The biggest driver for today's education is to match assessment to learning. School District (SD) leaders support efforts to hold schools accountable and are working to promote greater congruence between what's tested and what kids need to learn, if they are to thrive in the future. In order to promote important life skills like creativity, problem solving, and communications, one needs to have a hands-on life experience which is not only enjoyable but rewarding as well. Education is undoubtedly a tool for empowerment and IEEE K-12 STEM Literacy program in USA is fully committed to its implementation. Through various resources, like Tryengineering.org, Trynano.org and trycomputing.org, IEEE is trying to reach out to various school districts to tool teachers with hands-on lesson plans. IEEE is taking on the role of engaging the School Districts for further development of STEM programs more articulated & supportive of the specific/tailored needs. Working with and building a track record and demonstrating to potential partner School districts to have a history of returning dividends for their investments, increases the likelihood of IEEE being seen as serious and worthy partner.

Professional education aims to provide students with requisite knowledge and skills to face today's competitive environment. To achieve this currently practices like systematically assessing student learning and measuring learning outcomes are presently in place. The primary goal achieved by this process is the continued improvement of academic quality for the institution. This paper investigates the application of correlation analysis for finding relationships between skills acquired is one test with the other components like assignments, individual marks with the final result and the correlation of performances of students' across courses. The results obtained for the first study indicates that there exists moderately strong relationship. The second study shows that correlation coefficients of related courses are better while that of some unrelated courses have moderate value. This means that in case of related courses the skills acquired in a prerequisite course can help them to do better in the current course. This exploratory analysis when properly interpreted can help plan and retrospect and re-adjust the mode of assessment or course delivery to enhance student learning.

The penetration of Information Technology (IT) in every field of business has opened up a plethora of employment opportunities at the global level. India has become a global hub for IT services export, where industry has felt a pressing need for acquiring and retaining competent talent. However, there is a strong feeling in the industry circles that students graduating from engineering colleges are not industry ready and many of them are not employable. Academia has also felt a strong need in terms of producing the necessary quality talent. It has been quite some time since industry and academia started working together to enhance the employability of engineering graduates and make them industry ready. Various models have been initiated by big industry captains to make this collaboration workable. But the big question is how effective these models are in terms of their applicability and usefulness to all the stakeholders in industry and academia. Through this paper, we discuss some of the offerings under the industry academia collaboration model. An analysis of various challenges being encountered during the evaluation of effectiveness of such models is also discussed. A few potential cost effective ways to address the underlying challenges are put forth towards the end of the paper.

Today with advancement in Information Communication Technology (ICT) the way the education is being delivered is seeing a paradigm shift from boring classroom lectures to interactive applications such as 2-D and 3-D learning content, animations, live videos, response systems, interactive panels, education games, virtual laboratories and collaborative research (data gathering and analysis) etc. The new companies are emerging with more innovative solutions in the field of education and bringing out their innovative products to improve education delivery. The academic institutes which were once hesitant to use such technology are now looking forward to such innovations. They are adopting the new ways as they are realizing the vast benefits of using such methods and technology. The benefits are better comprehensibility, improved learning efficiency of students, and access to vast knowledge resources, geographical reach, quick feedback, accountability and quality research. This paper focuses on how an academic institute can leverage the latest technology and build a collaborative learning environment which can then be integrated with the national e-learning grid.

Today at any major university it is not possible to sustain a viable undergraduate program in electric power without having a productive research program. The faculties will also have to develop depth in areas associated with their expertise and breadth in terms of ability to assimilate and apply support disciplines to the problems in electric power engineering. Maintaining and teaching a modern curriculum in power engineering is a challenge. Solution lies in interdisciplinary association & industry-academia consortia. Future power engineering educators would have to use a variety of sources like sharing of resources, e-learning and e-resources, strong industry interaction, etc. to develop future smart power engineers. Research parks in collaboration with relevant industries are to be developed for promoting innovation & enterprises.

In today's world of globalization, engineering students should have high level technical skills and multidisciplinary skills to face current industry requirements. The engineering students should develop the communication skills, leadership skills, management skills, interpersonal skills and ability to work in a team. However, there is a competency gap between the skills required by industry and those developed by students during their undergraduate courses, these skills can be indulged while students are working in laboratories, tutorial classes and projects. The paper proposes an approach called Self Help Group to incorporate the team working spirit. This approach is implemented by involving higher performance students in teaching learning process for improving various skills of weaker students and makes the group asa high achievers group.

Undergraduate (UG) Research is the first step in a students' life to taste the experience of a research work. It is also a unique experience for the teachers to guide the students in research work during their UG study. In this paper we want to share our research experience through the project that involves the building of a Robotic arm which mimics the motion of the human arm of the user at Humanitarian Technology (HuT) Labs of Amrita. The system monitors the motion of the user's arm using a Kinect. The skeletal image of the arm obtained using the “Kinect Skeletal Image” project of Kinect SDK, consists of 3 joints and links connecting them. Coordinate Geometry is used to calculate the angles between the links connecting the joints. This gives us the angles for a 3D representation of the human arm. The angles thus obtained are sent using a serial communication port to the Arduino microcontroller, which in turn generates signals which are sent to the servo motors. The servo motors rotate according the angles given as input. The combined motion of the servos results in a complete Robotic arm movement which is a mimic of the human arm movement.

This paper presents innovative approach for teaching the subject Process instrumentation at the undergraduate level in Instrumentation engineering as a part of an effective teaching learning process. The approach presented attempts to elicit interest of the students on a continuing basis by illustratively bringing out the application perspective of theoretical concepts through a series of learning aids. These learning aids involve industry field visits to identify the process parameters of interest for monitoring and control in different application domains, formulate measurement techniques, identify primary sensors, transducers and their deployment, there by facilitating an opportunity for the students to not only connect the theoretical concepts to the real world application but also to develop an exploratory learning attitude, need analysis, communication skills thus helping them to evolve as a pro-active engineering professional. The details of the said approach are carried out at fourth semester level as an experimental basis; the metrics used for assessing the learning outcomes are presented.

Evaluation is a process of assessing and measuring the educational system through many techniques like oral or viva-voce exam, subjective exam and objective exam etc. After conducting a survey on 200 peoples, we found, objective exam is preferred to evaluate the students frequently due to the easy and less time consuming in the evaluation of objective answer-sheet in compare to the subjective answer-sheet. This paper is a discussion on a solution to evaluate the objective answer-sheet automatically by computer. It is used to automate the import data which emanate from objective answer sheets into a computer. Its main advantage is the ability to work with every single scanner of the market, needing no extra drivers whatsoever and no special color printing of the forms. Optical character recognition technique is used here to recognize the response of the students. Thirty objective sheets were filled by 30 peoples to test the proposed system.
