Thanks for the material ! 🙂
will the text on the topic be given in the question papers or only questions be given?
thankkkkkkkkkkkkkk uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu for the material . i wasnt able to get it anywhere but finally i found it here. i dont like the concept of otba . first they gave us psa then finals then novel then yyyyyy otba . is indian education all about burdening a child and stuffing things in our mind.whats the need of otba????? i dont understand it. it will not help us through any difficult times of our career. cbse should take reviewfrom the students and then experiment something!!!!!! god give them some brains.
CBSE says this will decrease the stress of memorising things on students as students will be able make answers using the material in their own way, so their will be no one fixed answer.
As long as your answer contains main details, the teacher has to give marks, and the teaher will have to be open about the students’s view, the can’t not give marks because their view was different
