PROCESS OF DIRECT GRADING(1) • Each answer is graded with letters • Weightage is then given based on the range of the question • Grades and weightages are assigned numerical values • The weighted grade points arrived by multiplying grade points by weightage
PROCESS OF DIRECT GRADING (2 ) Grade Point Average (GPA) • Sum of weighted grade points is divided by the sum of the weightage to arrive Grade Point Average (GPA) for the course
PATTERN OF QUESTIONS • Knowledge acquired • Application of knowledge in new situations • Critical evaluation of knowledge • Ability to synthesize knowledge
