News India Live, Digital Desk: If you or any child in your family is studying in 8th, 9th or 11th class under Jharkhand Board (JAC), then this news is very important for you. For the last few years, we have been seeing that the examinations of these classes are only OMR Sheet (Optical Mark Recognition) But there were. Just read the question, darken the correct circle and the exam is over!
But now this system is about to change. The Education Department has felt that due to this “filling of circles” (tick marks), children are forgetting how to read and write. Therefore, a very big decision is being taken To remove OMR and go back to taking the exam on the answer sheet.
Let us understand in simple language when it will be implemented and what effect it will have on you.
Why is this change being made?
It is often seen that children fail in class 8th, 9th and 11th due to solving only objective questions. Writing Skill She has become very weak. When these children go to class 10th or 12th, where long answers have to be written, their hands start trembling or they are not able to write the answers properly.
To overcome this problem JCERT Has prepared the proposal. The objective is clearly to strengthen the foundation of children and teach them to write with understanding instead of memorizing or reciting rhymes.
When will OMR sheets be removed? (Exam Pattern Roadmap)
This change will not happen overnight, it will be implemented gradually (Phase wise) so that children are not suddenly burdened. As per JCERT draft:
- Class 9th and 11th:
Target for these classes year 2027 Is placed. That is, in the session which will be 2026-27, the examination on OMR sheet may be completely stopped and the entire examination will be on question-cum-answer sheet (written). In the years before this, a mix of objective and subjective may be seen. - Class 8th:
This change for these little children year 2028 It is planned to be implemented from (session 2027-28). Till then they will gradually be inculcated into the habit of writing.
What will be the benefit out of this?
Till now, what used to happen was that in 8th, 9th and 11th, children used to pass by choosing only one of the four options. Many times, he used to chant ‘Jai Mata Di’. But in future, when they appeared for competitive exams or board exams, they would fail due to the concepts not being clear.
When the written test comes back:
- of children handwriting Will improve.
- Deep knowledge of the subject will increase.
- Results will be better in matriculation and intermediate.
