Impact of the Implementation of Evaluation Model Centered on a Strong Interdisciplinary Approach in CBA (Competence-Based Approach): Case of Secondary School in the Francophone Sub-section in Cameroon

Abstract

The aim of the present study was to highlight the impact of the interdisciplinary evaluation approach on the different actors around the ten schools selected all over the country for the experimentation of the concept. For that purpose, field and laboratory works were carried out. Many results were then collected. For all the 200 heads of Pedagogical Departments interviewed, this approach is the key that opens the way to permanent collaboration between the Pedagogical Departments of the same academic institution. All the 500 students interviewed up have noticed through this approach that all subjects are important despite some nuances noted within the comments of some. The heads of the ten establishments targeted across the country for this work have unanimously expressed positive judgments about this way of proceeding in an evaluation situation. In all ten Regions, seventy out of the hundred target families showed their enthusiasm directly after discovering the new configuration of evaluations in the institutions attended by their children. For the future, after two years, the approach should be applicable to the entire lower secondary cycle.
