Educationists flay MCQ tests for polytech colleges
Chennai: The Directorate of Technical Education (DoTE) recently decided to reform assessment methods in polytechnic colleges, transitioning from descriptive type answers to MCQs from this academic year. Previously, the assessment system involved questions of two, three, five, and seven marks demanding descriptive answers. The reformed system increases emphasis on MCQs, even for questions that require application, analysis, and critical thinking. For internal theoretical assessments, number of MCQ questions (one mark) is double that of short answer questions. As for the end semester examination, the entire assessment (one-mark and two-mark questions) is MCQ-based. For theoretical-cum-practical exams, also known as practicum (integrated tests), equal weightage has been given to MCQs and theoretical questions (two marks and three marks), accounting for 50 marks. The remaining 50 marks come from practicals, as revealed by a perusal of the communication from DOTE accessed by TOI. While the directorate contends that the reform would help students move on from rote-based learning and help measure learning outcomes accurately, educationists says the measure is a smaller component of outcome-based education, which the NEP 2020 endorsed. "When the state itself is opposed to NEP, bringing about reforms outlined in the policy is wrong. Outcome-based education kills the spirit of learning. This is a failed model of evaluation. Thrusting this on students without consultating them is unfortunate," said Prince Gajendra Babu, general secretary, State Platform for Common Education System.

"Especially in a polytechnic setup, the weightage on practicals has to be increased. Focusing on MCQ-based assessment is opposite to the desired learning outcomes. Ideally, 95% of the questions should be comprehensive, providing a multi-dimensional assessment model for the student to analyse the problem," he added.

One-fifth of private TN polytechnic colleges opt out of admissions
CHENNAI: As many as 80 — or one-fifth — of the 401 private polytechnic colleges in Tamil Nadu have opted out of the admission process this academic year. The unprecedented development has brought to light the issues ailing polytechnic education — at private institutions in particular — where colleges and seats are aplenty, but takers few. According to officials of the Directorate of Technical Education (DoTE), of these 80 colleges, 35 have applied for permanent closure in the last two years, while the remaining have chosen not to admit students this year. 'Some of these colleges have failed to enrol students even in single-digit figures in the last three years. Hence, we have not asked them to join admissions,' said an official. Experts attribute the declining enrolment to the rising interest among students in engineering courses and the high fees charged by private polytechnic colleges. 'When a student can study a course in a government college for just Rs 2,500 a year, why would they want to spend Rs 30,000 in a private college,' said the principal of a private college in Coimbatore. P Selvaraj, secretary of the Consortium of Self-financing Professional, Arts and Science Colleges in TN, said private polytechnic colleges are struggling to fill even half their seats and operational costs are taking a toll on their survival.

Polytechnic admission round 2 list declared, July 24 last date for seat confirmation
The Directorate of Technical Education (DTE), Maharashtra, on July 22, released the second allotment list for admissions to diploma-level engineering (polytechnic) courses for the academic year 2025-26. This round marks a crucial phase in the Centralized Admission Process (CAP), as over 80% of applicants who filled preferences were allotted seats. These students are now required to report to their allotted institutes between July 23-24, along with original documents, to complete the admission process and confirm their seats. (REPRESENTATIVE PIC) According to official data, 63,460 candidates had filled their preferences for CAP Round 2, out of which 51,223 students have secured admission. These students are now required to report to their allotted institutes between July 23-24, along with original documents, to complete the admission process and confirm their seats. This year, a total of 63,788 seats were made available across government, government-aided, and private unaided polytechnic institutes in the state. The admission process began this year with 87,976 students being declared eligible for CAP rounds. In the second round, 63,460 students submitted preference forms, and out of them, a significant 80.30% have been allotted seats. The allotment data reveals that 28,902 students have been allocated one of their top three preferences. These students, along with those who have received a seat for the first time in this round, are required to accept the allotment and pay the fees. Once they do so, they will not be eligible for future CAP rounds. Candidates who are satisfied with their allotted seat, even if it is not from among their top three preferences, can freeze their choice. By doing so, they confirm their admission and will exit the CAP process. However, students who wish to wait for a better allotment in the upcoming round may choose the Not Freeze (Betterment) option. This allows them to retain the current allotment temporarily while still remaining eligible for higher preference seats in Round 3. In both cases, the student must first accept the seat and pay the requisite fee online before proceeding to the institute for final confirmation. DTE has clearly advised students to read instructions carefully, as any incorrect or false information submitted during admission could lead to cancellation of seat, and the student would then need to go through a grievance redressal process to correct the data. Once a student accepts the allotted seat by logging in to the official DTE admission portal and paying the acceptance fee, they must subsequently report to the allotted institute. The college will verify the student's original documents, update the admission status on the central portal, and issue a confirmation receipt along with the fee receipt. Admission is confirmed only after this step is completed. For students still waiting for a better allotment or those who did not receive a seat in Round 2, the next phases of the CAP process are critical. On July 25, the DTE will publish the list of remaining vacant seats after Round 2. Students can then fill in fresh preference forms for Round 3 on July 26 and 27. The third allotment list will be released on July 29, providing another opportunity to secure a seat in a preferred institute. DTE has urged students not to wait until the last moment to confirm their admissions. They must carry original documents, pay the prescribed fees, and complete all verification procedures within the specified timeline. Any lapse could lead to the cancellation of their allotted seat.
