A Novel Summative Grading Assessment Strategy for Improving Students Performance

Students Performance can be measured under various categories like Success Rate, Academic Performance, Placement and Higher Studies and Professional Activities. Among these, Academic Performance paves the vital role in assessing their career upliftment. It is meant to be one of the key factors for assessing the departmental as well as institutional strength. The assessment can be undergone in two ways Formative and summative. We have chosen data sets from Continuous Assessment Tests for Formative assessment and Terminal Exam results for Summative assessment. In our strategy we have given more priority over the Formative Assessment. Since, when we Fine tune the student's outcome through Formative assessment we can able to expect improved Final outcome. In this paper we have proposed threshold based grading assessment strategy and the results are discussed. Interestingly, the strategy used for analyzing the outcome compared to previous successive rate correlates the final outcome. The attendance, vernacular skill set and rural locale are the prominent factors to be considered while undergoing the academic analysis.
