A.1 Listing and Description of the SOs Assessment Tools
The applied measuring instruments which are used for assessing the
SOs are classified into two main categories:
Direct assessment measures which include:
1) Students course works assessment
2) Senior Design Project (SDP) assessment
3) Coop/Summer training assessment
4) Outcomes Achievement Exam
Indirect assessment measures which include:
1) Student Surveys (course surveys and senior exit surveys).
2) Professional Advisory Board feedbacks and comments.
3) External Visitor feedbacks and comments.
4) Student Advisory Committee feedbacks and comments.
 Types of Assessments

 Formative assessment and summative assessment.

 The formative assessment for each outcome is done over
consequent levels for selected courses that serve and build this
outcome.
 The assessment is performed for the selected courses at the time
these courses are taken by the assessed batch (Scheduled Time).
 The summative assessment is carried out by the time of
graduation, and is applied on selected senior courses, the SDP,
Coop./Summer training and the OAE.
 Thus, this summative evaluation will be done every three years.

 Assessment of Student Outcomes of the Courses

Assessment Procedure
1- An assessment cycle already finished for the batch which joined our College
in Semester 351

2- Currently, the second cycle (381- ) is going on

2- The instructors shall relate their courses to the New Students’ Outcomes
precisely and logically.

3- As regarding the formative assessment, every semester there will be few

chosen courses which should be assessed.
4- The instructor should design the Exams, quizzes, reports, etc. such
that certain parts measure certain student outcome to which their
course is highly related.

5- For the compulsory courses, the results of the Exams, Quizzes and
Reports are to be assessed to evaluate the level of achievement of the
highly related outcomes.

6- It is required to analyze the following students’ work:

The Final Exam.
The Mid-term Exams
Two Quizzes
Two of the group including Home-works, Assignments and similar works.
Any other works such as mini projects.

7- Then, the instructors should calculate the percentage of students

acquired these outcomes and the average percentage grade

Please- based on Students’ Outcomes Assessment- give reasons as
regarding the contents of course, delivery& assessment mode,
facilities, prerequisite, etc.
The Following are suggested improvement actions
a. Syllabus content c. Delivery method
b. Assessment activities d. Other to be mentioned
Date:
• The marks of the student acquired the outcome is ≥ 66 % for EE
and CE Programs, while it is ≥ 60 % for ME Program.

** Average Mark should be ≥ 66 % for EE and CE Programs, while it is

≥ 60 % for ME Program.

*** Overall Assessment is calculated as the weighted average using

the following weights for the students' work for most theoretical
courses:
• 0.04 for each quiz, 0.02 for each Report, 0.18 for each Mid-term
and 0.5 for the Final Exam.
• For courses having Lab work or any other student works, use the
(assigned mark/total mark) as a weight.

Weighted Average = Σ [(Item %)xWeight]/ ΣWeights
