CBSE to
introduce internal assessment Rohtak, February 24 The internal assessment will be to the extent of 20 per cent of the total marks of the subject. This paradigm shift from the examination-focused evaluation system to a broad-evaluation of skills of the learner throughout the year in the classroom is a part of the board’s continuing exercise that seeks to comprehensively judge various faculties of students. This exercise has been undertaken to remove disparities in the evaluation process that focuses only on external examination. In a communication to the principals of affiliated schools, the CBSE Director (Academic), Mr G. Balasubramanian, said though initially internal assessment was being introduced only in social sciences but the board planned to cover other subjects in due course. Under the new plan every student in classes IX, X will be evaluated internally by the school and will be graded on the basis of various skills developed by him or her during the learning process. The first batch of students under this methodology will appear in the secondary school examinations to be held in March 2006. This evaluation is supposed to be continuous and these grades would be reflected in the secondary school certificates of the candidates issued by the board after the secondary level examinations. The evaluation would be done as per the guidelines and format given by the board. The board would provide a detailed framework of the methodology to be adopted by the schools shortly. Dr S.C. Singh, Principal of the local Model School, welcomed the change in the evaluation system. He said learning would become more purposeful and meaningful if the system was implemented properly. At the same time he warned of the inherent danger of the misuse of the new system by schools to exploit the students as was being done in practical examinations. It was for the board to see that the new method was implemented properly, he added. |
