Examining the Impacts of Course Outcome Analysis in Indian Higher Education

Abstract

Course Outcome Analysis (COA) is a crucial tool in Indian higher education, enhancing educational quality and aligning programs with industry standards. It defines measurable learning outcomes, promotes student-centered learning, and ensures transparency between curriculum, assessment, and learning objectives. The College of Advanced Studies (COA) is a system aiming to improve student performance and achievement by aligning teaching practices with learning outcomes and developing effective assessments. It also enhances students' employability and qualifications. Despite facing challenges like resistance, resource limitations, standardization issues, and equity concerns, COA has the potential to revolutionize Indian higher education by enhancing quality, preparing students for the modern world, and addressing equity and inclusive concerns.
