Abstract

AbstractThis paper aims to provide an evaluation method for the attainment of program objectives for engineering graduates as defined by NBA (National Board of Accreditation). As NBA requires specific evaluation techniques and measurement methods for measuring the attainment of course outcomes, program outcomes and program educational outcomes; this paper provides a solution of the measurement techniques using neural networks. The performance of all the students of a batch can be displayed graphically using neural networks.Keywords: Course objectives, program objectives, program educational outcomes, rubrics, multilayer perceptron, classificationCite this ArticleTherese Yamuna Mahesh.
