Basic IT Tools is a 2-credit Skill Enhancement Course (SEC) under Delhi University's UGCF 2022, taught in 2025-26 as a 0 lecture, 0 tutorial, 2 practical (p.1 credit table). As per the official syllabus on academicaffairs.du.ac.in, the course is organised as four blocks — Unit 1 Introduction to Spreadsheets (16 hours), Unit 2 Data Analysis in Spreadsheets including pivot tables/charts and an intro to macros (16 hours), Unit 3 Word Processing with styles, tables, Mail Merge and bibliography (12 hours), and Unit 4 Databases with tables, queries, forms and reports in Access (16 hours). Practical outcomes include word-processor formatting, spreadsheet functions/pivot tables, and database queries/forms/reports (Learning Outcomes p.1-2). Evaluation is 'as per University guidelines' (p.3); no 25/25/50 table is printed in this PDF. Examiners deduct heavily for theory-only answers about Excel or Access without screenshots or steps — e.g., not showing absolute vs relative referencing, pivot table grouping, or query design — which carry most marks. For revision, map each PYQ to its unit — middle units repeat most — and confirm your college's exact paper code before the exam, as SEC codes vary by theme (as of 12 Sept 2026).
