 Around 1000 children from pre-school
2. Situation to the tenth standard are enrolled with
St James Convent School.
Analysis The biggest challenge that the
teachers face during their interactions
with the students is the variance in
learning capabilities within a class.
The medium of instruction in school is
Hindi, and the school promotes
creativity amongst the students
throughout their learning curve.
Although the students were well versed
with their subjects, at times they were
found wanting when it came to
knowledge related to world events,
current affairs, environment related
issues
IDENTIFIED ISSUES
The students were shy and found it
difficult to open up, they were reluctant to
share their views and we had to be very
supportive in order to make them feel
comfortable
They lacked perspective as regards
career options due to a narrow outlook
and lack of options around their
surroundings
Students lacked sensitivity towards
environmental and cleanliness issues and
their lack of knowledge about necessary
social issues is majorly because of lack of
exposure to sources of information
particularly the digital platforms
The importance of education and
knowledge needs to be stressed upon

 Personality Development Sessions -We taught
them how to introduce themselves in under a minute.
In order to encourage participation for the same, we

Deliverable
Consumer Awareness Sessions We also made
s them aware about things that they are likely to
encounter in their daily lives For ex: Identifying
where the MRP of a product is written, the
expiry date of a product, insistence for a bill,
Environment Education Sessions- By the means
of videos, we educated them about the same and
taught them ways by which they can make a
difference. We taught them what habits they should
adopt and which are the ones they need to avoid for
their health and well-being
General Knowledge sessions- Our attempts were
focused around briefing students with the relevant
current affairs topics. We made the students aware of
the latest happenings that concern them by way of
presentations on: Swachh Bharat Abhiyan Jan 6
 Deliverables Measurement
Qualitative Measurement
-Student interactions were
gauged in the form of qualitative
responses and their comments
were analyzed for further
improvement.
Quantitative Measurement
On every subsequent visit, we will
follow up with students to gauge
how much they learnt from the
previous visit
We will also conduct short length
tests regarding the concepts
taught to see how much the
students understood
From the students, we will solicit
reports as to how their experience
was to understand their
perspective of our work

 We did a descriptive analysis of the test conducted to gauge
the understanding of concepts by the students. The central
tendency of the performance of the students in the tests
5. was observed:
Assessment Analysis of tests conducted:

1. On an average the Standard 5th

Students scored 58% marks whereas
the Standard 4th students scored 52%
marks in the post teaching session
tests conducted to analyze the impact
and retention of content

2. However, the median marks

analyzed for the tests were 60% for
both the standards, thus the marks
obtained data is left skewed (Median >
Mean) which means the mass 16%
22% 28% 28% 6% Percentage
Distribution of Students by Marks
scored 0 marks 1 marks 2 marks 3
marks 4 marks 5 marks of the
distribution is majorly concentrated on
the right hand side of the figure. Which
means students scoring below the
average are lesser 9
 Analysis of Feedback forms (Survey Forms)
Assessment We measured the responses of students on Likert Scale
from 0 to 5 for mentioned questions. Then we divided the
scale on three scenarios of:
Disagree: 1-2 Neutral: 3
Agree: 4-5

Our findings are tabulated below

 Reaching the venue was a little bit of a challenge as roads leading up
to the school
were in a bad shape. Also, since there were several intertwining streets,
6- very often we found it difficult to find our way through
At the school, the medium of instruction was Hindi. At times, it was a
Challenges little difficult for us to convey our thoughts in Hindi
The class had variations in terms of learning abilities. If some
students could not pick
up a concept, we put in additional efforts to explain it. However, the other
students
who understood it, felt a little restless to make a move on. Thus,
satisfying every
students needs as per their learning ability was a challenge
On Saturdays, when our visits were scheduled, the school had a half
day.
Consequentially, time management proved to be a little bit of challenge as
we had to
cover several concepts in a shorter span
The students did not have too much background knowledge about
certain concepts
that we taught. Thus, it took us more effort to explain those concepts
