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.

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.

Computation of SGPA and CGPA


The following method is recommended to compute the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):

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.

Sum of the credit points of all courses in a semester


SGPA=
Total Credits in that Semester
Illustration – Computation of SGPA

Letter Grade Credit Point


Semester Course Credit
Grade point (Credit x Grade)

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.

Sum of the credit points of all courses in six or eight semesters


CGPA=
Total Credits in Six (133) or Eight (177) semesters
v. The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the
transcripts.

SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHER SPECIFIC CONTENTS:
➢ Determine the output of a combinatorial circuit constructed using basic logic gates. Also,
5 building a digital circuit produces the required output. (Eg: Build a digital circuit that produces the
output (𝑝 ∨ ¬𝑟) ∧ (¬𝑝 ∨ (𝑞 ∨ ¬𝑟)) with input bits 𝑝, 𝑞 and 𝑟 .
➢ Using a graphing calculator, visualize the effect of stretching and scaling (horizontal & vertical)
of functions.
➢ Match the graphs of functions with the graphs of their derivatives.
➢ Use a graphing utility to make rough estimates of the locations of all horizontal tangent lines
36

➢ Use the implicit plotting capability of a CAS to graph a curve.


Suggested software: Desmos, GeoGebra etc.
The practicum component is to be done in the classroom under the strict guidance of the teachers. A
minimum of 30 problems is to be solved, and a handwritten copy of the solutions should be kept in the
department.
