(Describe in which media (e.g. websites, curricula books) the POs are published and how these are
disseminated to stakeholders)
The Program Outcomes are published at
Department website http://www.vrsiddhartha.ac.in/it/
College website http://www.vrsiddhartha.ac.in/
Curriculum books
Notice boards
Apart from this, Program outcomes are made reachable to all the stakeholders of the
program through education, faculty workshops, student awareness workshops,
programs, student induction programs and faculty meetings.
2.1.3. Indicate processes employed for defining of POs (5)
(Describe the process that periodically documents and demonstrates that the POs are defined in
alignment with the graduate attributes prescribed by NBA.)
Program Outcomes are established through the consultation process with stake holders keeping
the Graduate Attributes defined by NBA as basis. Department Vision, Mission and Program
Educational Objectives are also kept in view. The professional society namely ACM guidelines on
curriculum and graduate outcomes are also considered in The detailed establishment process is
depicted in Figure 2.1.

The Graduate Attributes of NBA and the Program Outcomes defined for the program are
aligned to each other as shown in Table 2.2.

Graduate Attributes prescribed by NBA:
i. Engineering Knowledge
ii. Problem Analysis
iii. Design & Development of Solutions
iv. Investigation of Complex Problem

2.1.5. Establish the correlation between POs and PEOs (10)
(Explain how the defined POs of the program correlate with the PEOs)
As the outcomes are expected to attain by the prime of graduate and PEOs are expected
to attain few years after graduation, they have as many contributions as shown in Table
2.3. Each PEO is contributed to at most 6-7 Program Outcomes and each program
outcomes are in contributing to one or more PEOs as shown in Table 2.3. In this table
the letters L and H indicate low and high correlations of the outcome with the PEO
and a blank indicates absence of correlation.

Table 2.3: Mapping between Program Outcomes to Program Educational Objectives

2.2. Attainment of Program Outcomes (40)
2.2.1. Illustrate how course outcomes contribute to POs (10)
(Provide the correlation between the course outcomes and the program outcomes. The strength of the
correlation may also be indicated)
The program outcomes are achieved through curriculum that offers a number of
mandatory courses as well as elective courses. Each course has defined course
outcomes that are mapped to the program outcomes and a set of performance criteria
that are used to provide quantitative measurement of how well course outcomes are
achieved.
The linkage among program outcomes and course outcomes is shown in Table 2.4. The
course outcomes are thus directly and quantitatively assessed, and are tied to the
program outcomes as shown in the course syllabi. Therefore if the course outcomes are
met, the program outcomes are met.
The course outcomes of each core course are mapped to the Program Outcomes with a
level of emphasis being either strongly correlated (2) and moderately correlated (1). The
level of emphasis of a program outcome is determined by the weight used for assessing
the outcome in each course. The level of emphasis for an outcome is determined by the
weight as follows:
When the course outcome weightage is < 40%, it will be given as moderately correlated
(1).
When the course outcome weightage is >40%, it will be given as strongly correlated (2).

Table 2.4: Impact of Program Courses on Program Outcomes

2.2.2. Explain how modes of delivery of courses help in attainment of POs (10)
(Describe the different course delivery methods/modes (e.g. Lecture interspersed with discussion,
Asynchronous mode of interaction, group discussion, project etc.) used to deliver the courses and justify
the effectiveness of these methods for the attainment of POs. This may be further justified using the
indirect assessment methods such as course-end surveys)
Content delivery methods:
POGIL: POGIL is an acronym for Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning. POGIL
activities involve giving students a model to work with, and then asking a series of
leading and challenging questions. This allows them to construct their own knowledge of
a concept.
The following are the various other content delivery methods used to deliver the
courses:
M0: POGIL
M1: Lecture interspersed with discussions
M2: Lecture with a quiz
M3: Tutorial
M4: Demonstration ( Such as model, laboratory, field visit )
M5: Group Discussion
M6: Group Assignment/ Project
M7: Presentations
M8: Asynchronous Discussion
Learning Resources sharing
On-line learning system - Moodle is in use to perform asynchronous activities to
assign various tasks like group assignments / group projects and to share the
materials.
In addition to the syllabus mentioned in the curriculum, the students are exposed
themselves as they are provided with the e-content through national and
international portals such as:
NPTEL http://nptel.iitm.ac.in
Stanford Engineering Everywhere (SEE) http://see.stanford.edu/
MIT Open Courseware http://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm
The delivery methods are chosen appropriate to meet the Program Outcomes. The
generalized mapping of the of the course delivery methods to the program outcomes is
shown in Table 2.5.
With the implementation of the specified delivery methods, the effectiveness of the
courses is enhanced which is illustrated in Figure 2.2 to Figure 2.5 for few sample
courses. Effectiveness of course delivery methods for the attainment of Program
72
Outcomes is represented in Table 2.6 for sample course.

2.2.3. Indicate how assessment tools used to assess the impact of delivery of
course/course content contribute towards the attainment of course
outcomes/programme outcomes (10)
(Describe different types of course assessment and evaluation methods (both direct and indirect) in
practice and their relevance towards the attainment of POs)

Assessment Tools used:
1. Direct Assessment Tools
Home Assignment-Each and every student is assigned with course related tasks
during every course work once or twice and assessment will be done based on their
performance. Grades are assigned depending on their innovation in solving/deriving
the problems.
Assignment-The assignment is a qualitative performance assessment tool
designed to assess students' knowledge of engineering practices, framework, and
problem solving. An analytic rubric was developed to assess students' knowledge
with respect to the learning outcomes associated with the scenario tool.
Online Examination- Online Examination System is a Multiple Choice Questions
(MCQ) based examination system that provides an easy to use environment for both
Test Conductors and Students appearing for Examination.
Sessional-This type of performance assessment is carried out during the
examination sessions which are held twice a semester. Each and every sessional is
focused in attaining the course outcomes.

Semester End Examination-Semester End examination is a metric for assessing
whether all the POs are attained or not. Examination is more focused on attainment
of course outcomes and program outcomes using a descriptive exam.
Rubrics- A rubric explains to students the criteria against which their work will be
judged with the scoring rules. It makes public key criteria that students can use in
developing, revising, and judging their own work. The Pos Assessment Rubrics is
enclosed in APPENDIX II

2. Indirect Assessment Tools
Program level statistics- At the end of every academic year annual report is
developed where the statistics of students who have participated in professional
bodies/student chapters/workshops/seminars/conferences/paper presentations
/internships/industry visit etc.. is prepared. This statement is considered to
indirectly assess the POs
Survey reports- Indirect assessment strategies may be easily implemented by
embedding them in the end-of-course evaluation form, Alumni Survey and Employer
Survey.
Graduate/Exit Survey: during the program
Alumni Survey: after one year of graduation
Employer Survey: after one year of graduation
The assessment tools used for attainment of Program Outcomes are tabulated in Table

2.3. Assessment of the attainment of Programme Outcomes (125)
2.3.1. Describe assessment tools and processes used for assessing the attainment
of each (25)
Describe the assessment process that periodically documents and demonstrates the degree to which
the Programme Outcomes are attained. Also include information on:
a) A listing and description of the assessment processes used to gather the data upon which the
evaluation of each the programme educational objective is based. Examples of data collection
processes may include, but are not limited to, specific exam questions, student portfolios, internally
developed assessment exams, senior project presentations, nationally-normed exams, oral exams,
focus groups, industrial advisory committee;
b) The frequency with which these assessment processes are carried out;
Program Outcome Assessment Process
The step by step process for assessing program outcomes is tabulated in Table 2.10. The
assessment process involved in the assessment of Program Outcomes is shown in Figure
2.7:
Step 1: The Program coordinator analyses each outcome into elements (different abilities
specified in the outcome) and a set of attributes are defined for each element (actions that
explicitly demonstrate mastery of the abilities specified). In addition, generate well
designed surveys to assess the outcome.
Step 2: For each outcome define performance indicators (Assessment criteria) and their
targets.
Step 3: Identify/select courses that address the outcome (each course contributes to at
least one of the outcomes). Hence, each outcome is assessed in several courses to ensure
that students acquire an appropriate level in terms of knowledge/skills of an outcome.
Step 4: The module coordinators collects the qualitative and quantitative data and were
used for outcome assessment in a continual process.
Step 5: The Program Assessment Committee analyze the collected data. If the assessed
data meets the performance targets which are specified in step 2, the outcome is attained.
Otherwise, consider step6.
Step 6: The Department Advisory Board recommends content delivery methods/course
outcomes/ curriculum improvements as needed.

c) The expected level of attainment for each of the program outcomes;
d) Summaries of the results of the evaluation processes and an analysis illustrating the extent to which
each of the programme outcomes are attained; and
e) How the results are documented and maintained.
The program outcomes are assessed with the help of course outcomes of the relevant
courses through direct and indirect methods.
Direct measures are provided through direct examinations or observations of student
knowledge or skills against measureable course outcomes.
The knowledge and skills described by the course outcomes are mapped to specific
problems on internal exams/home assignment/group task. Throughout the semester
the faculty records the performance of each student on each course outcome. The
sample course assessment is enclosed in APPENDIX III. At the end of the semester
students receive grades from external exams.
Indirect assessment strategies are implemented by embedding them in the course end
survey, Graduate survey and Alumni Survey which are enclosed in APPENDIX V & VI
Finally, program outcomes are assessed with above mentioned data and Program
Assessment Committee concludes the Po attainment level. The sample PO assessment
is enclosed in APPENDIX IV
Program Outcomes Assessment and Attainment
Program Outcome 1: An ability to apply knowledge of computing, mathematics,
science and engineering fundamentals appropriate to the discipline
The program assessment committee reviews all course outcomes which are relevant to
this PO. Specifically the task was to review the course outcome assessment results
towards PO assessment for each course and to draw some conclusion on how the
program outcomes are attained. This program outcome is considered as two sub
program outcomes namely ability of applying the knowledge of mathematics and
sciences and Engineering/Computing fundamentals. The abilities are broadly assessed
with programming skills, logical thinking, problem solving and design of engineering

problems.
The student ability in apply knowledge of mathematics/Science principles to provide
numerical solution to model the problem is evaluated with course outcomes towards
tabulated courses.
From the tabulated courses, one course IT 3004 Data structures is considered as an
example for assessment. Tools for assessment are both direct and indirect tools which
are specified in the above Table.
The Course Outcome 1: able to interpret and compute asymptotic notations of an
algorithm to analyze the consumption of resources (time/space) is related to this
program outcome. For the assessment of this CO, the question Write a C program to
construct a Data structure where Traversal requires less space complexity and
traversal is allowed in both directions is given in Assignment-I. From the scripts
analysis, it is observed that above 70% of students performed well.
Likewise, other question is Write a program to solve the following problem: You have
two jugs, a 4-gallon and a 3-gallon. Neither of the jugs has markings on them. There is
a pump that can be used to fill the jugs with water. How can you get exactly two
gallons of water in the 4 gallon jug? is given in Sessional-II. This involves solving of
computing fundamentals. This is related to course outcomes 4: Identify, model, solve
and develop code for real life problems like shortest path and MST using graph theory
and course outcome 6: Identify appropriate data structure and algorithm for a given
contextual problem and develop in C. More than 75% students are good in course
attainment.
The number of students appeared and succeeds in internal exams/home assignment for
the example course is shown in Figure 2.8 and Figure 2.9.

Where m = Number of course outcomes considered for PO assessment

From the above Figure 2.8 and 2.9, it is noticed that in home assignment tasks Course
outcomes 4 and 6 are partially attained in the A.Y 2011-12 due to improper content
delivery method for the specific concept. In the A.Y. 2012-13, the performance of the
students improved towards the attainment of course outcomes 4 and 6 by adopting the
POGIL Teaching and Learning method.
Similarly, the PO assessment is done for the remaining course outcomes for tabulated
courses. At the end based on PO assessment function, it is concluded that students
achieved up to 98% towards the abilities in programming skills, logical thinking,
problem solving and design of engineering problems related to mathematics and
sciences.
Evidences:
Internal and external exam papers for these courses are available in examination
section.
Course end survey, Graduate survey, and Alumni Survey documents files are available in
the department office.

Program Outcome 2: An ability to analyze a problem, and identify and formulate the
computing requirements appropriate to its solution.
The program assessment committee reviews all course outcomes relevant to this PO.
Specifically the task was to review the courses assessment results towards PO
assessment for each course and to draw some conclusion on how the program
outcomes attained.
This program outcome is considered as two sub program outcomes namely: Analyze a
given problem and Identify and define the computing requirements for a given problem
99
which are appropriate to its solution
The ability of the students in understanding the description and definition of the
problem is assessed from the term paper and apply this knowledge in development of
mini and major projects.
The student ability to analyze a problem, and identify and formulate the computing
requirements appropriate to its solution is evaluated with the above mentioned PO
assessment equation with course outcomes towards tabulated courses.
From the tabulated courses, one course IT 3004 Data structures is considered as an
example to illustrate the assessment. Tools for assessment are both direct and indirect
tools which are specified in the above Table.
The question asked in the Assignment I in the year 2011-12 "Write a program in C to evaluate a
postfix expression? meets the CO1: Interpret and compute asymptotic notations of an
algorithm to analyze the consumption of resources (time/space). In understanding the problem,
the question was answered by all the students and 72% of students attained.
The question asked in the Sessional II in the year 2011-12 To explain Dijkstras algorithm for a
given graph? CO4: Identify, model, solve and develop code for real life problems like shortest
path and MST using graph theory. Above 80% of the students answered this question and 89%
of these students attained the desired criteria of attainment.
The question asked in Assignment I in the year 2012-13 "Execute a search algorithm in C
Language for unsorted data whose time complexity is o(n) meets the CO1: Interpret and
compute asymptotic notations of an algorithm to analyze the consumption of resources
(time/space). The above 70% of students have attempted this question and only 56% of the
students attained. So CO is in the moderate attained state of level. Later the similar type of
question was asked in Sessional II in the year 2012-13 Write a recursive C code for all traversal
techniques in a non linear data structures whose time complexity is O(logn) meets the CO1. In
this case 63% have attempted and 96% of the students have attained. So CO is strongly
attained.
The number of students appeared and succeeds in internal exams/home assignment for the
example course is shown in Figure 2.10 to Figure 2.12.

In the micro analysis of the internal marks of IT 6005, the average attainments are
87.03% and 83.80% in the years 2010-11 and 2011-12 respectively. It is a clear evidence
that the students are capable in understanding and formulating the computing
requirements of the given problem which is suitable to its solution.
IT 8052 is assessed with the predefined rubrics. From Figure 2.12, it clearly signifies that
as compared to the year 2010-11, there was an increase in clear understanding of the
104
problem and identifying the computing requirements needed to its solution. This is
achieved with the help of conducting Guest lecturers/seminars/workshops in the
department.
Group Tasks are assigned to the students to solve using the new technologies based on
already learnt technologies so that they can check the optimality interms of cost and
time complexities. To make Students become globally talented, they should be a
registered member of online courses like Coursera, MOOC etc., Student is get
recognized globally if he/she is certified by third agency. So students are encouraged to
obtain professional certifications in the core area from different vendors like Brain

Program Outcome 3: An ability to design, implement, and evaluate a computer-based
system, process, component, or program to meet desired needs with appropriate
consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal and environmental
considerations.
This outcome is assessed using direct and indirect assessment methods with selected
courses and student participation in research projects. The student is able to design a
system which may consist of components or processes which should be realistic in terms
of its functions. The student should also be able to evaluate the performance of the
system.
The program assessment committee is reviewed all course outcomes which are relevant
to this PO. Specifically the task was to review the courses assessment results towards PO
outcomes attained.
This program outcome is considered as two sub program outcomes namely
Mathematics and sciences and Engineering/Computing fundamentals. The abilities

In the micro analysis of the internal marks of IT 3004, the average attainments are 81%
and 92% in the years 2010-11 and 2011-12 respectively. It is clearly evident that the
students have capability to design, implement, and evaluate a computer-based system.
From the analysis of FY 2005, noticed that the students are succeed in learning how to
write modular, efficient and readable C programs, utilize pointers to efficiently solve
problems and use functions from the portable C library.
Form the Figure 2.13, it observed that basic techniques for design and analysis of
algorithms and the problems in NP-complete are thoroughly analyzed by the students.
Course outcome 4 is strongly attained and there by PO attained in the A.Y 2011-12.
achieved up to 78% towards the abilities in design, implement and evaluate a process or
program for a given problem.

Evidences:
Sample copies of internal examinations are available in the department examination
cell.
Course end survey, Graduate survey and Alumni survey documents files are available in
the department office
The assessment rubric given prior to the students published in the department website:
http://www.vrsiddhartha.ac.in/it and notice board.

Program Outcome 4: An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and
interpret data
108
The program outcome refers to the four different learning levels of Blooms taxonomy
as: Designing experiments, Conducting experiments, Analyzing data, Interpreting data.
The order of difficulty flows from top to bottom.
Students are able to select topic, identify problems, formulate questions, design and
carry out experiments in various lab courses in the program curriculum. Faculty provides
a set of data from which student analyzes the data, discuss possible reasons for
deviations between predicted and measured results from an experiment.
From the lab courses, this outcome is assessed with student abilities in design, test
analytical and experimental solutions. The evaluation is done based on how the student
designed solution for a given problem and draw conclusions from a range of results.
The program assessment committee is reviewed all course outcomes which are relevant
to this PO. Specifically the task was to review the courses assessment results towards PO
outcomes attained.
From the tabulated courses, one course IT 3051 Data structures Lab is considered as an
example for assessment. Tools for assessment are both direct and indirect tools which
are specified in the Table.2.11
The course is conducted in a challenge lab fashion where the student is provided the
basic knowledge and he/she is asked to design the experiment in an inquiry model. The
student estimates the data structure model needed to get the desired output (provided
by the faculty), identify variables required and executes the program. Some of the tasks
given to the students in Academic year 2011-12 as challenge lab is provided below.
1. How many temporary pointers do you require to traverse in a linked list whose node structure
has only one address field? Reduce the number of pointers used by modifying the structure of the
node.
2. Consider the railway switching network in the figure below. Railroad cars are numbered
from 0,1,2,3,4,5,6. All these cars are on the right in the order shown. Each car has to be brought on
to the maintenance track one by one. If maintenance is completed the car can be send to the left.
What data structure will you use to implement if this process is completely automated. Write code
for this.

3. Set A
Input 1 : 12 6 8 5 6 92 4
Key : 6
Output 1: Key value 6 is present at index 2.
Input 2 : 12 0 9 6 7 5 3
Key : 6
109
Input 3 : 12 0 9 6 7 5 3
Key : 8
Output 3: Key value 8 is not present.
Set B

Key value 6 is present at index 5.
Input 2 : 12 0 9 6 7 5 3
Key : 6
Input 3 : 12 0 9 6 7 5 3
Key : 8
Analyze the data sets A, B and interpret what modifications are to be done in code.

Even though the same course during the academic year 2010-11 is not conducted in the
challenge fashion the performance in the end examination is nearly the same. But the
difference is identified during the course end survey and viva-voce as a part of semester
end examination and is shown in Figure 2.14.
Similarly, the course IT 6051: Computer Vision Lab use both challenge lab method and
analyze data, methods. In general the experiments given to the students in challenging
way yielded good skill set for the students. Some experimentation part in computer
vision lab deals with analyzing and interpreting data. Sample experiments in this fashion
are given below.
1. Apply Gaussian smoothening in OpenCV on the image with varies values and analyse the blurring

Finally, the PO assessment is evaluated with the following equation.

PO Assessment =
( )


It is evident that the students ability in AY 2012-13 to design experiment has improved
consistently by having a challenge based laboratory style. It is not the intent to say that
the structured experiments does not meet the CO but implementing Student designed
Inquiry based and challenge based laboratories can serve as models to help students
develop the basic skills as well as the basis for more complex experimentation.
However, the design of experiments, a very high-level skill, requires several
opportunities for practice and a variety of laboratory experiments. Hence, in our
courses we are trying to have more open-ended experiments.
In summary, considering the various courses of the program it is evident that the
student is able to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret
data. Also, acquire all the higher level of practical skills. The survey reports aggregate
leads to 72% which can be retrieved that the CO and there by PO is attained but it is
necessary to take more initiations and innovations in conducting these courses in future
years.

Program Outcome 9: An ability to function effectively individually and on teams, including
diverse and multidisciplinary, effectively individually and on teams.
Team work has always been common element in engineering learning. This PO is
evaluated by developing the professional skills which includes responsible teamwork,
creativity and communication skills with professional and to prepare them for the
complex actual work environment and for life-long learning. The attainment of these can
be accessed through the tabulated courses that are part of the curriculum using direct
and indirect assessment tools.
Laboratory experiments and home assignments are conducted for the courses IT 6051
and IT 6052.These laboratory exercises are complex and are generally entailed
coordinated planning and execution. Teams of approximately five students are formed
to accomplish the assigned laboratory task. The predefined rubric is used to assess these
courses. From the result, it is observed there is good team work among all the team
members which is shown in Figure 2.27.
The rubric considers planning, sharing, listening, and other aspects of team work. As
appropriate, findings from course end survey, graduate survey and alumni surveys and
discussions were compiled to determine how well graduates are performing relative to
this outcome. The assessments for all students in the program were collected and
analyzed with a focus on individual work and on teams to accomplish common goals.

Program Outcome 10: An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
The ability of the students to communicate effectively is assessed regularly during the
program through various courses. The communication abilities are broadly categorized
into oral and written communication skills. Precisely, these abilities are assessed over
the tabulated courses during the program using appropriate assessment tools for each
course. In addition to these courses, these abilities are also assessed by the faculty in
other courses when students present the seminars and write the home assignments.
Measurements considered under this section to assess the PO are:
Number of students participated in various extracurricular activities like
Workshops, Seminars, Paper Presentations, and Technical Quiz etc.
Number of students participated in entrance examinations like TOFEL, IELTS etc
At the end of every academic year annual report is developed where the statistics of
students who have participated in professional bodies/ student
chapters/workshops/seminars/conferences/paper presentations/internships/industry
visit/TOFEL/GATE/IELTS etc. is prepared. A comparative statement with the previous
academic year is considered to indirectly assess the PO.
The communication abilities were assessed with student data which was collected
during the course work. Both course level assessment and FY 2003 oral assessment by
the faculty indicate that most of the students presentation and writing skills are good.
Some difficulty in answering questions precisely and accurately was observed. The Figure
2.29 lustrates these observations.

Program Outcome 12: An understanding of engineering and management principles
and apply these to ones own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage
projects
The ability of applying engineering and management principles as an individual, team
member and team head to manage projects is assessed by the activities done on time,
and according to specifications. The students are encouraged to perform individual
projects or group projects.
Abilities of the students are assessed using the rubrics. Students are assessed by the
internship projects inside/outside college. The understanding of engineering and
management principles abilities are assessed by the course IT 6003 in the curriculum
and thus is a logical place to assess program management skills of graduating
students. IT7053 and IT8052 reflects all aspects of managing a firm in a competitive
environment, it requires students to exercise program management skills to ensure all
components are accomplished in an effective and timely manner. The observations are

2.4. Use of assessment results towards improvement of programme (30)
2.4.1. Indicate how results of assessment used for curricular improvements (5)
(Articulate with rationale the curricular improvements brought in after the review of the attainment of
POs)
By analyzing the results of program outcome assessment in terms of direct and indirect
assessments, necessary actions are recommended to improve the program curriculum.
After each semester, faculty analyzed and evaluated the collected data from each
course and from all other sources(surveys).
The Module coordinators discuss the results with faculty to identify the need for
improvement. Prepare an action plan accordingly.
Once the action has been completed, data for that performance indicator should again
be collected, analyzed, and evaluated by the program assessment committee to see the
performance.
This process continues until the performance improve to the target value
The results are discussed with Department Advisory Board
The same procedure is followed for alumni surveys, employer surveys, rubrics etc.

2.4.2. Indicate how results of assessment used for improvement of course delivery
and assessment (10)
(Articulate with rationale the curricular delivery and assessment improvements brought in after the
review of the attainment of POs)

With the implementation of specified delivery methods (M1..M8 from 2.2.2), the
effectiveness of the courses is enhanced.

2.4.3. State the process used for revising/redefining the POs (15)
(Articulate with rationale how the results of the evaluation of POs have been used to review/redefine
the POs in line with the Graduate Attributes of the NBA.)
Figure 2.40 Illustrates the process of revising/redefining existing program outcomes.
The need for revise / redefine of existing Pos is identified with the help of the
assessment results of PO attainment from direct/indirect assessment methods.
The improvement of PO attainment is considered in three possible phases : Curriculum,
Delivery methods/course outcomes and program outcomes.
For curriculum, the program coordinator initiates the process with the views of Module
coordinator. The Department advisory board notices the required changes and takes
approval with BOS
The module coordinator initiates the process to change delivery methods/course
outcomes in course assessment and discuss with program assessment committee
To improve the program performance, the Program Coordinator analyze the PO
assessment and attainment and discuss the necessary revise changes in existing Pos
with program assessment committee/department advisory board.

The mentors meet the students periodically and monitor their performance and
their activities. Guidance regarding the lagging issues is provided.
Occasionally proctor meeting with the parents is conducted based on the
requirement.

Professional Guidance:
The departments are well equipped with knowledgeable Human resources in the
form of members of faculty who by keeping themselves of developments offer
guidance to the prospective professionals in addition to the classroom teaching. The
Industry-institute Partnership cell and Entrepreneurship development cell have been
putting efforts in this direction
Career advancement:
The Training and Placement cell has been active not only in arranging campus
recruitment drives, but also offering awareness and training for the students
Course work:
Members of faculty handling different courses interact with students in clearing
all their Concept-oriented and test based mechanics of the respective courses.
The teachers after first of formative evaluation guide the students as far as
student-specific gray areas are concerned.
Lab-specific:
Each of the lab sessions are handled by 3 Teachers in order to have special care
for the students while experiments are being handled. A demonstrative
presentation is given by the teacher concerned before every experiment. The
Laboratory records are evaluated after the experiment is held. In other words,
there is active involvement of the members of faculty Pre-experiment stage, at
the time of experiment and after the experiment.

Table 7.9: Mentoring System Details

Efficiency of the System:
The mentoring system developed by the college has been proved to be effective
considering different parameters.
The involvement of students in the academics has been increased, like class work
attendance, paper presentations, presentation of models in exhibitions, participation in
cultural activities etc.
Because the number of students allocated to each of the mentor is limited to 20,
personal interaction on regular basis has been taken up.
Teachers are also becoming more responsive to the learner needs day by day which is
being reflected in the proctor diary maintained by the teacher.

7.2.3. Feedback analysis and reward / corrective measures taken, if any (5)

(Instruction: The institution needs to design an effective feedback questionnaire. It
needs to justify that the feedback mechanism it has developed really helps in
evaluating teaching and finally contributing to the quality of teaching).

A standard feedback questionnaire is collected from the students every mid-
semester course wise.

Feedback mechanism is a well organized system in the college.
The system of feedback collection is manual
Collected feedback is scrutinized by the head of department.
The feedback is quantified
All the parameters mentioned in the feedback form will be analyzed.
Ability of teaching with respect to each item and comprehensive ability of the
teachers will be analyzed
All the comments written by the students in the feedback forms will be communicated
to the respective faculty members along with their feedback levels to know their
strengths and weaknesses and to enhance their teaching skills.

skills.

Basis of reward / corrective measures, if any :
Faculty members who get average feedback below 3 on 1-5 scale are identified.
Those faculty members are given orientation lectures and special inputs by the
head of the department.
Also the faculty members who get average feedback of 4 or above 4 on 1-5 scale are
appreciated at the department level staff meetings.

Number of corrective actions taken in the last three years :

2011 12 : 16
2010 11 : 40
2009 10 : 58

Number of awards in :
2011 12 : 270
2010 11 : 395
2009 10 : 270

Justification: The questionnaire being administered on the students has 11 items
which cover the following questions.
1. Physical
2. Experiential
3. Overall perspective based
Thus the questionnaire based on the types of questions given above develops a
comprehensive analysis of the pedagogy process by the teacher.

7.2.4. Scope for self learning (5)

(Instruction: The institution needs to specify the scope for self learning / learning
beyond syllabus and creation of facilities for self learning / learning beyond
syllabus.)

204
The college developed an academic system which presents a curriculum which is having
flexibility without prejudice to the fundamentals of any subject which are required.
The curriculum offers courses like term paper (IT6054), mini project(IT 7053), major
project (IT8052) where the topics are self selected or based on guide suggestion. The
component of self learning is evaluated in these courses.
Every student has to submit a home assignment in every course which has been
evaluated for 5 marks. Some of these tasks are beyond syllabus to encourage out-
standing students to develop their self learning capabilities.
Some of the tasks in the lab courses (IT3041, IT4051, IT6051, IT6052) are challenge
based which has to be solved by the students on their own enhancing their skills.

The program planned weekly time table and facilities in such a way that the students
have space and time to explore and implement their ideas.
Computer Lab with well equipped and internet facility opened 24X7 for students.
Department library with sufficient number of volumes on core and application areas,
technology awareness journals are opened during college working hours.
Digital library is provided in central library where students can access all kinds of e-
journals.
Two afternoons in a week are planned to keep the faculty available for the students
to explore their ideas.
A state of art Research & Development laboratory is opened for the students to
develop applications and projects.

7.2.5. Generation of self-learning facilities, and availability of materials for

Provisions for improving Placements:

Offering more elective subjects in order to offer a wider perspective for the students to
choose from. On other hand, the students would get an opportunity to have exposure to
the emerging technologies.
Some of the students may even come to a clear understanding that such sub-areas exist
in their area of activity such they would visualize their career in those areas.
Electives from III year onwards are being offered as a positive step towards rationalized
Learner autonomy.
Introduction Student practice courses as an endeavour to make the students Rounded
Professionals which is a step towards crystallizing ones professional; objectives . 3
credits are introduced
Free slots in Elective list to accommodate changing industry requirement.
Innovative experiments
Mini projects and Term papers are introduced in order encourage positive
compartmentalization of learning and to offer simulated industrial operations.
In addition to all the above, teachers offer counselling individually or in small groups
Due to increase in the no. of campus placements there is a gradual fall in the no. of
students preferring for higher studies.
We are maintaining separate Career & Guidance cell in the library. There we are
maintaining competitive magazines and books for the GRE, GATE, TOFEL, IELTS, CAT and
year books for the use of Students.

Outcome:-

The students have been utilizing the infrastructural facilities and training offered
by the college pertaining to higher studies and with regard to mould their career. At this
207
juncture, it is to be submitted that because of the tremendous increase in the conduct
of campus interviews, the number of students appearing at GMAT, TOEFL, GRE, IELTS
etc., has come down considerably. Many of those students appearing at the said
examinations for executing higher studies abroad secured respectable ranges and scores
during the last 3 years
Our students have been faring well at GATE obtaining admission into PG courses
in Engineering at various prestigious institutions of Technical Education. Also, out
students registered successful performance in the competitive professional tests
organized by Andhra Pradesh State Corporations. The details of the students qualified in
the said examinations and the details pertaining to scores are available in the respective
department reports.

All the academic buildings have two or more entrances / exits. Fire fighting is
very essential where large gatherings are there of students. Labs are the places
where large number of students work with equipment carrying considerable
amount of current and having voltages.
To avoid damage to the equipment and to the furniture and students fire
fighting equipment should be placed at all the places where large gatherings
are expected.
These will help in saving lives, property from fire. To do fire fighting generally
fire fighting cylinders containing powder mixtures to emit CO

Sample PO Assessment

PO 10: An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.

Assessment Criteria:

PO (j.1): Oral and written communication shown by the students in curriculum

PO (j.2): Communication skills shown in extra-curricular activities

Assessment Process and tools:
PO (j.1)
The ability of the students to communicate effectively is assessed regularly during the program
through various courses. The communication abilities are broadly categorised into oral and written
communication skills. Precisely, these abilities are assessed over the following courses during the program
using appropriate assessment tools for each course. In addition to these courses, these abilities are also
assessed by the faculty in other courses when students present the seminars and write the home

PO (j.2)
Communication skills shown during the extra-curricular activities in addition to the curriculum are
considered taking in to consideration of the following:
.
Program level Statistics: (PLS)
Workshops and seminars participated in other institutions and our institute.
TOFEL/IELTS
Survey reports:
Exit Survey: After the end of the program
Alumni Survey: After one year of graduation
Employer Survey: After one year of graduation

Measurements considered under this section to assess the PO are:
Number of students participated in various extracurricular activities like Workshops,
Seminars, Paper Presentations, Technical Quiz etc.
Number of students participated in entrance examinations like TOFEL, IELTS etc

Program level statistics:
At the end of every academic year annual report is developed where the statistics of students who
have participated in professional bodies/ student chapters/workshops/seminars/conferences/paper
presentations/internships/industry visit/TOFEL/GATE/IELTS etc. is prepared. A comparative statement with
the previous academic year is considered to indirectly assess the PO

296
Survey reports:
Exit survey: The IT program has developed a written questionnaire for graduating students called as Exit
Survey. This has to be submitted by all the graduating students. The students feedback data is used to
help identify any emerging trends in either a positive or a negative direction. The survey questions related
to this PO are as follows:

How much effective are you able to communicate your ideas to others either
oral/written/presentation?
Do you observe your communication skills are improved after your graduation
course?
Alumni Survey: The alumni survey is a written questionnaire which alumni are asked to complete. Data will
be collected after one year of graduation. The data will be analyzed and used in continuous improvement.
The survey questions related to this PO are as follows:
How well has your graduate education helped you to write a technical document?
Are you comfort in presenting documents and power points at your
company/institute?

Employer Survey: The employer survey is a written questionnaire which employers of the programs
graduates are asked to complete. The survey questions related to this PO are as follows:
Can our graduate effectively communicate ideas and technical information?
How often do you select our student to communicate with customers?
Assessment Analysis:
The communication abilities were assessed with student data which was collected during the
course work. Both course level assessment and FY 2003 oral assessment by the faculty indicate that most of
the students presentation and writing skills are good. Some difficulty in answering questions precisely and
accurately was observed. The figure 1 illustrates these observations

297

Figure 2. Assessment for Technical English and Communication Skills Courses

In IT 3052 some difficulties were observed in graduates with respect to group discussions and
individual communications.
The necessary actions were taken to overcome the identified weaknesses by inviting external bodies
to give appropriate practices.
The students performance in the course IT 6054 was evaluated along five dimensions with Table 1
rubric. The first three are mainly concerned with the individual student's oral skills and how well the student
relates to the audience. The fourth and fifth evaluate the students writing skills. Each of these dimensions is
assigned a score. The figure 2 gives the Term Paper assessment results analysis.

The course IT 7052 was evaluated the student performance along five dimensions. The first three are
mainly concerned with the individual student's presentation delivery, subject knowledge skills and how well
the student relates to the audience. The fourth and fifth evaluate the students writing skills. The figure 3

students were good (>85% scored 5s and 3s, <5% scored 1s). In the oral assessment, students
performed well on two dimensions, some weakness were apparent in subject knowledge (>5%
scored 1s and <70% scored 5s and 3s). From figure 5, it was observed that most students were able
to perform acceptable performance on both oral and written communication for the academic year
2011-12. More than 70% of the students scored above level 3 and less than 12% of the students
scored below level 3in Mini Project. With the help of guest lectures and workshops students were
gained relevant subject knowledge and improved their performance in this course as compared to

Figure 4: Assessment analysis for Major Project course IT 8052
The students performance in IT 8052 was evaluated along six dimensions. The first three are mainly
concerned with the individual student's presentation skills, what types of visual aids were used to enhance the
presentation skills and how well the student relates to the audience. The fifth and sixth evaluate the students
writing skills in terms of content, clarity and reference section. The figure 4 gives the assessment results
analysis.

Presently with regarding to writing, two changes are to be included in IT 8052 to improve students
writing skills. The first activity will involve distribution of actual engineering reports followed by
good and bad characteristics of formatting or organization, clarity and content, and how these items
could be improved. The second activity will involve each team evaluating its own first major
submittal. This will be followed by a group discussion on what can be improved and how will
improve their subsequent submittals.

In addition, the number of students participated in various extracurricular activities like workshops,
paper presentations conducted at various institutions and our institute is collected at end of the each
academic year. This data is used for communication abilities assessment. Also, the number of students
appeared and qualified for TOEFL/IELTS entrance exams were used for the assessment of the outcome. The
assessment result analysis is shown in figure 8 and figure 9.

Experimental Design:

A company has two LANs, one in Chennai with 300 hosts and another one in Madurai
with 150 hosts. Could it be possible to connect those networks to the Internet using only
one Class C network addresses? Justify the answer. If the answer is positive, create a
network layout, assign IP addresses to every router and to one host in the network, and
specify the routing tables of all routers and the specified host.
You have 3 computers belonging to different networks. Configure them to be able to
access each other. Note: Use at least three routers, one for each internal network. Change
the IP Address to match the diagram below. Take note that you will need a fourth
network (a new network address!) for all the routers so that they can communicate with
one another .You can also use switches.
