Conduct of Periodic Tests:

Periodic Test is a Pen and Paper assessment which is to be conducted by the
respective subject teacher. The format of periodic test must have questions items with
a balance mix, such as, very short answer (VSA), short answer (SA) and long answer
(LA) to effectively assess the knowledge, understanding, application, skills, analysis,
evaluation and synthesis. Depending on the nature of subject, the subject teacher
will have the liberty of incorporating any other types of questions too. The modalities
of the PT are as follows:

a) Mode: The periodic testis to be taken in the form of pen-paper test.

b) Schedule: In the entire Academic Year, three Periodic Tests in Mathematics
subject may be conducted as follows:

Test Pre-Mid-term (PT-I) Mid-Term (PT-II) Post Mid-Term (PT-III)
Tentative Month July-August November December-January

c) Average of Marks: Once schools complete the conduct of all the three
periodic tests, they will convert the Weightage of each of the three tests
into ten marks each for identifying best two tests. The best two will be
taken into consideration and the average of the two shall be taken as
the final marks for PT.

d) The school will ensure simple documentation to keep a record of performance.

34

e) Sharing of Feedback/Performance
must be shared with the students and their parents to give them an overview
of the level of learning that has taken place during different periods. Feedback
will help parents formulate interventions (conducive ambience, support
materials, motivation and morale-boosting) to further enhance learning. A
teacher, while sharing the feedback with student or parent, should be
empathetic, non- judgmental and motivating

a) Assessment of Activity Work: Throughout the year activities shall be
performed by the students from the activities given in the NCERT
Laboratory Manual for the respective class (XI or XII). A record of the
same may be kept by the student. A year end test on the activity may be
conducted.

PROJECT WORK IN BUSINESS STUDIES

Introduction

The course in Business Studies is introduced at Senior School level to provide students
with a sound understanding of the principles and practices bearing in business (trade
and industry) as well as their relationship with the society. Business is a dynamic
process that brings together technology, natural resources and human initiative in a
constantly changing global environment. With the purpose to help them understand
the framework within which a business operates, and its interaction with the social,
economic, technological and legal environment, the CBSE has introduced Project
Work in the Business Studies Syllabus for Classes XII. The projects have been designed
to allow students to appreciate that business is an integral component of society and
help them develop an understanding of the social and ethical issues concerning
them.
The project work also aims to empower the teacher to relate all the concepts with

appear more clear and contextual. This will enable the student to enjoy studies and

By means of Project Work the students are exposed to life beyond textbooks giving
them opportunities to refer materials, gather information, analyze it further to obtain
relevant information and decide what matter to keep.

Objectives

After doing the Project Work in Business Studies, the students will be able to do the
following:
Develop a practical approach by using modern technologies in the field of
business and management;
get an opportunity for exposure to the operational environment in the field of
business management and related services;
inculcate important skills of teamwork, problem solving, time management,
information collection, processing, analysing and synthesizing relevant
information to derive meaningful conclusions
get involved in the process of research work; demonstrate his or her
capabilities while working independently and
Make studies an enjoyable experience to cherish.

GUIDELINES FOR TEACHERS

Students are supposed to select one unit out of four and are required to make only
ONE project from the selected unit. (Consist of one project of 20marks)

1. Help students to select any ONE Topic for the entire year.
2. The topic should be assigned after discussion with the student in the class and

57

should then be discussed at every stage of the submission of the project.
The teacher should play the role of a facilitator and should closely supervise
the process of project completion. The teachers must ensure that the project
workassignedtothestudentswhetherindividuallyoringrouparediscussedatdiffer
ent stages right from assignment to drafts review and finalization. Students
should be facilitated in terms of providing relevant materials or suggesting
websites, or obtaining required permissions from business houses, malls etc
for their project. The periods assigned to the Project Work should be suitably
spaced throughout the academic session. The teachers MUST ensure that the
student actually go through the rigors and enjoy the process of doing the
project rather than depending on any readymade material available outside.

3. The students must make a presentation of the project before the class.
4. -esteem and creativity is
enhanced and both the teacher and the student enjoy this process.
5. The teachers should feel pride in the fact that they have explored the different
dimensions of the project in an innovative way and their students have put in
genuine work

III. Project Three: Stock Exchange
The purpose of this project is to teach school students the values of investing and
utilizing the stock market. This project also teaches important lessons about the
economy, mathematics and financial responsibility.

The basis of this project is to learn about the stock market while investing a specified
amount of fake money in certain stocks. Students then study the results and buy and
sell as they see fit.
This project will also guide the students and provide them with the supplies
necessary to successfully monitor stock market trends and will teach students
how to calculate profit and loss on stock.

present it diagrammatically on the graph paper.

61

They will understand the weekly holidays and the holidays under the
Negotiable Instruments Act.
They will also come across with terms like closing prices, opening prices, etc.
During this period of recording students are supposed to distinctively record
the daily and starting and closing prices of the week other days under the
negotiable instrument act so that they acquire knowledge about closing and
opening prices.
