Sounds quite relieving and fun, doesn’t it?
Instead, what if students showcased their learnings through performances?
Could this approach actually benefit students more than traditional written exams?
Let’s explore this with the context of English.
English goes beyond being a mere ‘subject’ as it serves as a medium of instruction and communication. A good command of English not only improves the language skills and comprehension across subjects, but most importantly, builds confidence in communication – a vital asset when stepping into the competitive world outside school.
While written exams focus on improving writing skills, performance-based assessments offer a broader range of benefits. With activities like roleplays, presentations, and debates, it’s like unlocking a whole toolbox of communication skills, where one gets to practice reading, writing, speaking, listening, and even grammar in a more dynamic and engaging way.
A platform to showcase skills and learnings can provide an array of benefits, including:
• Practical application of concepts
• Hands-on experiences
• Creativity and innovation
• Enhanced communication skills
• Interest in the subject and motivation to learn more
All these benefits improve students’ critical thinking skills and extend beyond the mere memorization typically associated with written tests.
Now, imagine if a student could avail the benefits of such a platform to not only learn concepts but also apply them in real-world scenarios.
But is such a learning platform even available?
Yes! Allow us to introduce ‘EUPHORIA’, the annual showcase event of NELTAS English Beyond Academics course.
Euphoria is not just any annual day event, it’s the Grand Finale or culmination of students’ year-long English learning journey.
It’s a platform where students extend their boundaries of theoretical learning to perform the skills they have learnt during the span of the English Beyond Academics course. It’s also a platform where creativity takes center stage with role plays, presentations and many more exciting performances.
Sounds exciting?
