PROJECT WORK: TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES FOR ASSESSMENT
Project-based assessments are an alternative to tests that allow students to engage with their learning in more concrete ways. Instead of merely studying theory, a hands-on project asks students to apply what they've learned to an in-depth exploration of a topic. You can use projects as part of the ongoing learning process or as a capstone assessment in place of a traditional final exam.
Project-based assessment is often a component of project-based learning (PBL), in which the entire focus of a course or unit is to teach via student engagement in problem-solving and exploration. Like PBL, project-based assessment is student-centered and requires reflection on both the process and the content to be meaningful.

ABSTRACT : Teaching and learning is an infinite process. The process takes change by the time as according to the need of learner himself and societal needs. Now-a-days there is a vogue of using experiences in learning. The approach which is related to using experiences and correlate them with ones daily life is known as constructivism. Constructivist learning is based on students’ active participation in problem solving and critical thinking. It is affected by many school of ideas like Pragmatism, Existentialism and Reconstructionism with minor differences. It is a natural process of teaching and learning where teacher, learner, curriculum and assessment all revolves round the reality. It affects learners, social, psychological and emotional aspects to full extent. It is helpful in learning without burden. The purpose of this approach is to learn and teach happily and practically.
Environmental protection awareness refers to the understanding of environmental issues and the
importance of preserving the environment. It involves recognizing the impact of our actions on the
environment and the need for sustainable practices. The objective of this study is to investigate the
impact of environmental protection awareness interventions and strategies, considering locality and
media influence, on the environmental attitude of secondary school students. The study adopted a single
group pre and post-test experimental design method. In this study, a purposive sampling method was
used, selecting a focused group of 50 students from St. Joseph’s Matriculation School in Dindigul. This
study utilized various statistical techniques, including mean and standard deviation calculations for
dataset analysis. The t-test was used for comparing pre and post intervention scores, and percentage
analysis was conducted for understanding attitude changes. The study found that the environmental
education intervention positively influenced secondary school students' environmental attitude. After the
intervention, there was an overall increase in environmental attitude scores, indicating voluntary
participation in environmental activities, sharing of environmental knowledge, and preference for
environmentally-friendly products.
Mobile phones are a dominant form of information and communication technology, with India ranking second in the
global telecommunication market. Most individuals start using mobile phones from the age of 12 and technology
becomes an integral part of their lives. This research studied the impact of mobile phone use on the academic
performance of secondary school students in the Namsai district of Arunachal Pradesh. The study adopted a
descriptive survey research method with a sample size of 40 students from 4 selected schools, each contributing 5
boys and 5 girls by using stratified random sampling technique. A self-constructed scale with four points, referred to
as a Likert-type scale, entitled "Mobile Phone and Students’ Academic Performance of Secondary School
questionnaire, was employed in order to evaluate the utilization of mobile phones as well as the students’ academic
performance of secondary schools. The study's results showed significant impacts of mobile phone use on the
academic performance of students during the COVID-19 pandemic. It pointed out the negative effects of their usage,
such as distractions in academic work, health issues, and time loss. However, the study establishes that appropriate
usage of cellular device can provide benefits in academic performance.
Technology has greatly influenced the educational sector, not only supplemented in-class processes, but also transformed conventional teaching methods. In this context, the Flipgrid application has emerged as a powerful instrument which amplifies students' participation in learning. Particularly in the realm of mobile learning, Flipgrid has gained significant prominence in educational settings. Flipgrid, a versatile and innovative video discussion platform, has been gaining momentum in the realm of education. It delves into the pedagogical foundations of Flipgrid and provides insights into practical applications, demonstrating how it fosters active engagement, fluency, and effective feedback. By combining the benefits of technology and speaking practice, educators can empower students to become confident and proficient communicators in the digital age. Flipgrid is revolutionizing the way we approach oral communication, providing a platform that encourages students to voice their opinions, collaborate with peers, and enhance their speaking abilities. This article explores the role of Flipgrid in enhancing speaking skills among students. Introduction In an era defined by digital transformation, educators are constantly seeking ways to integrate technology into their teaching methods, catering to the needs and expectations of the modern learner. One such technological innovation that has garnered attention is Flipgrid.
The term "collaborative learning" (CL) refers to a broad range of educational strategies including the combined intellectual efforts of teachers and pupils. Students are typically required to work in groups of two or more, looking together for understanding, answers, or meanings or producing a product. People will be able to collaborate with someone far away just as readily as they would with someone in the same room thanks to the usage of ICT in CL. E-collaboration tool enable users to contribute a variety of abilities to group projects that remove time, distance, and resource limitations. Face-to-face engagement is still important, but ICT can enhance it by enabling communication at any time and from any location. ICT functions for group work coordination, tools for tracking progress and providing feedback, libraries of solutions and best practises, as well as meta data, are all available as collaborative technologies. In order to facilitate collaborative learning in all areas of education, the following technological tools can be used: wiki, online forums, chat, video conferencing, email, blogging, learning management systems, virtual classrooms, Sticky notes, etc.
The term ÄJerk Technology (JT) is widely used to get the attention of the learners and provides the
active, lively, interactive classroom atmosphere. Jerk Technology breaks out the boredom way of
traditional teaching by implementing the active learners. Each learner is unique and the way of
learning is divergent because of an Individual difference (Shobana.S, 2014). In teaching – learning
process, attention plays a vital role which the source for transferring the knowledge. The overall
outcomes of the study show that the effect of Jerk can use easily without any strain for teaching
grammar.The main purpose of the study is to find out the ÄEffect of Jerk Technology in Teaching of
Grammar among Higher Secondary School StudentsÇ. The researchers adopted a single group pre
and post - test design. The sample for the present study is of 32 pupils selected from the Government
Model Higher Secondary School, Allinagaram, Theni District. The pre – test is conducted using the
traditional fact to face instruction, but the post test is conducted using effect of Jerk Technology (JT).
The statistical procedures were employed descriptive analysis, mean S.D and t – test. The findings of
the study reveals that implementation of Jerk Technology is very effective for teaching Grammar.
Hence, the Jerk Technology (JT) is potentially the most powerful tool for extending platform in
Educational process.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Ancestors to Constructivism:
•Ancient Philosophers: Philosophers like
Socrates and Plato emphasized the importance
of active engagement in the learning process.
Socratic questioning encouraged learners to
critically think and construct their
understanding.
•Renaissance Period: Renaissance humanists
emphasized individual learning and exploration,
paving the way for learner-centered approaches.
3. Early Philosophical Foundations:
John Locke (17th century): Advocated the
"tabula rasa" concept, suggesting that individuals
are born with a blank slate and knowledge is
acquired through experiences.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau (18th century):
Proposed the idea of "natural education," which
suggested that education should respect the
individual's innate abilities and interests.
4. Constructivism
•Constructivism is a learning theory that states that
learners actively construct their own
knowledge and understanding of the world.
• This is in contrast to the traditional view of
learning, which is that knowledge is transmitted
from teacher to student.
5. Constructivism: Definitions
Jean Piaget: "Constructivism is the view that
knowledge is actively constructed by the
learner rather than passively received."
Lev Vygotsky: "The child learns through social
interaction with others, and that the social context
plays a major role in the construction of
knowledge."
John Dewey: "Learning is a process of inquiry, in
which the learner actively seeks to make sense
of the world around them."
6. Contd.,
Ernst von Glasersfeld: "Knowledge is not passively
received, but actively constructed by the individual
through their experiences."
Sandra Wilson: "Constructivism is a learning theory that
emphasizes the importance of the learner's active
participation in the construction of knowledge."
Kearsley, 1999: constructivism as a learning theory in which
learning is seen as an active process in which learners
construct new ideas or concepts based upon their current
and past knowledge
7. Principles of constructivism
Active Learning: Constructivism recognizes learning as a process of
actively making sense of information and experiences. Learners are
encouraged to be actively involved in their own learning process.
Prior Knowledge: Learners bring their unique prior knowledge,
experiences, and beliefs to a learning situation. This prior knowledge
serves as a foundation upon which new knowledge is constructed.
Social Context: Learning is most productive in a social context.
Constructivist learning environments encourage learners to work
together and engage in authentic activities and contexts.
8. Contd.,
Reflection and Meaning-Making: Learners reflect on their experiences,
create mental representations, and incorporate new knowledge into
their existing schemas. This promotes deeper learning and
understanding
Personal Construction of Knowledge: Constructivism believes that
learners actively construct or make their own knowledge. Reality is
determined by the experiences of the learner, and meaning is influenced
by the interaction of prior knowledge and new events
Facilitative Role of the Teacher: In the constructivist model, the
teacher functions as a facilitator who coaches, mediates, prompts,
and helps students develop and assess their understanding. The
teacher supports learners in constructing their own knowledge
9. Application of Constructivism in
Education
Constructivist Classrooms:
• Teachers facilitate collaborative learning
environments.
• Students actively participate in their own
learning.
• Teachers guide and support rather than solely
instruct.
• Learning groups are small and interactive.
10. Characteristics of Constructivist
Classrooms
• Shared knowledge between teachers and students.
• Teachers serve as guides and facilitators.
• Emphasis on student questions, interests, and
existing knowledge.
• Interactive learning, student-centered approach.
• Dialogue between teachers and students to construct
knowledge.
• Students often work in groups.
11. Benefits of Constructivist Classrooms:
• Promotes critical thinking, problem-
solving, and active engagement.
• Fosters collaborative skills and real-
world application of knowledge.
• Encourages student ownership of
learning process.
13. Trivial Constructivism
•Trivial constructivism, coined by Vorr Glasersfeld in
1990, is considered the simplest form of
constructivism.
•It aligns with the principle that learners actively
construct knowledge based on what they already
know.
•Learning is an active process where new knowledge
is built upon prior knowledge.
•Knowledge is not impersonal; it's tied to the learner
and is developed through personal construction.
14. Radical Constructivism:
•This is an approach that takes the concept of
constructivism to a more extreme level.
• Knowledge is entirely constructed by individuals
and that
• Learners create their own mental models based
on their experiences, and these models can differ
from person to person.
15. Personal and Social Constructivism:
•Personal constructivism focuses on individual
learners' cognitive processes and their ability to
construct meaning.
•Social constructivism, emphasizes the role of social
interactions and collaboration in knowledge
construction.
•It suggests that learning is enhanced when learners
engage in meaningful interactions with others and
collectively construct knowledge.
16. Objectivism and Constructivism
• Objectivism represents the idea that there is a fixed
reality or truth that exists independently of
individual perceptions.
• Constructivism, on the other hand, challenges this
notion by suggesting that knowledge is constructed
by individuals based on their experiences and
perspectives.
• These two viewpoints represent a philosophical
contrast, where objectivism assumes an external
truth, while constructivism focuses on internal
17.
18. Educational Practices
•Constructivism has transformed educational
practices:
• Student-centered classrooms.
• Active learning methodologies.
• Collaborative and experiential learning.
• Personalized and interactive technology-
driven learning.
19. Advantages
•Students are more engaged in the learning
process.
•Students develop deeper understanding of the
material.
•Students develop better problem-solving skills
•Students learn to work collaboratively.
•Students become more independent learners.
20. Limitations
•It can be time-consuming and resource-
intensive.
•It can be difficult to assess student learning.
•It may not be appropriate for all students.
21. JEAN PIAGET’S – Cognitive
constructivism
• Jean Piaget was a Swiss psychologist who developed the theory of
cognitive constructivism. Cognitive constructivism is a learning theory that
states that learners actively construct their own knowledge and
understanding of the world.
• Schema:
• A "schema" is a cognitive framework or mental structure that individuals
use to organize and understand their experiences and the world around
them.
• Piaget used the term "schema" to describe a person's understanding of
different aspects of their world.
• A schema is like a map or an outline that helps individuals make sense of
their experiences.
• Schemata are developed through experiences and observations, and
22. Contd.,
• Assimilation:
• Assimilation involves incorporating new information or
experiences into existing mental frameworks (schemata).
• It's the process of interpreting new information in a way that fits with
one's current understanding of the world.
• Accommodation:
• Accommodation is the process of adjusting or modifying existing
schemata to incorporate new information or experiences that don't
fit.
• It's about adapting one's cognitive structures to accommodate new
learning.
23. Contd.,
• Equilibration:
• Equilibration is the process of balancing assimilation and
accommodation.
• It's a drive to maintain a balance or equilibrium between existing
schemata and new information.
• Children and individuals strive to achieve a cognitive balance by
adjusting their schemata based on new experiences.
• Equilibration drives cognitive development and is seen when learners
refine their strategies to improve their understanding.
24. Educational Implications
Provide hands-on experiences: Students should be given
opportunities to learn by doing. This will help them to make
connections between their learning and their own experiences.
Allow for exploration and discovery: Students should be
encouraged to explore and discover new information on their
own. This will help them to develop their problem-solving skills
and to learn at their own pace.
Be sensitive to individual differences: Students learn at
different rates and in different ways. Teachers should be
sensitive to these differences and should provide instruction
that is tailored to the individual needs of each student.
25. Contd.,
Encourage active participation: Students should be
encouraged to participate actively in their own learning.
This can be done through discussions, debates, and
hands-on activities.
Provide feedback: Students should receive regular
feedback on their progress. This will help them to
identify areas where they need to improve and to make
progress towards their learning goals.
26. Lev Vygotsky’s – Social Constructivism
• He was born in Russia on November 17,
1896 and died on June 11, 1934 at the age
of 37.
• His work began when he was studying
learning and development to improve his
own teaching.
• He wrote on language, thought, psych
ology of art, learning and development
and educating students with special
needs.
27. Contd.,
•His experience, together with his interest in literature
and his work as a teacher, led him to recognize social
interaction and language as two central factors in
cognitive development.
•His theory became known as Socio-Cultural Theory of
Development.
28. Social Interaction
•Vygotsky emphasized that effective learning happens
through participation in social activities.
•Parents , teachers and other adults in the learner’s
environment all contribute to the process. They
explain, model, assist, give directions and provide feed
back.
•Peers, on the other hand, cooperate and collaborate
and enrich the learning experience.
29. More Knowledgeable Other
•The More Knowledgeable Other (MKO) is somewhat
self-explanatory; it refers to someone who has a
better understanding or a higher ability level than the
learner, with respect to a particular task, process, or
concept.
•Although the implication is that the MKO is a teacher
or an older adult, this is not necessarily the case.
Many times, a child's peers or an adult's children
may be the individuals with more knowledge or
experience.
30. Zone of Proximal Development
•The concept of the More Knowledgeable Other is
integrally related to the second important
principle of Vygotsky's work, the Zone of
Proximal Development.
•This is an important concept that relates to the
difference between what a child can achieve
independently and what a child can achieve
with guidance and encouragement from a
skilled partner.
31.
32. Contd.,
•Vygotsky (1978) sees the Zone of Proximal
Development as the area where the most sensitive
instruction or guidance should be given - allowing
the child to develop skills they will then use on their
own - developing higher mental functions.
33. Vygotsky and Language
• Vygotsky believed that language develops from social interactions,
for communication purposes. Vygotsky viewed language as man’s
greatest tool, a means for communicating with the outside world
• According to Vygotsky (1962) language plays two critical roles in
cognitive development:
• 1: It is the main means by which adults transmit information to
children.
• 2: Language itself becomes a very powerful tool of intellectual
adaptation.
34. Children do this by using language in three forms,
1. Social speech- talking to others
2. Private speech – this is speech directed to oneself by talking
aloud
3. Internalized private speech – (inner speech) the child can act
without talking aloud as self-regulation and thought begins to
develop.
35. Scaffolding
•The concept of scaffolding is closely linked to the
idea of ZPD. It means changing the level of
support as per the child’s need. During a teaching
session, a skilled teacher adjusts his/her
instructions as per the amount of guidance
required for the child to master the skill (Devries,
2001).
37. Vygotsky’s theory: Educational Implications
•Vygotsky’s theory has been appreciated and applied by
many teachers to the field of education (Rowe &Wertsch,
2004)
•Assess the child’s ZPD: skilled helper should present the
child with tasks of varying levels of difficulty to determine
the level at which instructions should begin.
•Use the child’s ZPD in teaching: teaching should begin
towards the upper limit of the child’s zone and one should
offer ‘just enough’ assistance or support only when
needed.
38. Contd.,
•Use more-skilled peers as teachers: children also benefit
from support of their skilled peers or children who are
slightly elder to them.
•Monitor and encourage children’s use of private speech:
in the elementary school years, encourage the child to
internalize and regulate their talk to themselves.
•Place the instructions in a meaningful context: provide
students with opportunities to experience learning in real
world setting
