Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about CO-linked lesson planning and approval workflows for colleges
How does lesson planning link to Course Outcomes (CO) under OBE?+
Each faculty lesson plan is created against a specific course assignment and linked to the Course Outcomes defined for that course. This ties day-to-day teaching delivery to the programme's outcome-based education framework, rather than treating lesson plans as a separate paperwork exercise.
What is the approval workflow for faculty lesson plans?+
Faculty submit their lesson plan, and it moves through a defined workflow of submit, review, and approve or reject. A timeline records every status change along with the person responsible, giving departments a complete history of how each plan was reviewed.
Can a college configure its own approval chain for lesson plans?+
Yes. The approval chain, review criteria, and notification settings are configured by the institution to match its departmental structure. This means HODs and coordinators can set up review stages that fit how their college actually works, without needing custom development.
How does the pending approvals dashboard help HODs and coordinators?+
The dashboard gives HODs and academic coordinators a single, consolidated view of every lesson plan awaiting review, along with faculty name, course, and submission date. This removes the need for manual tracking or chasing faculty individually for pending submissions.
Does lesson plan approval help with NAAC documentation?+
Since every lesson plan submission and approval is recorded with a timeline and responsible actor, the system builds a permanent, auditable record of lesson planning activity. This record serves as evidence for NAAC documentation and quality review of teaching governance.
