Comment on any special or unusual factors that might have affected the apparent completion rates (e.g. Transfers between intermediate and full program, transfers to or from other programs). 4. Enrollment Management and Cohort Analysis (Table 1) Cohort Analysis refers to tracking a specific group of students who begin a given year in a program and following them until they graduate (How many students actually start a program and stay in the program until completion). A cohort here refers to the total number of students enrolled in the program at the beginning of each academic year, immediately after the preparatory year. No new students may be added or transfer into a given cohort. Any students that withdraw from a cohort may not return or be added again to the cohort. Cohort Analysis (Illustration): Table 1 provides complete tracking information for the most recent cohort to complete the program, beginning with their first year and tracking them until graduation (students that withdraw are subtracted and no new students are added). The report is to cover the past four years. Update the years as needed.

C. Program Context

1. Significant changes within the institution affecting the program (if any) during the past year. • In accordance with Jouf University plans for accreditations, the Electrical Engineering Department

has initiated its own plan for acquiring the accreditation. • Participation of all program’s staff in quality process. Implications for the program • The quality committee in the electrical engineering program started a series of actions in order to

meet the national and international requirements. To name some: Ø Updating all courses’ files with the latest NCAAA forms. Ø Workshops on assessment methods specially on improving the quality of major exams

and associating the learning outcomes. Ø Course Evaluation by another instructor.

• Starting from the first semester, all students were asked to use Web-Based Questionnaire for evaluating each course that was offered.

• Five workshops were conducted to all electrical engineering department staff for revising the Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) for all the courses, identifying rubrics, course evaluation, KPI selection and finally course report writing.

2. Significant changes external to the institution affecting the program (if any) during the past year.

1. Course Reports Results. Describe and analyze how the individual NCAAA course reports are utilized to assess the program and to ensure ongoing quality assurance (eg. Analysis of course completion rates, grade distributions, and trend studies.) (a.) Describe how the individual course reports are used to evaluate the program. The Undergraduate Program Committee (UPC) provided the program with full report about the course reports contents that contained recommendations and action plans written by instructors. The UPC analyzed the feedback from course reports and determined the responsible committees and administrative person to achieve those recommendations. � The electrical engineering department has established the Assessment and Evaluation Committee (AEC). The main task of this committee is to provide feedback based on collected and analyzed data to improve the effectiveness of the EE program. At the end of each semester, the AEC collects a course scores summary that includes the following: �

• Number of registered, banned and withdrawn students. • Percentage of passed and failed students.� • Average, maximum and minimum mark. �

The committee also performs analysis of exam results by measuring the difficulty level, discrimination and quality of test for each course. Difficulty level is a measure of a proportion of examinees who answered the question correctly. � The Strategic planning and Steering committee is established to analyze all reports received from different committees to check the recommendations and to analyze report to put the action plan and responsibilities. � (b.) Analyze the completion rates, grade distributions, and trends to determine strengths and recommendations for improvement.

iii. Trend analysis (a study of the differences, changes, or developments over time; normally

several years): The Exam Results Analysis Template was used to analyze the data. The analysis results for the average marks, the maximum marks and the failing rate were compared to those of Fall 2017. The results are given in appendix 1. 1. The Average Marks The distribution of the average marks is more clustered around 70% in Spring 2018 which is considered a good improvement in comparison to the Fall 2017. The number of courses with average marks more than 70% is dropped to 7 where it was 13 in Fall 2017. However, there are 8 courses below 60% that needs further discussion and improvements.

2. Maximum marks in courses Generally, most of the courses have maximum marks above 90%. However, there are 9 courses with maximum marks between the range of (75% - 89%) that needs further discussion and improvements. This is considered a drawback as compare to Fall 2017.

3. Passing Rates Number of courses with the passing rate above 95% increase in Spring 2018 as compare to the Fall 2017. However, the number of courses with the passing rate above 85% dropped as compared to the Fall 201

Annual Program Report, Ramadan 1438H, June 2017. Page13

2. Analysis of Significant Results or Variations (25% or more). List any courses where completion rates, grade distribution, or trends are significantly skewed, high or low results, or departed from policies on grades or assessments. For each course indicate what was done to investigate, the reason for the significant result, and what action has been taken. a. Courses EE305 Intro.

Significant result or variation Passing percentage is between 60% and 75% 71% 66.67% 66.67% 70% 66.6%

Investigation undertaken HoD discussed the results with the instructors Reason for significant result or variation Most of the students have weak mathematical and analytical skills. In some courses, the number of students is small; and consequently, statistical analysis of the results does not reflect the actual behavior in the course. Action taken (if required) More exercises and examples are to be given in the lectures and tutorial sessions. More office hours are afforded by the instructor to give students higher opportunity for individual contact. b. Courses

EE203 Electromagnetics

Significant result or variation Passing percentage is lower than 60% 58%

Investigation undertaken HoD discussed the results with the instructors Reason for significant result or variation Most of the students have weak mathematical and analytical skills. Electromagnetics course is a hard topic which needs a lot of imagination skills as well as mathematical and analytical skills. Unfortunately, the academic level of most of the students is very weak. Action taken (if required) More exercises and examples are to be given in the lectures and tutorial sessions. More office hours are afforded by the instructor to give students higher opportunity for individual contact. c.

College is in Temporarily building, not all supporting facilities for student available, for example, rest and study area

Students don’t have a suitable and quite space to study or work between classes. This will lead to a time waste for student.

To move to new building, this is expected to happen by the end of next year.

There are no qualified technicians for laboratories

The maintenance of laboratories saves precious time for teachers who will focus only on the transfer of knowledge during manipulations

Hiring qualified technicians for laboratories

High teaching loads for instructors

Instructors perform better with low teaching loads.

Hiring more faculty members

List priorities for improvement.

4.1 Y ***

Although learning outcomes are consistent with the National Qualifications Framework, an external review for the learning outcomes would be helpful. Graduating student surveys, employment outcome data, employer feedback and subsequent performance of graduates should be used.

4.2 Y *** Planning should include any action necessary to ensure that teaching staff are familiar with and are able to use the strategies included in

Annual Program Report, Ramadan 1438H, June 2017. Page23

the program and course specifications. The academic and/or professional fields for which students are being prepared should be monitored on a continuing basis with necessary adjustments made in programs and in course content and reference materials to ensure continuing relevance and quality

4.3 Y ***

Systems should be established for central recording and analysis of course completion and program progression and completion rates and student course and program evaluations, with summaries and comparative data distributed automatically to departments, colleges, senior administrators and relevant committees at least once each year. Quality indicators for the program are only compared with other programs in the institution and should be compared to other external benchmarks.

4.4 Y ***

Policies and procedures should include action to be taken to deal with situations where standards of student achievement are inadequate or inconsistently assessed. Effective procedures should be used to ensure that work submitted by students is actually done by the students concerned.

4.5 Y ***

Teaching resources should be sufficient to ensure achievement of the intended learning outcomes. The effectiveness of student academic counselling and advice processes should be evaluated through means such as analysis of response times and student evaluations. Particular attention should be given to preparation for the language of instruction, self-directed learning. Action should be taken to ensure that language skills are adequate for instruction in that language when students begin their studies. Feedback on performance by students and results of assessments should be given promptly to students and accompanied by mechanisms for providing assistance

4.6 Y ***

Effective orientation and training programs should be provided within the institution for new, short term and part time teaching staff. Textbooks and reference material should be up to date and incorporate the latest developments in the field of study. Textbooks and other required materials should be available in sufficient quantities before classes commence. Attendance requirements in courses should be made clear to students and compliance with these requirements monitored and enforced.

4.7 Y *** Teaching staff should be encouraged to develop strategies for improvement of their own teaching and maintain a portfolio of evidence of evaluations and strategies for improvement.

4.8 Y ***

All teaching staff should be involved on a continuing basis in scholarly activities that ensure they remain up to date with the latest developments in their field and can involve their students in learning that incorporates those developments.

4.9 Y

*** Intended learning outcomes from the field experience should be clearly specified and effective processes followed to ensure that those learning outcomes, and strategies to develop that learning, are understood by students and supervising staff in the field setting. Supervising staff in field locations should be thoroughly briefed on

their role and the relationship of the field experience to the program as a whole. Teaching staff from the program should visit the field setting for observations and consultations with students and field supervisors often enough to provide proper oversight and support. Students should be thoroughly prepared for participation in the field experience through briefings and descriptive material. Arrangements should be made through follow up meetings or classes for students to reflect on and generalize from their experience, relate it to studies previously undertaken, applying that experience to situations likely to be faced in later employment. Preparations for the field experience should include a thorough risk assessment for all parties involved, and plans should be made to minimize and deal with those risks.

Provide “direct assessments” for the current year’s program learning outcomes, according to the dates provided above (G.3). A key performance indicator (KPI) table is provided below. Each learning outcome should utilize a separate KPI table. Over the four (five/six) year cycle, all program learning outcomes are to be assessed and reported in the Annual Program Report(s). Note: Programs are to provide their own KPIs for directly measuring student performance. The KPI Assessment Table is used to document directly assessed program learning outcomes. Each program learning outcome should use a separate table. Direct assessments methods may include: national or international standardized test results, rubrics, exams and learning outcome grade analysis, or learning achievement using an alternative scientific assessment system (copy the KPI Assessment Table and paste to make additional tables as needed).

NOTE The following definitions are provided to guide the completion of the above table for Program KPI and Assessment.

KPI refers to the key performance indicators the program used in its SSRP. This includes both the NCAAA suggested KPIs chosen and all additional KPIs determined by the program (including 50% of the NCAAA suggested KPIs and all others). Target Benchmark refers to the anticipated or desired outcome (goal or aim) for each KPI.

Annual Program Report, Ramadan 1438H, June 2017. Page41

Actual Benchmark refers to the actual outcome determined when the KPI is measured or calculated. Internal Benchmarks refer to comparable benchmarks (actual findings) from inside the program (like data results from previous years or data results from other departments within the same college). External Benchmarks refer to comparable benchmarks (actual findings) from similar programs that are outside the program (like from similar programs that are national or international). KPI Analysis refers to a comparison and contrast of the benchmarks to determine strengths and recommendations for improvement. New Target Benchmark refers to the establishment of a new anticipated or desired outcome for the KPI that is based on the KPI analysis.

Result Analysis

Fall 2017(First Semester-1438/39)-Spring 2018(Second

Semester-1438/39)

The data for all the courses and labs in the department have been collected for the analysis. The

data was tabulated as shown in appendix 1. As a general remark it was noticeable the low passing

rate of four courses and extremely high passing rate (100%) of 12 courses. Those courses need

further discussion to know the reasons behind the extreme rates and set the action required. The

courses are tabulated below.

Criteria for analysis: -

The analysis is based on the average marks of the courses, the passing rates and the maximum

marks obtained

1. The average marks

The average marks distribution is based on the normal Gaussian distribution with the

center of the marks at 70%. Marks between 60 and 65 are considered normal otherwise some

special cases can be acceptable based on criteria such as the number of students in the course,

the level of the course and difficulty level of the course.

2. Maximum marks

Marks of student should be distributed normally with average centered around 70%. It

is considered acceptable for courses to have student with failing marks (below 60%) and student

with excellent marks above 90%. Courses with students obtaining 100% maximum marks, or no

excellent student (non-above 90%) and or no failing student (non-below 60%) need further

discussion or explanations.

3. Passing rate

Passing Rate varies among the different year level and the difficulty level of the

courses. Courses with 100% passing rates or below 60% passing rate need further discussion or

explanations.

4. The Lab marks

The Lab marks are excluded from the general analysis since it usually has different of

marks distribution.
