Ellen Ioanes at Vox:

Come Tuesday night, millions of Americans will be glued to their TV screens or refreshing their browser windows to see the latest election returns, all in anticipation of a final race call. (Though we might not know the next president until days later.)

Counting ballots can take a while, but news organizations don’t necessarily need to wait for every cast ballot to be counted before announcing a winner. They’re often able to declare who won without the full returns, thanks to the work of teams colloquially known as “decision desks” — groups of political scientists, statisticians, pollsters, and reporters who use mountains of data, statistical models, and on-the-ground reporting to understand which candidate is up where, and how likely a candidate is to win a given precinct, county, or state. Given the doubt that former President Donald Trump has sown over the past eight years, both about the election process and the media, it’s worth understanding in detail how the processes of projecting and calling election results work, and why consumers of news should trust those results. “Remember that we don’t elect anybody,” Anthony Salvanto, who as CBS News’s executive director of elections and surveys, oversees the network’s decision desk, told Vox. “The voters do that. Elections officials are reporting the vote, and what you’re getting from us and the networks is our analysis of what they’ve reported, as well as our first-hand reports from talking to voters.”

How exactly do news organizations figure out who’s winning?

To figure out who won an election, news organizations like Fox News, CNN, the Associated Press (AP), and others use a combination of data from election officials, statistical modeling, and polling and surveys of voters. Raw vote counts come in at the precinct, county, and state levels, and these help decision desks both ensure voting is in line with their expectations and to make decisions on tight contests. Those expectations are shaped by statistical models based on history and other voter information, like geographical location, gender, age, and more.

This year, there are two main systems that news media will rely on for their projections. The AP and Fox News use a system called AP VoteCast, which debuted in 2018 and has been used in every national election since. In a shift from past practice, VoteCast doesn’t rely on exit polling, and instead uses large-scale online surveys of registered voters who are chosen randomly from a probability-based sample, in an attempt to get the most accurate information from the most representative sample.

A different method is used by the National Election Pool (NEP), which provides data to ABC News, CBS News, CNN, and NBC News. The NEP relies on Edison Research to conduct three types of surveys: Election Day exit polls, in-person early voting exit polls, and polls of likely voters to capture data from those likely to vote by mail, Rob Farbman, executive vice president at Edison Research, told Vox. (AP and Fox News used to be part of this group, but left after the 2016 election.) (Decision Desk HQ, a private company that contracts with news organizations including the Economist and The Hill — and Vox.com in 2020 — doesn’t use voter surveys, and instead it relies on a proprietary statistical methodology to project winners.) Each outlet and agency creates their own criteria for interpreting these results.

News organizations have their own decision desk teams that determine when a state or a district can be called to determine that the leading candidate is 100% assured of winning.

In 2020, the Presidential election winner was called on Saturday after the election at just before 10:30AM CST.

How long do we have to wait for a winner to be officially declared this time? Who knows, but hopefully within a couple of days.

Differentiated Instruction Techniques: A Holistic Approach to Learning for Indian Classrooms

In today’s dynamic educational landscape, the one-size-fits-all approach to teaching is no longer effective, especially in diverse and inclusive classrooms. Each student has unique needs, abilities, and learning preferences, making it essential for educators to adopt strategies that cater to all learners. One such strategy is differentiated instruction techniques, a teaching approach designed to tailor educational experiences to individual students’ needs. In this article, we will delve into these techniques, exploring how Indian educators can apply them effectively in their classrooms.

What are Differentiated Instruction Techniques?

Differentiated instruction techniques refer to teaching methods that accommodate different learning styles, abilities, and interests within a classroom. Instead of delivering a uniform lesson, teachers adapt the content, process, and learning environment to ensure that each student can grasp concepts in a way that works best for them.

This strategy is particularly important in India, where classrooms often have students from diverse backgrounds, with varying levels of academic performance. The Indian education system is evolving, with a growing emphasis on inclusivity and catering to special needs students. Differentiated instruction aligns with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which promotes personalized learning and inclusivity in education.

The Importance of Differentiated Instruction in Indian Classrooms

Indian classrooms are typically large, with 30-50 students, each having distinct learning needs. Some students excel in visual learning, while others grasp concepts better through auditory or kinesthetic methods. Moreover, the rise of digital learning tools in India has introduced new ways of engaging students.

Incorporating differentiated instruction techniques allows teachers to address these varying needs. For example, a math problem can be explained through a hands-on activity for kinesthetic learners, while visual learners might benefit from diagrams. By using different teaching techniques, educators can engage all students and improve overall learning outcomes.

Key Differentiated Instruction Techniques for Indian Classrooms

Image-by-ferrantraite

1. Content Differentiation

Content differentiation involves modifying the material being taught to match the student’s learning needs. In Indian classrooms, this can mean using varied texts, videos, or digital resources based on a student’s proficiency level.

For example, in an English language class, advanced learners can be given complex literature, while beginners can start with simple stories. Similarly, for subjects like science, teachers can use local languages or simpler terms for students who struggle with English, ensuring comprehension for all.

2. Process Differentiation

This technique involves adjusting how students engage with the content. Teachers can create flexible groupings, allowing students to collaborate and learn from each other. Process differentiation encourages peer learning, which is highly beneficial in Indian classrooms, as students often come from diverse cultural and educational backgrounds.

Group activities, think-pair-share exercises, or interactive sessions where students teach each other are practical examples of process differentiation. Moreover, incorporating digital tools like online quizzes, interactive simulations, or educational apps, which are increasingly popular in Indian schools, can cater to tech-savvy students while keeping the learning environment engaging.

3. Product Differentiation

Product differentiation involves altering how students demonstrate their understanding of a subject. Instead of relying solely on traditional exams, teachers can allow students to showcase their knowledge through projects, presentations, or creative assignments.

In India, where there is often a heavy emphasis on exams, product differentiation offers a refreshing change. Students who may struggle with test anxiety or written exams can demonstrate their knowledge through art, storytelling, or digital presentations. This not only boosts their confidence but also ensures a more comprehensive understanding of the material.

4. Learning Environment Differentiation

The physical setup of a classroom can influence how students learn. A flexible classroom environment can support diverse learners by offering different areas for group work, quiet study, or hands-on activities.

In Indian schools, where space might be limited, teachers can still create designated zones for various activities, such as reading corners, discussion zones, or activity tables. Adjusting the environment according to the student’s needs fosters a more inclusive learning atmosphere.

Practical Application of Differentiated Instruction Techniques in Indian Schools

Image-by-stokpic

Implementing differentiated instruction techniques requires planning and creativity. However, Indian educators can use the following strategies to integrate these techniques effectively:

Flexible Grouping: Teachers can group students based on their learning levels, interests, or skills. For example, during a history lesson, students interested in arts can work on drawing historical figures, while others might engage in role-play activities or writing essays.

Tiered Assignments: Assignments can be designed at different difficulty levels, ensuring that both advanced and struggling learners remain engaged. For instance, in a math class, some students can work on challenging problems while others focus on basic concepts.

Use of Local Contexts: In Indian classrooms, leveraging the local context is vital. Teachers can design lessons that include examples, case studies, or real-life applications relevant to the students’ cultural and social backgrounds. For example, a lesson on environmental science can include local ecosystems or issues like pollution in Indian cities.

Technology Integration: With the rise of digital education in India, teachers can use various online platforms and apps to provide personalized learning experiences. Interactive tools such as Khan Academy or Byju’s can help students at different levels grasp complex concepts at their own pace.

Challenges and Solutions for Implementing Differentiated Instruction Techniques

While differentiated instruction techniques offer numerous benefits, there are challenges, particularly in India’s crowded classrooms. Time management is a major concern, as planning different activities for a large group of students can be overwhelming. Additionally, resource constraints, such as limited access to technology, may hinder implementation.

However, these challenges can be overcome by:

Image-by-VikramRaghuvanshi

Teacher Training: Ongoing professional development for teachers is essential. Workshops and online courses can help educators learn how to implement differentiated instruction effectively.

Collaboration with Parents: Involving parents in the learning process ensures students receive support both at school and at home. Teachers can guide parents on how to assist their children with personalized learning techniques.

Resource Sharing: Schools can create shared resources like lesson plans or activity kits that teachers can use across different subjects and grade levels, reducing the preparation time required for differentiation.

Conclusion

Differentiated instruction techniques are not just a trend but a necessity in modern education, especially in India’s diverse classrooms. By adapting lessons to meet individual student needs, educators can create an inclusive environment that fosters academic growth for all learners. Whether through content, process, product, or environmental differentiation, these techniques ensure that no student is left behind, paving the way for a brighter, more personalized future in Indian education.

CBSE Implements Competency-Based Learning Journey in Schools

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has implemented a shift in its teaching methods, introducing Competency-Based Education (CBE) in schools across India. This change moves away from traditional content-heavy learning, where memorisation was often emphasised. The curriculum has shifted to a model that focuses on the practical application of knowledge and skills.

Launched during the 2022-23 academic year, this approach aligns with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. It encourages a well-rounded education that better prepares students for both future academic studies and professional environments. Schools such as St. Xavier’s High School at the forefront of this change, supporting students in developing real-world skills, critical thinking abilities, and a deeper understanding of their subjects.

What is Competency-Based Education?

Competency-based education, as implemented by new-age schools like St. Xavier’s High schools in sector 81 gurgaon, focuses on equipping students with practical, specific skills. This approach enables students to demonstrate their knowledge through application-based activities rather than traditional simple learning. For example, instead of solely memorising facts for exams, students in a CBE model engage in tasks that apply their knowledge to solve problems or complete projects that simulate real-world scenarios. This method develops critical thinking, problem-solving, and adaptability, giving students skills that go beyond academic knowledge and prepare them for future challenges in both educational and professional settings.

Why Schools in Gurugram, Including St. Xavier’s, are Adopting CBE

The shift to Competency-Based Education is a response to the need for more meaningful and practical learning. Traditional education models often required students to rely heavily on memorisation, which led to quick forgetting of information once exams were over. CBE focuses on thorough comprehension and skills finesse, which not only helps students retain what they learn but also understand its applications in real life. At St. Xavier’s High School Sector 81, this approach aims to provide students with the skills they will need to overcome future academic and professional spaces effectively.

Key Elements of Competency-Based Learning

In implementing Competency-Based Education, schools like St. Xavier’s Sector 81 follow several foundational principles that distinguish this approach from traditional education:

1. Personalised Learning

Lessons are tailored to address the specific needs of each student. Teachers adapt the material and pace to suit individual learning styles, ensuring that every student has the opportunity to succeed.

2. Competency Mastery

Students only advance to the next level when they have fully mastered the current skill or concept. This method prevents gaps in understanding and builds a solid foundation of knowledge.

3.Flexible Learning Environments

In CBE, learning is not limited to the classroom or a rigid schedule. Students are encouraged to engage with the material through various resources, both online and offline, at a pace that suits them best.

4. Student Ownership of Learning

CBE students participate actively in their education. It builds a sense of responsibility and accountability. Students are prompted to ask questions, explore their curiosities, and develop independence in their learning process.

New Assessment Approaches in Competency-Based Education

Assessments are important in Competency-Based Education but differ from traditional exams. Instead of testing memorised information, assessments in CBE measure students' abilities to apply their knowledge in practical situations. Teachers at St. Xavier’s Sector 81, for instance, assesses students through tasks that involve analysis of all of which showcase how well students have understood the material. This approach not only evaluates comprehension but also helps students build skills that will be essential in their future studies and careers.

Advantages of Competency-Based Learning

Competency-Based Learning offers numerous benefits for students, particularly in preparing them for higher education and the workplace. Some key advantages include:

In-Depth Understanding

CBE enables students to gain a comprehensive understanding of their subjects. Rather than focusing on what to learn, students also explore why and how things work.

Practical Skills Development

Since the emphasis is on real-world applications, students learn practical skills that make their studies more relevant. For example, a science student might engage in experiments that connect theoretical knowledge to real-life applications.

Readiness for Future Challenges

CBE prepares students with problem-solving and analytical skills that are invaluable in higher education and professional settings. As students progress through their education, these skills will help them adapt to new situations and challenges effectively.

Individual Support and Flexibility

In a competency-based model, students are not rushed to meet a standard curriculum pace. They are given the time to thoroughly understand each topic, creating a more supportive environment that addresses the learning needs of each individual.

Conclusion

The CBSE’s adoption of Competency-Based Education marks a pivotal shift in Indian education. For schools like St. Xavier’s High School in Sector 81 Gurugram, this new educational model presents a valuable opportunity to provide students with a personalized and impactful learning experience. With the collaborative efforts of educators, parents, and the community, Competency-Based Education aims to produce well-rounded individuals.
