We have been given a go-ahead by the management to enforce the
attendance and CA criteria mercilessly to increase the participation of
the students in the class and lab. Below are few advises for you all so
that you do not suffer at the end of the term.
Attendance:
Attendance
of 75% shall "strictly" be followed. The only allowed relaxation shall
be medical/ sports/ cultural/ placement (any one, not all) and the
relaxation shall not exceed a maximum of 10%.
Attendance
is being marked in vAttendance on a daily basis and is also accessible
for you to see. There shall be no manual intervention in the attendance
compilation and the attendance at any stage shall ONLY be counted from
vAttendnace. It shall be your responsibility to check your daily
attendance and if there is any discrepancy, inform the concerned
faculty, so that the same can be corrected immediately. Late reporting
shall not be considered. It can only be considered on the day of the
attendance only.
If you have not yet started using Vattendance, you are advised to start using it NOW.
CA in theory, Lab and Term paper:
CA
shall be monitored on a regular basis through tests, quizzes,
presentations, assignments etc, as the case be. Your overall CA shall be
on the basis of these, which might have been briefed to you by the
concerned faculty. If they have not, ask them the criteria for CA. This
applies to both the theory and lab courses.
Regarding
the Term paper, a specific period has been designated. The attendance of
the period shall also be counted and the tasks performed in the class
shall be used for the calculation of 40% of the CA of term paper (25
marks out of 60).
CA in projects:
Regarding
the project (final year, both UG and PG), every group/ student
has to report to the guide, once a week. Attendance at the guide end
shall also be maintained. 10% of the CA for project shall be based upon
the attendance.
The students shall also maintain an
individual (not a group) diary where they shall keep a track of the work they are
doing. The diary shall also form a part of the evaluation scheme. The
diary needs to be signed by the guide every week. Every week the group/
student has to give a presentation of ONLY FOUR slides about the
progress of the work. All these shall have some components towards the final CA for the project.
So if you are not attending classes, lab, term paper periods or project session, do it at YOUR OWN RISK.
