Roadmap: Key Highlights On Remaining Exams, Evaluation process and Results
•
Speaking on the most pressing matter, Dr.
Bhardwaj mentioned that the board is planning to resume the evaluation work
within 4 days of removal of the lockdowns. The board is considering the feasibility
of work from home for the evaluators. This, however, has not been finalized as
yet.
•
As for the evaluation work, the board
would be changing the process and involving all head examiners as well as the
assistant head examiners in the evaluation work. This would further hasten the
process of evaluation and help in timely results.
•
As for the pending examinations, officials
stated that the examination dates would be shared once approved by the Ministry
of Human Resource Development based on the situation. The 29 examinations,
officials shared, would be conducted. CBSE may, he added, conduct the exams
even on a Sunday to accommodate for the lost time.
•
CBSE would be finalizing the revaluation
policies and may also use the statistical tools as detailed in byelaws for
promotions, if required.
On Syllabus, attendance and evaluation in
the new academic session
•
Dr. Bhardwaj has clarified that the board
would not be deleting any chapters. Instead, chunks of the existing chapters
would be removed to reduce the syllabus for Classes 9 to 12. The same is being
worked upon by NCERT and would be conveyed to the schools soon
•
CBSE is also considering introduction of a
continuous evaluation like MCQs, school based examination for academic year
2020-21. (A notice hinting the same was shared with schools by CBSE, wherein
the board has asked teachers to focus on the new evaluation pattern and
learning outcomes).
•
CBSE has also asked schools to monitor the
attendance of their students and is contemplating making 75% attendance
mandatory for online classes. These would be considered for the board
examinations 2020-21.
•
For online classes, CBSE has advised the
schools to use the government portals for mass teaching. Portals like Diksha as
well as various broadcast channels are widely available for mass learning.
•
Also, for classes 11 and 12, CBSE’s new
mathematics subject, Applied Maths has started. The subject is applicable for
Commerce, Humanities and PCB students who do not wish to pursue technical
courses after their 12th.
Apart from these broad points, the CBSE
official also spoke about the importance of encouraging students to aim on
maximum outcomes. Teachers should also try and devise online classes in a
manner that suits both parents and students.
As for the syllabus for classes 1 to 8,
the board asked schools to reduce the same if they so required. More details
would be made available on the websites. Addressing the concerns of principals
regarding affiliation of schools, CBSE instructed schools to write to the board
for extension of the affiliation to the Secretary and request for extension
till June 30, 2020.
