I N T R O D U C T I O N Teaching and evaluation have long been taken together in our education system. Whenever there is teaching, a test to assess what the student has learnt will definitely follow. But in our past practices, the area of assessment has been often too narrow i.e; limited to the cognitive domain only and the objective of assessment has been just to declare how much the student has learnt. Moreover, there were only three tests in a year and on the basis of these three tests the decision was taken to promote the student in to the next class or to retain him/her in the same class. This encouraged rote learning and use of unfair means to pass the examination. The real learning had always been ignored. Now, with the introduction of continuous and comprehensive evaluation from class III onwards, a positive shift is being expected from rote learning to learning by doing. Continuous evaluation through various activities, worksheets, projects etc. will definitely help the students learn better, reduce mental stress and discourage the use of unfair means. Moreover, the learning area will expand from 'only the cognitive domain' to all the three domains i.e., cognitive, psychomotor and affective. With this approach one can think of realization of the aims of science education as stated in NCF 2005. Aim of Science Education as per the guidelines of NCF 2005 The general aim of science education follow directly from the six criteria of validity: cognitive, content, process, historical, environmental and ethical. Science education should enable the learner to •

know the facts and principles of science and its applications, consistent with the stage of cognitive development,



acquire the skills and understand the methods and processes that lead to generation and validation of scientific knowledge,



develop a historical and development perspective of science and to enable her to view science as a social enterprise,



relate to the environment (natural environment, artifacts and people), local as well as global, and appreciate the issues at the interface of science, technology and society,



acquire the requisite theoretical knowledge and practical technological skills to enter the world of work,



nurture the natural curiosity, aesthetic sense and creativity in science and technology,



imbibe the values of honesty, integrity, cooperation, concern for life and preservation of environment, and



cultivate 'scientific temper' - objectivity, critical thinking and freedom from fear and prejudice.

In order to realise the aim of science education, the content at the secondary stage has been organised around themes that are potentially cross-disciplinary in nature. These themes are: ? Food, ? Materials, ? The world of the living, ? How things work, ? Moving things, ? People and ideas, ? Natural phenomena and ? Natural resources.

Modalities of Assessment Role Plays, Crossword Puzzle, Flow Charts, Popular Science, Book Review, Field Trips, Class Work/Home Work Assignments, Group Work, Survey, Project Work, Worksheets, Games and Multiple Choice Questions.

Suggested Assessment Tools and Techniques Any of the following assessment tools and techniques may be used for carrying out different formative assessments.

Class Response Assessment worksheets ? Demonstration based ? Graph based ? Diagram based ? Numerical based ? Flow chart ? Crossword puzzle/games ? Writing of Balanced chemical Equations / Formulae/Units ? MCQs

8.

Active-learning assessment tools ? Model making ? Chart making ? Assignments ? Popular Science Book Review ? Current Science events/news report

Hands-on practical examination Class work/home work Assessment Group work - Seminar/Symposium/Presentation/Bulletin Board Display/Role Play Survey/Field Visit Project Work-Group or individual Short formal written Paper-pen test

Important Hands-on practical examination may be necessarily conducted once in each term. Class work and Home Work assessment may also be conducted necessarily once in each term. It is suggested that for science, at least one out of four formative assessments in the year are experiments. Any one formative assessment may include one short written paper-pen test/hands-on practical examination and a maximum of two other assessments using any of the above suggested tools. The average of these assessments may be calculated out of 10%. Due care may be taken to ensure that students are not put to any stress due to over assessment in the form of Formative Assessments.

Record Keeping It is absolutely essential that teachers maintain a clear record of the formative assessments conducted because they will be verified by CBSE from time to time. The following points have to be kept in mind while recording FA. •

Individual report book as suggested by CBSE has to be maintained in addition to student report form.



A separate consolidated marks register must be maintained reflecting the following for each student. -

Tools of Formative Assessment (quiz, MCQs, debate, group discussion, creative writing, presentation etc) must be recorded.

-

Maximum marks, marks obtained and weightage for 10 marks for each of the four formative assessments must be maintained.

-

Cumulative total in FA must be calculated and recorded.

School may devise a suitable format for the marks register. Many schools are computerising the entire process of recording the assessments. While evolving such a programme, care may be taken to ensure that all the relevant particulars are included in the programme. Lesson wise activities and tips for Formative Assessment
