student performance measured in CO-PO (Course Outcome and Program Outcome) attainment for OMR based answer sheet automation playing very curtail role in pupil concert analysis in this approach. In the proposed work, marks evaluation sheet is consider as input image, then apply frame cropping technique to extract the marks filled table by subdividing into cells as individual images by frame cropping technique. In order to recognition of hand written digit in each frame, various machine learning models are adopted, trained. Experimental results from proposed work show that convolutional neural network excels higher in identification digits from frames. The outputs are then converted to CSV version, which is used to evaluate CO-PO attainment for each learner. The experiments have been conducted and tested in proposed work on various machine learning techniques and compared the results to pick the optimal model

The assessment of program outcomes for ABET accreditation has become a challenge for engineering programs nationwide. Various methods and approaches have been investigated to develop good practices for program assessment. At South Dakota State University (SDSU), an approach called Faculty Course Assessment Reports (FCAR) has been explored for mechanical engineering (ME) program assessment. FCAR provides an assessment tool to correlate the ME program outcomes with the outcomes of the core ME courses, and to evaluate student performance at the course level based on ABET outcome criterion. This process begins with the development of course objectives and outcomes. Then these course objectives and outcomes are directly mapped with the ME program objectives and outcomes respectively. Further the quantitative and qualitative details generated in the FCAR are lined up directly to ABET program outcome a to k criterion through FCAR rubrics. By use of the FCAR process, all ME program outcomes are evaluated at the course level based on the ABET program outcomes. The assessment results are being used for improvement of the ME curriculum. The process was developed to provide an effective tool for the ME program outcome assessment at the course level with reasonable effort.
