The school acknowledges the aforesaid and plans to introduce

concepts and teaching techniques which could help the children

realize their potentialities, imbibe good values and apply learning

into action.

Interactive learning by peer group teaching use of over head

projectors, power point presentation, work sheets and backup

sheets based on given study material over and above „Activity

Based Learning‟ ABL will be the highlights of our teaching

strategy.*Modern concepts of mass media ,journalism ,economic

management, fashion world, financial management, share trading

, banking, biotechnology , nano technology , astro physics ,

industrial , microbiology ,information technology , MMWT , IP

are being included in the syllabus for updating of student‟s

knowledge and skills. You can teach a student a lesson for a day

but if we teach him/her to learn by creating curiosity, he/she

will continue the learning process for ever. Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation

(CCE) The larger context of education is to prepare futuristic citizens

for a meaningful and Productive life in a globalised society.

There is a dire need to strengthen the Education system even

more so in s pluralistic society which addresses itself to a

Heterogeneous group. Evaluation is a means of realizing the

extent to which we have been successful in imparting such an

education. Evaluation is an indispensable part of the educational

process as some prom of assessment is necessary to determine

the effectiveness of teaching learning processes and their

Assimilation by learners.

External examinations‟ are largely inappropriate for the

knowledge society‟ of the 21stcentury and its‟ need for innovative

problem solvers‟, Questions if not framed well,” call for rote

memorization and fail to test higher-order skills like reasoning

and Analysis, lateral thinking, creativity and judgment. External

exams make no

Allowance for different types of learners and learning

environments and induce an In-ordinate level of anxiety and

stress.”

This calls for a functional and reliable system of school-based

evaluation.

We need to look at the holistic assessment of a learner which

also includes co-Scholastic area of life skills, attitudes and

Values, sports and games as well as Co-curricular activities. The

CCE scheme aims at addressing this in a holistic manner.

The CCE in classes IX & X is intended to provide holistic profile

of the Learner through evaluation of both scholastic and Co-

scholastic areas spread over two Terms each during two

academic years.

Evaluation of Scholastic areas:

Each term will have two formative assessments and summative

assessments

For evaluation of scholastic areas.

Flyers1 3

Formative Assessments:

Formative assessment is a tool used by the teachers to

continuously monitor student progress in a non-threatening and

supportive environment. It used effectively it can improve

student performance tremendously while raising the self-esteem

of the child and reducing the work load of the teacher. Some of

the main features of Formative Assessments are that it is

diagnostic and remedial, provides effective feedback to student,

allows for the active involvement of students in their own

Learning, enable teachers to adjust teachings to take account of

the results of Assessment and recognizes the profound

influence that assessment has on the motivation and self-esteem

of students, both of which are crucial influences in Learning .Ex.

quizzes, conversations, interviews, oral testing, visual testing

,project, practical‟s& assignments.

Summative Assessment

The summative assessment is the terminal assessment of

performance at the end of instruction .under the end term

summative assessment, the students will be tested internally

based on the following criteria:-

(a) Curriculum and syllabus as circulated by the board.

VISHVAKARMA (General Awareness Test)

The various forms of objective questions:

The questions in the papers will be of different types. The recent trend is to

incorporate several complex formats based on graphs, maps, charts, diagrams

or tables to test the candidate's knowledge of a subject in depth. The

candidate is required to understand clearly what is wanted before choosing

the answer. Some such types of questions are given below as examples:

TYPE I : Multiple selection or Multiple completion format.

Example 1 :

Viruses may be classified under :

I. Protozoa

II. Actinomycets

III. Cyanobacteria.

(a) I (b) II or III (c) I or II (d) None

Ans. (d)

Example 2:

The chemical digestion of food takes place in which of the following

combinations?

(a) Mouth & gullet

(b) Mouth, stomach & small intestine

(c) Small and large intestine

(d) Mouth & large intestine

Ans.(b)

TYPE II. Chronological /Sequential Format

Example 1:

Which response gives the correct chronological order of the dynasties of the

Delhi sultanat?

I.Khalji IILodi III.Sayyid IV.Tughlaq

(a)I, II, III, IV

(b)I,IV,III,.II

(c)I,III,IV, II

(d) IV, I, II, III

Ans.(b)

TYPE III Matching format

Example 1.

Choose the response in each case which correctly matches the items in both

columns:

a.Brahmo Samaj 1.Discarded worship of images

(b)A-2,B-1,C-3,D-4

(c)A-1,B-2,C-4,D-3

(d)A-2,B-3,C-4,D-1

The candidate is here expected to respond simultaneously to four

different items and choose the response without being confused.

Extra care must be taken while solving these questions, as most of

the options may seem nearly correct.

TYPE IV Assertion - Reason Format

An increasingly popular format with the examiner is the Assertion - Reason

questions. This type consists of two statements - one an assertion (A)

followed by another called a Reason (R). Based on a code given, the candidate

has to decide whether the assertion and reason are individually correct or

not; if both are correct, whether the reason correctly explains assertion or

not.

Example 1:

Assertion (A) : Indian economy is referred to as a 'mixed economy'.

Reason (R) : Indian government recognizes the relative importance of both

public as well as private sectors in the process of economic development.

MARK

(a)If both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

(b)If both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A

(c)If A is true but R is false.

(d)If A is false but R is true

A

ns.(a)

Here it is not enough for the candidate to know whether a statement

is by itself correct or not. He must know the consequences and

causes.

TYPE V Figures / Tables format

Questions based on maps pertaining to history or geography may be

asked.

in the Summative Assessment II of Class IX : The question paper in each main subject will have a separate section of 10 marks for open

text-based assessment (OTBA). The OTBA section will comprise of text material

accompanied by 2-3 questions based on that text. The questions based on text will be of

higher order thinking skills requiring students to apply learning’s to the situation given in the

article/report/mind-mapping/case study/draw inference /conclusions etc. The questions based

on the text will be open ended ,extrapolative, inferential and look at personal response and

justifying a point of view. With the addition of OTBA of 10 marks , the total paper of

summative assessment in a subject will be of 100 marks.

The Board has amended its examination Bye-Laws to make it mandatory for students to appear in

both the Summative Assessments and score a minimum of 25% marks in aggregate i.e. (SA I+SA

II) in these assessments w. e. f. 2013-14.

The Board has also initiated Assessment of Speaking and Listening Skills (ASL) and Open Text

Based Assessments (OTBA) from the academic session 2013-14 in class IX and class XI to focus

on communicative aspects of language learning and problems based on higher order reasoning

skills.

In the light of above initiatives, the Performance Profile for class IX for this year is slightly

modified (enclosed with this circular). The following points are highlighted in this regard:

1. There is no change in the criteria for working out the overall result i.e. marks obtained in both

the SAs will be totalled and then converted into respective grade as per the existing scheme.

2. The grades „E1@‟ or „E2@‟ will indicate that candidate has obtained less than 25% mandatory

marks in Summative Assessments

3. The grade scored in the Assessment of Speaking and Listening Skills (ASL) in English will be a

part of Summative Assessments I and II (70+20) and will be reflected as an aggregate grade in

the Performance Profile. A detailed notification in this regard has been issued to schools and is

also available at the website www.cbseacademic.in.

4. As Open Text Based Assessment (OTBA) will be a part of the Summative Assessment-II

question paper, there will be no need for calculating grades in the subjects containing OTBA

separately.

5. The total marks of the question papers for the subjects having OTBA (English, Hindi,

Mathematics, Science and Social Science) in the Summative Assessment II will be 100 and the

timing will be 3-3½ hours. The overall marks obtained in these subjects will be multiplied by 0.3

to make it 30% which is the weighting for Summative Assessments II. For the subjects which do

not have OTBA element, the question paper will be of 90 marks and the process for computing

30% weighting will remain the same as followed in the previous year i.e. division by 3 to make it

30%.

6. The instruction regarding obtaining 25% mandatory marks in the Summative Assessments

(both the SA I and SA II taken together), ASL, OTBA and skill based vocational subjects under

National Vocational Education Qualification Framework (NVEQF) have been added in the Scheme

of Studies given at the back of the Performance Profile.

7. If mandatory 25% marks have NOT been obtained in the Summative assessments in a subject,

Grade E1 or E2 will NOT be upgraded
