Envision a classroom where students aren't merely cramming facts for disgorging during exams. Instead, they're actively immersed in mastering tangible real-world skills. This isn't a scene from a futuristic
movie; it's a tangible transformation underway in classrooms nationwide, all thanks to the integration of Competency-Based Education and assessment by CBSE.
What is the Concept of Competency-Based Education? It is an approach towards, Teaching, Learningand Assessment.
Competency-Based Education (CBE) revolves around placing thelearner's achievement of desired learning outcomes at the forefront of the educational process. It prioritizes teaching, learning, and assessment techniques that actively engage students and empower them to acquire pertinent skills and knowledge. In CBE, instructional strategies are customized to enhance students' capabilities and provide them with a meaningful learning experience. This approach positions the learner as the focal point and
seamlessly integrates learning into their daily lives. Moreover, CBE underscores the practical application of acquired skills and knowledge in real-world contexts. By acknowledging the learning journey at the school level,CBE ensures that students are equipped with the competencies necessary for success beyond traditional academic settings.
It encourages holistic education by fostering skill development beyond traditional subjects, acknowledges diverse talents often overlooked in academics, and alleviates stress for students struggling with compulsory subjects. Additionally, it better prepares students for future careers by emphasizing practical skills valued in the workforce.
In summary, while the new CBSE rule presents avenues for students to nurture their passions and skills, its efficacy rests on meticulous implementation and integration into the broader educational framework. Ensuring robust guidance and support mechanisms is imperative for students to make informed choices about their academic trajectory and future aspirations.
