1. Criteria II: Teaching Learning and Evaluation


Criteria II consists of the teaching practices used by the teachers, the competency and eligibility of
the teachers, evaluation of the effectives of teaching by assessing the learning of the students,
diversity of the students, w.r.t. Socio-economic backgrounds, localities, and how the Institution
caters and addresses their needs. This criterion also focuses on the usage of ICT and other innovative
measures incorporated in the teaching process in order to instigate the “thinking” and investigation
process in students. Criterion 2 is one of the main criteria, among the 7 criteria and holds
significant weightage. Hence it is important to score well in this criterion for a good over-all grade.
This criterion includes various key aspects, for thorough evaluation. The key aspects of Criterion II
are:

Criterion 2: Affiliated/Constituent Colleges
Campus.Technology 2018

2.2.1 The institution assesses the learning levels of the students, after admission and
organizes special Programs for advanced learners and slow learners (30) – Qualitative

The word limit is 500 and must not exceed the limit.

It is important for every Institute to provide adequate support for both fast and slow learners,
and the methods used for assessment and the support given to each category of students needs
to be mentioned.

Pointers to a good answer

 Criteria for admissions if any


 Bridge course for all students
 Teachers assess learning levels of students by direct and indirect methods and
categorize them as slow and advanced learners
 Remedial coaching for slow learners outside class hours.
 Peer to peer teaching is encouraged to help the slow learners get comfortable
 Extended library hours and support for both slow and advanced learners
 Advanced learners get opportunities to work with faculties on projects etc.
 Advanced learners get to take student seminars

Example – The Institute has an admission policy which takes in ranks only lesser than 2500 obtained
by students in CET. The students after admissions undergo a bridge course, which is for 10
consecutive days before the commencement of regular classes. This is to help the students from
different backgrounds to be at par with the other students.

Once the classes commence, the teachers evaluate the students based on direct assessment, such as
internal assessments, through assignments, tests, etc., and also through indirect assessment such as
their confidence, practical classes, group projects etc. Based on this, they categorize the students as
slow learners and fast learners, to ensure that both set of students get the adequate support from
the Institution.

The teachers conduct remedial coaching outside class hours for the slow learners to help them cope
with the studies. These classes are held as and when necessary and when appropriate according to
the teacher. They are also encouraged to talk to the teachers about any doubts they have without
hesitation to help them be clear about the subject. The advanced learners are given support in
various ways such as they are given opportunities to take part in various fests and also to work with
the faculty in their projects which is advanced to their syllabus. They also give student seminars and
peer-learning and discussions are encouraged. The library is open on every day of the year with fixed
timings and is easily accessible to students.

2.5.3 Mechanism to deal with examination related grievances is transparent, time- bound
and efficient (10) Qualitative

The word limit is 500 and must not exceed the limit.

Pointers for a good answer


 Explanation of the steps involved in the grievance redressal process.
 Documentation related to the same.
 Any committee such as Examinations Grievance redressal committee if any, and their
meeting minutes and the working and the composition.

Example - the different exam related grievances are registered and handled differently depending
on the type of grievance and the level of seriousness of the grievance.
The most common type of grievance is the grievance related to the marks, where the students are
not satisfied with the marks they have got and have some clarifications. The faculty discusses the
question paper along with the answers and most of the queries are resolved in this process as the
students get more clarity. This is resolved at the faculty level, where the faculty listens to the
grievance and resolves it immediately. This kind of grievance is usually resolved within a short time.
Some grievances related to hall ticket, or the examinations itself, are taken up by the principal and
dean examination and to address the issues, if any, immediately with concerned stake holders.
The Institute has a Grievance Cell, which usually takes care of the grievances according to the
Institution’s Policy. Every issue will be resolved in 4 steps:
1. Collection – the issue is collected/conveyed by the student and made a note of in the college
and an appropriate way to solve the issue is formulated.
2. Discussion – the issue is discussed with the respective stakeholders with whom it is
concerned and a fair and bias-free solution is formulated.
3. Action taken – the actions agreed upon in the previous steps is put into place and insured
that it is implemented.
4. Disposed – after successful completion of the action implementation, the issue is then
dispatched.
