National Institute of Open Schooling ICT based On-Demand Examination System (ODES)
1. Introduction
The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS), is the largest Open School in the world in terms of Enrolment, Programmes and Courses offered and the geographical areas under its operation. The cumulative current enrolment of NIOS is about 1.85 Million. NIOS offers Secondary and Sr. Secondary courses through open and distance learning mode. It also offers various vocational and life enrichment courses and has ventured into Open Basic Education at three levels viz A-level, B-level and Clevel equivalent to class III class V & class VIII respectively of the formal education. Besides acting as examining and certifying authority, NIOS is engaged in delivery of education and capacity building programme. Over the years, NIOS has been unfolding through its innovations in many ways to become a learner-centred system of school education. Under the programme and activities of the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS), ICT is being used as a major strategy towards reaching the unreached and management of NIOS. The ICT is being used in the Evaluation System of NIOS in a great way. The entire evaluation system is computerized, right from registration of the candidate to the issue of the final certificates. As a major strategic use of ICT in the Examination reforms, NIOS has conceptualized and operationalised the On-Demand Examination System (ODES) at Secondary and Sr.Secondary Level.

2. On-Demand Examination System (ODES)

2.1 The Concept & philosophical basis
Flexible Examination System has been one of the key features of NIOS. It is the only National Board of Secondary, Sr.Secondary and Vocational Education under Open Learning. NIOS conducts its Public Examinations twice a year in April and October. A student can avail as many as nine chances to appear in the examinations with one or more subjects at a time with the facility of credit
17

fo|k/kue~ loZ/kua iz/kkue~

accumulation over a period of five years. In order to pass and get Secondary /Sr.Secondary certificate, a student has to pass in minimum 5 subjects including at least one but not more than two languages. There is a provision of re-admission after five years of admission validity with transfer of credit facility. It has been felt for quite some time that the present system of conducting examination only once or twice a year and on fixed dates does not fully meet the criteria of openness and flexibility in learners evaluation. Hence in trying to explore how far is it possible to move in an open direction in case of summative assessment and taking note of the fact that the frequency of examinations is a major challenge, NIOS came up with this innovative concept of On-Demand Examination System (ODES) as a major strategic use of ICT, where assessment takes place when the individual learners considers themselves to be ready to take it. Not only ODES is time independent but it also allows the learners to improve their performance till they are satisfied with the mastery level set by them individually. Thus, ODES adds another dimension of openness in the Open Schooling System where examination is self paced and degree of performance is learner controlled. the NIOS has introduced ICT based On-Demand Examination (ODE) at Secondary (Class 10 th) and Senior Secondary (Class 12th) stages of Education. This information brochure elaborates the academic and technical aspects of the On-Demand Examination System and its implementation strategies in NIOS. The implementation of ODE is conducive to ensuring quality in assessment of the diverse competencies of the learner and different areas of content in due proportion. Under the System of ODES, a unique question paper having defined number of items is generated randomly by the computer on the day of the examination out of the already developed question bank on the basis of question paper design and the blue print of the subject. Not that ODES is time independent but it also allows the learners to improve their performance till they are satisfied with the achievement level set by them individually and so we call it a learner centric examination system. The novel concept of ODE is a great step in the direction of flexibility to the open and distance learning. This has made the total system of examination independent of the time frame and has helped the NIOS learners to take up the examinations as per their wish
18

fo|k/kue~ loZ/kua iz/kkue~

and preparation. Undoubtedly such a system provides a nonthreatening evaluation system as compared to the existing fixed scheduled Public Examination System, allowing an open learner to pace learning and has contributed in reducing pre examination stress. Further, this is in consonance with the concept of flexibility, which is the key to open and distance learning system.

2.2 Significant Characteristics of ODES

ODE allows the student to take examination when he/she is ready. Readiness depends on the Student and not on the institution. ODE permits the student to choose the date of his/her examination. ODE reduces the threat of failure in examination. ODE removes frustration, loss of self esteem, peer group ridicule, and depression that are generally characterized by the Term-End Examination. Under ODE, the degree and level of performance is decided by the student who can reappear in the examination as many times as s/he wants, till satisfied. ODE respects the individuality and sovereignty of the student.

3. Eligibility
In order to avail ODES the learner has to be a registered student of NIOS having an Enrolment No. and an identity card. A Secondary/Sr. Secondary candidate of NIOS can apply for On Demand Examination within the validity period of his/her admission only after the first public examination for which he/she is eligible. The Admission in NIOS is 100% Online and is open round the year (24X7). In order to cater to the different needs of different learners, four streams of Online admissions are available in NIOS. The admissions in different Streams of Online are mutually exclusive and the learners can only opt for one of them. These streams are as follows:

Online Admission for all learners (Stream-1): This stream for Online Admission was opened for all the learners as per
19

fo|k/kue~ loZ/kua iz/kkue~

the laid down criteria for Secondary and Senior Secondary levels. This stream of online admission is open round the year with cut off dates for the public examination given as under:

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs) ON ODES

What is ODES? ODES stands for ON-DEMAND EXAMINATION SYSTEM under which a learner of NIOS can appear in the examination of a subject of his/her choice in a day he/she considers to be ready to take it depending upon the availability of seats. Such a system also allows a learner to improve performance by appearing the examination of a subject as many times as he/ she wants till satisfied.

How is ODES different from any Board Examination? ODES do not have fixed schedule and time like the Board Examination. When ever a learner feels ready to appear in the examination in a subject (s)he can register and appear depending upon the availability of seats for the examination in a subject of his/her choice. ODES allows improvement of performance as many times a learner wants, till satisfied. On having fulfilling the criterion for certification, request for the Secondary Certificate or Sr.Secondary Certificate as the case may be has to be made by a learner. This is because of the freedom to improve performance. Will the Certificate obtained through ODES have the same recognition as the Secondary Level Certificate from other Boards? The Secondary Level or Sr.Secondary Level Certificate issued by NIOS obtained through ODES or through its Public Examinations of NIOS is equivalent to the Certificate issued by other Boards. NIOS had been vested with the authority to conduct Public Examinations at Secondary and Sr.Secondary level vide GOIs resolution dated 14 September 1990. The question of not granting recognition to NIOS certificates does not prevail.

Who are eligible to appear through ODES? In order to avail ODES the learner has to be a registered student of NIOS having an Enrolment No. and an identity card. A Secondary/Sr. Secondary candidate of NIOS can apply
27

fo|k/kue~ loZ/kua iz/kkue~

for On Demand Examination within the validity period of his/ her admission only after the first public examination for which he/she is eligible. The learner needs to provide an additional Photo Identity proof besides the NIOS Identity Card to appear in the On-Demand Examination. The information regarding additional Identity proof is taken at the time of online registration. The learners are required to bring the same Photo Identity proof at the time of On-Demand Examination.

How many times can a learner appear through ODES? When a learner takes admission in NIOS, his/her admission is valid for 5 years. During this period she can appear in subject examinations through ODES as many time she wants after paying requisite fees and registering herself every time. However, A Secondary/Sr. Secondary candidate of NIOS can apply for On Demand Examination within the validity period of his/her admission only after the first public examination for which he/she is eligible. A candidate who had appeared in a subject is not eligible to appear in the same subject again in the same month.
