CCE
- The 'continuous' aspect of CCE takes care of 'continual' and 'periodicity' aspect of evaluation.
- Continual means assessment of students in the beginning of instruction (placement evaluation) and assessment during the instructional process (formative evaluation) done informally using multiple techniques of evaluation.
- Periodicity means assessment of performance done frequently at the end of unit/ term (summative)
- The 'comprehensive' component of CCE takes care of assessment of all round development of the child's personality. It includes assessment in Scholastic as well as Co-Scholastic aspects of the pupil's growth.
- Scholastic aspects include curricular areas or subject specific areas, whereas co-scholastic aspects include Life Skills, Co-Curricular Activities, Attitudes, and Values.
- Assessment in scholastic areas is done informally and formally using multiple techniques of evaluation continually and periodically.
- Assessment in Co-Scholastic areas is done using multiple techniques on the basis of identified criteria, while assessment in Life Skills is done on the basis of Indicators of Assessment and checklists.
