OAT Review Report
OAT Review Report
1. Introduction
Outcome-Based Education (OBE) is an educational framework that prioritizes student
learning outcomes over traditional teaching methods.
The OAT (Outcome-Based Education Assist Tool) system at Puducherry Technological
University follows a Top-Down Design Approach, where broad educational goals (PEOs) are
defined first and then broken into specific, measurable outcomes (COs & POs).
The assessment process follows a Bottom-Up Approach, where student performance at the
course level is evaluated and aggregated to assess program-level achievements.
2. Purpose
The primary objective of the OAT system is to develop a web-based application that allows
faculty members to enter, manage, and generate student performance reports (CAT and
Assignments).
The system will also provide performance analysis and secure data backup for academic
records.
3. Scope
The system is designed exclusively for the Department of Computer Science and
Engineering.
4. Operating Environment
- Front-End: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap
- Middleware: PHP
- Database: MySQL
- Server: Apache Tomcat Server
- Compatibility: Chrome, Firefox, Edge
- Advanced Feature: Chatbot using Natural Language Processing (NLP)
11. Conclusion
The OAT system enhances academic assessment through structured data management,
automated report generation, and chatbot-based query resolution.
The integration of LangChain and cloud backup ensures seamless performance tracking and
secure data storage.
