Instructions:

  • Each student-group (the group will be same as the lab group) has to select one paper from the list
  • Each student in the group has to study the paper selected and write a review of the paper.
  • Each student has to submit the review of the paper.
  • Copying the review written by other will bring zero marks to whole group. You can do joint study, but the review report is to be written separately.
  • Review report should not exceed more than 07 single sided A4 paper.
