Emoji For Evaluations CBSE Schools In Kochi: A big change is being seen in many CBSE schools in Kochi. Actually, in these schools, children are being given emojis instead of marks or grades. The results of the children are being shown through these emojis. This change is in line with the New Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the guidelines set by CBSE. A "comprehensive report card" has been introduced for students from kindergarten to class 2 from this academic year, which focuses on the evaluation of children based on their activities rather than traditional written examinations.

'Children's skills development and communication skills will improve'

At the same time, a teacher from a CBSE school in Kochi said that you can imagine the enthusiasm of the children after this new method. Imagine that instead of your marks, there is an emoji. In which clapping, star or trophy is shown. I believe that this emoji will have a much greater impact. Also, children will get better motivation.

He said that the focus of these new systems is to improve communication skills apart from skills development. This is part of the new education policy, which was introduced about 4 years ago in 2020.

Why is this new education policy very special?

Apart from this, this new education policy system emphasizes skills like communication, active learning and overall health and wellness. Instead of relying on question papers, students are being assessed through project work, inquiry-based tasks, quizzes and group activities. This is leading to better development of children's emotional and social abilities as well as physical coordination.
