The Endline Assessment was conducted by Sikshana for the children in the classes IV to VII . The feedback from the assessment was positive with enhancement in learning levels for language reading and writing and arithmetic skills.
This ASER based assessment reflects the state of learning among children. The ASER based assessment tests the basic language (reading simple sentences in the regional language) and mathematics skills (simple division skills) among children studying in Class IV and VII.
In schools adopted by Sikshana, the children are doing remarkable in language and mathematics skills. Sikshana's intervention shows that the children are way ahead of ASER level skills. To prove that, Sikshana introduced a level higher than ASER in assessment the year 2011-12 and continued in the last academic year. In Government Higher Primary school,Appareddypalya, Domlur alone, 75.5% of the Class IV students are able to solve mathematics problems which are higher than ASER level and 87.7% of the students are able to read Kannada language which is a level higher than the ASER level.
Similarly, 65% of Class V students are able to solve mathematics problems which are higher than ASER level and 70.7% of the students are able to read Kannada language which is a level higher than the ASER level. In class VI, 69.7% are able to solve mathematics problems which are higher than ASER level and 94.5% of the students are able to read Kannada language which is a level higher than the ASER level.
92.1% of Class VII students are able to read complex Kannada language text, which is higher than the ASER level. Nearly 59% of the students are able to solve mathematics problems which are above ASER level. Sikshana's programs such as providing writing sheets, mentoring the children, teachers and schools has helped in the overall development in the schools.
Efforts were made by the field mentor to engage the children with holiday reading and writing assignments.
The children were away for the summer holidays for two months and the school reopened in first week of June , with the begining of the child tracking and data entry exercises.
