1. INTRODUCTION
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 envisages the revision of the Choice Based
Credit System (CBCS) for instilling innovation and flexibility. It emphasizes on promoting
interdisciplinary studies, introducing new subjects, and providing flexibility in courses and fresh
opportunities for students. It also envisages setting up of facilitative norms for issues, such as credit
transfer, equivalence etc., and a criterion-based grading system that assesses student achievement
based on the learning goals for each programme.
The NEP document suggests several transformative initiatives in higher education. These include:
• Introduction of holistic and multidisciplinary undergraduate education that would help
develop all capacities of human beings - intellectual, aesthetic, social, physical, emotional,
ethical and moral - in an integrated manner; soft skills, such as complex problem solving,
critical thinking, creative thinking, communication skills; and rigorous specialization in a
chosen field(s) of learning.
• Adoption of flexible curricular structures in order to enable creative combinations of
disciplinary areas for study in multidisciplinary contexts in addition to rigorous
specialization in a subject
• Undergraduate degree programmes of either 3 or 4-year duration.
• The students are getting a chance to determine his/her own semester-wise academic load and
will be allowed to learn at his/her pace, to the extent possible.
• Increase in the number of choices of courses available to students and the students are getting
an opportunity to choose the courses of their interest from all disciplines.
• Multidisciplinary and holistic education with emphasizes on research, skill development and
higher order thinking,
• Promotion of innovation and employability of the student.
• Flexibility for the students to move from one institution to another as per their choice.
• Flexibility to switch to alternative modes of learning (offline, ODL, and online learning, and
hybrid modes of learning).
Outcome Based Education (OBE)
Undergraduate courses in Mathematics follow the Outcome-based Education (OBE)
framework. OBE is a system where all the parts and aspects of education are focused on the
outcomes of the course. The students take up courses with a certain goal of developing skills or
gaining knowledge and they have to complete the goal by the end of the course. Outcome-based
education affirms teachers as facilitators, rather than lecturers. In this model, teachers guide the
students and encourage them to develop their knowledge and skills. The undergraduate courses at
the Department of Mathematics, Sacred Heart College (Autonomous), Thevara provide a learning
approach in which students develop analytical ability, critical thinking and research acumen over
different situations.

faculty/ course coordinator offering the course.
v. FA refers to a wide variety of methods that teachers use to conduct in-process evaluations of
student comprehension, learning needs, and academic progress during a lesson, unit, module
or course. FA is to encourage students to build on their strengths rather than fixate or dwell on
their deficits. FA can help to clarify and calibrate learning expectations for both students. FA
will help students become more aware of their learning needs, strengths, and interests so they
can take greater responsibility over their own educational growth. FA will be prerogative of the
course faculty/ course coordinator based on specific requirement of the student.

course coordinator.
vii. Summative Assessments (SA) are used to evaluate student learning, skill acquisition, and
academic achievement at the conclusion of a defined instructional period- typically at the end
of a project, unit, module, course or semester. SA may be a class tests, assignments, or project,
used to determine whether students have learned what they were expected to learn. It will be
based on evidence, collected using single or multiple ways of assessment. The systematically
collected evidences should be kept in record by course faculty/ course coordinator and the
marks should be displayed on the college notice board/ other official digital platforms of the
college before the End Semester Evaluations.
viii. The method of SA will be as follows: (any one as decided by the course faculty/ course
coordinator)
a. Written test
b. Open book test
c. Laboratory report
d. Problem based assignments
e. Individual project report
f. Case study report
g. Team project report
h. Literature survey
i. Standardized test
j. Any other pedagogic approach specifically designed for a particular course by the
course faculty/ course coordinator.
ix. A student may repeat SA only if for any compulsive reason due to which the student could not
attend the assessment.
x. The prerogative of arranging a CCA lies with the course faculty/ course coordinator with the
approval of SHC-UGP Academic Committee based on justified reasons.
xi. The course faculty/ course coordinator shall be responsible for evaluating all the components
of CCA. However, the college may involve any other person (External or Internal) for
evaluation of any or all the components as decided by the Principal/Controller of Examinations
from time to time in case any grievances are raised.
xii. Written tests shall be precisely designed using a variety of tools and processes (e.g., constructed
responses, open-ended items, multiple-choice), and the students should be informed about the
evaluation modalities before the commencement of the course.
xiii. The course faculty may provide options for students to improve their performance through
continuous assessment mechanism.
xiv. There shall be theory and practical examinations at the end of each semester.
xv. Regarding evaluation, one credit may be evaluated for 25 marks in a semester; thus, a 4-credit
course will be evaluated for 100 marks; 3-credit courses for 75 marks and 2-credit courses for
50 marks.
xvi. All examinations will be conducted by the College and will be evaluated at the College itself.
xvii. Individual Learning Plans (ILPs) and/ or specific assessment arrangements may be put in place
for differently abled students. Suitable evaluation strategies including technology assisted
examinations/ alternate examination strategies will be designed and implemented for
differently abled students.
Practical Examination
26
i. The end semester practical examination will be conducted and evaluated by the
institution.
ii. There shall be a CCA for practical courses conducted by the course faculty/ course
coordinator.
iii. The scheme of evaluation of practical courses will be as given below:
Components for the Evaluation of Practical Courses Weightage
iv. Those who have completed the CCA alone will be permitted to appear for the ESE.
v. For grievance redressal purpose, the university shall have the right to call for all the
records of CCA.
vi. Duration of Examination: Questions shall be set as per the defined Outcome .The
duration of the examinations shall be as follows.
Mode Time (in Hours)
Written Examination 2
Multiple Choice 1.5

Evaluation of Internship
The evaluation of internship shall be done by a committee constituted by the Department Council. The
scheme of CCA and ESE is given below:
Components of Evaluation of Marks for Internship 2
Weightage
Internship Credits/ 50 Marks
CCA 30% 15
ESE 70% 35
The department council may decide any mode for the completion of the Internship. If in case
evaluation is not specified in any of the selected internship programme, institution can adopt a
proper evaluation method as per the weightage specified in the table above.
Letter Grades and Grade Points
Mark system is followed for evaluating each question. For each course in the semester, letter grade and
grade point are introduced in 10-point indirect grading system as per guidelines given below,
i. The Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) is computed from the grades as a measure of
the student’s performance in a given semester. The SGPA is based on the grades of the
27
current term, while the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is based on the grades
in all courses taken after joining the programme of study.
ii. Based on the marks obtained, the weighted grade point will be mentioned in the student’s
grade cards.
Percentage of Marks (Both
Letter Grade Grade Internal & External Marks put Class
Point together)
O (Outstanding) 10 95% and above First Class
A+ (Excellent) 9 85% and above but below 95% with
A (Very good) 8 75% and above but below 85% Distinction
B+ (Good) 7 65% and above but below 75%
B (Above average) First Class
6 55% and above but below 65%
C (Average) 5 45% and above but below 55% Second Class
P (Pass) 4 35% and above below 45%
Aggregate (external and internal
Third Class
put together) with a minimum of
30% in external
F (Fail) 0 Below an aggregate of 35%or
Fail
below 30% in external evaluation
Ab (Absent) 0 Fail
iii. When students take audit courses, they may be given pass (P) or fail (F) grade without
any credits.
iv. The SGPA is the ratio of the sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade
points scored by a student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the number
of credits of all the courses undergone by a student in the semester, i.e.
𝐒𝐆𝐏𝐀 (Si) = Σ(Ci x Gi) / ΣCi
Where Si is the SGPA in the ith semester, Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and
Gi is the grade point scored by the student in the i th course.
I DSC A 4 A 8 4 x 8 = 32
I DSC B 4 B+ 7 4 x 7 = 28
I DSC C 4 B 6 4 x 6 = 24
I MDC 3 B 6 3 x 6 = 18
I AEC 1 3 O 10 3 x 10 = 30
28
I AEC 2 3 C 5 3 x 5 = 15
Total 21 147
SGPA 147/21 = 7
The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner considering all the courses undergone
by a student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e.
i. The Academic Monitoring Committee will collect and whet the proposals
submitted by the Board of Studies of each Department with regard to the SHC-
UGP and duly forward them to the Academic Council.
ii. It will oversee and coordinate the activities undertaken for the successful
implementation of SHC-UGP in the College and will function as an advisory
body in such matters.
