Inventor(s) include S. Prakash; Susilkumar S; Sathish C; Vijay P; and Vasanthakumar S.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Outcome-Based Education (OBE) provides a structured approach to measuring student learning by aligning assessments with predefined Course Outcomes (COs) and Program Outcomes (POs). This project implements an automated OBE evaluation system that streamlines the process of collecting, analyzing, and mapping student performance data. Internal assessments, assignments, and endsemester examinations are systematically recorded in CO-mapped formats, with attainment levels calculated according to established benchmarks such as those recommended by the NBA. Direct attainll1ent is derived from exa111 scores tlsin,g weighted formulas. while indirect ;llt;Jinment is o htainccl from Sllldeni fecdb:Kk surveys, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of k:Jming elfectiveness. The objectives, using numeric mapping strengths to compute overall PO attainment. By digitizing the OBE workflow, the project improves accuracy, transparency, and efficiency in academic performance measurement, enabling departments to continuously monitor and enhance curriculum delivery in line with outcome-based education principles. The proposed invention is an online platform designed to automate and enhance the process of academic evaluation using the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) framework. It provides an intuitive and user-friendly interface for educational institutions, enabling faculty to record assessment data, map Course Outcomes (COs) with Program Outcomes (POs), and analyze attainment levels in real time. The platform offers features such as automated CO-PO mapping, graphical analytics, and continuous improvement tracking, ensuring transparency and accuracy in academic evaluation. Administrators benefit from tools for performance reporting, accreditation readiness, and data-driven decision-making, enhancing institutional quality standards. This invention aims to deliver a reliable, scalable, and intelligent digital solution that modernizes the outcome assessment process in higher education."
