UGC promotes a standardized grading
scheme for colleges but practices a grading scheme that is distinct from UGCs for almost all private colleges
Private University Grading System
The issues of evaluating keep on testing instructors, however today we know like never before about the complexities included and how certain practices can impact educating and learning. Before bringing the issue of receiving a uniform reviewing framework into the talk, maybe it is significant for us to recognize what grade truly means and which rehearses advantage understudies and energizes learning.
For Universities, the UGC reviewing scale mirrors a 10-point increase scale. Be that as it may, private colleges practice a point increase scale differing from 11 to 13. State-funded universities assess understudies’ learning capacity through class tests and the last test of the year with 70 percent imprints. With 70 percent of stamps in the last test of the year, it is very hard for good understudies to score 90 percent imprints.
On the off chance that state-funded colleges evaluate understudies’ execution by three tests, class tests, and assignments or ventures, at that point, they can utilize the North American reviewing gauges. Evaluations ought to be with the end goal that they advantage instruction in the most ideal way and the understudies’ learning capacity.
