Events like hackathons not only give a platform to test programming skills, they also simulate an environment wherein one can experience working in a collaborative environment under a time constraint and helps to improve communication skills. Keeping this in mind, the Department of Computer Science conducted this activity for the students of BCA-1 and PGDCA.
Programming questions like finding error in the code, predict output of the program etc. were given to the students. Time allotted was 45 minutes to them with no negative marking. All the students of BCA and PGDCA participated in the activity effectively. This activity helped them in assessing their knowledge and problem solving skills. Later on, the activity was concluded with confidence boosting speech by HOD, Mrs. Pooja Rathi.
