Defining Course Outcomes based on Program Outcomes and Bloom’s Taxonomy for the course on Image Processing

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to signify the appropriateness of defining the Course Outcomes (COs) based on Program Outcomes (POs) and Bloom’s taxonomy. It can be generally observed that POs defined for most of the courses are based on the topics/syllabus covered in the course. An attempt to compare the calculation of the POs through COs with the older method and the method explained in the paper is also included. Also through this comparison it can be ascertained that this method of defining COs is better compared to the previous method. Image Processing is the chosen course to explain the repertoire of aspects however the methodology explained in this paper can be extended any other course irrespective of the type of course / program.
