Speech on cce pattern a boon to student

Answer 1

Good morning everyone present here. Distinguished guests, learned jury, and my dear fellow students, I stand here to expatiate on CCE Pattern A Boon To Students.' Before proceeding any further, let me here give you a brief description about CCE.

CCE refers to a system of school based evaluation of student that covers all aspects of student development. The major emphasis of CCE is on the continuous growth of students ensuring their intellectual, emotional, physical, cultural and social development and therefore it will not be merely limited to assessment of learner’s scholastic attainments. CCE uses assessment as a means of motivating learners to provide feedback and do follow up to further improve upon the learning in the classroom and to present a comprehensive picture of a learner’s profile. It is an activity-based learning methodology that divides the academic year into two terms, SA1 and SA2 that are further divided into FA1, FA2 under SA1; and FA3, FA4 under SA2. Thus the burden of learning so many chapters of all the different subjects near the examination has been considerably reduced.

 Formative Assessment is very potent and innovative tool of this new policy. It is a tool used by the teacher to continuously monitor student progress in a non threatening, supportive environment. It involves regular descriptive feedback, a chance for the student to reflect on the performance, take advice and improve upon it. It involves the students’ being an essential part of assessment from designing criteria to assessing self or peers. I strongly feel If used effectively, it can improve student performance tremendously while raising the self esteem of the child and reducing the work load of the teacher. The students are the beneficiaries; teachers too. It will improve the quality of education in our country.   
Therefore I appeal to all the educationists to implement this new methodology in true spirit and enthusiasm.
