CISCE-affiliated schools undergo critical thinking-focused training
Jamshedpur educators adopt innovative question paper setting methods to align with the latest educational reforms for enhanced critical thinking and real-world application skills.
JAMSHEDPUR – In a significant educational shift, CISCE-affiliated schools in Jamshedpur are embracing a new examination approach aimed at fostering critical thinking and real-world application skills among students.
The initiative, centered around a recent training camp held at Gulmohur High School, Telco, marks a departure from traditional examination methods.
Educators Ajay and Savita, who led the training, introduced participants to the nuances of crafting concise, clear, and understandable questions.
This new methodology not only aims at assessing students’ grasp of the material but also at nurturing their analytical and evaluative abilities.
The emphasis on higher-order thinking skills is evident in the training’s focus on multiple-choice questions (MCQs) that challenge students to analyze and evaluate information.
Questions now include reasoning and equation-based problems, along with scenarios that require applying theoretical knowledge to practical situations.
Such changes in question paper setting reflect the broader educational reforms under the new policy, which prioritizes skill over rote learning.
By adapting to changes in curriculum and teaching styles, these sessions ensure educators are well-equipped to implement the new policy effectively.
This approach is expected to significantly enhance students’ academic and professional preparedness by cultivating crucial critical thinking skills.
