pretty good, easy. Oh, college learning. The exam we took was IoT basically and this is definitely apart from academics. So college, obviously this is not covered as a part of academics. So doing this course in NPTL is really useful, definitely. No, no, no, we did it on our own. My friend was doing NPTL courses from the beginning. So through her, definitely in the resume, we can do, you know, it will be a good quality, a good weight in the resume. It's so good. Yeah, we have a good forum, discussion forum is there. We can ask questions and it's pretty accessible. It's good. My name is Nagabushan. Your exam is online or what? Yeah, it is online. How was the exam? It was very nice, good. So I'm working in New Arizona College of Engineering. So in our college, they are interested to go with the NPTL courses, online courses. And then I felt it's very good for our enrichment of knowledge with respect to the subject. So this time I have taken two, so I've written one exam, no? So I need to take one more. So it's very good. And then whatever the online presentations which I got it, it was very helpful. And then even the assignment questions also, it was guided us how the exam pattern will be and then how we need to prepare for the exams. So internet, overall it's very good experience for us. So myself, Surya Begum from New Arizona College of Engineering, CSC department. It's online. Yeah, it was quite good. A few videos I did not watch, but I have gone to the material, whatever they have given it was helpful. A few questions were there. A few questions from assignment in the portal in August. Yeah, what I felt is not only myself and few students, some answers were given wrong. So we have sent the query. They said that they are going to revert back. So little, you know, the response should be quick. Otherwise it is good. Hello myself. Myself, I'm Akhil. I took analog communication course. It was prescribed from our college. I'm from Brahma Institute of Technology. So this course was related to our academics and this was part of our syllabus marking system. So we were prescribed to all of us to take this course and it was really helpful. And it was related to the classroom teaching and we learned a few new things from this. And all the syllabus is almost 70 to 80 percent is same. It was really helpful. Sometimes they were a bit easy, you know. Exam, yes, it was pretty simple. And I found like one or two errors in the questions, you know, options. So I think there's a mistake in that. I think it will help me in building my resume. Myself, I'm an engineering graduate. So I've taken a few courses on economics. So I plan to do an MBA later. I think it will really help me, you know, build my resume, you know, to give some strong points in my interview to show my interest. So it really helps to study other disciplines. So it's a nice opportunity. My course was manufacturing technology systems one and two. Mechanical related subjects. So that's why I took it. Subject was kind of okay. It is more towards production related. It was my first time. So I took a comparatively easy subject. I had a few doubts which I put it in the forum and we had some technical issues because some of the queries which I had were not getting posted. And assignment point of view also, twice I submitted an assignment and those two did not even get approved. I don't know why. But it showed your assignment has been submitted and in that progress list you just, I had that issue. I had put a quote about that on that forum. The reason why I took it is because it has good value in HL and all. I'm really interested in R&D related place. So if we can get that and do good. Modern digital communication. Mind, a picture, online. It was good but the numericals were not solved in it. Like only theory part was given in it. Assignments were good but once when I submitted it it didn't get uploaded. It showed it was not attempted. There are no solutions for the assignments. Like only the option comes. They don't solve it and give. We need steps for the numericals to understand. Placements. My name is Radhika Aghal. I'm from R&SIT college. I'm doing my BE in computer science and the course that I had taken for this online course was privacy and security in social media. Yeah, I'm Shweta. I'm also doing my third semester in BE computer science and my course had taken was privacy and security in online social media and it was an online course. The quality and the quantity of the content of the course was very good and we were very satisfied with all the video lectures. Yeah, we used to ask a few doubts whenever we had. Any queries regarding the subject or regarding the procedure or organization with the exams were answered in proper time and the access to all these materials, the transcripts, there were slides and there were videos and all this was from a proper menu from one website. So we didn't have to go and search for everything. Everything was one place. I took this course out of interest in cybersecurity and online social media security and privacy concerns which is like a good topic right now. So I will try to, because I know the basics now because of this course, I'll try to expand my knowledge because you need basics to start anything. I actually took this course because initially I didn't really have an idea about whatever we have learnt in this course. So now I have a faint idea about all the things that are a part of this course and I'm really interested in studying further in the course so I will use this basic knowledge and use it in the future. The course had many side courses. We had Python, we worked on Python, we had a proper little insight into JSON so if we want to continue in such fields we know the basics now. We won't be completely lost. We have an idea. Facilities is fine but because we live far away from here it was a bit of a problem. Otherwise the MBA and all the examination centre was all very good. Because it was a Sunday, the commute is easier. There was not much traffic so that is fine. But yeah, it was all fine. Hello, my name is Anand Abhishek and I wrote a paper, Integrative Waste Management for Smart Cities. The paper was quite good. It was moderate. It was not too tough and not too easy. Questions came from generally assignments and what was taught in lessons, in videos and all the things. And I think these certificates will be very beneficial to join some industry. Like I am from civil background so for me construction, development, construction and other business and other industries will be taking my certificates and it will be boosting my career. Actually I wrote two papers and the first paper was not too good because the way of teaching of the professor was not that. Second paper, the assignment and the notes given by the faculty was too good. So I think all the faculties give notes so students will be getting more benefit from that. Yeah, I am Dr Rajeshwara KVS from Arvik College of Engineering and I have been working as associate professor in the department of industrial engineering and management for the past 18 years. So the subject I have chosen is sustainability through green manufacturing systems and applied approach and it was offered by IIT Kanpur and I have chosen the online exam mode and as far as the examination is concerned the pattern is very much, you know, I can say it's an average wherein it creates a kind of interest among all kind of people who have taken the exam and at the end of the examination they can come out with confidence because having attempted especially the single mark questions and two mark questions perfectly they will be feeling confident and would also create a kind of motivation for them to take up further courses provided by NPTEL. Yeah, definitely I have listened to all the courses and I have listened especially I mean two faculty have taught us this particular course one is Dr Deepu Philip and the other one is Aman Deep Singh and I found Deepu Philip's lectures more invigorating and interesting because the kind of perspective he brings in is really worth listening to his lectures. Basically I had chosen two courses one for the project management for the managers and other for the steel quality which is basically through the secondary type of refining for the continuous casting and basically I am a working professional and to the considering the point which is either to upgrade our knowledge or upgrade our current uses or industrial practices so considering these two prospects I did this course course was really helpful and if anywhere we are stuck and we wanted help from the faculty I found it that someone was replying even through the mail that was the good exposure and as well as we had been connected through the different team or group they had made and through that we gathered a lot of information so overall it was a good Hi my name is Rami Reddy I have taken a certificate program for intellectual property for engineers and scientists so coming to the syllabus actually it's a nice syllabus and almost everything is covered in the Indian patent act and this is also useful for appearing a patent agent exam which is going to be conducted in India and the way which they conducted online it was very convenient and affordable for everybody and of course exam was also very nice and hope this will be useful for us and there is industry recognition for the certificate especially considering the intellectual property boom in India and also abroad so definitely is going to help us and I am planning to get into intellectual property right street and of course the exam center is nice it's convenient the basic necessities are provided like water and washrooms all that yes I appreciate the program which is introduced by IIT Hello everyone I am Manjesh from New Horizons College of Engineering mechanical department I am working there as a professor from 2010 I have opted for waste recovery system the course which went on for almost 12 weeks the professors two people who handled the course it was very excellent compared to the first person the second person was really outstanding and we enjoyed his lecture the examples that he gave and the things what he has given it was very effective and it was very easily understandable and our college is also promoting this kind of courses for the students to take up since our college is autonomous we have kept separately in 10 marks or 10 credits for this kind of courses where the students will be encouraged to take up in a very effective manner be serious and they write the exams very seriously and depending upon this course what they are going to get their CIE marks will be considered so in this way our college is also encouraging NPTEL courses we expect more courses to come up hereafter so it will be helpful for the faculties to improve their knowledge and even for the students to think out of course thank you very much my name is Shashank and I have taken the course of computer organization and architecture by professor B. Kamagothi from IITM Madras the videos were very good and the assignments to answer them the videos were sufficient the reason I took this course was to understand the subject to help in my further studies and this course has proved to be invaluable and I cannot express it anymore in words finding the test center was relatively easy but the commute was a long distance it's very far from home though we have mentioned our place of residence and our college the test center allocation came to be all towards city outskirts which I think could use some amount of improvement apart from that the facilities in the college were subpar and since it takes us long traveling time we decided to eat lunch around here but would not avail that facility or didn't have any canteens in the college to have our lunch now we'll have to go out and have it apart from that the NPTEL platform is very good and I don't find any problems with it the videos are perfectly on point and the assignments really help us improve and think for ourselves improving our knowledge that's all I have to say thank you hello I am Akshay B.P. from Diane and Sagar College of Engineering as I got to know about the NPTEL from my friends and I got to know that this conducts exam every six months once this time I had enrolled for three courses one is the programming in C++ and Python and third one is the computer organization the first two which I told was an eight week course which I gave the exam on September 23rd I guess and today I gave the exam for the 12 week course so the exam is very easy coming to how the portal of NPTEL works is they give you assignments and lecture on a weekly basis we have to complete that week's assignments before some specific deadline the portal was very user friendly and understandable and the courses are really helpful all the three courses which I enrolled were really amazing and the flow of the lecture were in a coherence so if I want to suggest to my juniors or anyone else I would suggest them to take up these courses and the exam location is very easily findable I didn't find any issue coming to this place one suggestion I would like to add here is the today's exam which I wrote has 50 questions all were MCQ's and if we would have studied all the 12 weeks we could have answered all those 50 questions in maximum one hour so I would suggest to decrease the time limit or something maybe this suggestion is useful or not I don't know yeah thank you this is Aishwarya I took the course cloud computing and it was on length it is very helpful because the assignments also the assignment period also it was like it was very sufficient for us to complete the assignments and the forums are very helpful in clearing doubts and for the beginners also it is helpful and every basic concepts have been clearly explained and it was precise it was very helpful how much time did you spend on the weekly video courses weekly video courses for weekly it is to us and it would be helpful in getting jobs I just wanted to add it as extra
