Chemistry” in attainment of PLO1

Weightage of the course/ total weightage of all courses =54/1548 = 3.48%. Here 1548 is total
of weightage of all courses contributing PLO1 computed based on correlation between Course
Learning Outcomes with the Program Learning Outcomes and Six Sigma tool.

Similarly compute weighted percentage of contribution of each course in attainment of
PLO1.
Attainment of CLOs
Attainment of CLOs is computed using Direct and Indirect Assessment methods. Direct
Method of assessment is based on performance of student in university examination, internal
assessment, assignments, term work and oral/practical examinations and Indirect Method of
assessment is based on periodical feedback from stake holders at the end of each course.
A) CLO attainment by Direct Assessment tools:

1) Assessment of CLOs from End Semester Exam : Based on the result of End
Semester Exam, the number of students scoring more than 60% in every subject are
found out. (Percentage of marks can be changed).
2) Assessment of CLOs from Term-work & Oral / Practical Exam : Based on the
result of Term-work & Oral /Practical Exam, the number of students scoring more
than 60% in every subject is found out. This also includes the marks of the Term-work
which are based on Continuous assessment of the student for the entire semester. This
covers his performance in punctuality (timely submission), presentation and understanding
in every lab work /assignments/drawing sheets.
3) Assessment of CLOs from Unit Test Exam : While framing the syllabus, care is
taken to frame the unit in such a manner that each CLO is covered in teaching when
a particular unit is covered in the teaching process. Three Unit Tests are conducted; the
syllabus of each unit test is well defined stating the Unit numbers that will be assessed in
that unit test. Care is taken to set the questions on specific units while setting the paper of
each unit test. By knowing the results of three-unit tests, marks obtained by the student in
each unit of the syllabus is known.
If a student scores 60% marks in a question, it is considered that he has understood that unit
to the required extent and corresponding CLO is attained. Average of all CLO attainments of
a student considering all the three unit tests, represents the performance of the student in Unit
Tests.

Following table shows the sample attainment of calculation of attainment of CLO s based on
the performance in Unit Tests.
