Tracing challenges in the pathway of CBCS: A status study.

The education system in India is undergoing various changes to improve it. The Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) has been introduced in higher education, allowing students to select elective courses based on their interests. This system offers advanced learning opportunities, the flexibility to transfer between institutions, and improvements in academic quality. The CBCS is designed to meet the evolving socio-economic environment and the educational needs of future generations. However, its implementation has posed challenges for students, faculty, and institutions. Thus, the goal of this research is to analyze the challenges of implementing CBCS and researchers also surveyed the opinion of faculty members on CBCS. A study conducted on 140 faculty members of CSJM University, Kanpur, revealed that there is no significant difference in opinions on CBCS between Arts and Science faculty members. It also showed that there is a significant difference in opinions on CBCS between male and female faculty members. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
