EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 INTRODUCTION : Holistic Development is basically the development of everyone’s intellectual, emotional, social, physical, artistic, creative, religious values and feelings. It is pretty much just the development of the entire brain’s thoughts and feelings. The all round development or holistic development of an individual is only
possible through balanced development of scholastic or academic as well
as non –scholastic or non-academic aspects in the formal, in-formal and
non-formal educational setting in the society. Particularly, in the modern
era where individual have to pass through phases of undue anxiety and
over-stress, one finds that sometimes it leads to various types of depression
and even loss of life. In such cases individual’s involvement in the
co curricular activities become more significance because these activities
stop various types of anxieties and stress to come near the individual.
Today, the burdens of “stunts in education” i.e. marks, grades, divisions
etc. are also becoming fatal for growth and life of individuals across all
societies in the world. The co curricular or extracurricular activities help
the student to overcome the stress of stunts and allow the holistic
development of individual.
The modern education system recognizes that child come to educational
institution i.e. school or college for all round and harmonious development.
It aims at the development of the total personality of the child and
for that school or college provides opportunities for experiences. In fact
the quality of the school or college depends on and is evaluated upon
XXI
the education experiences which is provided in the school or college
study programmes, which may contribute to a long, happy and normal life
to the child. These comprises curricular, extracurricular as well as co
curricular educative experiences which provides inside as well as outside
the classroom.
In this context, modern education lays special emphasis on the need of
co curricular and extracurricular activities, because it has been
recognized as a source of enrichment and vitalization of the school or college
curriculum.
These activities form a vital link in the pattern of educational experiences
necessary for all boys and girls. Besides, these activities provides
opportunities of self – expression and participation which include various
important traits in learner. Psychologically these activities are considered
essential because they provide outlets for the flow of the surplus
energies of the students.
1.2 MEANING OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
Co Curricular Activities are non - academic activities that students participate
in. They are a great means of enhancing social interaction, healthy
recreation, leadership, self - discipline and self - confidence.
Co Curricular Activities are held outside of curriculum hours and the
activities undertaken depend on the nature of the activity.
Co Curricular refers to Activities, programs and learning experiences
that complement. in some way, what students are learning in school or
college i.e. experiences that are connected to or mirror the academic
curriculum.
XXII
1.3 DEFINITION OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
A Co-Curricular Activity is defined as a program or out-of-class activity,
supervised and / or financed by the school or college, which provides
curriculum-related learning and character building experiences. Co-curricular
Activities are voluntary, are not part of the regular school or college
curriculum, are not graded and do not earn credits. In other words, "Co-
curricular activities" means those activities which are conducted inside or
outside of the school or college premises by way of establishing different
subject clubs, associations, and organizations of pupils which are
sponsored by the Board of Education. "Co-Curricular Activities" also includes
the pupil clubs, sports associations, and cultural activities organizations which
conducts those activities.
Co Curricular Activities are typically, but not always, defined by their
separation from academic courses. For example, they are ungraded ;
they do not allow students to earn academic credit, they may take place
outside of school or college or after regular school or college hours and
they may be operated by outside organizations.
Co Curricular Activities seem to complement the academic curriculum
through live experience activities as well as instilling talents in order to
enhance self - development. Co curricular activities, planned and
implemented by students, are able to cultivate soft skills. In the process
of acquiring these skills, students have a lot to undergo. There are
hurdles and restrictions awaiting them in their bid to grow and develop
themselves into becoming individuals who are able to face the challenging
world. Students should possess qualities such as perseverance, dedication,
XXIII
courageous and commitment in order to master soft skills and be
successfully lift.
Co Curricular Activities can be the paths for students to develop their
interest and talents within their scope of studies. Organizing various
activities or projects, indirectly, expose students to the real world, work
culture and genuine challenges. These experiences will help build
positive personality and develop soft skills at the same time.
Co-Curricular Activities may often believe extra activities for college students
are a means to enhance social interaction, leadership, healthy recreation,
self-discipline and self-confidence. At higher levels of education, co curricular
participation may even translate into academic points (Ahmad). Although
several studies have been conducted to assess the impact of co-curricular
activities for all round development of students ( Kumar et al, 2004; Broh,
2002; Darling et al, 2005; Marsh and Kleitman, 2002; Thompson and Austin,
2003; Mahoney et al, 2003; Bauer and Liang, 2003 etc.), however, no
systematic effort has yet been made to look into the role of co-curricular
activities on various dimensions of achievement of students in a
comprehensive manner.
1.4 EXAMPLES OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
A few examples of common educational opportunities that may be
considered as Co Curricular which includes student newspapers, musical
performances, art shows, debate competitions, fine arts, indoor sports,
outdoor sports, camps, visits etc. But given the differing interpretations of
the term as well as its many potential applications, it's best to
determine precisely how co curricular being used in a particular
XXIV
educational context.
Co-Curricular Activities are mainly student activities. Student activities are
those school or college activities voluntarily engaged in, by students which
have the approval of and are sponsored by the faculty and which do not carry
credit towards promotion. Co-curricular activities are known in different
circles by different names or terms such as extracurricular activities, informal
(NSSE) estimated that 50% of college students are involved in some type of
co-curricular experience by the end of their senior year (National Post
Secondary Education Cooperative, 2006). Research supports the importance
of this involvement for undergraduate student learning and success
(Pascarella & Terenzini, 1991, 2005).
Studies about the impact of out-of-class experiences range from explorations
of the impact of involvement on critical thinking skills (Inman and Pascarella,
1998; Whitt, Edison, Pascarella, Nora, and Terenzini, 1999) to the
development of written and oral communication skills (Beeny, 2003; Pike,
2000). Information gathered from longitudinal studies (Astin, 1993), national
surveys ( Pascarella, Seifert, and Blaich, 2008; Pascarella, Whitt, Nora,
Edison, Hagedorn and Terenzini, 1995) and ongoing observation (Sandeen,
2003 ), find that many college experiences facilitate cognitive growth and
development in students. Despite this large body of research on the impact of
co-curricular involvement on student learning, gaps remain.
The study was designed to find out the impact of co curricular activities on
holistic development or overall personality development of junior college
students in Mumbai City.
1.6 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY : The objective of the study were to find out the impact of co curricular
activities on developing confidence, honesty, sociability, sympathetic
attitude, sense of responsibility, social obligation and adaptation among
junior college students in Mumbai City.
The following were the objectives of the study: 1. To study the different aspects of Co Curricular Activities.
XXVIII
2. To study the different aspects of Non Academic Development. 3. To study the impact of Co Curricular Activities on the Non Academic
Development of Students
( e.g. of Non Academic Development includes Adaption, Self Confidence,
Honesty, Sympathetic Attitude, Social Obligation, Sense of
Responsibility, Time Management and Leadership Qualities )
1.7 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY :
The Sample Size for data collection was 500 Respondents (i.e. Junior
College Students) out of which 416 Respondents data was valid and
reliable for study. The type of sampling chosen was " Random Sampling "
as the population was divided into different segments on the basis of
certain common characteristics.
For the study, the sample is selected randomly from different colleges of Mumbai, possessing different gender and different age group Students of Standard XI and XII ( i.e. Junior College Students ). Necessary care was taken to ensure that the sampling remained random. The method used for data collection for the study is simple questionnaire.
Data collected from the above exercise was fed to the SPSS software
and an analysis was carried on the output of the SPSS Statistics 20
analysis.
1.8 FINDINGS :

INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION :
Today’s world is a competitive world which is full of undue anxiety and
overstress. The formal, non formal as well as informal institutions in our
society are under a state of confusion. The informal institutions are
dominated by the will of parents and members of society. The parents
and other members in the informal institutions are influenced by marks
and divisions leading to achievement of social status in the society.
The Teachers in the formal institutions are also influenced by the false
indicators of student’s achievement i.e. the raw scores in the examinations.
The dependency on marks is also evident in the non-formal system of
education in forms of grades. Although, the present system of education
in India aspires to develop all potentials of individual in a balanced manner
yet it is unable to harness the more vital potential of individuals because
of the emphasis being given to the marks, percentage, grades etc. But,
recently it has been universally realized that the achievement in form of
marks, grades, percentage etc. are in reality ‘stunts of education’. They
hardly indicate one aspect of student’s development which is known as
scholastic development or academic development of students personality.
There is another vital aspect of development termed as non – scholastic
development or non - academic which is equally important for all round
development of student. Therefore, it has been visualized and conceived
that the all round development of an individual should include
development of scholastic or academic as well as non – scholastic or non
3
academic aspects. Such development includes academic, physical,
intellectual, social, moral, spiritual as well development is called “holistic
development” of individual.
The sole goal of education should be to ensure the holistic development of
students. Therefore curriculum must include all these aspects in educational
transaction. It can be ensured through proper implementation of Co
Curricular Activities in schools and colleges as well.
The function of education is to guide and control the formation of habit
and character on the part of the individual as well as to develop his
capacities and powers, so that he will become an efficient member of
society. Education is, then the great mean of controlling habit and
character in complex social group. It is the basic need of every society. The
society uses school and college as its agent of socialization. The
curriculum is devised to provide desirable attitudes and experiences
among youth.
Broadly speaking curriculum is the blue print or a plan of the school or
college that includes list of experiences for the learners. It is a way to
achieve the ends of education. Moreover, the curriculum lays the basis
for increasing the ability of as many of an individual as possible to
become active participating adult. Active participation means that student
learns some real skills and knowledge, which allows him or her to take
part in adding to the general social group and also gains the basis for
making judgment about undesirable social directions.
This segment of education is well thought- out as personality
development. Educational Institutions i.e. School or College and Society are
4
inter related and inter woven. School or College provides manpower to
society keeping in view of its needs and demands. Society needs
mentally and physically healthy persons having qualities like creativity,
hard work and honesty. Such qualities need training and practice.
Textbook alone cannot develop such qualities. These qualities also
acquire co curricular activities as well. Co-curricular activities are
therefore a series of activities related with the school or college program,
which help to bring out all round development of the students, outside
the subjects for examination schedule.
Co-Curricular Activities facilitate in the development of various domains of
mind and personality such as intellectual development, emotional
development, social development, moral development and aesthetic
development. Creativity, Enthusiasm, and Energetic, Positive thinking are
some of the facets of personality development and the outcomes of Co
Curricular Activities or Extracurricular Activities.
Co-Curricular Activities are essential part of curriculum. These activities are
important for the harmonious development of the personality. Earlier the
activities like games, sports, excursions, picnics, singing, drawing, painting
etc. were not included in the curriculum and considered as Extra –curricular
activities. But now the importance of these activities is recognized by modern
educationists. Therefore these activities are included in the total education
program of school as well as college and turned as Co-Curricular Activities.
In this lesson, you are going to understand about the concept of Curricular
and Co-Curricular Activities, categorizing the Co-Curricular Activities and the
importance of organising Co-Curricular Activities in educational institutions.
5
As the term curriculum generally refers to the academic program of school
and college in which the work is been done within the classroom, in contrast,
the co-curriculum encompasses all activities that are held outside the regular
curriculum. In some cases, in conjunction with the normal academic timetable
of scheduled classes, the school as well as college to enable students to
develop further all aspects of their character provided in these. The Co-
Curriculum plays a vital role in providing a variety of options within the school
and college environment so that all students can find educational pathways
that match their individual preferences and abilities. Through participating in
the Co Curriculum, students shall be able to learn to live together and
contribute to academic development and expand their interests, and skills
beyond the norm, giving them the course work opportunity to enrich their
lives by experiencing activities which otherwise might have passed them by.
There are certain protocol and principles laid down by educational institutions
i.e. school and college for co curricular and extracurricular activities .Co-
curricular activities exist at all the levels of education, i.e. at pre primary,
primary, secondary, higher secondary, degree college as well as university
education. These activities are compulsory in some institutions while in
others it's voluntary. Where these are compulsory all school students must
participate them alongside the standard study curriculum. At higher levels of
education student participation generally include academic points in lieu of the
efforts put by a student in a particular activity. These are held outside
standard curriculum hours and the activities are taken depend on the nature
of the institute and occasion. Catholic convent schools have generally have
Christmas celebration as a major part of the co-curricular activities due to
6
catholic significance. While some schools are more inclined towards annual
function. Some give significance to both.
Today these activities have become more profound than ever before. Most of
the institutes highlight them as a crucial advertising factor in their prospectus
Advertisements in order to attract parent-students attention. Though not all of
these activities may pursued with great enthusiasm these are however
popular and leave a lifelong lasting experience for most. These activities are
not examined in the same way that the academic curriculum is, and because
most of them take place outside lessons, such activities have less status in
education than the main curriculum. However, they are often held to be very
important to the wider education of young men and women.
Co-Curricular Activities form the core of students' life. Many schools and
colleges have different units like clubs or houses in which all the students
have been divided into four houses. Each club or house has a club in charge
or house Master and staff of the school or college to guide the students for
various internal competitions. These competitions improves the physical as
well as mental abilities and skills of participant students.
Time should be made available in the school and college timetable for Co-
Curricular Activities for all students. School and College shall organize Co-
Curricular Activities taking into consideration locally available resources.
Co-Curricular Activities includes Indoor CCAs and Outdoor CCAs. These can be classified as under : 1. PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES : These activities are essential for physical development and for channelizing
the superfluous energy of pupils. Games, Sports, Athletics, Mass Drill,
Writing Poems, Album Making, Cartooning, Picnics, Excursions, Visit to
Monuments, Museums are included in these activities.
7. CIVIC DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES : These activities provide rich experience of the civil life to the leaner. These
activities are Mock Polling Station, Mock Parliament, Mock Court, Student’s
Cooperative Store and Visiting Civil Institutions like Panchayat, Post Office,
Police Stations, Legislative Assembly and Celebrating of Festivals etc.
8. MORAL DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES : These activities promote moral development of pupils. These activities
include Morning Assembly, Mass Prayer, Celebrations of Birthdays of Great
Men, Quiz on the teaching of Great men, Social Service Activities etc.
9. PATRIOTIC ACTIVITIES : These activities are meant for promoting the feeling of emotional & national
integration among the students. These are celebration of National Days (i.e.
Independence day and Republic day), Student Exchange Programme,
Bharat Darshan Tours, National Integration Camps and Cross Cultural
Programmes etc.
For holistic development or non academic development various in house
or inter school or inter collegiate competitions are conducted by schools or
colleges, which develops various personality traits in students such as
adaptation, self confidence, honesty, sympathetic attitude, social obligation,
sense of responsibility, time management, team work and leadership
qualities. In Modern Competitive world each and everyone wants to become
all rounder in various activities, so these Co Curricular Activities provides
them a good platform to improve and develop their personality.

Academic Development of Junior College Students in Mumbai city.

CHAPTER - 2
LITERATURE REVIEW AND A GAP ANALYSIS
2.1 LITERATURE REVIEW :
The making of man was regarded as an artistic and not a mechanical
process. Indeed, the aim of education is to develop pupil's personality, his
innate and latent capacity. The academic curriculum has never been all that
schools and colleges offer to their students. Often a range of other classes
and activities are available to students in class routine and even after school
and college hours. These are referred to as the co-curricular activities and
they are mostly voluntary for students. Examples would include sports,
games, community service, social services, religious study groups, charitable
fund raising, Young Enterprise projects, military cadet activities, cultural
activities like dance, singing, drama, street play, debate, elocution, essay
writing, story writing, science clubs, and hobbies such as gardening, crafts,
cookery, coin collection, stamp collection etc.
Co-Curricular Activities prepare students practically for the future. Modern
education has recognized that when the child comes to the school or
college, he comes in mentally, physically, spiritually, socially, and vocationally
and as such he must be educated in all of them, now it is recognized that
these activities are valuable media for developing proper attitudes, habits,
interests, ideals among people, because of their importance in education,
they have been renamed as co-curricular activities as they form an integral
part of the school and college curriculum. The organization, therefore, needs
much care and forethought.
India has the largest democracy in the present world. Democracies, as
12
we know, are nourished by democratic methods adopted in the various
institutions of a country. It depends more on the quality of its schools
and colleges than on the educational contribution of any other single
social institution with the possible exceptions of the home .The quality of
the schools as well as colleges will depend upon the educational
experiences provided to the students . Co curricular activities form a vital
link in the pattern of blended educational experiences which is very much
essential for all boys and girls in the modern Indian School and College.
A great variety of education experience is to be provided in the
School and College programme which may contribute to a long, happy
and normal life. Only well – adjusted citizens will be able to ensure national
development in all its parameters.
These educative experiences comprise experiences inside as well as
outside the classroom, curriculum as well as curricular, extracurricular,
as well as co - curricular to cover all facets of growth pattern and
ensure balanced development of the child and good citizenship for the
country. In fact, the distinction between the curricular and extracurricular
must cease to exist.
The Education Commission also stressed ; “ We conceive of the school
curriculum as the totality of learning experiences that the school
curriculum as the totality of learning experience that the school provides
for the pupils through all the manifold activities, in the school or outside,
that are carried on under its super vision.”
Each country has its own unique education system. School as well as
College should not solely aim at simply imparting academic content to
13
students. Co curricular activities are activities that enhance and enrich
the regular curriculum during normal school and college days.
Co curricular or Extracurricular or non academic activities are found at
all the levels of school and college in many different forms. Which can
be sports, subject clubs, cultural activities such as debate, drama, Street
play, dance, singing, student council and other social events. A student’s
future can be determined in the things that they do in the hours after
and before their parents get home.
All over the universe, many scholars have analyzed that the Co -
Curricular, Extracurricular or Non Academic Activities develops over all
personality of students in various ways.
Some of the authors and scholars have given their theory as under :
Amy, F. Feldman & Jennifer, L. Matjasko (2011) The role of school-based
Extracurricular Activities in Adolescent Development reviews the
contemporary literature on school-based activity participation, focusing on
patterns of participation, academic achievement, substance use, sexual
activity, psychological adjustment, delinquency, and young adult outcomes.
Also, the authors discuss possible mediators and moderators of
extracurricular activity participation in regard to adolescent development. The
review indicates that the associations between school-based activity
participation and these outcomes are mostly positive but that the picture
becomes mixed once moderator variables are included. The authors suggest
areas for future research that include using new methods for measuring
activities and applying an overarching theoretical framework to investigations
of extracurricular activities and adolescent development.
14
Finally, to move toward a causal model of activities and adolescent
functioning, future research must consider the mechanisms through which
activities exert their influence on development. The authors propose several
possible mechanisms of participation in terms of adjustment during
adolescence and young adulthood.
American Sociological Association (2011) Linking Extracurricular
Programming to Academic Achievement analyzes data from the National
Educational Longitudinal Study of 1988 to test the effect of participation in
extracurricular activities on high school achievement. It also explores
potential mediating mechanisms that link such participation to academic
success. The results show that participation in some activities improves
achievement, while participation in others diminishes achievement.
Participation in interscholastic sports promotes students' development and
social ties among students, parents, and schools, and these benefits explain
the positive effect of participation on achievement.
According to Mahatma Gandhi , "By education, I mean an all round
drawing out of the best in child and man - body, mind and spirit."
All roundness is the theme of modern education which recognizes that
when the child comes to the school, he comes for mental, physical,
social, spiritual and vocational education and as such he must be
educated and nourished in all of them.
According to Indian Education System , “ Co-Curricular and Extracurricular
Activities General policy : "Recognizing the importance of providing
educational activities that enrich and broaden student experiences as an
integral part of the curriculum as well as beyond the normal academic day, the
15
School Committee supports the development of co-curricular and
extracurricular programs in accordance with the policies established by the
School Department. Co-curricular programs are defined as those activities
that enhance and enrich the regular curriculum during the normal school day.
Extracurricular programs are defined as those activities that broaden the
educational experience which usually take place beyond the normal school
day. Students who desire to participate on athletic teams shall do so on a
volunteer basis with the understanding that it is a privilege and not a right to
be a member of a school team. All students are invited to participate, but it is
recognized that some students may not be capable of competing at the varsity
level. At non-varsity levels, participation may be restricted based on safety
and space restrictions. It shall be the policy of the School Department to
compete in interscholastic athletics sanctioned by the Rhode Island
Interscholastic League and to abide by that organization's rules and
regulations. Activities should be designed to meet the needs of and to
stimulate interests expressed by students and should cover a broad range of
abilities. There shall be equal opportunities for all students to participate in
such programs. The expenses of voluntary activities may be covered by the
students, the school, school-related organizations, and / or non-school
groups." Elementary Level
Recognizing the positive aspects of co-curricular programs that enrich and
enhance the regular elementary school and college program, the School and
college Committee supports the development of such activities in all areas of
the approved curriculum. “
According to Prof. Dr. R Gopal , a Director, Dean and Head of D Y Patil
16
University, Navi Mumbai, School of Management, published his article in
DNA Academy Newspaper, Mumbai. on Tuesday, September 11, 2012.
He highlighted certain aspects of Students Holistic Development were
elaborated in his article in which he expressed that : “ Industry desires
that the MBA Graduate should have Holistic Development. Socially
Involved Projects ( SIP ) also leads to this and in turn, results in a
Study Life Balance ( SLB ) concept where in the student enjoy the high
demand student life of a MBA. The objective of these projects is to
create an awareness of the social issues and through this awareness
the self development measured in terms of group working, negotiations,
communication skills, ethical working etc. In many cases, the student
could also become not just a manager but a leader himself or even an
entrepreneur. SIP projects could include for example; blood donation
camps, eye camps, awareness of HIV, clean Mumbai projects etc.
One another noteworthy project adopted through the SIP group involved
adopting a village and carrying out activities in the area of women
empowerment, microfinance etc. Through these SIP projects, diverse
groups of students, villagers and other stake holders come together,
think of plan and implement the same. The initial fright of how to
approach, how to communicate with unknown persons, the negotiating
skills, group dynamics etc are all practically learnt and implemented.
In implementing these SIP projects it is a case of perform or perish.
Ways need to be evolved to ensure these projects are successful. The
logistic of the entire project is sometimes very crucial and needs to be
carefully studied. Thus for example, the issue in a case of blood
17
donation camp would involve identifying the donors, collaboration with a
group of doctors or NGO, identifying and collaborating with a blood
bank, having an ambulance ready in hand in case of emergency etc.
Most importantly ensuring that cleanliness, storage facility of the blood
are strictly adhered to as per norms. After the blood donation camp,
collecting the blood donor's card and distributing the same to the
donors. In the blood donation camp, the logistics aspects are extremely
important for the success of the project.
SIP projects provide opportunities to the students to develop himself
holistically. This will help him to hold himself in the corporate world -
an important aspect which the corporate looks at evaluating a student. "
2.2 RESEARCH GAP IDENTIFICATION :
The available literature suggests that Co Curricular Activities develop
students personality which are equally important along with academic
Curriculum.
As there are very less number of studies available on CCAs which
provides studied on impact of co curricular activities on non - academic
development of junior college students with specific reference to Mumbai
city, so it is difficult to give any gap analysis or review on the study.
It is in this context, that this literature survey proved useful to the
researcher in identifying the gap analysis and accordingly the research
design has been evolved, so as to explore impact of CCAs on non -
academic aspect of the students development of junior college students
in Mumbai city.
18
RESEARCH GAP :
The Literature Review reveals that there are practically very few
students available on theses research topic.

CHAPTER - 3
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
3.1 NEED FOR THE STUDY / PURPOSE OF THE STUDY : Study suggest that Co Curricular Activities are needed for the overall
development or holistic development of each and every child because it
brings holistic and sustainable growth in the student. It calls for co
operation, group work, sincerity and discipline which are very essential for
all the students to understand and develop within themselves, which is
possible only with the help of CCAs.
Study found that these activities install the moral values in the students,
leadership quality, team work and also prepares them to take on bigger
goals and challenges in their life. These activities include uniformed
bodies, societies, clubs and games. Every School and Colleges should
be involved in at least one activity from each unit of the co curricular
activities offered in their school and college.
There are many advantages that students can reap by taking part in
CCAs.
( 1 ) Students learn to socialize and interact through the activities that
they take part in when they join any CCA. They make friends, learn to
give and take besides respecting their teachers and friends.
( 2 ) They learn to be leaders and assume responsibilities which
accelerate not only attitude but also aptitude that will determine students
altitude. Therefore the importance of CCAs is for shaping the attitudes
of our future generation.
( 3 ) By joining a CCA, the students fill up their time constructively. They
21
learn to be involved in healthy activities that will build up their self
confidence and self esteem.
The study conducted for getting a deep knowledge and idea about the
impact of Co Curricular Activities on non academic aspect of the
students holistic development.
The need and purpose of the study was to know, how students
personality can be transformed and developed with the help of various
CCAs which are been conducted while studying in school and college.
The purpose of the study was to highlight, that CCAs plays a vital and
significant role in the life of students. It provides lots of knowledge and
managerial ability to students. Not only physically but also mentally
students personality gets developed with the help of various CCAs.
In today's modern era students need to be all rounder and are focus
on excellences in all the aspects of i.e. academically as well as non
academically. Therefore CCAs provides a good platform to shape up
their present and future by giving opportunities to participate in it.
Due to Globalization and privatisation of educational sector, each
educational institutions give ample chance to their students to become
all rounder by CCAs participation. Some ambitious students always
participate in CCAs to win the race. Which highlights that there is
cut throat competition to win, which develops fair competitive sprit
within the students.
Hence it becomes necessary to conduct a comprehensive research in
terms of students participation in CCAs and their personality
development through CCAs. This also helps to judge whether CCAs
22
results into positive or negative impact on non academic aspect of
students holistic development and personality development.
The need of this project also arose because an extensive survey can
help the school, college, teachers, parents, and students to make them
understand that CCAs plays a vital role in the life of students.
The study mainly focused on discovering the factors that students are
aware about CCAs liking, participating or non participating in CCAs and
their scholastic as well as non scholastic development.
The study was restricted to only to four colleges of Mumbai city and
targeted only junior college students as they are alert and matured to
take their own decisions to improve themselves i.e. academically as
well as non academically.
3.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY : Based on the secondary data, literature review and the gaps identified
the objectives of the study:
1. To study the different aspects of Co Curricular Activities. 2. To study the different aspects of Non Academic Development. 3. To study the impact of Co Curricular Activities on the Non Academic Development of Students. ( e.g. Non Academic development includes different traits such as

CO CURRICUALR ACTIVITIES - AN OVERVIEW
5.1 CONCEPT OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES : Four decades ago it was comparatively easy to define Co Curricular
Activities because all of them were organized and promoted largely by
students themselves, with relatively little assistance from teachers and
administrators. Equipments were meager, little official recognition was
given and no credit was allowed for CCAs participation. These activities
were really Extracurricular.
Today, it is difficult to define Co Curricular Activities because all
teachers have some or definite responsibilities for their organization.
Therefore many full time CCAs professional teachers are employed.
School or College classrooms are provided to them for conducting
CCAs with proper time equipment and CCAs materials. Their
relationships with regular curricular activities are regarded as vital
activities. They are given credit for encouraging and allowing students
to participate in CCAs which gives them recognition.
In Short, we can say that according to modern education thinkers,
curriculum is not only teaching and learning in classroom. It also
includes work in library, laboratory and workshop, participation in games
and sports in playground and numerous informal contacts between
teacher and students in these places. In these informal contacts there
are many activities. One of which is Co Curricular Activities. It is a part
of curriculum of the institution.
Education is aimed at the harmonious and all round development of
34
personality. This development of personality is in terms of physical, mental,
social, emotional, aesthetic & cultural dimensions. For the development of all
these aspects of personality of an individual, there is need to organise various
activities in and out of class room. The activities like games, sports, athletics,
singing, dancing, painting, hobbies etc. provide opportunities for self
expressions and ensure wholesome development of personality.
Earlier, when the curriculum was dominated by the academic subjects, these
activities were not recognized as essential part of curriculum. In the
traditional curriculum, these activities were known as Extracurricular activities.
But now, the modern educators have recognized these activities as essential
and integral part of the curriculum. These activities are planned by the
Schools and colleges in addition to the usual academic work. Through
participating in these activities, student learns democratic behavior. These
activities are helpful in the development of feelings of loyalty & cooperation.
These activities form an important of the curriculum & have immense
educational value. Therefore, all those activities which are organized outside
the class room but are the important and essential part of the curriculum are
termed as Co-Curricular Activities.
Curricular and Co-curricular activities are complementary to each other.
According to “Secondary Education Commission” report on Co-Curricular
Activities- “They are as integral part of activities of the school as its curricular
work and their proper organization needs just as much case & foresight if
they are properly conducted, they can help in the development of very
valuable attitudes and qualities.”
5.2 MEANING OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
35
“Co Curricular Activities” means activities conducted on or off school or
college premises by clubs, associations and organizations of pupils
sponsored by the Board of Education. Co Curricular Activities also
includes the pupil clubs, associations and organizations that conduct
those activities.
Co Curricular Activities (CCAs) previously known as Extracurricular
Activities (ECAs) are activities that educational organizations in some
parts of the world create for School students and at present extended for
Junior as well as Senior College Students They are activities which all
students must attend alongside. Which believes extra activities for school
and college students are a means to enhance social interaction,
leadership, healthy recreation, self discipline and self confidence. At
higher levels of education, Co Curricular participation many even
translate into academic points.
Co curricular activities (CCAs) earlier known as Extracurricular
Activities (ECAs) are the components of Non-Academic Curriculum
which helps to develop various facets of the personality development
of the child and students. For all round development of the child, there
is a need of emotional, physical, spiritual and moral development that
is complemented and supplemented by Co Curricular Activities. Activities
which complement but are not part of the conventional academic curriculum. It
means that Co-curricular activities are those activities which fall outside the
regular academic curriculum yet they are a part of schooling or collegiate life.
These are observed in tandem with an institute’s curriculum and have a yearly
schedule. Most of the educational organisations in various different parts of
36
the world facilitate these activities for school and college students. Faculty is
mostly involved in organising and directing these activities in schools while it
may be independent from faculty in universities or colleges.
The meaning of Co-Curricular Activities revolves around its different feature
and characteristics. For the overall development of a child, curriculum is not
only the single criteria. The holistic growth as well as to develop the various
facets of personality of children; classroom teaching should be supplemented
with co-curricular activities. These out of class activities affect all domains of
life such as cognitive (intellectual), emotional, social, moral, cultural and
aesthetic. Co-curricular activities meaning are more focused upon cognitive
aspects thereby help in intellectual development. Competitiveness,
excellence, quality achievements, creativeness and enthusiasm are few of the
ethics of extra-curricular activities and also strengthen the meaning of Co
Curricular Activities in school and college. Non-academic activity in the form
of Co Curricular one provides support to students to venture into professional
fields like fashion, music, painting, art, acting, photography, printing and many
more. That’s why students need co-curricular activities, which helps in
enhancing many skill developments. Importance of Co Curricular
Activities have increased manifold in modern life. However, co-curricular
meaning varies to little bit as per place, time and space.
Importance of co curricular activity in school and college curriculum has been
widely acknowledged by many countries in their respective Curriculum
Frameworks. The same case is also noticed with National Curriculum
activities etc. were quite common. Warfare, community services, archery were
common in Spartan Civilization of Greece. More or less same things may
also be observed in Roman civilization.
Therefore, Co Curricular Activities are not new to the modern curricular
education syllabi. It can be traced into Indian ancient schools, gurukuls, and
religious places. All the Indian scriptures like Mahabharata, Ramayana, Veda,
Upanishad, etc., mentioned about extra-curricular activities. In the ancient
times, simple Co-Curricular Activities in school were organized such as
wrestling, cooking, singing, playing, magic, etc. In rest parts of the world, Co-
Curricular programmes were common in various ancient civilizations.
In Spartan Civilization (Greece) warfare, heroic activities, archery, creativity
and artistic talents were widespread. In Roman Civilization, concrete arts and
crafts, and religious ceremonies were given importance. In the dark history of
Europe, extra-curricular activities were also the part and parcel of life. During
reformation period, such activities got patronage.
The Extra Curriculum made its first appearance in colleges in the nineteenth
century. It complemented the curriculum as much as subverted it. The
students found in it a kind of laboratory for practical and vocational interests.
The first extracurricular activities were student literary societies (which had
roots in the previous century at Harvard and Yale.), debate clubs, and by
mid-century, Greek letter " fraternities and sororities ". Students also initiated
42
and organized the early athletic programs on American college campuses.
Literary societies were on the decline by the turn of the twentieth century, and
some educators felt that less desirable extracurricular activities were now
distracting students from their curricular responsibilities. Intercollegiate
athletics soon became the dominant element in the extra curriculum in most
American colleges and high schools
Such activities as school newspaper and interschool sports programs have
been part of American high schools since the World War Era. Today’s public
high schools offer a comprehensive array of extracurricular activities to
complement the curriculum. Activities that often involve some time
commitment outside of the regular school day, such as band and choir, are
also considered extracurricular activities.
Great educational thinkers such as Rousseau, Herbert Spencer, Dewey, all
gave much more importance of co-curricular activity in school education.
According to them, Co-curricular activities play vital role in students life.
Gandhi Ji gave an idea of 'Basic Education' in 1938 and Dr. Zakir Hussein,
the Vice Chancellor of Jamia Milia Islamia developed the curriculum of
Basic Education, on the lines suggested by Gandhi Ji, co curricular activities
were given their due place in the form of physical, socio cultural and craft
activities.
The Secondary Education Commission (1952) remarks - " The School is
not merely a place of formal learning whose main concern is to
communicate a certain prescribed quantum of knowledge but as a living
and organic community which is primarily interested in training its pupils
in what we have called the gracious " Art of living ". Knowledge and
43
learning are undoubtedly of value but they must be acquired as by -
product of interested activity because it is only then that they can become a
vital part of the student's mind and personality and influence his behavior. But
the art of living is much more comprehensive concept than the acquisition of
knowledge, however intelligently planned. It includes training in the habits and
graces of social life and capacity for co-operative group work: it calls for
patience, good temper, sincerity, fellow feeling and discipline. This can only
be cultivated in the context of the social life and the many curricular activities
that must find a recognized place in every school. And if we look into present
scenario, in all walks of life, in careers options lively creative, enthusiastic and
energetic positive thinkers are preferred. Therefore, to prepare the students
future, for their future, for their successful career educational institution need
to give equal weightage and strike a right balance between academic and co-
curricular activities. Only then the aim of all round development of the child
can be achieved.
Co Curricular Activities are mainly cognitive (intellectual) in nature and
concentrate on the intellectual growth of the student. But intellectual
developments is not the only aim of education. The main aim of education is
all round development of personality of the child that is besides intellectual
growth, education should also cater to the emotional, physical, spiritual and
moral development or the all-round growth. There is the need of the co-
curricular activities.
According to Mittal (1996), “Various Social and this type of activities like
literary, dramatic, social services etc. which attracted the attention of the child
were considered as extra co curricular activities. Extra-co-curricular activities
44
have been renamed by educationists as co curricular activities, which imply
all these activities are a part of school curriculum'' .According to Aggarwal
(2000),
“Co-Curricular Activities were mainly organized after school hours and so
were the extracurricular but they are not an integral part of the activities of the
school as its curricular work''.
So in brief, Co Curricular Activities have very wide scope. They may reinforce
and give broader and deeper understanding and comprehension to the
intellectual pursuits, by and large, made in class room. In addition, they cater
to the cultural, social, aesthetic development of the child; the sine quanon [an
indispensable component] of any and every good education system.
Co-curricular activities provide ample opportunities for the inculcation of
democratic values and self discipline. In spite of strong recommendations of
various commissions, committees and study groups in favor of co-curricular
activities, they have not been given due place on the school or college
curriculum.
Some studies drew attention in this respect. Desai (1963) analyzed the need
for physical education for girls in India, Agarkar (1947) recommended
introduction of folk dance in the school curriculum as a means of physical
education, Chaturvedi (1957) discussed the role of craft as a medium of
education in elementary schools. Pani (1969) found that participation and
achievement of pupils in co-curricular activities help in the personal
development of the pupil. Gopi (1981) explored the status of games and
sports in secondary schools of Allahabad. It was observed that lack of
interest among students and teachers, teachers’ involvement in tuitions and
45
financial constraints were the primary factors for the low standards of games
and sports. Most of these studies substantiate that co-curricular activities
have a great potential for training the students in cooperative group behavior
and leadership.
5.5 FEATURES OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
There are many characteristics of Co-Curricular Activities, which directly or
indirectly help the classroom teaching of students. Co-curricular activities
supplement and complement the entire teaching-learning process and
effectively impact student earning outcomes. It strengthens the classroom
teaching and helps to clear the concept of topics. Extra-curricular activities
give emphasize upon aesthetic as well as spiritual development, which are
the essential components of education. It helps in developing features like
speech fluency and extempore. Such activities are good platform to excel in
acting, singing, speaking, and recitation. Thus, CCAs becomes the integral
part of school and college curriculum and student’s life.
The Education Model is founded on the following characteristics that are
present in all courses regardless of their level and academic field :
(1) ACTIVE LEARNING :
The school and college environment is designed to offer students multiple
opportunities to actively participate in professional and personal development
endeavours. Within this context, students may discover, process and apply
their acquired knowledge in a relevant and significant way both within and
outside the classroom. Through the institutional use of several didactic
techniques such as Problem Based Learning, Project Oriented Learning,
Collaborative Learning, Service Learning, Case Method or Research based
46
Learning among others, students become involved in a planned and
programmed manner in the construction of their knowledge. Students then
develop the foreseen competencies contained in the graduate profile and the
institutional mission. The faculty’s profile stands out because of their
development in a professional field alongside an intense training for docent
work fostered by the same institution. They may design and guide carefully
structured teaching processes where students achieve a maximized outcome
from their participation.
(2) SELF-REGULATED LEARNING :
An important objective of school and college learning model is that students
develop abilities that allow them to continue learning throughout their lives.
Because of this, throughout their academic course work they will be
systematically facing challenging educational situations that require high
yielding academic results. They also confront a heavy workload that contains
motivational elements that foster within students a capacity to administer their
learning by establishing goals and reflecting on the accomplishments attained.
In this process, students can constantly rely on the orientation and support of
faculty, as well as a great deal of physical, technological and human
resources that the institution offers.
(3) HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT : As actions linked to professional development in such a way that it integrates a diversity of strategies based on transversal school and college education
and co-curricular activities. The objective is to promote within the student
body some reflection on the issues within their own social, economic, political
and ecological environment. Their perspective must encompass both a social
47
and professional spheres.
Figure No.5.1 : Holistic Development of Students through CCAs
( Sources : www.google.com.images extracted on March, 2014 )
Because of this, within student development there is a strong emphasis on
participation in community intervention projects as well as in programs for
Entrepreneurial internationalization and cultural development options.
Application of knowledge and innovation to improve competitiveness in
business relies on the attendance and organization of congresses as well as
in the promotion and organization of cultural and sport activities. This is
encouraged strongly in student life.
By promoting participation in this type of activities, students are encouraged to
assume a series of values such as cultural appreciation, self-confidence,
concern and committed responsibility with health issues as well as
co curricular activities. Excursions and tours provide firsthand experience
and reinforce classroom knowledge in subjects like history, geography,
nature study, visit to different places etc. Language and expression
improves though debates and recitations. Teaching of History gets vitalized
by dramatization. Practical lessons in Civics can be given through
student self-government. College magazines teach students the art of
writing forcefully and effectively. Celebration of various functions
develops organizational capacities and leadership qualities in students.
Project of various subjects provides direct learning opportunities.
2. PSYCHOLOGICAL VALUE :
These activities as the name suggests meet the psychological needs of the
students, mainly with reference to social demands of the pupils. They help in
expressing personal behavior and provide a vehicle for creative thinking.
( i ) These Activities act as Agent for Sublimation of the Instincts :
Co-curricular activities are a means of channelizing students' instincts into
healthy and fruitful channels e.g. instinct of curiosity can be fruitfully
channelized by library, stamp and coin collection etc. The instinct of
gregariousness can be directed through self-government, social service and
other group work.
( ii ) Emotional Health :
A student is a bundle of innate urges or drives. It is natural for him/her to be
curious, to show off, to master, to be loyal and to be sympathetic. Co-
curricular activities provide valuable opportunities in which these drives may
be capitalized for educational benefit. But fortunately or unfortunately, they
may not come up to the required expectation e.g. some students who are
82
backward in studies develop inferiority complex and find school life disgusting
and can get emotionally unbalanced. Such activities provide a means of
emotional adjustment for students.
( iii ) To Increase the Interest of Students :
A student who gives his / her time and effort to his / her school or college is,
therefore, more interested in it, because of his / her contributions e.g. the
athlete talks about school and college spirit.
( iv ) Recognition of Individual Differences Co-curricular Activities :
By providing a number of co-curricular activities, we can ensure the
expression of potential capacities of each individual e.g. writing, public
speaking, dramatics, painting, different games and sports, organization of
functions etc. which provide training in different aspects of personality of
students. These activities, thus, cater to aptitude, interests and abilities of
students and sometimes act as a determining factor for the choice of future
vocation.
3. DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL VALUE :
Social cooperation is recognized as one of the important demands of
citizenship. It is difficult to teach through different subjects like Languages,
Mathematics, Sciences, Commerce and Management or Social Sciences. By
'participating in group activities, students learn good manners and develop a
sense of cooperation. Membership in a club, student council, dramatic cast or
an athletic team requires co operation. Students learn to appreciate the
relationship of an individual to the social group.
Through team activities, students learn social cooperation. They develop
group spirit, "WE" - feeling, belongingness, unity and ability to be co-
83
operative.
4. DEVELOPMENT OF CIVIC VALUE : In group activities students learn the value of doing one's duty. For example,
students' self-government in school and colleges provides an excellent
training in exercising one's franchise and shouldering responsibilities. These
activities train the students for good citizenship. Co curricular activities offer
many opportunities for the development of self-discipline e.g. NCC (National
Cadet Corps )and NSS (National Social Services). They develop in students
a spirit of toleration of others' views, healthy exchange of ideas, fellow feeling
and accepting victory and defeat with grace. Secondly, the school and
college is a miniature society and the activities of the school and college
should have direct relations with the activities of the society.
Qualities like initiative and leadership are not always developed in a
classroom. On the playground, students get opportunities to develop
leadership qualities like initiative, decision-making, judgment, tolerance etc.
These qualities are required for a democratic society. Many girls and boys
have little practice in controlling themselves and in directing their own affairs.
They have not developed the ability to do these things. As a result, when they
are placed in settings that demand self-direction, they are lost. Co-curricular
activities provide numerous situations in which students may gradually get
increasing responsibilities for their own direction. The settings for developing
these carry-over values must be definitely provided. A school must be a
workshop in democracy.
The traits and qualities of leadership are developed in students, when they
organize these activities by themselves under the guidance of teachers.
84
Students learn to plan, organize and execute the plan that has been
developed. This develops in them initiative, planning, thinking and power of
independent judgment. These activities provide excellent moral training.
Through these activities are learnt the importance of obeying the law, rules
and regulations, love for truth and above all, these activities develop moral
consciousness by providing moral experiences. For example, a boy in charge
of finances has to act honestly. On the play field, one has to show sportsman
spirit.
5. PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT VALUE :
While games, sports and athletics directly contribute to physical development
of students, other co-curricular activities also indirectly contribute to it. These
activities provide a useful channel for the growth and development of the
body.
6. RECREATIONAL VALUE : Lack of ability and training in proper utilization of one's leisure time is one of the major defects in our present system of education. By providing and
organizing various activities, we provide wholesome opportunities to our
students, rather than to spend their spare time in undesirable activities e.g.
Movies, Television, idle talk etc. Hobbies developed at the junior college l
stage become lifelong habits.
7. CULTURAL VIRTUE :
Some Co Curricular Activities are of tremendous value, as they help in
providing opportunities for better understanding of our cultural heritage and
traditions, for example, activities like dramatics, folk songs, dance, folk music,
exhibitions and celebration of various religious and social festivals provide
85
better knowledge and understanding of our culture, foster cultural tastes and
awaken cultural interests among students. Student would appreciate to learn
all these though our language, religion, culture, food habits, dress etc. are
different but we are one, and that we are leman beings of the same universe.
Thus, Co-Curricular Activities will help in developing national and international
understanding. We can concede by saying that co-curricular activities cater to
the development of a child's entire personality, draw out the latent powers of
children of different temperaments, supplement academic work, develop
social and civic sense. Without these activities students would be mere book-
worms.
These activities are really important as they have a potential of developing the
intellect of a student which is always not possible with theoretic procedures.
For this co-curricular activities need to be effective so that they can give the
right exposure to the mind. When effective these activities provide a practical
hands-on approach to the students which provide similar experiences which
they will face in the outside world. Such experiences go a long way in
producing multi-faceted personalities which, in due course of time may bring
honour to the country as well. Students have a right to a broad education. A
wide range of experiences prepare students better for the future, especially in
today’s uncertain world. Broad education can provide better preparation for
life in a society where an individual may need to change career several times
in their life. Student minds aren't mature enough to ascertain what's good and
what's bad for them? Their decisions may be influenced by peer pressure etc.
but at the same time these activities should not be forced. Co-curricular
activities need to be more refined, varied and interesting so as to be widely
86
accepted and successful. A successful co-curriculum builds links between
the school or college and the wider community, bringing local enthusiasts in
to work with students, and sending students out to work on community
projects. Many children have talents in all sorts of different areas, and it is
wrong to force them to specialize too early. A career is not the only part of an
adult’s life –school and college needs to make sure they have interests and
skills that will help them in their family and leisure lives too. Through equal
balancing of academic and co-curriculum, the students have the chance to
exercise their rights and the opportunity to be multi-talented.

7.3 BENEFITS OF CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
“A winning part of a complete education!”
Participation in school or college activities benefits everyone i.e. students,

* Research shows that students involved in co-curricular activities are more
likely to have :
Higher college admission test scores
Better attendance
Lower dropout rates
Fewer discipline referrals

88
by placing a premium on personal health and fitness as prerequisites to
optimal performance. Those who participate in co-curricular activities are
less likely to engage in risky behaviors.
* From a cost standpoint, activity programs are an exceptional bargain
when matched against the overall junior college district’s education
budget. At a cost of only one to three percent (or less in many cases) of
an overall school and college budget.
* Participation enhances the overall educational experience of the student.
7.4 STUDENTS DEVELOPMENT THROUGH CCAs :
Students gets many benefits by participating in Co curricular Activities.
It helps in overall Development of students as under :
Celebration of festival such as Gokul Asthami ( Dahi Handi), Ganesh Utsav, Navratri Dandiya, Christmas Party etc.

The CCAs advisor should, at the end of the activities, file a report that may
include the theme of the activities, the content of the meetings, the list of
participating organizers, members and students, a summary of income and
expenses, and the feedback from the participants.
The above mentioned duties fall into the general responsibilities of CCAs
advisor. However, the points listed are not exhaustive, since the duties of an
CCAs advisor are by nature wide-ranging and complex. The school is advised
to make adjustments according to its own circumstances.
As long as the advisor is devoted and flexible, students will undoubtedly
benefit from their participation in CCAs.
8.3 ORGANIZATION OF CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
According to Singh and Singh (2007) the objective of Co Curricular
Activities can only be achieved by effective implementation of such
activities. It requires following fulfilments by school and college
administrators or instructors or in charge teachers.
The Administrators have firm belief in the effectiveness of such
activities for holistic development of students.
The Administrators should have knowledge about them and have
participatory experience of such activities.
The Administrators, teachers and Parents should appreciate
participation by students in such activities.
The Administrators, Teacher and Parents should be oriented in
111
such activities through training programs.
The functioning for organization of such activities requires functioning
through formation of committees of teachers and students.
8.4 IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION OF CCAs :
( 1 ) SETTING GOALS :
Since CCAs are part of the curriculum to promote life-wide learning, they
can be seen as a means of accomplishing the goals of education. It follows
that before carrying out CCAs, we should set up distinct goals according to
the environment of the individual schools and the needs of students. These
goals should include aspects related to intellectual, physical, social and
personality development. After the establishment of the goals, appropriate
activities should be selected, with due consideration paid to the format and
content which will enable the participants to best achieve these goals.
Evidently, not only do CCAs fulfil the developmental goals of students, they
also contribute to the growth of the curriculum, school and teachers. These
are important means to promote cross-curricular activities in civic education
and moral education, to foster the relationship between teachers and
students, and to create a harmonious junior college climate.
( 2 ) USE OF MANPOWER RESOURCES FOR CCAs :
Following the setting of the goals, format and content of the activity, suitable
personnel should be enlisted to plan and carry out the work. These include
CCAs advisors, teachers, students, alumni, voluntary helpers from local
community, as well as parents and other staff in junior college. The CCAs Co-
coordinator should serve as a link among the different parties. It is most
important of all to train the students to organise activities. Not only does this
112
help the activity to continue for a longer period, it also develops the students’
leadership ability, which remains one of the CCAs goals.
( 3 ) PREPARE THE SCHEMES OF CCAs :
This does not simply involve devising activities and following up with the
recruitment of participants. It also represents a stage in school and college
development that should take into account students’ interests and
orientations in order to achieve the goals of education.
( 4 ) ESTABLISHMENT OF VARIOUS CLUBS AND GROUPS :
In relation to the set goals of CCAs, we can either organise a one-off function
or achieve the goals through the establishment of regular clubs or groups. In
general, CCAs clubs can be categorized into five types, namely, academic,
sports, art, interest and social services. Depending on the situation of the
individual school, the school itself may set up a balanced number of clubs.
With respect to its developmental stage, each club may devise its own activity
plan, recruitment method, frequency of meetings and activity content. Each
club may also, according to its own needs, discuss with the CCAs Coordinator
how to institute the management of club membership (such as admission
standard, membership subscription and withdrawal), the establishment of
committee members, subscription fee etc..
( 5 ) PLANNING AND EXECUTING CCAs PROGRAMME :
Whether or not an activity can be run smoothly depends firstly on a
comprehensive plan. The plan includes distribution of work, time tabling,
budgeting and programmes. After completing the job of planning, it is
necessary to keep the students informed of the activity via proper channels.
There are several common ways, such as bulletins, posters, banners, public
113
announcements, newsletters and personal contacts. In the course of carrying
out an activity, attention and counselling should be given to the students as
appropriate.
( 6 ) ARRANGEMENT OF AN ENCOURAGING AWARDS SCHEME :
One of the important aspects in the implementation of CCAs is to make them
self-rewarding for the participants. To achieve this objective, students should
first of all be encouraged to take part in CCAs and to gain experience from
the process. Once students have been stimulated to try out the activities,
they should be further motivated to do so by various means. An awards
scheme is one of the best motivators.
According to the nature of each activity, awards can comprise praise,
certificates, merit points etc.
( 7 ) PROBLEM - SOLVING :
Problems seem to be inevitable in the course of carrying out an activity. If one
is equipped with problem-solving skills and ready with contingency plans, the
chance of a problem and any unexpected consequences is no doubt
minimized. In general, problems can be classified as due to poor students’
attitude, inadequate contacts, communication problems, and poor time
management. These problems could in fact be reduced, if not avoided, by
looking into the students’ needs, working out detailed plans and ensuring
close communication among all the parties involved, before planning an
activity. In the long run, CCAs should start a snowball effect by raising the
professionalism of advisors, increasing in-service training for teachers,
strengthening the support of both school and parents, and creating a
harmonious school climate. It is also the CCAs Adviser’s responsibility to
114
strike a proper balance, to ensure effective monitoring and to attend to needs
for counselling.
( 8 ) FEEDBACK, EVALUATION AND IMPROVEMENT :
It will not be possible to evaluate unless goals are established . Once set, the
success of each activity depends on the appreciation of its goals. It is
essential to know why a goal cannot be reached. If an activity is run within a
long period of time, one may use formative evaluation to examine the
planning and implementation of the activity quantitatively and qualitatively.
Quantitative measures include attendance records and activity records,
whereas qualitative measures include various kinds of feedback, like chatting
and observations.
Other measures, such as whether the plan is followed, participants’ responses
and a mid-year review can also be considered. There should be a summative
evaluation for each CCAs at the end of the school year. The target group
may include any of the following: participants, observers, planners, advisors
and non-participants. The purpose of the evaluation is to further improve the
activity in the long run. Any significant information about the conduct of an
activity may be retained in a data bank for CCAs; the keeping of such
information, will also facilitate long term planning.
( 9 ) RETENTION AND UTILISATION OF CCAs RECORDS :
Records must be kept for all activities to serve as future reference. The school
and college should also keep for each student an activity record, listing in
detail the activities the student has joined as well as his/her performance.
These records will be useful in writing student references and
recommendations. The CCAs Co-coordinator can thus make use of these
115
reports to assess the feasibility of new activities or to have his or her attention
drawn to areas requiring notice.
8.5. ROLE OF TEACHER IN CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
The teacher should have to perform multi-dimensional functions in organizing
and executing co-curricular activities. It is also the school and college,
which play pivotal role in conducting co-curricular activities. It is the teacher or
the school and college who finally should take the responsibility how
activities should proceed further.
The Teacher can be a planner, leader, innovator, director, organizer,
manager, recorder, advisor, motivator, communicator or coordinator.
While executing such activities, the teacher faced lots of difficulties. But he
should not discourage and completed the assignment after consultation with
seniors and college administrator.
The Teacher must be a good planner so that the different activities
could be carried out systematically throughout the year.
It should be the duty of the teacher to provide more and more
opportunity to the students while performing co curricular activities.
The Teacher should act as an innovator by introducing some
innovative programmes.
The Teacher must be a good organizer and manager so that the
students experienced maximum of it.
The Teacher should act like director and motivator and an advisor
so that the students can get the correct direction, motivation and an
advise to complete the activities.
The Teacher should act like evaluator and decision maker to that
116
students get ample chance to prove them the best with fair competitive
spirit,
The Teacher should be good communicator so that students feel
free to share problems and difficulties to complete the activities.
The Teacher should be good coordinator so that all participants
students as well as other Teacher in charge will cooperate to
complete the activities.
The Teacher should be good recorder keeper so that the student
could gained maximum of finer aspects of Co Curricular Activities.
8.6 MATTERS REQUIRING ATTENTION IN ORGANISING CCAs BY
TEACHERS :
( 1 ) DETAILED PLANNING :
Teachers should plan carefully when organising CCAs. They should let the
participants know about the nature and content of the activities. For activities
that are held outside school and college , teachers should be familiarized
with the details of the event, the route to the venue, the venue itself and the
safety facilities provided. In particular, they should prepare a contingency
plan with possibilities well anticipated.
( 2 ) NOTIFYING AND INFORMING PARENTS :
The school and college should inform parents of the details of organized
CCAs. Special attention should be paid to outdoor activities for which school
and college should ask in writing for the parental consent of the participants.
Letters to parents should state the date of the activity, time, venue and
teachers in- charge, etc.
Teachers must confirm the agreement of parents and collect the notes duly
117
signed indicating their consent. After the activity, these notes on parental
consent should be kept for a period of time for record purpose.
( 3 ) NOTIFYING AND INFORMING THE POLICE :
When organising outdoor activities for students, the school and college
should notify and inform the police in accordance with the guidelines issued
by the Education Bureau. This is a safety precaution that the school and
college must take to protect the students and the school and college itself
in the event of an accident. To facilitate teachers in their work, the school
and college may consider designing standard forms for reporting to the
police.
( 4 ) SAFETY MEASURES AND PRECAUTIONS :
The school and college should ensure that all CCAs are conducted safely.
For CCAs held in school and college, they school should arrange for
sufficient teachers to be on duty to invigilate the activity. Teachers-in-charge
should also make reference to the safety guidelines in special rooms and
laboratories to ensure that all facilities are safe for use. Facilities, equipment
and safety devices should be constantly checked to ensure proper working
conditions and to avoid accidents. Teachers-in-charge should also be
cautious in conducting outdoor activities and adhere to the “Guidelines on
Outdoor Activities” published by the Education Bureau. In the case of
activities requiring special attention, teachers should be reminded to follow
the safety measures closely.
( 5 ) HANDLING OF ACCIDENTS :
In the case of an accident, teachers-in-charge should take good care of the
victim to prevent further mishap. (For example, he/she must be sent to
118
hospital if injured). They should also notify the college and parents in the first
instance, report to them the condition of the student and what have been
done so far to relieve the parents from unnecessary worries. It is advisable
that teachers-in-charge should carry with them on outings (e.g. picnics,
residential camps, visits) a telephone list of parents (including office & home)
and teachers on duty for emergency use.
( 6 ) RESPONSIBILITY AND LEGAL PROBLEMS :
The school or college and teachers assume a parental role to take care of
their students, as a parent should normally do. The Education Bureau has
arranged for all Aided Educational Institutions ( i.e. school and college) a
Block Insurance Policy. For details of the Block Insurance Policy, In the case
of Government colleges, the responsibility will be borne by the Government.
8.7 EVALUATION OF CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES :
1. AIMS OF CCAs EVALUATION :
To ascertain the values of CCAs
To improve the quality and the implementation of CCAs
To examine the ability and achievement of the CCAs facilitators
To assess the attitude and contribution of the participants
2. SCOPE OF CCAs EVALUATION :
CCAs are part of the school curriculum and its planning includes research,
experimentation, innovation and evaluation. We may assess CCAs in three
aspects, namely, design, implementation and analysis.
3. ITEM OF CCAS EVALUATION :
( a ) DESIGN OF CCAs :
Purpose of the design
119
Educational objectives
Appropriateness of the activities
Effectiveness of the CCAs and its anticipated effects
Marketing of CCAs
( b ) IMPLEMENTATION OF CCAs :
Activity plans and programmes
Types of activities
Number of participants involved
Cost-effectiveness
Effectiveness of the programme/activity
( c ) ANALYSIS OF PERSONNEL INVOLVED :
Organizers’ analysis
Facilitators’ analysis
Advisors’ analysis
Participants’ analysis
Observers / Spectators’ analysis
Parents’ analysis
8.8 POINTS OF CONCERN IN EVALUATING CCAs :
In assessing the success and effectiveness of an CCAs, we need to consider
the objectives of the CCAs, the activity culture of the school, the ability of the
students, the capacity of the CCAs advisors and the availability of the
resources. There is no hard and fast rule for the evaluation. However, the
evaluation should comprise the following objectives
To provide a channel for feedback.
To make the personnel involved in CCAs realize the importance of the
120
CCAs improvement.
To improve the effectiveness of CCAs and its educational value.
To make the CCAs organizers and facilitators realize that they are the
leaders of the CCAs.
The evaluation results could gain support from school and college
management for future CCAs programmes.
