Level
3- Highly Addressed, Level 2-Moderately Addressed, Level 1-Low Addressed. Method
is to relate
the level of
PO with the
number of hours
devoted to the
COs which address the given PO. If >40% of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is
considered that PO
is addressed at
Level 3 If
25 to 40%
of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is
considered that PO
is addressed at
Level 2 If 5
to 25% of
classroom sessions addressing a particular PO,
it is considered that PO is
addressed at Level
1 If
< 5% of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is considered
that PO is considered not-addressed |
