Preliminaries

• Course Outcome (CO)

• Course outcomes are statements that describe significant and essential learning that learners have achieved, and can reliably demonstrate at the end of a course or program.

• In other words, course outcomes identify what the learner will know and be able to do by the end of a course or program.

• Program Outcome (PO)

• Program Outcomes (POs) are narrower statements that describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation.

Preliminaries (contd.)

• CO-PO Mapping

• Each course outcome should be mapped to achieve the program outcomes

• At the beginning of each semester, module leader will set the CO-PO mapping and relationships between the assessment tools (e.g. Midterm, Semester

Final)

• The mapping should be mapped according to the level of correlation

• Low = 1, Moderate = 2 and High = 3

• Assessment Tools

• Only Midterm (25) and Semester Final (40) marks are considered for CO-PO Attainments.

Work Flow

ML will set the CO-PO Mapping

ML will set the Midterm &

Semester Final Questions

ML will circulate the CO-PO Excel to

the section teachers after

modifying according to the

question

Each Section Teacher will input

students’

information and question-wise marks & Send it

back to the ML

ML will calculate the CO-PO Attainments

ML will create Course File and Report for each

semester

Tasks of Module Leaders

• Inputs:

• Course Credentials (Semester & Year, Course Code, Course Title, level & term, Section, No. of Students, Module Leader (ML) Initial, Threshold (e.g. 50%)) in cell B7 to B14. (Fig. 1)

• List of students Student ID and Name, staring from cell A20 and B20 (Fig. 2)

7

Fig. 2

Tasks of Module Leaders (contd.)

• Inputs:

• CO-Question Matrix (Fig. 3)

• Input CO-wise marks in the marks in cell I9 to I13 and J9 to J13

• Number of Questions in Midterm and Semester Final

• In cell C17 to H17 (add or delete columns, if needed)

• CO Mapping for each question

• In cell C18 to H18 (add or delete columns, if needed)

• Assigned marks for each question (marked red Fig. 4)

• In cell C19 to H19 (add or delete columns, if needed)

Fig. 3

Tasks of Section Teachers

• Inputs:

• Each section teachers (including Module Leaders) will input student-wise question-wise marks

CO Attainment Calculation

• Put equation in CO-wise marks columns (e.g. CO1 marks (%), CO2 marks (%) etc.)

• For Example, CO1 is attained from Midterm (Q1 and Q2) and Final (Q1)

• Total marks for CO1 is calculated in CO-Question Matrix (see Fig. 3)

• CO1 Marks (%) = ( ^3+𝑁+2

6+3+4 ) X 100% = ⁵

13 X 100% = 38%

• Therefore,

• CO1 marks (%) = SUM(C20,D20,J20)/K9

CO Attainment Calculation (contd.)

• Based on the percentage the CO1 Met(Y/N) column will be updated.

• If CO marks percentage is greater than or equal to the Threshold (cell B14), it will be “Y”, otherwise “N”

• CO1 Met (Y/N) = IF(Q20>B14,"Y","N")

• CO2 Met (Y/N) = IF(S20>B14,"Y","N") and so on.

Other Excel Equations

• No. of Students Attempted

• =COUNT(C20:C60), depends on the no. of students

• Threshold Marks for each question

• = C19*0.5 (50% of each question)

• No. of Students who got >=50%

• =COUNTIF(C20:C60, ">=" &C29)

• Percentage of students who got >=50%

• = (C30/B12) =(𝑁𝑜.𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑤ℎ𝑜 𝑔𝑜𝑡≥50%

𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑜.𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 ) X 100%

• No. of Students achieved CO

• =COUNTIF(R20:R60,"Y")

• Percentage of Students achieved CO

• = (R28/B12) =(𝑁𝑜.𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑎𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑑 𝐶𝑂

𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑜.𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 ) X 100%

• CO-wise Result

• =IF(R29>=B14, "Y", "N") (If the percentage of students achieved CO is greater than or equal to threshold, then show “Y”, otherwise “N”)

• Overall CO Attainment

PO Attainment Calculation

• At the beginning of each semester, module leader will set the CO-PO mapping and relationships between the assessment tools (e.g. Midterm, Semester

Final)

• The mapping should be mapped according to the level of correlation

• Low = 1, Moderate = 2 and High = 3

• PO attainment calculation is performed after getting the CO attainment results (Y/N).

13

PO Attainment Calculation (contd.)

• CO results will be coming from the same equation used for CO attainments

• PO1 percentage= (

𝑆𝑈𝑀(𝑃𝑂1 𝑙𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑠 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ 𝐶𝑂 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑙𝑡 𝑖𝑠 "𝑌")

𝑆𝑈𝑀 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑃𝑂 𝑙𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑠

)𝑋 100%

• For Example,

• PO1 percentage = ³⁺³

3+3 𝑋 100% = 100% (both CO1 and CO2 result is “Y”)

• PO4 percentage = ³

3+3 𝑋 100% = 50% (Only CO3 result is “Y”)

PO Attainment Calculation (contd.)

• PO attained calculation

• If the percentage of PO Attainment is greater than or equal to threshold (50%), then show “Y”, otherwise “N”.

Creating Course File

• Module Leaders have to create course file for his/her course

• Create one course file combining all section

• Course file should be maintained

• hard copy and

• soft copy (PDFs)

• The Top Page for the Hard Copy Course File can be found in the OBE

Template Folder in Google Drive

Creating Course File (Hard Copy)
