Working Paper
In October 2009, the CBSE formally launched its Examination
Reforms by replacing the Class X board examination with a
School–based system of Continuous & Comprehensive Evaluation
(CCE).
Assessment of student learning through board examinations at

secondary level was marked with rote–memorization, urgency and
anxiety for the students. The newly introduced Continuous and
Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) as designed by CBSE has
divided evaluation till secondary level into ‘Formative
Assessment’ and ‘Summative Assessment’. Formative
Assessment being the continuous assessment of learner’s progress
through out the instructional process and summative assessment
being the conventional end of the term exam taken twice a year.
The CBSE Teacher’s Manual gives guidelines for organizing

formative assessment in the school for all subjects being offered
at secondary level. According to it the new component ‘Formative
Assessment’ is aimed at regular improvement of the learner’s
knowledge and skills. For this the teachers will monitor the learner
performance on a day-to-day basis with the objective to identify
the learning gaps (diagnosis) and offer customized remedial inputs
to the learners.
Since CCE has been implemented in all the CBSE affiliated schools
from October 2009 onwards, there is a felt and expressed need for
teacher training in the area of Formative Assessment. DPPI is
organizing a teleconferencing workshop on ‘Continuous &
Comprehensive Assessment: Designing Formative
Assessment Tasks’ for teachers of secondary level.
Objectives
The scope of the Examination Reforms by CBSE covers the entire
gamut of teaching-learning practices as evaluation (or assessment)
of student learning is envisaged as an integral aspect of day-to-day
teaching learning process. In order to successfully implement these
reforms in DAV Schools DPPI is organizing teleconferencing
sessions through IGNOU’s Gyan Darshan 2 Channel from
December 7-18, 2009 for all subjects to be taught at secondary
level. It is envisaged that by attending these interactive sessions
the teachers will -
• Be oriented in its basic philosophy of Continuous &
Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)
• Understand the concept of Formative Assessment of
student learning.
• Design Lesson- Plans in order to create learning conditions
that are conducive to stress-free assessment of student
learning.
• Learn Skills to develop tools and techniques of Formative
Assessment which are different from the usual pen and paper
test.
Resource Persons & Experts

Faculty from apex educational institutions such as NCERT, CBSE,
CIE and other Colleges of Education has been consulted in
designing these programmes. Subject-wise teams of bright and
creative teachers from prominent DAV Public Schools of Delhi have
been identified to work under the guidance of eminent resource-
persons and subject-experts to design exemplars of instructional
and assessment materials. DPPI faculty is coordinating the entire
initiative.
Publication
The subject-wise exemplars of instructional and assessment
materials produced by DPPI will be printed and circulated to all the
DAV Schools subsequently. The materials will also be uploaded at
the DAV Progressive Teachers Network, a social network site for
DAV teachers initiated by DPPI.
