Kerala Seeks Immediate Action Regarding Complaints on CBSE Plus Two Evaluations

Concerns have been raised regarding the evaluation of Class XII examination papers conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) under the new Online Scanning and Monitoring (OSM) system. This innovative system employs scanning technology to digitize answer sheets, allowing for automated assessment rather than traditional hand-based corrections conducted by teachers.

The OSM system was introduced to enhance the efficiency and consistency of examination evaluations, aiming to reduce human error and improve turnaround times for results. However, numerous students and educators are voicing apprehensions about the accuracy and fairness of this method, citing instances of discrepancies and potential oversights in the evaluation process.

In response to these complaints, CBSE officials have stated that the system includes multiple layers of verification and quality checks to ensure the reliability of results. The board encourages feedback from stakeholders to identify and address any issues that may arise during the evaluation process.

As the education sector continues to adapt to digital examination methods, the impact of the OSM system on student performance and stress levels remains a topic of discussion. Stakeholders call for transparency and accountability in the evaluation criteria to safeguard student interests and maintain the integrity of the examination.
