Engineering education in India is going through several quality issues such as increased un-employabillty among the passed graduates, unscientific selection processes which fail to find the right students with engineering aptitude, lack of availability of quality teachers in colleges etc. Of which, lack of quality teachers in engineering colleges is of primary concern among researchers in academia. However, the efforts to deal the quality issues by non-governmental organizations and researchers both at the social and engineering circles give some rays of hope. One such study is a proposal for training budding engineering teaching aspirants under the domain of a service titled Indian Technical Educational Service (ITES), in line with the three All India Service (IPS) and Indian Foreign Service (IFS). The objective of this paper is to suggest a structure for a national academy for ITES.Keywords

Computing education necessitates programming skill. But it varies in students. How can we quantify or measure the skill? We are yet to have a standardized measurement system for the programming ability. The concept of Programmer Quotient (PQ), which gives a measure of innate programming ability, attributes a value to one's ability to program, just like Intelligence Quotient (IQ). This would remain the same independent of the programming experience. In this paper, we consider few inherent skills such as Analytical ability, ability to synthesize etc. and try to correlate these skills to one's programming ability. A questionnaire was designed and used to measure the skill in these areas. Then a model was designed from the data collected. It can predict the programming skills of a student from his/her inherent skills, irrespective of the programming language.Keywords

The two major contributing entities in any education system are the educators and the learners. This system can be made effective when there is continuous, reliable and valid feed backs from the teacher to the learner and vice-versa. This paper proposes a methodology to elicit and use feed backs from teachers and learners as a mechanism to improve effectiveness of teaching and learning. This is an on going work which is broken down into three phases for simplicity, management and better cohesion. The paper points out a set of prominent parameters to assess educators and learners. These parametric values are collected in the first phase and are properly communicated with the educator as well as the learner. Then in the second phase both of them incorporate the required changes in the teaching-learning process and again these parametric values are collected and analysed to see the progress. The final phase is an automated one which uses the information from the first two phases to develop a Personalised Learning Environment.Keywords
