Which of the following is not the objective of the continuous and comprehensive evaluation? Correct Answer To give some relief to the teachers from the burden of annual examination.

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation, commonly know as 'CCE' has been introduced as a school-based system of evaluation by the CBSE in 2009 with the enactment of the Right to Education Act.

• CCE refers to all-around development including both scholastic and co-scholastic aspects of a child's growth. It makes evaluation an integral part of learning through diagnostic and remedial teaching.

Key Points

• Objectives of CCE:
  • making learning a learner-centric activity.
  • Emphasizing continuity and regularity of assessment.
  • Mapping changes in the child’s learning and development.
  • Communicating the child’s progress to different stakeholders.
  • Enhancing learning through diagnostic and remedial teaching. 
  • Laying emphasis on thought processes and de-emphasize memorization.

Hint

• CCE emphasizes upon observing and recording the methods of learning to make teacher-pupils perform better rather than to give some relief to the teachers from the burden of annual examination.

Hence, it could be concluded that giving some relief to the teachers from the burden of annual examination is not the objective of the continuous and comprehensive evaluation.
