Anna University revises internal evaluation norms
Modifications based on inputs received from various quarters
- Unit test, assignments and motivated study
or project work will carry 50 marks
- Students will take internal unit tests in
specially-prepared, bound note books
COIMBATORE: Anna University, Coimbatore, has revised its internal
evaluation norms and brought in refinements / modifications
based on inputs received from various quarters for its constituent
and affiliated colleges.
According to the university’s Controller of Examinations
Commander Vinod Gopalan (Retd.), the internal assessment will
consist of three components – unit test, assignments and
motivated study / project work that will carry 50 marks.
Students will have to undertake their internal unit tests in
specially prepared bound note books. One book will be provided
for each subject.
It will have serial numbers and will be given to the students
only at the time of the test and for perusing marks after evaluation.
The original copy of the question paper will be retained by
the Head of the Department. The final average marks awarded
will be 30.
Similarly a separate note book with serial numbers will be maintained
by each student for assignments. The total assignment work will
be approximately 60 hours of study and written work per semester.
The final average marks awarded will be 10.
A self-study work termed motivated study or work project on
a chosen topic involving at least 16 hours or more hours of
study, including a public presentation work, should be undertaken
by each student per subject.
Again, a special note book will be maintained for this. The
average marks for the project will be 10. The students are also
given an option of undertaking a single project as an alternative
to the assignment and motivated study.
The content, however, should be sizable and significant in order
to be evaluated for 20 marks for a semester.
The departments can offer their students management or technical
problems which will result in demonstrable cost or effort savings
for the university or institution. It can also be of use to
the general public.
The final examination marks will be calculated at an average
of 50 to make the overall evaluation for 100 marks.
