 SUGGESTIONS FOR FACULTY

 Faculty should keep track of the students with low attendance and counsel them
regularly.
 The course coordinator will arrange to communicate the short attendance (as per UPES
policy) cases to the students and their parents monthly.
 Topics covered in each class should be recorded in the table of RECORD OF CLASS
TEACHING (Suggested Format).
 Internal assessment marks should be communicated to the students twice in a semester.
 The file will be audited by respective IQAC members for theory as well as for lab as per
schedule.
 The faculty is required to maintain these files for a period of at least three years.
 This register should be handed over to the head of department, whenever the faculty
member goes on long leave or leaves the Colleges/University.
 For labs, continuous evaluation format (break-up given in the guidelines for result
preparation in the same file) should be followed.
 The department should monitor the actual execution of the components of continuous
lab evaluation regularly.
 Instructor should maintain record of experiments conducted by the students in the lab
weekly.
 Instructor should promote students for self-study and to make concept diary, due
weightage in the internal should be given under faculty assessment for the same.
 Course outcome assessment: To assess the fulfilment of course outcomes two different
approaches have been decided. Degree of fulfillment of course outcomes will be
assessed in different ways through direct assessment and indirect assessment. In Direct
Assessment, it is measured through quizzes, tests, assignment, Mid-term and/or End-
term examinations. It is suggested that each examination is designed in such a way that
it can address one or two outcomes (depending upon the course completion). Indirect
assessment is done through the student survey which needs to be designed by the faculty
(sample format is given below) and it shall be conducted towards the end of course
completion. The evaluation of the achievement of the Course Outcomes shall be done
by analyzing the inputs received through Direct and Indirect Assessments and then
corrective actions suggested for further improvement.
 At the completion of the course, course attainment and other documents should be
shared with the program coordinator for computation of Program attainment.
 At the completion of the course Faculty members are suggested to share the innovative
teaching techniques along with the course plan (format provided by IQAC).
 Faculties are encouraged to share the master/expert classes evidence (as per the event
report format)
 Faculties are also encouraged to include MOOCs,,SWAYAM any other online content
and share the evidence of MOOCs courses /online courses referred (as per the event
report format).
 Faculties are encouraged to share the evidence related to interventions or initiatives
focusing the unique/slow and Fast Leaners along with Course Completion files.
