THE BACKGROUND: • The Kothari Commission Report 1966 had stated that “the internal assessment or evaluation conducted by schools is of greater significance and should be given increasing importance. It should be comprehensive, evaluating all those aspects of students’ growth that are measured by the external examination and also those personality traits, interest & attitudes which cannot be assessed by it”. (9.84)
THE BACKGROUND: • National Policy on Education 1986 had also stated that ‘continuous and comprehensive Evaluation should incorporate both scholastic and non-scholastic aspects of evaluation spread over the total span of instructional time (8.24(iii))

Its position paper on Aims of Education – NCF 2005, NCERT says: School based CCE system should be established to… • Reduce stress on children • Make evaluation comprehensive and regular • Provide space for the teacher for creative teaching • Provide a tool of diagnosis & remediation • Produce learners with greater skills
Right to Education ActRTE - 2009 • On 27th August 2009, Govt of India adopted a new act “right to free and compulsory education for children between 6-14 years of age”. This law came into force for the entire country (except Kashmir) w.e.f 1st April 2010 • It states that students up to std. VIII should not be made to appear for any board examination • From the year 2010-2011, a scheme of continuous comprehensive evaluation to be implemented from Std. I to VIII
Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) • CCE refers to a system of school based evaluation of students that covers all aspects of student personality. It is a curricular initiative, attempting to shift emphasis from mere testing to Holistic Learning. • ‘Continuous’ means that the evaluation of identified aspects of students’ growth and development is a continuous process rather than an event. It is built into the total teaching learning process & spread over the entire academic session. • ‘Comprehensive’ mean the scheme attempts to cover both the scholastic and the co-scholastic aspects of students’ growth and development.
OBJECTIVES OF CCE:CORE OBJECTIVE: Continuity in evaluation & assessment of Broad based learning & behavioural outcomes • To help develop skills (Cognitive, Psychomotor & affective) • To lay emphasis of thought process & de-emphasize memorization • To make evaluation an integral part of teaching learning process • To use evaluation for improvement of students’ achievements • To guide teaching learning strategy on the basis of regular diagnosis followed by remedial instructions • To make the process of teaching & learning a ‘Learner Centred Activity’
BENEFITS OF CCE • Elimination of chance & subjectivity • De-emphasis of memorization • Encouragement of comprehensive evaluation covering scholastic and co-scholastic aspects • Continuous evaluation spread over the total span of the instructional time • Functional & meaningful declaration of results for effective use by all • Wider use of test results for improvement through diagnosis & remedial/enrichment programme • Improvement in the mechanics of conducting examination • Introduction of desired changes in instructional material & methodology • Use of grade in place of marks in determining the level of pupils’ performance and proficiency
WHAT IS EVALUATION? • It is the systematic collecting, analyzing and reporting of information about a students’ knowledge, attitudes, skills, intentions and/or behaviours regarding specific content, issues or experiences. • There are two kinds of evaluation • Formative Evaluation • Summative Evaluation
FORMATIVE EVALUATION • Definition: Evaluation taken at varying interval throughout a course to provide information and feedback that will help improve the quality of student learning and the quality of the course itself. • Goal: To monitor student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning. • Example: Asking students to submit 1 or 2 sentences identifying the main point of a lecture.
CONTINUOUS COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION • In order to achieve the core objectives of education, Formative Evaluation should aim at developing:
SUMMATIVE EVALUATION • Definition: Evaluation taken by students at the end of a unit or semester to demonstrate the ‘sum’ of what they have and have not learned. • Goal: To evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark. • Example: Assigning marks or a grade to a final exam.
SUMMATIVE EVALUATIONOBJECTIVES:1 ) To summarize the growth in the student’s personality from the information gathered at different stages during the academic year.2 ) To check whether the progress observed during the formative evaluation is retained or not.3 ) To decide and change the plan of teaching learning process by retrospection of the personality development.
