Green Digital Transformation Initiatives at Alliance University

Green initiatives in the exam area ..

World over climate change is creating a flutter as unnatural events occur and climate changes happen very frequently in different parts of the world. How do we cut our greenhouse gas emissions by half by 2030 and Netzero emissions by 2050 ? (as mandated by UN SDG 2015) ..

We talk about Digital Transformation unmindful and ignorant whether these transformations are green and improve our lives for the better ?

Firstly these digital transformations have to come out from our homes and work area. It is through these initiatives that we are able to convince others of the efficacy of Digital Transformation. That is the best way we can convey the meaning of Digital Transformation measures.

Accordingly we initiated an Green Digital Transformation initiative in the AU Examination process satisfying United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #11 (SDG) 2015.

The immediate advantage is less use of paper and stationery. We are giving a live model to the student community and the community at large at what are sustainable initiatives that we undertake at the University.

Students at Alliance University took a computer based Mid-semester exam (MSE) in computer lab for Logistics and Supply Chain Management subject of semester 2 MBA Operations of the Alliance School of Business using Moodle e-learning LMS at the AU portal site on 19 September 2019 from 2 - 4 PM.

Section A - objective type

Section B - short answer type

Section C - case analysis 

While quizzes in Section A give results immediately, sections B and C need faculty intervention to read and evaluate answers. You are welcome to witness history in the making in Alliance University totally doing away with physical answer sheets ..

We are hopeful that more and more faculty members from the different schools will take to this digital model.

Way to go 🙏🙏
