“Shiksha Sadan ”, 17, Rouse Avenue, New Delhi-110 002 ACAD/CBSE/EO(C)/2012 Circular No. Acad-9/2012 2nd May, 2012 All the Heads of the CBSE affiliated schools Subject: Guidelines for Project Work in Business Studies for Classes XI and XII w.e.f. the academic session 2012-13 and the Board Examination 2013. Dear Principal, Kindly refer to the Business Studies syllabus for Classes XI and XII pertaining to the Board Examination year 2013 which provides for Project Work of 10 marks in both the classes at senior school level. The Board has brought out Guidelines for Project Work for perusal of the Business Studies teachers. Kindly bring these to the notice of concerned teachers and students. The teachers are requested to ensure that the project work assigned to the students whether individually or in group are discussed at different stages right from assignment to drafts review and finalization. Students should be facilitated in terms of providing relevant materials or suggesting websites, or obtaining required permissions from business houses, malls etc for their project. The 16 periods assigned to the Project Work should be suitably spaced throughout the academic session. The teachers MUST ensure that the students actually go through the rigors and enjoy the process of doing the project rather than depending on any readymade material available outside. The revised Sample Question Papers (Theory) in Business Studies for Class XII will soon be uploaded on the CBSE website. Kindly bring these to the notice of concerned teachers and students. Yours sincerely N. Nagaraju Director (Academic) Encl.: Guidelines for Project work in Business Studies, Classes XI
