The State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT), Telangana, has made Learning Outcomes posters available for download on their official website, scert.telangana.gov.in.
These posters are valuable resources for teachers and students, visually representing the learning outcomes for each subject and grade level.
What Are Learning Outcomes? Learning Outcomes describe what students should know, understand, and be able to do by the end of a lesson, unit, or course. They clearly understand what is expected from students regarding their learning achievements.
Parents can keep a tab on their children’s learning outcomes: The booklet details how students with hearing, cognitive, visual, and other impairments may take more time or require attention to learn.
The SCERT (Telangana State Education Research and Training) released a document titled ‘Learning Outcomes’, which will help the parents of students studying between Class I to VIII in Schools judge if the school has provided the child with correct/enough knowledge for a student of his age.
The Learning Outcomes online booklet released on the department’s website is a resource for both teachers and parents. It not only enlists the learning outcome but even gives a detailed explanation of the pedagogy processes to be followed by teachers to arrive at these learning outcomes.
The Learning Outcomes document, both in English and Telugu gives a class-wise and subject-wise classification of the pedagogical processes and learning outcomes.
For example, in the English booklet, in the Class I English syllabus, it is suggested in the pedagogical process to be followed by teachers that the learner (students) should be provided opportunities in pairs, groups, or individually and encouraged to name common objects such as man, dog, etc. when pictures are shown.
In the learning outcomes, which can come in handy for parents, it is said that the student should be able to associate words with pictures and name familiar objects seen in the picture.
The four main subjects covered are Telugu, English, Mathematics, EVS, and Social Sciences, whereas from Class I to VIII, entire pages are dedicated to different pedagogical approaches and their desired learning outcomes.
The Learning Outcomes booklets have special sections dedicated to children with special needs, and it is mentioned that such children may need more time and individualized attention.
Since the introduction of the Right to Education Act, no school can fail a student up to Class VIII. While this policy is under review owing to several debates, many put the onus on teachers.
The government has been implementing various initiatives since the introduction of the RTE Act to gauge students’ learning outcomes, for which even the baseline tests are conducted to gauge if students have the basic knowledge of the subjects required for their age.

However, this Learning Outcomes document, prepared by the NCERT and later adapted for the state by an expert committee, will come in handy for parents.
They can now judge if the students are up to the learning level for their age, and even teachers can do the same. If not, then interventions are expected to be planned to help the child cope up. Parents, too, welcomed the idea.
The parent of a Class VI student of an SSC board school in Camp said, “I will go on this website and check what is listed there. I take tuition for my son and am constantly checking his academic scores, which gives me an indication of how he is doing. But if there is any such document, it would be worthwhile to visit and check for ourselves if our children are matching up”.
Such initiatives would work only if all parents or teachers showed interest. “Most parents are not even bothered about their children’s academic performance.
They just put their children in schools and forget them. As far as teachers go, they are already so overburdened, and so much is available on pedagogy. Only time will tell if this would be of any use”.
