analysis
Introduction
Quality assurance is a key factor in education. This require analysis of Program Outcome (PO) and
Course Outcome (CO) mapping. This analysis is an important steps in outcome based education .
As medical education is moving from traditional teaching learning process to competency based or
outcome based education , this need to be incorporated in to the evaluation system . Besides
analysing the mapping, to make it more objective a score need to be obtained for mapping and
attainment score need to be calculated for each course and program .All these analysis help to
monitor not only the performance of the program but also the individual students .This type of
analysis is not routine in health care education. In the absence of any such guideline by Dental
Council of India , it is an attempt to adopt the guideline prescribed by NBA to calculate score for
mapping and attainment level of PO and CO.
Terminologies
Program educational objective (PEO)
Program Educational Objectives are broad statements that describe what graduates are expected to
attain within few years of completing their program. These are based on the needs of the society as
analysed and outlined by the regulatory bodies.
Program Outcome (PO):
Program outcomes represent broad statements that incorporate many areas of inter-related
knowledge and skills developed over the duration of the program through a wide range of courses
4
and experiences. They represent the big picture, describe broad aspects of knowledge, skill and attitude
development, and encompass multiple learning experiences.
Course Outcomes (CO):
Course outcomes describe the learning that will take place across the curriculum through concise
statements, made in specific and measurable terms, of what students will know and/or be able to do
as the result of having successfully completed a course.
Mapping of PEO, PO and the CO:
Mapping (program mapping) facilitates the alignment of course-level outcomes with program
outcomes. It allows faculty to create a visual map of a program. It is also used to explore how
students are meeting program-level outcomes at the course level. Outcomes mapping focuses on
student learning also.
Attainment score or level :
Attainment score or level is defined as a measure of a student’s achievement in school which
compares every child to a standardised expectation for their level, regardless of individual starting
points.
Bloom's Taxonomy
Bloom's Taxonomy of Learning Domains was created in 1956 under the leadership of educational
psychologist Dr. Benjamin Bloom in order to promote higher order of thinking in education. It is
most often used when designing educational, training, and learning processes. The three Domains of
Learning are (1) Cognitive: Mental Skills (Knowledge), (2) Affective: growth in feelings or
emotional areas (attitude or self) and (3) Psychomotor: manual or physical skills (skills). (Figure 1)

Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Research Institute is affiliated to Sir Balaji Vidyapeeth , a
health university of Puducherry. It has provided the syllabus for various health care courses, where
all courses have its own objectives and methodology to achieve the course outcomes. To attain the
course outcomes and program outcome, the institutes use course wise marks of students and the
pass percentage of the summative assessment .

Mapping and analysis of COs, POs and PEOs
Mapping of COs, POs and PEOs
The process of attainment of COs, POs and PEOs starts from writing appropriate COs for each
course in the five degree program ,which include one year of internship. As undergraduate Dental
program is regulated by the Dental Council of India, COs, POs and PEOs are defined by it. Based
on this, course outcomes are refined by the respective faculty members of the course using action
verbs of learning levels as suggested by Bloom Taxonomy. Then, a correlation is established
between COs and POs and COs and PEOs on the scale of 0 to 3 (‘0‘being no correlation, 1 being
the low correlation, 2 being medium correlation and 3 being high correlation) based on their
perception. The average score is calculated and is correlated with the courses as a whole not
individually . A 22x12 mapping matrix of COs-POs (Table.1) and 22x5 mapping matrix of
COs-PEOs (Table.2) is prepared at the institute level in this regard for all courses in the program

Program attainment score
To obtain attainment score for POs, we have considered the pass percentage of each course of a
year for 5 years .Based on this pass percentage, a graded score is allotted (1-50 to 60%; 2-61 to
75%; 3 - >75%) for each course in one year. Average of score for each year is taken as program
attainment score.(Table 4, Fig.8) The target for program attainment score is between 2-3 which
is achieved during last 5 year.

Course Attainment Score
Attainment of course assessment is based on the pass percentage of the students in each course in a year.
To obtain attainment score for course, summative assessment mark of individual student is being
considered. The components of summative assessment are internal assessment mark (theory and practical),
university examination(theory, practical/clinical, viva-voce, record).Based on the consolidated mark
obtained in a course , individual student is given a score . (0 - < 50 %marks out of the maximum relevant
marks; 1-50 to 54%; 2-55 to 59%;3-60 and above ).All the scores in that course are added and divided by
the total no of the student appear for that score. Sample table for calculation is given as Table 4 and last 5
years (2015-2019) course attainment score is given as Table 5. Year-wise course attainment score is given
in Figure 5 to 9.

Mapping of C, POs and PEOs
The process of attainment of COs, POs and PEOs starts from writing appropriate COs for each course in
the three year degree program. As postgraduate dental program is regulated by the Dental Council of India,
COs, POs and PEOs are defined by it. Based on this , course outcomes are refined by the respective faculty
members of the course using action verbs of learning levels as suggested by Bloom Taxonomy . Then, a
correlation is established between COs and POs and COs and PEOs on the scale of 0 to 3 (‘0‘being no
correlation, 1 being the low correlation, 2 being medium correlation and 3 being high correlation) based on
their perception. The average score is calculated and is correlated with the courses as a whole not
individually .A 7x4 mapping matrix of COs-POs and 4x4 mapping matrix of COs-PEOs is prepared at the
institute level in this regard for all courses in the program.

Mapping of C, POs and PEOs
The process of attainment of COs, POs and PEOs starts from writing appropriate COs for each course in
the three year degree program. As postgraduate dental program is regulated by the Dental Council of India,
COs, POs and PEOs are defined by it. Based on this , course outcomes are refined by the respective
faculty members of the course using action verbs of learning levels as suggested by Bloom Taxonomy .
Then, a correlation is established between COs and POs and COs and PEOs on the scale of 0 to 3 (‘0‘being
no correlation, 1 being the low correlation, 2 being medium correlation and 3 being high correlation) based
on their perception. The average score is calculated and is correlated with the courses as a whole not
individually. A 4x7 mapping matrix of COs-POs and 4x5 mapping matrix of COs-PEOs is prepared at the
institute level in this regard for all courses in the program.

Course Attainment Score
To obtain attainment score for course, summative assessment mark of individual student is being
considered. The components of summative assessment are university examinations are theory,
practical/clinical and viva-voce. Based on the consolidated mark obtained in a course, individual student is
given a score (0 - < 50 %marks out of the maximum relevant marks; 1-50 to 54%; 2-55 to 59%;3-60% and
above ). All the scores in that course are added and divided by the total no of the student appear for that
score. The obtained result is considered as course attainment score.

Mapping of C, POs and PEOs
The process of attainment of COs, POs and PEOs starts from writing appropriate COs for each course in
the three year degree program . As postgraduate dental program is regulated by the Dental Council of India
, COs, POs and PEOs are defined by it. Based on this , course outcomes are refined by the respective
faculty members of the course using action verbs of learning levels as suggested by Bloom Taxonomy .
Then, a correlation is established between COs and POs and COs and PEOs on the scale of 0 to 3 (‘0‘being
no correlation, 1 being the low correlation, 2 being medium correlation and 3 being high correlation) based
on their perception. The average score is calculated and is correlated with the courses as a whole not
individually .A 4x6 mapping matrix of COs-POs and 4x5 mapping matrix of COs-PEOs is prepared at the
institute level in this regard for all courses in the program.
