Theory papers:

Each item under this classification is evaluated on the basis of 100 percentage points, sub- divided into the following four categories:

a) End-Semester examination : 70 points

Operational Guidelines

i. Based on the recommendations of the respective HOD’s and approved by the Principal, the COE will appoint two paper setters for independently framing three sets of question paper and also at least one moderator for each course code. For Supplementary examinations, the same process would be followed.

ii. The final question paper shall be prepared from amongst the three above sets by the moderator in presence of COE. The moderator will also have the right to change / modify / add questions; he should ensure that questions have been set from different modules of the syllabus, and have proper grading for students of high merits as well as students of average merit.

iii. Faculty members of the Institute /other Institutes will be appointed as Examiner(s) by the COE for evaluation of the answer scripts, duly recommended by the respective BOS and approved by the Academic Council.

iv. In case number of candidates in a course code exceeds 200, the COE may appoint a Head Examiner with the approval of the Principal.

v. The COE shall also appoint Scrutinizers, as required, with the approval of the Principal. In all the cases (mentioned above), the Dy. Controller of Examinations will assist the COE.

vi. The results will be published normally within 30 days from date of completion of End Semester Examination.

b) Course tests/class tests: 15 points

Operational Guidelines

64 i. At least two tests are to be conducted at near-identical intervals. The best performance is to be considered for the final reckoning.

It is advised to conduct more tests, if required. If a student does not do well in a test, the student has to be mentored for better performance and additional tests may be conducted, if required. Records of the tests (answer scripts and other relevant documents to be kept in the Department/COE, so that University can cross check.) For internal Tests questions are to be Outcome Based. Avoid questions which involve only memory exercise like stating a law or theorem.

ii. The COE, in consultation with BOE/Examination Committee, will set the test schedule and announce test dates as per Institution calendar with the prior approval of the Principal.

iii. Test scripts are to be corrected / evaluated within ten days of actual conduct of test and the solutions are to be discussed in the class. During the discussions the students can have access to the corrected scripts. The final award of marks list for each test is to be put on the notice board within next two days and copies of the same along with evaluated answer scripts communicated to the COE for record.

iv. The process is repeated for each test.

c) Quizzes and assignments: 10 points

Operational Guidelines:

Assignments are to be given in all of the following forms (each form develops unique skills within the students):

i. Problem Solving—Numeric and conceptual. ii. Term paper – A systematic report on a topic to be submitted under the guidance of a faculty member after doing necessary exploration of knowledge on the topic. iii. Mini project – A small project on the topic or problem assigned by the teacher and covered by the course being taught. The duration of the project must not be more than one month. iv.

The course teachers will conduct at least 2 unannounced quizzes during the lecture/tutorial class and suitable number of home assignments are to be cleared by the student within stipulated time. The course teacher is solely responsible for final award under this category.

d) Attendance regularity and participation in the class: 5 points

Operational Guidelines: 65 The award under this category is the sole prerogative of the course teacher. Whereas attendance/regularity in a class is factual, assessment about participation is subjective. The idea is to encourage teacher/student interaction in conduct of courses and discourage one-way communication.

The course teacher, in consultation with respective HOD, shall finalize the award of a student [out of 30, comprising b), c) and d)] and communicate the award list to the COE/Dy. COE’s office under sealed cover.

Practical papers:

Every paper in this category shall be evaluated out of 100 percentage points, divided under two broad categories as detailed below:

a) End Semester examination: 60 percentage points

Operational Guidelines: i. There shall be an End Semester Examination in each laboratory item. The evaluation may be done based on:

 Organization of the experiment  Actual data generated and the actual conduct of the experiment assigned.  Data analysis/Synthesis and Conclusions etc.  A comprehensive Viva-Voce seeking general awareness of the lab subject.

The relative emphasis shall be left to the HOD and the course teacher.

ii. The award shall be finalized immediately by the course teacher and submitted in sealed cover to the COE / Dy. COE’s office. All materials used by students during examination, is to be preserved for spot checking by HOD / COE, if desired.

b) Laboratory Sessionals: 40 percentages points.

i. The course teacher shall be the sole authority for finalizing award under this item.

ii. He/She shall divide the points under the following guidelines:  Attendance and regularity 05 points  Preparedness for conduct of experiment 10 points  Initiative to learn and interact 10 points  Presentation of lab report, its regularity 15 points in submission and content

iii. The course teachers finalize the award (out of 40 points) before the end – semester examination and communicate the same under sealed cover to the COE/ Dy.COE’s office. 66

Sessionals (out of 100 percentage points) :

Explanation & Operational Guidelines

Sessionals are those where, either the formal institutional contact hours are not specified, (viz., Practical Training, Extra/Co-curricular participation), or there are no formal End Semester examination of the written kind, (viz., Comprehensive Viva-Voce, Seminar, Industrial Training, etc.). For all items under these categories, the evaluation will be done internally through a Departmental Committee, appointed by the Departmental Head and duly endorsed by the Principal.

The norms for assessment may vary from item to item. A broad guideline is suggested below: i. For items which are conducted outside the Institution viz., Industrial training, Curricular/Extra-curricular participation etc. – assessment may be made on the basis of Supervisor’s assessment, report submitted by the student, if any, participation & attendance, and Viva-Voce conducted by a Departmental Committee, constituted by the Departmental Head and duly ratified by the Principal.

ii. Items conducted in the Department / Institution viz., Seminar, Comprehensive Viva-Voce – are evaluated by the Departmental Academic Committee(s) constituted by the Department(s) and ratified by the Principal, based on participation and attendance in this course, comprehension of seminars by fellow students, presentation and content of seminar presented, capability to address to questions by participants.

The award list for this paper is finalized by all the members of the Departmental Academic Committee before the starting of the end-semester theory/practical examinations, and shall be communicated to the COE / Dy. COE’s office under sealed cover.

5.6. Declaration of result, promotions and grading system:
