OBE attendance 5% higher this time compared to 2020

Have improved system glitches over time: DU

Amid altered modes of teaching, learning and conducting open book examinations, Delhi University has said that attendance of students in the OBE held this year was 5% higher than that of last year. The OBE which was introduced last year, due to the ongoing pandemic had initially received complaints from students regarding glitches in the process. The university, however, said that over time, it had developed methods to improve the system. “The new examination system threw challenges now and then during its implementation, but the university learnt on the way to tackle each of them and improve the system in the process. Students were able to write their examinations within the comforts of their home or space and teachers were able to evaluate through electronic means,” read a varsity statement.
