Educationists flay MCQ tests for polytech colleges
Chennai: The Directorate of Technical Education (DoTE) recently decided to reform assessment methods in polytechnic colleges, transitioning from descriptive type answers to MCQs from this academic year. Previously, the assessment system involved questions of two, three, five, and seven marks demanding descriptive answers. The reformed system increases emphasis on MCQs, even for questions that require application, analysis, and critical thinking. For internal theoretical assessments, number of MCQ questions (one mark) is double that of short answer questions. As for the end semester examination, the entire assessment (one-mark and two-mark questions) is MCQ-based. For theoretical-cum-practical exams, also known as practicum (integrated tests), equal weightage has been given to MCQs and theoretical questions (two marks and three marks), accounting for 50 marks. The remaining 50 marks come from practicals, as revealed by a perusal of the communication from DOTE accessed by TOI. While the directorate contends that the reform would help students move on from rote-based learning and help measure learning outcomes accurately, educationists says the measure is a smaller component of outcome-based education, which the NEP 2020 endorsed. "When the state itself is opposed to NEP, bringing about reforms outlined in the policy is wrong. Outcome-based education kills the spirit of learning. This is a failed model of evaluation. Thrusting this on students without consultating them is unfortunate," said Prince Gajendra Babu, general secretary, State Platform for Common Education System.

"Especially in a polytechnic setup, the weightage on practicals has to be increased. Focusing on MCQ-based assessment is opposite to the desired learning outcomes. Ideally, 95% of the questions should be comprehensive, providing a multi-dimensional assessment model for the student to analyse the problem," he added.

One-fifth of private TN polytechnic colleges opt out of admissions
CHENNAI: As many as 80 — or one-fifth — of the 401 private polytechnic colleges in Tamil Nadu have opted out of the admission process this academic year. The unprecedented development has brought to light the issues ailing polytechnic education — at private institutions in particular — where colleges and seats are aplenty, but takers few. According to officials of the Directorate of Technical Education (DoTE), of these 80 colleges, 35 have applied for permanent closure in the last two years, while the remaining have chosen not to admit students this year. 'Some of these colleges have failed to enrol students even in single-digit figures in the last three years. Hence, we have not asked them to join admissions,' said an official. Experts attribute the declining enrolment to the rising interest among students in engineering courses and the high fees charged by private polytechnic colleges. 'When a student can study a course in a government college for just Rs 2,500 a year, why would they want to spend Rs 30,000 in a private college,' said the principal of a private college in Coimbatore. P Selvaraj, secretary of the Consortium of Self-financing Professional, Arts and Science Colleges in TN, said private polytechnic colleges are struggling to fill even half their seats and operational costs are taking a toll on their survival.
