Measurement, evaluation and Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)

Understand

Measurement only gives a number: 'Ravi scored 32 out of 50'. Evaluation adds qualitative description and a value judgement: 'good progress, needs practice in fractions'. So evaluation is broader than measurement.

Evaluation = measurement (quantitative) + qualitative description + value judgement

Word in CCEMeaning
ContinuousRegular assessment throughout the session — during teaching, not only at the year's end
ComprehensiveBoth scholastic (subjects) and co-scholastic (life skills, attitudes, values, health, arts) areas

Rule

Section 29 of the RTE Act names comprehensive and continuous evaluation in the curriculum and evaluation procedure.

Example

Alongside maths marks, the teacher also notes the child's co-operation, cleanliness and drawing → the 'comprehensive' side of CCE.

Common mistake

Taking 'comprehensive' to mean 'all chapters of the syllabus'. Comprehensive = both scholastic and co-scholastic areas.
