 Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)
The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam (SEE)
is 50%. The minimum passing mark for the CIE is 40% of the maximum marks (20 marks). A
student shall be deemed to have satisfied the academic requirements and earned the credits allotted
to each course. The student has to secure not less than 35% (18 Marks out of 50) in the semester-
end examination (SEE).
Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE):
CIE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks.
The split-up of CIE marks for record/ journal and test are in the ratio 60:40.
 Each experiment to be evaluated for conduction with observation sheet and record write-up.
Rubrics for the evaluation of the journal/write-up for hardware/software experiments designed
by the faculty who is handling the laboratory session and is made known to students at the
beginning of the practical session.
 Record should contain all the specified experiments in the syllabus and each experiment write-
up will be evaluated for 10 marks.
 Total marks scored by the students are scaled downed to 30 marks (60% of maximum marks).
 Weightage to be given for neatness and submission of record/write-up on time.
 Department shall conduct 02 tests for 100 marks, the first test shall be conducted after the 8th
week of the semester and the second test shall be conducted after the 14th week of the semester.
 In each test, test write-up, conduction of experiment, acceptable result, and procedural
knowledge will carry a weightage of 60% and the rest 40% for viva-voce.
 The suitable rubrics can be designed to evaluate each student’s performance and learning ability.
Rubrics suggested in Annexure-II of Regulation book
 The average of 02 tests is scaled down to 20 marks (40% of the maximum marks).
The Sum of scaled-down marks scored in the report write-up/journal and average marks of two tests is
the total CIE marks scored by the student.

Semester End Evaluation (SEE):

SEE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks.
SEE shall be conducted jointly by the two examiners of the same institute, examiners are
appointed by the University
 All laboratory experiments are to be included for practical examination.
 (Rubrics) Breakup of marks and the instructions printed on the cover page of the answer script to
be strictly adhered to by the examiners. OR based on the course requirement evaluation rubrics
shall be decided jointly by examiners.
 Students can pick one question (experiment) from the questions lot prepared by the internal
/external examiners jointly.
 Evaluation of test write-up/ conduction procedure and result/viva will be conducted jointly by
examiners.
 General rubrics suggested for SEE are mentioned here, writeup-20%, Conduction procedure and
result in -60%, Viva-voce 20% of maximum marks. SEE for practical shall be evaluated for 100
marks and scored marks shall be scaled down to 50 marks (however, based on course type, rubrics
shall be decided by the examiners)

Rubrics for the evaluation of the journal/write-up for hardware/software experiments designed
by the faculty who is handling the laboratory session and is made known to students at the
beginning of the practical session.
 Record should contain all the specified experiments in the syllabus and each experiment write-
up will be evaluated for 10 marks.
 Total marks scored by the students are scaled downed to 30 marks (60% of maximum marks).

 Department shall conduct 02 tests for 100 marks, the first test shall be conducted after the 8th
week of the semester and the second test shall be conducted after the 14th week of the semester.
 In each test, test write-up, conduction of experiment, acceptable result, and procedural
knowledge will carry a weightage of 60% and the rest 40% for viva-voce.
 The suitable rubrics can be designed to evaluate each student’s performance and learning ability.
Rubrics suggested in Annexure-II of Regulation book
 The average of 02 tests is scaled down to 20 marks (40% of the maximum marks).
The Sum of scaled-down marks scored in the report write-up/journal and average marks of two tests is
the total CIE marks scored by the student.

Semester End Evaluation (SEE):

SEE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks.
SEE shall be conducted jointly by the two examiners of the same institute, examiners are
appointed by the University
All laboratory experiments are to be included for practical examination.
(Rubrics) Breakup of marks and the instructions printed on the cover page of the answer script to
be strictly adhered to by the examiners. OR based on the course requirement evaluation rubrics
shall be decided jointly by examiners.
Students can pick one question (experiment) from the questions lot prepared by the internal
/external examiners jointly.
Evaluation of test write-up/ conduction procedure and result/viva will be conducted jointly by
examiners.
General rubrics suggested for SEE are mentioned here, writeup-20%, Conduction procedure and
result in -60%, Viva-voce 20% of maximum marks. SEE for practical shall be evaluated for 100

subject/ course if the student secures not less than 35% (18 Marks out of 50) in the semester-end
examination (SEE), and a minimum of 40% (40 marks out of 100) in the sum total of the CIE
(Continuous Internal Evaluation) and SEE (Semester End Examination) taken together
Continuous Internal Evaluation:
Three Unit Tests each of 20 Marks (duration 01 hour)
1. First test at the end of 5th week of the semester
2. Second test at the end of the 10th week of the semester
3. Third test at the end of the 15th week of the semester
Two assignments each of 10 Marks
4. First assignment at the end of 4th week of the semester
5. Second assignment at the end of 9th week of the semester
Group discussion/Seminar/quiz any one of three suitably planned to attain the COs and POs for 20
Marks (duration 01 hours)
6. At the end of the 13th week of the semester
The sum of three tests, two assignments, and quiz/seminar/group discussion will be out of 100 marks
and will be scaled down to 50 marks
(to have less stressed CIE, the portion of the syllabus should not be common /repeated for any of the
methods of the CIE. Each method of CIE should have a different syllabus portion of the course).
CIE methods /question paper is designed to attain the different levels of Bloom’s taxonomy as
per the outcome defined for the course.
Semester End Examination:
Theory SEE will be conducted by University as per the scheduled timetable, with common question
papers for the subject (duration 03 hours)
7. The question paper will have ten questions. Each question is set for 20 marks.
8. There will be 2 questions from each module. Each of the two questions under a module
(with a maximum of 3 sub-questions), should have a mix of topics under that module.
The students have to answer 5 full questions, selecting one full question from each module.

Activity Based Learning (Suggested Activities in Class)/ Practical Based learning

1. Experimentation – gathering knowledge through experience through lab.
2. Exploration – gathering knowledge and attaining skills through active investigation.
3. Expression – encouraging students to express their views through visual presentations.
