2.5: Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1: Mechanism of internal assessment is transparent and robust in terms of frequency and mode

                     Internal assessment in the institution is transparent and robust which includes advance mentoring, academic calendar, Grievance Redressal, internal marks uploading in the university portal. The college strictly adheres to guidelines of S.V University with regard to evaluation process. The college adopts two component systems for evaluation. Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) and End Semester Examination (ESE).  The ratio of weightage is 25 % for CIE and 75% for ESE.

           The process of internal evaluation starts at the classroom level. For every subject two internal examinations are conducted before each semester at departmental level giving fair chance to the absentees due to permissible circumstances and thus bring students under a uniform internal evaluation system. The marks are assigned to the internals taking into account the performance in assignments, unit test and attendance. The better of the two internal assessments with respect to each student is considered. The college house examination committee frames the guidelines for conducting CIE.

The following reforms have been carried out for CIE:

·         Schedule of internal examinations is intimated to the students well in advance despite mentioning the same in the academic calendar and college website.

·         The syllabus for the internal examination is also communicated to the students in the class by subject teacher one week in advance and also displayed on the department notice boards.

·         To ensure transparency the students are required to write the internal examinations in the specific institutional embalmed answer papers provided by the institution.

·         The faculty is directed to prepare question paper as per the syllabus and the standard of the university question paper keeping in consideration the POs and COs.

·         The question papers are scrutinized by internal examination co-ordinators under the guidance of HODs.

·         The scheme of evaluation is prepared by the subject teachers.

·         Answer scripts, evaluated by the subject teachers are distributed to the students for any correction in marks, re-totalling, revaluation etc.

·         Marks will be recorded in the internal marks register and the marks are displayed on the department notice boards.

·         Poor Performance due to frequent absenteeism is dealt with by informing the parents of such students.

·         Parent-teacher meetings are conducted after every internal assessment and feedback about performance of students is discussed.

·         Robustness of internal assessment is reflected in advanced mentoring, Academic calendar, Grievance Redressal, internals marks uploading in the University portal.   

·         The evaluation of laboratory courses is assessed by conducting one internal practical test as above.

Theory written test, practical test, assignment, Unit test and attendance are different components taken in to account for internal assessment.
