EVALUATING STUDENT GRADES USING ANALYTIC NETWORK PROCESS

With an increase in number of students, universities and other academic institutions are facing the problem of designing a student grade evaluation system which is fair, transparent and efficient. Grades are equally important for students, teachers, and academic institutions as they represent the learning outcome of the student as well as the education system. The benefits of using computer technology in this regard are obvious. This paper suggests an analytic network process (ANP) based technique to evaluate students’ grades. For testing purpose the technique is used for grades evaluation of the students of the undergraduate computer science program offered by a university. The calculations in the proposed method are done by using super decision software.
