CBSE Term 1 exam: Board issues important guidelines; check details here

-

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released a notification regarding the CBSE Term 1 exam to be held in November-December this year. The Term 1 exam for CBSE Class 10 students will begin on 17 November and will be conducted from 16 November for Class 12 students this year.

CBSE has mentioned that the exam will be conducted in centres where both the students and the school would not face any difficulty. Candidates can check the results of the Term 1 exam at the official website of the board,  https://www.cbse.gov.in/.

Here's the direct link to the notification .

The board said that the examination centres will be fixed by keeping in mind the COVID-19 situation, with the centres being allotted in such a manner that no teachers or students encounter any problems.

The Term 1 internal assessments, projects and practical exams can be held by 23 December, according to the CBSE. The deadline for schools to upload marks for the CBSE Term 1 practical, projects and internal assessment is 23 December.

If a school fails to upload the marks of a student by 23 December, the result of that candidate could be declared without taking into consideration the Term 1 internal assessment, practical exams or project marks, and the result will be declared based on Term 2 exams only.

The board can also take action against a particular school for not submitting the marks and a fine of Rs 50,000 could be imposed for late submission.

This time, exam centres will be provided with customised OMR sheets which will have all the details of the student appearing in the exam. Schools can download the OMR for class 10 and class 12 from the CBSE portal.

The board will also send observers to each exam centre — two observers will be sent to centres with more than 500 students.

Roll number and guidelines for the students will be uploaded by the CBSE on 9 November. The CBSE Term 1 exam for Class 10 and 12 students will feature multiple choice questions (MCQ). A time of 20 minutes before the start of the exam will be given to students in order to read the paper.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-

After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu

Aditya L1 Mission: Spacecraft is nearing its final phase, says ISRO chief

-
Aditya L1 spacecraft is nearing its final phase, and manoeuvres to enter the L1 point are expected to be completed by January 7, 2024, according to ISRO Chairman S Somanath. “Aditya is on the way. I think it has reached almost its final phase,” the ISRO chief told PTI on the sidelines of an event organised at VSSC to commemorate the 60th year of the First Sounding Rocket Launch. Aditya L1, India’s first space-based mission to study the Sun, was successfully launched on September 2 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota. The spacecraft, after travelling about 1.5 million km from Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, considered closest to the Sun. He said that the last preparations for the spacecraft’s entry into the L1 point are currently underway incrementally.”Possibly by January 7th, the final manoeuvres will be done for entering into the L1 point,” Somanath added. Among other tasks, it will capture and tr
