Designing Question Paper Marks Distribution Based on Bloom’s Taxonomy Level for Course Outcomes Measurement

Abstract

Outcome based education is an innovative teaching and learning methodology continuously focusing on the improvement of learning outcomes. Knowledge, skill, and competence learning outcomes are required to achieve during the process of learning. Outcome based assessment is the assessment process which is aligned with the learning outcomes. This paper represents an insight to formulate the question papers as per Bloom's Taxonomy level. An application of the theoretical framework for the integration of question paper setting through achievable matrix is described. Uniformity and systematic methodology are implementation is one of the key requirements of the accreditation agencies. Customization of the achievable matrix and implementation for different courses will bring uniformity across the institutions.
