Features of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)
- The continuous and periodicity aspects of assessment are handled by CCE’s “continuous” component.
- Continuous evaluation refers to the informal use of a variety of evaluation tools to examine students before training (placement evaluation) and during it (formative evaluation).
- It aids the instructor in organising efficient instructional techniques.
- Periodicity refers to the performance evaluation carried out after a unit or term (summative).
- The ‘comprehensive’ part of CCE handles the evaluation of the child’s whole personality development.
- It involves an evaluation of the student’s development on both the academic and co-curricular levels.
- Curriculum-related or subject-specific regions are considered scholarly elements, whereas co-curricular activities, attitudes, and values are considered co-scholarly.
- Informally and formally, many assessment approaches are used continuously and sporadically to assess academic domains. The diagnostic assessment happens after the unit/term test. Utilizing diagnostic testing, the root reasons for subpar performance in some units are identified. These are then followed by the proper interventions and corrective actions.
- As opposed to life skills, where evaluation is based on indicators, co-curricular fields are assessed using a variety of methodologies based on established criteria.
