A software is developed indegineously for transparent faculty appraisal by recording and analyzing feedback taken periodically from students, self, peers and Department Heads The faculty with good feedback will also be appreciated which will further strengthen their commitment to the teaching learning process. 2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms How does the institution ensure that the stakeholders of the institution especially students and faculty are aware of the evaluation processes? A handbook that includes the academic regulations, course structure and detailed syllabus is provided to all the students at the time of admission and it is also available in the college website, library and in every department The Stakeholders of the college which include students, faculty members and parents are informed about evaluation process followed by the institution through the general instructions mentioned in the prospectus of the college. The faculty will be appraised about the evaluation process of the institute by the Head of Department at the time of joining the institute. Each department organizes faculty meeting at regular intervals in which all the faculty are made aware of the evaluation process. The notifications received from the University will promptly be sent to the departments in order to be conveyed to students and faculty The students are also briefed about the evaluation system in the institute during the time of Orientation Programme What are the major evaluation reforms of the university that the institution has adopted and what are the reforms initiated by the institution on its own? Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Anantapur has a tradition of following good old and time-proven methodology for the evaluation of students. 30 Marks have been provided for Internal Assessment and 70 marks are to be assessed through external examinations. In the case of practicals, 25 marks are internally assessed (continuous assessment) and the rest 50 marks are assessed through external exam. The University has introduced the following reforms for better evaluation. Photo copy of answer sheet A student applying for photostat copy of the answer script shall apply for the same in the prescribed application form along with a fee of Rs. 1500/- (Rupees 83 P a g e

85 Fifteen Hundred only). If the student finds that any part of the paper has not been corrected or any total mistake, then the student can bring this to the notice of the Director of Evaluation for the required modifications. Challenge valuation A student applying for challenge valuation shall pay a fee of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only). The Challenge valuation shall be carried out by an expert not less than an Associate Professor Cadre, in the Presence of the Director of Evaluation. Neither the student nor his parents/representative shall be permitted to be present during the valuation. However, the photo copies of the valued answer script (Before revaluation and after revaluation) shall be given to the student. If the increase in the marks after reevaluation is equal to or more than 15% of the maximum external marks of that particular examination, 80% of the challenge valuation fee paid by the student shall be returned to the student and marks obtained after challenge valuation shall be treated as final. If the variation of marks after challenge valuation is less than 15% of the maximum external marks of that particular examination, then the higher of the original valuation marks and the challenge valuation marks shall be treated as the final marks. In such case no money shall be returned to the student. Additional spot centres In addition to the spot centre at JNTUA, Ananthapuramu, the University has set up additional spot centres at selected reputed institutions for administrative convenience, so that the results can be declared within a stipulated time. In this connection, our Instituition has also been selected as one of the additional spot centres. Examination Management System The University has been using a software for managing the Examination related matters like examination registration of the students in affiliated colleges, uploading of internal marks etc which simplified the total process of registration etc. The following are the various evaluation reforms initiated by the institution on its own Slip tests and assignments are regularly conducted to assess the learning capabilities of students Periodical Project reviews are also carried out regularly to monitor the progress of students in carrying out the projects Mini projects are also designed for project based learning How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation reforms of the university and those initiated by the institution on its own? The college strongly believes in continuous evaluation system (day-to-day evaluation) which is implemented effectively in all laboratories for the practical work. Viva-voce is conducted after each experiment done by the students and marks are awarded for the experimental work and viva every week. The faculty are informed to set the question paper as per the Blooms taxonomy and to set the question paper such that a balance is maintained among the tough, easy and average questions. The answer 84 P a g e

86 scripts are to be evaluated as per the scheme of evaluation, which is prepared by the faculty concerned. The following is the cognitive level that is being maintained while setting the Question paper Cognition level LOCQ IOCQ HOCQ % distribution of marks recommended 20-30% 40-50% 30-40% LOCQ Lower order cognitive questions IOCQ- Intermediate order cognitive questions HOCQ Higher order cognitive questions. Care is also ensured that the marks obtained by the students fit the normal distribution curve (Bell Curve). The IQAC of the institution will monitor the evaluation system of internal examination Provide details on the formative and summative assessment approaches adopted to measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have positively impacted the system. Formative assessment The students are given regular assignments and tutorial problems on the topics covered at the end of each unit of the subject. The students are also evaluated based on the marks obtained in the two internal examinations of a semester. Each internal assessment test carries 30 marks (objective for 10 marks and subjective for 20 marks). Remedial classes are also being conducted for the students who get less than 50% of the marks. Summative Assessment The students are also evaluated at the end of the semester by their performance in the university examinations conducted by the University for 70 Marks. In order to clear a subject, a student should obtain a minimum of 35% of the marks in the final examination and a total of 40 marks in internal and external put together. The students who get more than 70% of the total marks will be placed in First class with Distinction, between 60% and 70% will be placed in First class, between 50% and 60% will be placed in Second class, between 40% and 50% will be placed in Pass class. The formative assessment helped the students in gaining more knowledge and thus made them to perform well in the campus recruitment process. For example 109 students were placed in the companies like Tech Mahindra, Value Labs, Infosys, etc., in the academic year Detail on the significant improvements made in ensuring rigor and transparency in the internal assessment during the last four years and weightages assigned for the overall development of students (weightage for behavioral aspects, independent learning, communication skills etc). 85 P a g e

87 Complete transparency is being maintained by the institute in terms of internal assessment. The criterion adopted by the institute is as directed by the University. All the students are familiarized about the transparency in internal assessment through curriculum books and circulars. Each theory subject is evaluated through internal and external exams. As per the regulations, internal and externals are conducted for 30 and 70 marks respectively. Two internal examinations are conducted for every semester. The internal examination is so designed that they test not only the subject knowledge of the student, but also his/her analytical and problem solving skills. Each internal assessment through the tests carries 30 marks (objective for 10 marks and subjective for 20 marks). Independent learning and behavioral aspects of the Student are assessed through the Mini project, which he/she does at the end of III year II semester. In the IV year II semester, the students have to give a technical seminar which comprises of 50 marks that tests their communication skills and also a report has to be submitted on the seminar. The project work is done by a group of 3-4 students in the IV year II semester and the students are encouraged to take real time problems. It carries 60 marks for internal and 140 marks for external assessment. The summer training and project helps the students enhance their interpersonal skills, leadership qualities and independent learning abilities. Transparency in the evaluation is maintained by returning the valued internal examination scripts to the students to enable them check the marks and to draw the attention of the teacher to any discrepancy, if any, either in the awarding marks or totaling of marks What are the graduate attributes specified by the college/affiliating university? How does the college ensure the attainment of these by the students? A graduate when he completes his engineering course is expected to possess 1.

The graduate attributes (Program Outcomes) are assessed through direct method and indirect method. The direct method involves the assessment of student s performance through assignments/ Mid exams/ Mini projects/ Seminars/Project work/external examinations. The indirect method involves the assessment of the student s performance by taking the feed back from all the stake holders (Employees, Parents, Students). Attainment of graduate attributes: Attainment Levels set by the Department for Direct Survey: Attainment Level 1: Less than 50% students scoring more than the Department Average Percentage of Marks Attainment Level 2: 50% to 55% students scoring more than the Department Average Percentage of Marks Attainment Level 3: 55% and more students scoring more than the Department Average Percentage of Marks Attainment Levels set by the Department in Indirect Survey: Attainment Level 1: Less than 75% survey obtained from Students Attainment Level 2: Greater than 75% and less than 80% survey obtained from Students Attainment Level 3: Greater than 80% survey obtained from Students Overall Attainment in Direct Survey: Weightage to University Examination: 70% Weightage to Internal Assessment: 30% Overall Attainment including Direct and Indirect Survey: Weightage to Direct Survey: 90% 87 P a g e

89 Weightage to Indirect Survey: 10% What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation both at the college and University level? At college level: The answer scripts of internal examinations are shown to the students after evaluation to bring out discrepancies, if any, to the notice of teacher concerned, and the necessary corrections will be made. If student is not satisfied with the marks awarded in any subject/laboratory after bringing it to the notice of the teacher concerned, he/she may represent the same to the Principal through the HOD concerned. At University level: The student is permitted to apply for Challenge valuation in theory subjects by paying the prescribed fee of 10,000 /- to the University, if he feels that the valuation has not been done properly. If the increase in the marks after revaluation is equal to or more than 15% of the maximum external marks of that particular examination, 80% of the challenge valuation fee paid by the student shall be returned to the student and marks obtained after challenge valuation shall be treated as final. If the variation of marks after challenge valuation is less than 15% of the maximum external marks of that particular examination, then the higher of the original valuation marks and the challenge valuation marks shall be treated as the final marks. In such case no money shall be returned to the student. The University will take up all such applications and re-evaluate the scripts by competent subject teachers not less than the cadre of an Associate professor. The student is also eligible to apply for Re counting in theory subjects by paying the prescribed fee to the University. A student applying for photostat copy of the answer script shall apply for the same in the prescribed application form along with a fee of Rs. 1500/- (Rupees Fifteen Hundred only). If the student finds that any part of the paper has not been corrected or there is any total mistake, then the student can bring this to the notice of the Director of Evaluation for the required modifications Student performance and Learning Outcomes Does the college have clearly stated learning outcomes? If yes give details on how the students and staff are made aware of these? Yes. The learning outcomes for each subject have been defined clearly and have been made aware to the staff and students, through course files and also the students are briefed about the learning outcomes of each subject on the first day of the classes after semester break. Also they are published in the college website which can be accessed by all the stake holders. Each department prepares learning outcomes for each subject, basing on the criteria mentioned by National Board of Accreditation. Every course will be mapped the following outcomes. Engineering Knowledge Problem analysis 88 P a g e

Provide an analysis of the student s results/achievements (Programme/course wise for last four years) and explain the differences if any and patterns of achievement across the programmes/courses offered. Generally the internal evaluation of the students is being done through 2 internal examinations. Every student will be intimated his/her marks of internal examination as the scripts are distributed in the class. Care is taken such that the marks are also communicated to the parents through post/sms. The attendance details are being displayed in the notice boards for every fortnight and the students are counseled by the mentors, if the attendance is less than 75%. These details are also being communicated to the parents. The college has online software, where the daily attendance and the performance of the students in internal and external examinations will be posted, which will facilitate the students and parents to track the progress. Parents are also intimated through messages if their ward has been absent to the college. The details of internal marks and monthly attendance of the students are also being displayed in the notice board. The students are counseled to perform better in the University exams, to be regular to the college through the mentoring system which is in place in the college The following are the details of student s results of various courses over the years Course B.Tech (ECE) B.Tech (EEE) B.Tech (CSE) B.Tech (ME) B.Tech (CE) MBA M.Tech(DECS) M.Tech (EPS) M.Tech (CSE) How are the teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the institution structured to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcomes? 89 P a g e

91 The following are the various strategies adopted by the institution to achive the intended learning outcomes Teaching Strategies: At the beginning of each semester course file of every subject is being prepared along with detailed structured lesson plan incorporating the various teaching-learning methods as per the need. Tutorials are also regularly conducted in various problematic subjects Regular assignments are also being given to the students and care is ensured that all the students submit the assignments in due course of time Seminars, Quiz Competitions, debates are regularly being organized through the departmental associations E learning meterials like webinars and NPTEL are regularly employed to kepp the students abreast with the latest trends in technological development Training is also being provided as a part of learning to make the students Industry ready Learning Startegies: Mini Project Expos are regularly carried out in the college so as to bring out the creative skill of the students Regular Certification programmes are being conducted in the college for the benefit of students Assessment Strategies: The college regularly assesses the attainment of intended learning outcomes through Direct and Indirect Attainment and takes necessary actions to improve if any lapse is found Generally the direct attainment is measured through performance in internal and external examinations and Indirect attainment is measured through feedback from students, Alumni and also through Exit Interview What are the measures/initiatives taken up by the institution to enhance the social and economic relevance (student placements, entrepreneurship, innovation and research aptitude developed among students etc.) of the courses offered? The college takes all the measures to enchance social and economic relevance to the couses being offered. It encourages the students to design small prototypes which will be useful to the socity. Some of the innovative prototypes that the students have designed are as follows: Unmanned survilence air vehicle which can be used by the farmers and NDRF teams during natural calamities like floods, earthquakes to rescue people who are stranded under water and beneath the debris. Weather balloon (specifically a type of high altitude balloon) which carries instruments aloft to send back information on atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity and wind speed by means of a small, expendable measuring device called a radiosonde. Wireless Hover Craft Control which is a non wheeled vehicle that can hover over land as well as water easily using high powered fans and aerodynamic design. Design and fabrication of solar based crop cutter to assist the farmers for chopping of crops. 90 P a g e

92 Encouragement is also provided to the students to explore the possibility of entrepreneurship by providing necessary training. The Training and Placement Cell of the College looks after the various training programs to be conducted to the students so as to enable them become industry ready. Tech Mahindra, IBM, Alliance Global, Value Labs, RISE Corp, SSE, Winnou.com, Face etc are some of the companies that have visited the college for recruitment How does the institution collect and analyze data on student performance and learning outcomes and use it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning? The college has a systematic method for collecting and analyzing the data on student performance and achievement of learning outcomes. Direct and Indirect Assessment are employed to analyze the student performance and achievement of learning outcome The performance of student in internal and external examinations is analyzed and verified whether the learning outcome has been achieved or not In the Indirect assessment feedback is being collected from the students in the following format to assess the achievement of outcomes This feedback is analyzed and necessary steps are taken to improve if any PART B: EVALUATION OF COURSE OUTCOMES Have you understood the concept of demand side management for residential, commercial and industrial energy users and Obtained an over view of the different types of demand-side measures Can you depict how housekeeping and preventative maintenance in commerce and industry can be used to reduce the energy demand Can you describe energy auditing and routine data collection and monitoring and to indicate their benefits Can you outline information dissemination on demand-side management and obtain an overview of the major implementation challenges for DSM Programmers Have you understood the challenges facing the implementation of demand-side management Can you interpret the benefits of good reliable data collection for regular performance analysis, To a Very Great Extent To a Great Extent To a Moderate Extent To Some Extent Not at All Out of % 91 P a g e

The major reform that has happened in the area of Institutional academics is the shifting of educational model from Input out put based to Outcome based system. The main idea in the outcome based education lies in achieving the mission oriented Program Educational Objectives (PEOs), Program outcomes (POs), Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs) and Course outcomes through a structured process. In this process, a bottom up approach is being considered for incorporating flexibility to the curriculum. The Institution has developed and practices its extensive action plan for effective implementation of the curriculum through the following measures: Prior to the commencement of classes, individual lesson plans are prepared for each subject that is offered during the semester. Lecture notes are also prepared in advance and senior faculty contribute by rendering advice to the faculty about the notes, problems etc. The institution has formed communication channels among all the stakeholders to ensure that outcome based objectives of the curriculum are being achieved in the course of implementation. Once the academic session is in full swing and all the laid action plans are being followed, the college at various points takes stock of the effectiveness of these action plans. Also, the college ensures that during the course of implementation, the stated objectives of the curriculum are achieved through effective delivery and feedback control at departmental level. To implement this, various class tests, mid exams are conducted to monitor the outcomes of the syllabus. Systematic documentation is being maintained to review the outcomes of the curriculum through continuous evaluation. If at any step, the college realizes that the laid objectives are not being achieved; the college plans for a remedial action and strategies are devised to cover up the gaps through tutorial classes if any, in the delivery of the curriculum to ensure that it enables the college to achieve the stated objectives of the curriculum. 92 P a g e

94 2.6.7 Does the institution and individual teachers use assessment/evaluation outcomes as an indicator for evaluating student performance, achievement of learning objectives and planning? If yes provide details on the process and cite a few examples. Yes. The institution and individual teachers employ various assessment/evaluation outcomes as an indicator for evaluating student performance. Generally this type of assessment is being done through 2 methods 1. Direct Assessment 2. Indirect Assessment Direct Assesment: Performance in sessional exams Performance in End Semester Examination Laboratory tests Project Evaluation Indirect Assesment: Feedback from the students Exit Interview Survey Direct Assessment Tools: Sessional-This type of performance assessment is carried out during the internal examination sessions which are held twice a semester. Each and every sessional is focused on attaining the course outcomes. End Semester Examination-End Semester examination is a metric for assessing whether all the Course outcomes are attained or not. Examination is more focused on attainment of course outcomes through a descriptive mode. Laboratory tests: This assessment is carried out in the day to day evaluation of student s performance in the laboratories with respect to conduct of various experiments. Project Evaluation: Evaluation of the student based on the project work is also an important criterion for attainment of course outcomes. A rubric has also been employed in order to assess the students in terms of project work The following is an example of how each student performance is evaluated during his/her project work G.PULLAIAH COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY: KURNOOL Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering Evaluation of Project Work Name of the Student : Roll No: Rating Excellent Very Good Fair Poor Score Score Identificatio n of Problem Domain and Detailed Analysis Detailed and extensive explanation of the purpose and need of the project Good explanation of the purpose and need of the project Average explanation of the purpose and need of the project Moderate explanation of the purpose and need of the project 93 P a g e

The main objective of the institution is to prepare the student to succeed in competitive exams like GATE and Engineering Services. The performance of the students in this process is an indicator of whether the objective has been achieved or not. A considerable number of students have been qualified in GATE, which indicates that the objective is met to the required level. The performance of the student is also an indicator of whether the objective has been met or not. The institute constantly appears on the top position amongst the various engineering colleges affiliated to JNTUA in the pass percentage of students and this is a definite indicator that the objective has been met. Any other relevant information regarding Teaching-Learning and Evaluation which the college would like to include. The college ensures that all the policies/systems regarding the teaching learning processes such as class work review committee and student feed-back for teachers etc., are in place and are being scrupulously followed. 95 P a g e

247 1. Implementation of innovative methods in teaching & learning process 2. e-governance BEST PRACTICE -1 Title of the Practice: Implementation of innovative methods in teaching learning process Goal of the Practice: Driving the concepts home through project based learning approach Learning by doing Inculcating cognitive & computational thinking and programming capabilities Design and development of efficient and economical ways of solving real life problems Context: The current practice of paper based evaluation system in the middle and end of the semesters is not giving much scope to students to apply their concepts to develop a product or a service that solve a real life problem. There is a growing need for tools both hardware & software which will prompt the students to think innovatively and come up with the solutions that are time & cost effective Practice Students who build circuits in their very first year of engineering using electronics workbenches can design circuits to address practical problems by the time they reach final year. Programming has become an enigma for many engineering students. Using innovative software tools like programming workbench will motivate them to learn and apply code to solve practical problems Also, e-learning through Virtual labs, Youtube videos, MOOCS, TED lectures and other related sources make learning easy and pleasurable Evidence of success: More and more students participating in Coding and IoT design competitions. Students developing IT & Engineering products for solving existing problems or for new applications Problems encountered and Resources required. It takes a lot of time and effort to get acceptance of teachers & students to embrace new technologies. BEST PRACTICE -2 Title of the Practice: e- Governance Goal of the Practice: The goal of the practice is to provide effective and easy way to automate the functionalities of the Institute and to provide information about the students and staff to the stake holders by way of ECAP software and college website. ECAP software which is being used by our Institute provides various types of educational related services like maintaining attendance, internal marks, work load of staff members, leave history, mentoring data etc, thereby reducing human error and paper work. The 246 P a g e

248 college website provides information about the various departments of the institution, vision, mission, placement details, facilities provided etc. Context: Our institute has an intake of 540 UG students and 210 PG students every year and has a total strength of around 2500 students in the campus. To maintain the records of all these students manually is a huge task and there are chances of committing errors. Hence ECAP software is being used by our Institute to store information about various types of educational related services like maintaining attendance, internal marks, work load of staff members, leave history, mentoring data etc, thereby reducing human error and paper work. Practice: ECAP software is loaded with main features like Admissions, Academics, Correspondence, Library, Administration etc by which the details of attendance, internal marks, work load of staff members, leave history, back logs of students, mentoring data etc which can be accessed when necessary by both the staff as well as the student using their Login Id and Passwords. The access to the software can also be done through the institute website Evidence of Success The information regarding any student or staff can be accessed in minimum amount of time. The analysis of marks and attendance can also done easily. As the log-in access is also given to the parents, the parents are being able to access the information about attendance, marks etc of their wards in minimum amount of time. Effective management of resources. Interaction between the faculty and students has also increased. The information is stored centrally and no redundant data is stored. Problems encountered and Resources required There will be problem in accessing the data when the network is down. There is a chance of files getting corrupted. A separate high configuration server is to be allotted for this software.

288 Evaluative Report of Department of Mechanical Engineering Mechanical Engineering is one of the broadest and oldest of the engineering disciplines, extending across many technical specialties. Mechanical Engineering denotes a broad field that has to do with the generation and transmission of mechanical energy. Since this motive energy is often derived from heat, much of the work of mechanical engineers involves thermal energy. Similarly, since these processes need to be housed and the energy transmitted, mechanical engineering is also concerned with the structures in which such devices are housed, and with how they work and fail - mechanics, which is closely related with the process of deciding how to put these devices together - the act of design. Finally, it is necessary to evolve processes, by which these devices are to be constructed, which leads to the science of manufacturing. In addition to these tasks, the trend towards greater quality has seen a gradual move towards integration with sensors and automation, leading to the modern science of robotics. Department of Mechanical Engineering was established in the year 2013 with an intake of 60. The Department is known for its reputed faculty having expertise in diverse fields. Well qualified, experienced and dedicated faculty and committed supporting staff are the major strengths of the department. The department has also well-established laboratories with the latest equipment like CNC machines and 3D printing machines. The departmental major activities include teaching, research, and providing consultancy services to various organizations. It has the following well-equipped laboratories. Engineering Workshop Material Science & Engineering Lab Manufacturing Technology Lab Thermal Engineering Lab Heat Transfer Lab Machine Tools Lab CAD/CAM Lab Applied Mechanics Lab The faculty continues to strive hard by exploring new frontiers of knowledge, imparting the latest technical knowledge to the students. 1.
