Mumbai University students will soon be able to see the corrected answer sheets online
Mumbai University is gearing up to make the corrected answer sheets available online, said Vice Chancellor Suhas Pednekar and after this, the students will be able to view their corrected sheets without having to apply for the re-evaluation. Pednekar said that the university is working on making the scanned copies available to the students via an online portal. “We are planning to create a portal for students where they can view all their answer sheets free of cost. All they would need is a login ID and password. We will start this soon on an experimental basis,” he said. Currently, students have to apply with the Board of Examination and Assessment for re-evaluation and also have to pay the fees for the same. Pedneka further added “the university administration was convinced that the onscreen assessment system worked fine now after a flurry of reforms was introduced earlier this year. For the summer semester exam, held between April and June, around 11.21 per cent of the answer sheets remain to be assessed. Of the 16.62 lakh papers to be evaluated, the university has been able to correct 14.76 lakh papers.” Arjun Ghatule, acting director, Board of Examination and Assessment, said majority of the unchecked papers belong to the students from Institute of Distance and Open Learning (IDOL) and postgraduate students. As of now, the university has only been able to declare the results of 151 of the 490 examinations it conducted between April and June. Most of the pending results are from the science stream. Ghatule said “the results of major examinations such as B Com and BA were out and the rest will be announced soon.” “We are checking the viability of assessing answers sheets using laptops. We are looking at the security challenges. If it works out, it will be very convenient for teachers… to correct answer sheets,” said Pednekar.
