  3. RESTRUCTURING UG EDUCATION The U G reforms through:- • 1.SEMESTERISATION • 2. CHOICE BASED CREDITS • 3. CONTINUOUS EVALUATION • 4. GRADING

  4. SEMESTER • A term consisting of a min. of 90 working days distributed over a min. of 18 weeks (5 months inclusive of exam. Days ie, 450 hours of instructions) • Academic year is divided into two semesters • Odd Semesters from June to October • Even Semesters from December to April • (1 month leave in November & May ) • For a programme min. 6 semesters & not more than 12 continuous semesters

  5. SEMESTER SYSTEM (1) • Morefocused learningthrough manageable modules • Comprehensive coverage of topics of study • Greaterdepth of study • Less demand of massive memory recall

  6. SEMESTER SYSTEM (2) • Evaluation within a short span of time • Thorough assessment during each semester • More productive learning environment • Feedback for the appraisal of students level for improvement

  7. SEMESTER SYSTEM (3) • Mechanism for effective grievance redressal • Scope for new addition of emerging areas of learning • Selection of multi-disciplinary courses • Good platform for continuous assessment

  8. SEMESTER SYSTEM (4) • Opportunity to select subject combinations • Platform for choice based credits • Freedom for redesigning curriculum at regular intervals • Inclusion of self study components

  9. SEMESTER SYSTEM (5) • Cultivating skill development: critical thinking, creative ability and communicative competence • Relevant need based education for employment • Transformation in teaching and learning practices

  16. PROGRAMME STRUCTURE • Language courses • Foundation courses • Complementary courses • Core Courses • Dissertation/ Project • Open / Elective Courses

  18. Designing Courses • Establish Scope/ Aim & Objective/ Pre-requisites • Code & Title • Assign total Credit of the course / Contact hours • Allot Number of Modules • Assign Credit for each module / Contact hours • Develop Modules Content (Course Content for the module) • Suggest Text Books for each module • Suggest Reference books • Frame Model Question Papers • Set the Evaluation Scheme

  19. Course codes • First two letters indicates the name of subject (AR/EN) • First digit (1) to indicate First Degree Programme • Second digit to indicate the semester(1/2/3/4/5/6) • Third digit to indicate type of course : 1-Language Courses,2-Foundation Courses, 3-Complementary Courses, 4-Core Courses, 5 – open Courses • Last digit to indicate the course number in the semester • Extension Number (ie, digit after dot) indicate the programme category as1 for regular BA/B.Sc, 2 for Bcom and 3 for career related B.Sc / B.com • For example EN 1111 ( FDP English, 1st semester, Language course, course number 1 in the semester)AR1211.3 (Career relatedFDP Arabic, 2nd semester Additional language course number 1in th Sem.)

  28. MECHANICS OF DIRECT GRADING Assessment of quality on a five point scale for each question Assigning weightage depending on the nature of the question Calculation of weighted average Certification on a seven point scale

  29. PROCESS OF DIRECT GRADING(1) Each answer is graded with letters Weightage is then given based on the range of the question Grades and weightages are assigned numerical values The weighted grade points arrived by multiplying grade points by weightage

  30. PROCESS OF DIRECT GRADING (2 ) Grade Point Average (GPA) Sum of weighted grade points is divided by the sum of the weightage to arrive Grade Point Average (GPA) for the course

  31. PATTERN OF QUESTIONS • Knowledge acquired • Application of knowledge • Application of knowledge in new situations • Critical evaluation of knowledge • Ability to synthesize knowledge
