Assessing the impact on course outcomes using different types of assessment components with varying teaching approaches

Abstract

The concept of measuring the course outcome (CO) is emphasized by the introduction of outcome-based education (OBE). The CO attainment measured depends on various factors such as student’s background, diversity, influence of family members, teaching approaches and evaluation approaches etc.  The attainment of CO directly influences he Programme Outcomes (PO) attainment. In three different approaches is taken, i.e., conventional and flipped classroom approach and blended learning approach with components by conventional written assessment activity-based assessment and case study assessment. The impact of the assessment components was measured in final written exam. The results indicates that the activity-based assessment given in conventional and flipped classroom approach has better CO attainment % in terms of conventional written assessment in teaching approaches.
