Quality of Assessment, control and Improvement
• The QEC conducts teacher and course evaluation by the students at the end of each semester
• The teacher evaluation is sent to the concern teacher, Chairmen/Director and Dean
• The Chairman/Director calls a meeting on this assessment and discuss the weaker areas without mentioning the name of teachers and come up with a solution that how improvements can be made
• Each department sends the minutes of meeting to QEC
![Page 27: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Satisfactory Assessment
• Initially, the assessments were narrow scoped• Now, the system is getting mature and depth is
coming in assessments, with a focus towards real issues
• The main reasons for unsatisfactory assessment was non-clarity of the assessment procedures and their importance
![Page 28: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Steps Taken Towards Improvements
• The keen interest of the Vice Chancellor in QEC activities helped a lot
• The Vice Chancellor himself started visits of the departments
• Regular interaction with the departments by QEC• The students’ counseling started• Teachers’ trainings were increased• Introduced trainings for the focal persons
![Page 29: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Weaker Areas Identified
Based on Assessment Reports• Electricity issues• Lecture rooms availability• Shortage of equipments/glassware• Faculty need training• Lack of senior faculty in the departments• Inadequate laboratory manuals• Lack of hand on work opportunities
![Page 30: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Concept of Self Assessment
• Initially, the faculty was very reluctant to cooperate• As a result of continuous efforts, their cooperation
has increased• Departments have started realizing that SA is in their
own favor• Quality conscious faculty is always eager to know
feed back from the students
![Page 31: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Lessons Drawn
• Quality is the key of success, but it never comes over nightly
• Slowly and gradually, we are succeeded to reduce the resistance of faculty in the adoption of quality procedures
• During the semester, faculty is not willing to do admin duties– Faculty feel QEC activities as extra burden on them– No incentive for PT/AT for QEC activities– QEC assignments are not included in their workload
![Page 35: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Lessons Drawn
• Students seriousness is always questionable• Assessment procedures are delayed too much due to
teaching schedule• Faculty think that QEC is responsible for the solution
of their problems• The QEC is sole responsible for the Quality of the
institute• Issues/Improvements are highlighted and raised at
appropriate level• Self accountability is increased
![Page 36: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Level of Satisfaction and Future Reforms
• Overall level is satisfactoryAdministrative Structure:• Director QEC must be over the rank of a Dean to
implement all assessment proceduresOtherwise• Dean of the Faculty should act as Dean Quality
Assurance• Head of the Department/Institute must act as Director
Quality Assurance and responsible for assessment procedure and uplifting the quality standards
![Page 37: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Level of Satisfaction and Future Reforms
Procedure Adopted:• Currently, all assessment procedures are initiated by
QEC
• Assessment procedures may be initiated by the concern Head of the Department/Institute (Director QA) in all programs
• Assessment cycle may be repeated in all programs after every 2-3 years
![Page 38: Quality Enhancement Cell Dr. Dawar Hameed Mughal Director (October 23, 2013)](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d0f5503460f949e4b87/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Level of Satisfaction and Future Reforms
HEC Forms• Repetition of information
• Course review report• Survey of Departments offering PhD programs
Self Assessment Manual• Repetition of information• Irrelevant criterions • HEC demands all criterions to be covered in SAR• SA Manual need to be revise or SAR need to be
converted into IP• HEC QEC ranking system need to be revised
