Qualification of the Teacher : Teacher with a Bachelor’s Degree in any stream and a course or a diploma in Typing and Secretarial Practices from a recognized university or polytechnic is most eligible for taking the subject. Product Outcome : The timed exercise done by the student will be judged by the teacher. An error free report can be published in the school magazine. Record Work : A proper file should be maintained in which all the papers should be filed from the very first day. One can rectify the errors and see the difference in accuracy and speed between the first day and say after 2-3 months. Even the practice papers which may be full of errors should also be enclosed within the file. Time and again the timed exercise should be done from simple text to the running one and the same should be placed in the file. Evaluation : Each timed or non-timed exercise should be evaluated there and then. Grades may be allotted to the students based on their speed, accuracy and efficiency. Grades may be on a 9 point scale rating as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2, D1, D2, W (as per prescribed CBSE grading system). The file may be evaluated side by side with each exercise given. Evaluation has to be continuous, objective based, comprehensive and dynamic. Final evaluation should be based on both practical grades and file assessment. Cumulative records should be maintained meticulously for all the students. 101
