Quality Initiative : 2.5.3
In view of the outcome based education system (OBE) adopted by the institute, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of the existing system is very important.
The role of assessment in higher education institution plays a key role in the effective functioning of the system.
The program specific outcomes (PSOs) and Course outcomes (COs)/program outcomes (POs) are marked in the question papers of the continuous internal examination (CIE) and external evaluation i.e Semester End Examination (SEE).
The students are tested for different Blooms level in each question in the examination.
As an autonomous institution we are having our own syllabus (as per guidelines of AICTE), assessment methods and issue of transcripts for qualifying students at the end of course.
In order to ensure the strong and effective evaluation system, the examination process is completely digitized with a software CONTINEO.
IT integration done, starting with the student registration process, marking of attendance, entry of CIE assessment, entry of SEE assessment marks and also declaration of results with SGPA and CGPA.
The OBE assessments are integrated with the software and are available once the assessments are completed with the results announced in every semester.
The question paper of internal assessment will be subjected to quality assessment by the experts from different institutions and the short comings suggested by the experts will be informed to concerned faculty and will be given one opportunity to improve the quality of paper setting.
Through this feedback the examination system is getting improved in each semester.
For having a better transparency in the evaluation system, the students will be provided with a unique paper seeing facility after the announcement of results.
A notification will be made for paper seeing after the result announcement. The students can give their grievances in a separate form about the assessment short comings and this will be addressed by the faculty once again. Even after paper seeing, if the student feels that his grievance has not been met by the system, then he can apply for challenge revaluation.
The examinations in every semester will be conducted as per the calendar of events in both CIE and SEE and will be for one hour and three hour respectively. The notification of the examination will be announced one week prior to the scheduled date.
The results of regular and supplementary semester will be usually announced within ten days of the last course exam conducted.
The examination system has a malpractice committee (MPC) for examining the malpractice made by students. The students of such nature will be issued a notice to attend the MPC meeting on a prescribed date.
Even for faculty, the errors in evaluation of answer scripts made will be viewed seriously and memo will be issued and if found guilty, suitable action will be initiated.
