Abstract :
With 'Twinning Programs'; 'Joint Degree' initiatives; 'Study Abroad' programs; 'Mobility of Learners' and the need for offering flexible curricular choices to them, it has now become necessary to take serious relook at the system and introduce reforms. The UGC has time and again recommended for improving the quality and effectiveness of higher education in the country. An important concern voiced more strongly in recent times is the need to develop a Credit Based Evaluation System in tune with global trends and the adoption of a sound grading system for reflecting learner's performance. The curriculum under this system has been proposed to upgrade the standards of teaching via classroom lectures, laboratory techniques, seminars, field studies, assignments, projects, discussions, etc. Credit Based Evaluation is pivotal in enhancing learning opportunities, matching learner's needs and aspirations, inter institution transferability, providing flexibility for a program completion over an extended period of time, standardisation/comparability of programs across the country etc. To evaluate the students during program, CCE is employed with striking features of grading system, formative and summative evaluation, formative feedback and transparent/tangible evaluation process. Although a very empowering system, it still suffers from issues of nomenclature, content equivalence, degree of openness/ restrictedness, evaluation strategies etc.
