Abstract
The term Course Outcomes (COs) plays a vital role in Outcome-Based Education (OBE). The attainment of Program Educational Objective (PEOs) and Program Outcomes (POs) is depends on the attainment of Course Outcomes (COs). In this paper, we have measured the CO attainment for Data Structure course on the basis of two methods; one is direct method in which students' marks have been considered as an input data. While another method, indirectly measures the CO attainment by taking feedback from Course Exit Survey. A suitable weight-age is given to direct and indirect method i.e. 80% and 20% respectively. The course Data Structure is chosen for this study of CO attainment because this course is very important for students' employment i.e. placement as well as competitive exams. The attempt is made here to find out accurate attainment of COs so that corrective actions can be taken for the next batch to improve the teaching learning process and intern higher attainment of COs and intern PEOs. Finally the analysis of results obtained by both direct and indirect methods is also shown in this paper.
