Free Online Learning Videos - CBSE Class 10


Everyday a new online learning site pops up. Many are paid and some are free. When searching for CBSE class 10 online learning concept videos some things to look out for are

  • Audio and video clarity
  • Understandable Language 
  • 7 minutes duration or lesser
  • Teacher engagement
  • A knowledge tracker

A few of the online classes cater to specific entrance exams like IIT-JEE, NEET or NID. Brands like  Allen, Bansal, FIITJEE cater to JEE and Aakash and Brilliant for NEET. But these can be opted for once you decide your group in class 11. 

For Class 10, If you have not enrolled in any of the paid coaching classes, then you can look at some free alternatives to improve your understanding of concepts.

Byjus 

This is currently free for the duration of the pandemic. The advantages are
  • Sticks closely to NCERT / CBSE Curriculum
  • Animated Concept Videos
  • Enthusiastic Teachers
  • Live Classes 
  • A Learning path Tracker
  • Basic Testing
  • And a gamified testing model is also available.

You can try the paid version if you need Social Studies also.

Some of the issues with Byjus are
  • Long Videos, they don't teach to the point instead give you a lot of background. If you are a relatively smart person it can get boring too soon. Their Live classes are better and to the point.
  • Most teachers are good but sometimes they do have over enthusiastic or boring teachers.

Khan Academy

This is free and it can be used as a learning management tool as well. The advantages are
  • Extensive material available
  • Quality of the video lessons are really good
  • They have CBSE learning paths that stick pretty close to the curriculum.
  • They have board prep path that has shorter videos which are to the point.
  • The Learning Path tracker is really good.
  • The test questions are geared towards deeper understanding.
  • The have content for K-12, so you can stick with it for your entire schooling.
The disadvantages are
  • Language may be a barrier for students struggling with english, they have launched a hindi version as well so that might be of some help.
  • Videos may be a bit long in the usual track, board prep videos are shorter and to the point
  • The questions may not prepare you for Class 10 board type answers.
  • Social studies not available

Century Learning

This is free for the duration of school closures for COVID. 
  • This is a really good platform for strong concept understanding. 
  • The outstanding feature is their testing methodology. 
  • You can take away a very clear and deep understanding of a concept and build on it step by step. 

It may not be aligned to CBSE curriculum but it is very good for concept building. Give the free version a shot and you will see how different this is from the rest.

You have to see a few videos in each to figure out which style suits you the best. Then stick to it. The idea should be to get the maximum understanding from minimum material in the least amount of time. So choose wisely.

Sick Leave Policies @ SBOA

Amazon.in Widgets Both my Dear Kids are down with a viral fever. Just the third day into a new academic year and panic strikes! Apart from catching up on all that they missed at school, the looming concern for the kids is what the teacher will say..... Mostly teachers are quite understanding if the kids and their parents follow the leave policies. If sick and absent from school for 1 or 2 days a letter from the parent should suffice. For 3 days and more, a medical certificate from a qualified doctor is required. Taking leave for purposes other than health concerns, will have to be intimated before hand. What SBOA does quarterly, is that they communicate to the parent if the attendance percentage is lower than expected and you are supposed to make it up in the coming term. This feedback keeps you on track. Falling sick happens, taking leave for miscellaneous stuff also happens, however, as parents if we stick to the leave policies, we could definitely help our kids not f...

LKG Admissions @ SBOA School and Junior College 2012 - 2013

I'm putting my second child in SBOA this year, and the first round of admissions are in progress. My! the fees have gone up this year, but looking at the other schools, including Matric schools, SBOA has managed to keep the fees lower than the city average. The admission process was smooth and quick. We finished meeting the Principal in about 30mins from the time we got there. All that's left is, to pay the fees and start the joining formalities. I'm glad that my kid got in, as I already have another child studying in 1st Std in SBOA. She enjoys going to school. At 50 kids a class, it is a crowd but their systematic way of doing things more than makes up for it. Good luck to all those applying for admissions @ SBOA this year.   For more info check at the below site http://www.sboajc.org/admission.html Photo courtesy Stuart Miles @ freedigitalimages.net
