The learning level of the students is assessed session-wise through:
1. Q & A Sessions
2. Surprise Quiz
3. Group Presentation
4. Participative Activities and Feedback
Time-bound assessment is done through class tests, assignments, field studies and University exam.
Thus there is Continuous Evaluation at the institution. Session-wise assessment helps in identifying advanced learners and slow learners. Proctorship sessions also provide feedback. Psychometric assessment also helps in this process.
Measures taken for slow learners:
1. Remedial classes are provided to the students for doubt clearing and handholding.
2. Faculty members regularly interact and counsel the students individually in order to motivate them to improve their performance.
3. Assistance in preparation for examination (Providing practice questions and answers and practice assignments) Measures taken for advanced learners
1. Value added courses such as Advance Excel, Training for NISM etc are provided.
2. Mentoring by Senior Professors to develop their creativity, leadership and organizing capacity
3. Students are encouraged to participate in B-Fest and other inter-college competitions.

All MBA courses incorporate experiential learning, participative learning and problem solving methods to enhance the learning experience and effectiveness. Some of the best activities are cited as under:
EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING:

Lectures are delivered using audio-visual aids, smart classrooms, and virtual platforms like Google Meet, ensuring interactive and technology-enabled teaching. Surveys, feedback, and online examinations are efficiently conducted through G-Suite tools, enhancing transparency and continuous assessment.
Additionally, online study materials are provided to support flexible and self-paced learning, creating a dynamic hybrid learning environment. Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are used for designing Project and simulation exercises. ICT tools currently used by faculty for a better learning experience are cited as under:

ASTHA School of Management has incorporated Continuous Internal Evaluation through the following:
1. Session-wise assessment and feedback
2. Evaluation to attain COs
3. Assessment to map competencies
4. VAC Evaluation
Transparency:
1. The evaluation criteria are clearly communicated to the students through Lesson Plan, Academic Orientation and Digital Platforms.
2. Evaluated sheets are discussed with the students.
3. Marks are displayed on the notice board and university portal.
4. Project Presentation, Class test II, and SIP Presentations are evaluated by a panel of subject experts from among the faculty and external experts.
Robustness:
1. Different sets of question papers are prepared with model answers.
2. Post-evaluation discussions are facilitated through special feedback sessions.
3. Students are given model answers for improved understanding of the results.
4. The exam rooms are under CCTV surveillance.
5. The faculties act as the invigilators during the exams.
For internal assessment faculties have freedom to choose from the components like group discussion, quiz, assignment, project work, fieldwork, presentation or viva. Two class tests are mandatory. Internal evaluation is for 50 marks and the external evaluation is for 100 marks.

The exam cell is headed by Examination In-charge. Student grievance is brought forth by the Proctor of the student, through written application, and is addressed by the exam cell immediately.
Most issues are related to students who remained absent in any of the examinations. The students with issues related to health or family emergency route their issues through the proctor. The examination in-charge solves it as per exam rules of the institute and the affiliating University. Issues beyond exam rules are referred to the Grievance Handling Committee. Any unresolved grievance is directed towards the Principal for resolution.
The students have direct access to the Principal through “Right to Principal”.

ASTHA School of Management adopts Outcome based Education (OBE) with a student-centric approach that follows a rigorous teaching-learning process. For this the institute has the prepared the POs and PSOs based on current requirements of the industry and its stakeholders in terms of required skills for business management, administration, research and entrepreneurship keeping focus on ethics, sustainability and social responsibility.
The COs are designed by the faculty in sync with the course objectives and the POs & PSOs. Faculty of each course plans the sessions and the learning outcomes based on Bloom’s Taxonomy. The COs are measurable and correlate with the POs and PSOs. There is a continuous assessment mechanism to monitor student’s progress and map the CO, PO & PSO.
Mechanism of communication of COs, POs and PSOs to the various stakeholders are as follows:

Sl. No.	Stake-holders	Mode of communication
1.	Students	Orientation Course Manual Proctoring Institution Website Notice Board Chatbot (ICT) Library Notice Board
2.	Faculties	Library NB Course Manual Institutional Website
3.	Parents	Parents Meet Course Manual.
4.	Industry personnel	Institutional Website
5.	Public	Institutional Website

ASTHA School of Management follows a continuous assessment system to track and evaluate students' progress and map the CO, PO & PSO.
Calculation for mapping CO-PO-PSO attainment:
CO Attainment:Direct Method- 80%, Indirect Method- 20%
Guidelines for mapping CO-PO-PSO
1. Minimum attainment level of each assessment of all COs in the internal exam is 50%, and the external exam is Grade C.
2. University marks are weighted to 67% and internal assessment is weighted to 33%.
3. Direct Attainment level of each Individual CO is based on the Correlation levels:
if 0.5 ≤ X< 0.6 then X =1, else 0.6 ≤ X < 0.7 then X=2, else 0.7 ≤ X ≤ 1 then X=3;
Indirect attainment is achieved through students' feedback.
if 1 ≤ X<2 then X= 0, 2.5 ≤ X< 3 then X= 1, 3 ≤ X < 3.5 then X= 2, 3.5 ≤ X< 5 then X= 3;
Scale used is 0 for No Correlation, 1 for Low, 2 for Moderate and 3 for High Correlation
Average attainment of all the POs is calculated to evaluate the overall Programme Outcome. The report is generated, discussed and measures are taken for improving the attainment level year on year.
