CBSE plans aptitude test after Class X Board exam

The Central Board of School Education CBSE has decided to hold an optional “Proficiency test” for the students of Class X in June 2010, said board chairman Vineet Joshi in Lucknow on Thursday. Joshi was at Millennium School in the city to attend a workshop held for CBSE principals who had come from about 60 schools across the state. The workshop is on the new pattern of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE).

Marks dead, CBSE Std X revolution on

Spending hours tracing the evolution of modern India's political landscape may not appeal to many 15-year-olds. But Michelle Oraa Ali, a Class X Sardar Patel Vidyalaya student, who says she usually "hates" studying, "loved" her social science assignment. She traced changes in Indian politics - from the years of undisputed Congress rule to today's coalition era - not through text-books, but veteran cartoonist R K Laxman's works.

Ali is part of the first batch of an estimated one million Class X Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) students who don't have to appear for next year's Board examination. Instead, their performance will be evaluated throughout the year, using innovative activities where students are encouraged to experiment and express themselves, along with traditional pen-paper tests - a combination labelled as Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE).
