What is CCE?

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation is a process of assessment, mandated by the Right to Education Act of India in 2009. Emphasizing continuity and regularity of assessment. The main aim of CCE was to evaluate every aspect of the child during their presence at the school.

CCE Refers:

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) refers to a system of school-based evaluation of students that covers all features of students’ development. It is a developmental process of assessment that stresses two-fold objectives i.e. continuousness in evaluation and assessment of broad-based learning and behavioural outcomes on the other. According to this scheme, the term 'continuous' is meant to accentuate that the evaluation of identified aspects of students’ growth and development is a continuous process rather than an incident, built into the total teaching-learning process and spread over the whole duration of the academic session.

The second term `comprehensive’ means that the scheme tries to cover both the scholastic and the co-scholastic aspects of students’ growth and development.

It is important to go through the Study Notes of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation for better exam preparation. The following are the aims of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE):

• The main aim of CCE was to assess every aspect of the child during their presence at the school.
• CCE helps in minimizing the stress on children.
• Make assessment comprehensive & regular.
• Provide space for the teacher for prolific teaching.
• Provide a tool for detection & corrections.
• Produce learners with greater skill

Various are the objectives of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation:

• It makes the process of teaching and learning a learner-centred activity.
• To make the assessment process an essential part of the teaching-learning process.
• To make a fair judgment and take timely decisions for learner’s growth, learning process, learning pace, and learning environment.
• To provide scope for learners for self-assessment.
• To use the evaluation process for improving students’ achievement through detection and correction.

 

 

There are many functions that CCE performs. Some of them are listed below:

• CCE helps the teacher to systematize efficacious teaching strategies.
• Continuous evaluation serves to detect weaknesses and permits the teacher to ascertain certain individual learners.
• Through continuous assessments, students can know their strengths and weaknesses.
• CCE helps in identifying changes in attitudes and value systems.
• CCE provides information on the progress of students in scholastic and co-scholastic areas which results in forecasting the future success of the learners.

Aspects of CCE

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation considers both the scholastic and co-scholastic aspects.

 Scholastic Assessment

Scholastic aspects include curricular areas or subject-specific areas. These areas focus on oral and written class tests, cycle tests, activity tests, and daily class performances of all subjects to improve writing and speaking skills. Scholastic assessment should be both Formative and Summative.

Formative Assessment

The formative assessment consists of diagnostic testing, which is the extent of formal and informal assessment procedures conducted by teachers during the learning process to alter teaching and learning activities to improve student achievement. It typically involves qualitative feedback for both student and teacher that is the basis of the details of content and performance. It is commonly compared with summative assessment, which attempts to monitor educational outcomes, often for purposes of external responsibility.

Features of Formative Assessment:

• It makes provision for effective feedback.
• It provides a plan for the active involvement of students in their learning
• It helps the student to support their peers’ group and vice-versa.
• It helps in integrating diverse learning styles to decide how and what to teach.
• co-scholastic aspects include Life Skills, Co-Curricular Activities, Attitudes, and Values.
• It provides the student with a chance to improve their scores after they get feedback.
• It helps in the detection and correction of the assessment process.

Summative Assessment

Summative assessment is an assessment of students where the focus is on the consequences of a program. The goal of summative assessment is to assess student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against a norm.

Features of Summative assessment:

• It can be done at the end of a unit or semester to display the sum of what they learn or whatnot.
• This is the contrast to formative assessment, which summarizes the participants' development at a particular time.
• It is a conventional way of assessing students' work.

 Co-scholastic Assessment

Co-Scholastic Areas of Assessment: The areas of Co-scholastic assessment focus on increasing the skills of a student in general knowledge, environmental education, physical education, art, music and dance, and computers. These are evaluated through quizzes, competitions, and activities. 

A school-based continuous and comprehensive evaluation system helps a learner in the following ways:

• It reduces stress on children.
• It makes evaluation comprehensive and regular.
• It provides a tool for the detection and correction of action.
• It provides space for the teacher for creative teaching.
• It produces learners with greater skills.
