Two assessment tools, Enclear and Tele-practice app were started in the field of education in the state of Chhattisgarh. In one of these tools, Enclear, children are given a QR code card with their ID, whose expenditure on 40 students for a year comes to only 20 rupees. Children have to keep this card safe with them. The biggest advantage of the Enclear app is that when teachers ask multiple-choice questions in the classroom, children have to hold and display the card in a particular direction on the basis of the correct answer. The cards of all the children are scanned remotely by the teacher from one place in the class with his mobile camera. Students are automatically assessed as soon as they are scanned and question wise, student wise reports can be viewed by the teacher and at various levels. In this, the teachers get rid of the hassle of checking the answer of each question and giving marks.
Similarly, another app for assessment of students that NIC has developed is Tele-practice. Through this, oral quizzes can be organized with the children. For this, through a program called Python, by adding students to the Telegram group, children are sent voice messages and pictures and written questions are sent on the screen. These questions are answered orally by the students. In this program, the answers of the students together are presented in the form of a film to the individual students, can be seen by their teachers and parents. Teachers can give marks based on answer of each question by watching student wise video. Through this program, the time of both teachers and students is saved due to the provision of answering questions from many students at the same time. Teachers also find it easier to check the status of each student and save time. The possibility of wrong assessment can also be avoided by having proof of such assessment. Each student has the opportunity to watch their own video with questions and answers based on their answers. All this makes the job of teachers very easy. Is.
