Examination
Continuous Evaluation (CIE) system at the institutional level
CIE being an important component of the semester system is considered as very essential to encourage faculty and students to work systematically towards achieving Vision, Mission and Goals of the institution and Outcomes of a particular course. Accordingly students are evaluated continuously through the stages of Diagnostic, Formative and Summative Assessment Methods. The subject teachers, class teachers and mentors assess the skills of students at various levels before finally allotting the internal marks based on the frame work of evaluation set by Examination Committee of college and Bangalore University guidelines.
Diagnostic Assessment Level:
At this level, an effort is made to assess the learning ability and knowledge base of the students by classifying them as slow learners and advanced learners mainly based on their performance in previous qualifying exams, after which each department conducts bridge course during regular class hours as per time table and all the students are made mandatorily to attend and post bridge course assessment test is conducted to measure the effectiveness of bridge course and the performance level of students.
Formative Assessment:
It is an ongoing assessment done for all students during the regular teaching hours to give instant feedback to students regarding their learning levels based on learning outcomes measured through various methods. Every teacher applies techniques like Oral Quiz, Group Discussions, Power Point Presentations, Role Plays, Surprise Tests, Verbal Tests, Mini Projects, Case Study Analysis, Work Book Assignments etc., to assess the ability of students in aspects related to the prescribed syllabus. It is also considered for allotting internal marks of students.
