Project Work Guidelines
Project Work Guidelines
➢ The Project can be inter-disciplinary in theme. The ideas/issues highlighted in the chapters/ poems/
drama given the prescribed books can also be developed in the form of a project. Students can also
take up any relevant and age-appropriate theme.
For Example: -
A. INTERVIEW-BASED RESEARCH:
Example:
➢ Students can choose a topic on which to do their research/ interview, e.g. a student can choose the
topic: “Evolving food tastes in my neighbourhood” or “Corona pandemic and the fallout on families.”
Read the available literature.
➢ The student then conducts interviews with a few neighbours on the topic. For an interview, with the
help of the teacher, student will frame questions based on the preliminary research/background.
➢ The student will then write an essay/ write up / report etc. up to 1000 words on his/her research and
submit it. He / She will then take a viva on the research project. The project can be done in
individually or in pairs/ groups
Before they decide a format, the following elements can be taken into consideration:
● Theme/topic of the audio / video. Would the child like to pick a current issue or something artistic like
theatre?
● What are the elements that need to be part of the script?
● Will the video/audio have an interview with one or more guests?
● Would they prefer to improvise while chatting with guests, or work from a script?
● What would be the duration?
● How would they present the script/report to the teacher, e.g. Can it be in the form of a narrative?
This will be a project which will be done as a team. It will involve planning, preparation and presentation. In
short, various language skills will be utilised. The project will end with a presentation and subsequently a viva.
