2.2 Catering to Student Diversity 2.2.1 The institution assesses the learning levels of the students and organises

special Programmes for advanced learners and slow learners

Response:

The students who take admission to our institute invariably belong to diverse economic and social stratasof the society. The admission of the students is based on academic merit and observation of relevantreservation policies of the government and the process is regulated through Admission and CounselingCommittee of Directorate of Technical Education, Government of Madhya Pradesh. Caste, creed, gender,religion, social and economic status have no consideration during the process of admission of the students.Program fee is as decided by the Admission and Fee Regulatory Committee (AFRC) specially constitutedfor this purpose by the Government of Madhya Pradesh.

Once the students take admission, after following all the admission formalities, regular OrientationProgram is organized. This program enables the students to get familiarized with culture of the institute.This activity provides excellent opportunity to the faculties particularly who are teaching courses of Firstyear B.Tech. Program. The faculties evaluate the learning levels of the students. Further, the faculties alsoemploy various methodologies to assess the learning abilities of the students through impromptu quizzingsessions on general knowledge and basic subject knowledge of the qualifying examination. The studentsare given the opportunity to make presentation for short duration on topics of their interests. In addition thestudents are given group level tasks to build up team spirit right in the beginning. This OrientationPrograms becomes the basis of identifying students learning abilities and group them as advance learnersand slow learners.

Once a basic framework is established about the nature and the type of the slow learners, extra efforts areput in by the faculties by interacting with these slow learners more in informal ways so as to motivate themto enhance their learning pace. This is done in addition to formal interaction at the class room level onregular basis. Faculties also suggest slow learners to watch videos, animations which are freely availableon internet to get a better comprehension about specific difficult concepts so that the speed of their learningimproves. The slow learners are encouraged to join have group activities along with the fast learners toprovide them extended opportunities to shed their specific inhibitions and stigma if any, because of theirfamily background and make them enthused and interested to learn things at improved speeds. The specialremedial classes are arranged for the slow learners to cope up with the subjects and perform better in theuniversity examinations

As regard advanced learners, they are given activities and tasks according to their capabilities. The fastlearners are encouraged to read reference books of their choice course and also take active participation inindustrial training, internship and research related activities. Delivery of short lectures on contemporaryand state of art topics make advanced learners involved with group level activities.

Attainment of Program Outcome Evaluation:

Program Outcomes are assessed through Direct Assessment Methods and Indirect Assessment Methods.

Direct Assessment Methods:

Direct PO attainment is calculated using CO attainment with the help of the mapping table for CO-PO, Foreach course, the no. of COs mapped to each PO are identified.

PO attainment due to one course (Theory as well as Lab) is calculated by the relation

POxx attainment= (Average PO attainment/3)* CO Attainment of the subjec

Then final Direct PO attainment of each batch is calculated by taking the average of theseattainments as a result of all contributing subjects.

Indirect Assessment Methods:

Page 36/116 16-09-2020 05:12:55

Self Study Report of ORIENTAL COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY

Indirect Attainment of Program Outcomes is measured through Surveys. The various assessmentinstruments used for Indirect PO attainment are the surveys conducted for all the stake holders namelyStudents, Employers, Alumni, Faculties and Parents. Usually, equal weightages are given to all thestakeholders.

Using Direct and Indirect PO attainment, the PO attainment for an academic year is calculated as:

POxx Attainment= 0.5* Direct Attainment Score + 0.5* Indirect Attainment Score

Attainment of Course Outcome Evaluation:

Course Outcomes are assessed through Direct Assessment Methods and Indirect Assessment Methods.

Direct Assessment Methods

Direct Assessment Methods show the students knowledge and skills from their performance in the internalevaluation such as mid semester tests, assignments, presentations and university examination. Thesemethods provide a sampling of what students know, thus providing strong evidence of student learningagainst measureable course outcomes. The knowledge and skills described by the course outcomes aremapped to specific problems on internal exams/ assignment/group task. Throughout the semester thefaculty records the performance of each student on each course outcome. At the end of the semester directassessment of CO is computed combining the student performance on internal as well as universityexamination giving them 30:70 weightage. Students finally get grades from university.

Indirect Assessment Methods

Indirect Assessment methods use surveys and feedback from all the stakeholders namely Students,Employers, Alumni, Faculties and Parents.

Finally, course outcomes are assessed combining attainments through direct and indirect methods of 80:20.

Computation of Course Outcome for a particular course is calculated as-

Attainment of Course Outcome (COxx)= 0.8 * Direct Assessment Score + 0.2 * Indirect AssessmentScore where,Direct Assessment Score= 0.7 * EE + 0.3 * IEwhere, IE is Internal Evaluation. The number of assessment instruments used for IE for each subject isselected from: Mid Semester Exams, Assignments, Project, Lab assignments, presentations etc.

EE is External Evaluation. It is assessed using University Exam results for Theory and Practical.

The institute has outlined PO’s, PSO’s and CO’s for the holistic development of the students. Thisexercise ensures the attainment of the Program Outcomes such as environmental consciousness, civicsense, patriotism, team work and other essential life skills. The Program Specific Outcomes can be seen bythe university meritorious students continuously every year and by the excellent placement records offeringemployment by world level companies like TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, Wipro, Adani Power, etc.

The structure adopted for ensuring the availability of quality and quantity as follows:

At beginning of the academic year a review is carried out to access the need for stock updating or stockaddition of infrastructure based on suggestions of the Head of the Department. After reviewing the courserequirement, we calculate the student computer ratio (as per the norms of AICTE), budget allocation,working condition of the existing equipment and requirement of latest configuration of computers aretaken into consideration in deciding about the infrastructure requirement.

The IT infrastructure is updated regularly. Also to maintain the computer system the institute enters into anagreement for AMC so that systems are always in use. Renewal of AMC is done at the beginning of theacademic year for already utilized software, UPS and generators. The Institute has a total of 600 computersfor students which are upgraded on regular basis and are inter connected through LAN. At present we arehaving Intel Core i5- Processors for first year students. Computer labs have power backup which providesuninterrupted power supply along with dedicated 125 kVA diesel generator set.

They are as under.(1) Protection of Environment: Pollution is a major problem of present times, which is due tocommercial organizations. Air pollution and water pollution are due to the industries, chemical plants,cement plants, etc. An institution should take all possible measures to minimize pollution.(2) Reasonable use of Resources: An institution should make proper use of available resources in thelarge interest of the society. The resources like fuel, water, land, etc. must be used economically.(3) Reservation for Weaker Section: An institution is expected to provide the jobs and employmentopportunities for uplifting economically weaker section of the society.(4) Development of Villages and Backward Regions: The society requires that An institution should startdevelopment in villages and backward areas in every aspect. This will uplift the overall rural population.(5) Financial Assistance: The society expects donations and financial assistance for various social causes,such as eradication of poverty, illiteracy, etc. They expect company to take part in anti-drug campaigns,anti-noise campaigns, and so on.

2009

Activities are still continuing in big numbers. Recently College has celebrated Swachhta Pakhwada 2020under the guidance of RGPV for which several programs have been organized.

Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The major challenge of executing this practice includes making the intuition to uphold social responsibilityactivities as well as the institutional academics both sustainable in four ways: ethics, economic, social andenvironmental. Paying equal amount of attention to all the four dimensions, but many institutions think thatsocial responsibility is a much exterior part of their business, whereas most think it to be an irrelevant issuefor their business as satisfying their students is more important for them. It is further felt that socialresponsibility is crucial over the knowledge inculcation and skill development among students.Concentrating only on academic aspects makes them blind folded towards other important changes takingplace nationwide. The change is named as social responsibility which is an opportunity in itself for thefuture.

Best Practice-2

Title of Practice: Employability Enhancement Training Model (EETM)

Objectives:

Development of the competent workforce of the country. It is expected that the under graduates andpostgraduates who have passed out successfully from the college are competent and fit enough to workindependently in a variety of settings.

The context:

In response to this, OCT has introduced an Employability Enhancement Training Model for setting up ahigh standard of employability enhancement which ensures training of undergraduates and postgraduates

Page 95/116 16-09-2020 05:13:28

Self Study Report of ORIENTAL COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY

who can function independently as engineers, experts, researchers or technical teachers when theycomplete their course. This model is a progressive step that addresses variability of standards within andacross the departments.

The practice:

Entrusted professional activities is an essential professional work, activity or task for future engineers thatrequires specialized knowledge and skills, and encompasses multiple competencies. Once done, it ensuresthat the outgoing graduates can be trusted to perform that professional activity at any level.

S. No. Table showing Steps involved in Employability Enhancement Training Model (EETM)1 Departments prepare a list of competencies required to be attained by the graduates and set

their levels to identify at what level students are achieving them.2 Competency level are evaluated two times in a semester3 Appropriate actions are taken if it required and improvement over this practice is found out

if any.4 The students are graded by the faculty after admission and the difference in levels, if any,

between self-assessment and faculty assessment, would be shared with the student asfeedback. This process enables the student to understand the differences between one’s ownperspective and that of the trainer.

5 On admission, each student is allotted Tutor Guardian (TG) who will mentor with thestudent till the completion of the course.

6 The mentor follows and records the progress of the student on regular intervals.7 The students are encouraged to discuss aspects of their training, the difficulties perceived in

the course and other relevant issues with the mentor.8 The mentor responds to the queries and records his/her observations in his/her weekly post.9 For students not showing ‘Satisfactory’ progress, intervention in the form of a focussed

feedback and additional exposure to learning resources and skill training is instituted.10 In addition to the TG, other HoD can also monitor the progress of the student & provide

constructive feedback.Common Skill Required by Engineers

Evidence of success:

The main highlight of model is preparation of a list of EPAs. Since competencies are not directlymeasurable they are stated in terms of EPAs and their levels. Each EPA is mapped to respective andappropriate domains of competency and level of competency at the end of 1st to 8th semester ofundergraduate course and at the end of 1st to 8th semester of Postgraduate course. Outcome of this processis we have successfully made our students competent and ready for the industry. Our placed studentsthemselves show the evidence how effective we have executed this practice.
