teacher, not necessarily from English Department
3. Record Notebook: At the end of each session of English Lab, review exercises are
given for the students to answer and the computer evaluated sheets are to be
compiled as record notebook. Similar exercises for the career lab are to be compiled
in the record notebook.
4. Internal Assessment: The 15 marks (the other 5 marks for attendance) allotted for
the internal assessment will be based on the record notebook compiled by the
