*Absolute grading

*Relative grading 

3rd hour was taken by Ancy ma'am. Physical science optional students presented discussion on National Policy Of Education and their Recommendations.

Wonderfully they presented the topic.

It has been a major step for our education sector. The policy that we were following before was the National Policy on Education (NPE) formulated by the Government of India to promote and regulate education in India. The policy covered elementary education to higher education in both rural and urban India. The first NPE was promulgated by the Government of India by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1968, the second by Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1986, and the third by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2020.

THE EDUCATION POLICIES

In 1968

The government of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi announced the first National Policy on Education in 1968, which called for a “radical restructuring” and proposed equal educational opportunities in order to achieve national integration and greater cultural and economic development. The policy called for fulfilling compulsory education for all children up to the age of 14, as stipulated by the Constitution of India and specialized training and qualification of teachers. The policy called for a focus on the learning of regional languages, outlining the “three-language formula” to be implemented in secondary education – the instruction of the English language, the official language of the state where the school was based, and Hindi. Language education was seen as essential to reduce the gulf between the intelligentsia and the masses. Although the decision to adopt Hindi as the national language had proven controversial, the policy called for the use and learning of Hindi to be encouraged uniformly to promote a common language for all Indians. The policy also encouraged the teaching of the ancient Sanskrit language, which was considered an essential part of India’s culture and heritage. The NPE of 1968 called for education spending to increase to six percent of the national income.

In 1986

The government led by Rajiv Gandhi introduced a new National Policy on Education. The main points of this policy was that, it was called for “special emphasis on the removal of disparities and to equalize educational opportunity,” especially for Indian women, Scheduled Tribes (ST) and the Scheduled Caste (SC) communities; to achieve such social integration, the policy called for expanding scholarships, adult education, recruiting more teachers from the SCs, incentives for poor families to send their children to school regularly, the development of new institutions, and providing housing and services. The NPE called for a “child-centred approach” in primary education and launched “Operation Blackboard” to improve primary schools nationwide; the policy expanded the open university system with the Indira Gandhi National Open University, which had been created in 1985; the policy also called for the creation of the “rural university” model, based on the philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi, to promote economic and social development at the grassroots level in rural India; 1986-education policy expected to spend 6% of GDP on education.

2020

In 2019, the Ministry of Human Resource Development released a Draft New Education Policy 2019, which was followed by a number of public consultations. The Draft NEP discusses reducing curriculum content to enhance essential learning, critical thinking and more holistic experiential, discussion-based and analysis-based learning. It also talks about a revision of the curriculum and pedagogical structure from a 10+2 system to a 5+3+3+4 system design in an effort to optimize learning for students based on the cognitive development of children.

On 29 July 2020, the cabinet approved a new National Education Policy with an aim to introduce several changes to the existing Indian education system.

RECENT EDUCATION POLICY 2020 BRIEF

Another major step taken in the History of India becoming a global superpower was awaited with the change in the Education Policy. In 2019, Modi Government released a draft which stated about changing the Education Policy. It was approved by the Union Cabinet at a meeting presided by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday, 29th July 2020. The new education system aims at bringing in transformation reforms in the education system of schools and higher education. Replacing the 34-year old education system is another major move in the direction of strengthening India as a global power. The new NEP also includes the renaming of the HRD Ministry back to the Education Ministry. Promoting the spirit of “Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat”, Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted, “Aspects such as widening the availability of scholarships, strengthening infrastructure for Open and Distance Learning, Online Education, and increasing the usage of technology have received great attention in the NEP. These are vital reforms for the education sector.”

Key Points-

~All higher education institutes excluding the medical and law colleges will be governed by a single regulator.

~MPhil courses will now be terminated.

~Board exams will now be more application and knowledge-based.

~Both the public and private higher education institutes will be governed under the same norms.

~To promote and give more emphasis on the regional language/mother-tongue, instruction medium up to class 5 will be in local/home languages.

~All entrance exams for higher education institutes and universities will be held commonly.

~School curriculum to focus more on core concepts.

~Vocational education will also be imparted from 6th grade onwards.

10+2 study cultures discontinue and new structure of 5+3+3+4 will be followed, subjecting to the respective age group of 3-8, 8-11, 11-14, and 14-18 years.

These were all the changes in detail that were proposed and introduced in the New Education Policy 2020

Second hour was taken by Shiney Miss. A beautiful prayer by Subin and a wonderful quote by Fathima is shared. Miss taught about Integrated Curriculum.


Integrated curriculum - It is based on both philosophy and practicality. It can generally be defined as a curriculum approch or curriculum that purposefully draws together, knowledge skills attitudes and values from within or across subject area to develop a more powerful understanding of key ideas. Curriculum indegration occurs when components of the curriculum are connected and related in meaningful ways by both the students and teachers.


Merits:

💜Allowing for flexibility: Because of integration of different key skills and allow the practical knowledge of application of each disciplines of subject. Building of prior knowledge and experiences. Choosing meaningful connections among subject areas which caters students to build their diverse prior knowledge and experiences that supports their holistic view of the world and ensures more meaningful learning.


💚Unifying the students: Learning integration enables students to develop a unified view of the curriculum, to broaden the context of learning beyond the single subject area.


💙 Refelcting the real world: That is, it organise the curriculum in a holistic way. That is it better reflects the real world. Matching the way what students think.It give due importance to the holistic approach rather than the fragmented peices, it better reflects how young students brain process information.

08/09/2021

 Today Shiney Miss took the first hour. Prayer was by me. A beautiful quote was shared by deepa

Today miss taught about

1. Subject Centered Curriculum: Focused on the course being taught. Each one separately from the other. This is the traditional method of teaching. Concentrates on one subject per class, period or block of time with little or no carry over into another subject. It stresses students mastery of a prescribed amount of material. This type of curriculum is more standard based and teacher focused.Textbook are commonly used for instruction and tests evaluates students learning and mastery.Material is primarily based on facts rather than on investigation. Students learn 'what is' rather than the reason behind the facts.


2.Activity Centered Curriculum: It is the modern approach in curriculum development. It is the reaction against the traditional curriculum which was subject centered or teacher dominated. It is purely child centered. Modern educationalist like John Dewey, Rousseau, Mahatma Gandhi, Pestalozzi are the proponents of the Activity Centered Curriculum. Subject matters presented through activities. Sublimations of instincts. Balanced development is possible through this curriculum. Learning by doing learning by living. Development of social skills. Social Virtues can be enhanced. Sustained motivation. Individual accontability

It is for preparation of life and co-operation through activity oriented curriculum. Develop positive attitudes.

Orientalist Education

Orientalism emerged in late 18th-century European centres of learning and their colonial outposts, when the study of thelanguages, literatures, religions, laws, and art of East Asian societies became a major focus of scholarly attention and intellectual energy

Orientalist are the group of people who are in support of giving education to indian people in indian language 


Anglicist Education

The British planned to educate a small section of upper and middle classes, thus creating a class "Indian in blood and colour but English in tastes, in opinions, in morals and in intellect"


The opinion that favored the introduction of western scientific knowledge in India came to be known as the Anglicize while the Orientals view was in favor of promoting and disseminating the traditional oriental learning. 


The Charter Act of 1813 incorporated the principle of encouraging learned Indians and promoting knowledge of modern sciences in the country. The Charter Act of 1813 directed the East India Company to sanction one lakh rupees annually for the purpose.

The English Education Act 1835 was a legislative Act of the Council of India, gave effect to a decision in 1835 by Lord William Bentinck, then Governor-General of the British East India Company, to reallocate funds it was required by the British Parliament to spend on education and literature in India.

The main resolutions of Bentinck policy are in the followings: English to become the medium of instruction in Indian education. A total ban in investment of any fund on printing of oriental works. Investment of all the funds for education in the improvement of English literature and science only.


In 1835 Lord Macaulay successfully westernised education in India; English was made the official language for the government and courts, and was adopted as the official medium of instruction.


Downward filtration theory is a theory introduced by Lord Macaulay in his so called report called Macaulay's Minutes, 



1. To educate only the high class people in order to give them higher posts in the administration with a view to strengthening the roots of British empire in the Country.


2. When the higher class people would receive English education their culture would be improved and the general public would accept them as their models. As a result, the lower class people would also be educated after being influenced by the higher class people.


3. To educate the higher class people who might undertake the responsibility of educating the general people.

Definition of curriculum by cunningham


" Curriculum is a tool in the hands of the artist (teacher) to mould his material (pupils) according to his ideals (aims and objectives) in his studio (school). The material is highly self-active and respond consciously"


Curriculum that takes into account the four pillars defined as the foundations of education in the Report to UNESCO of the International Commission on Education for the Twenty-first Century.

Namely: learning to know, learning to do, learning to live together, and learning to be.

Four pillars of curriculum

Learning to know - ability

 First hour was taken by Maya miss.

Today Maya miss shared some quotes by budha. Then miss taught about Budhism. Budhism can be considered as religion as well as philosophy. Budhism has a well defined founder and organized religion 

Second hour taken by Giby miss. Miss taught about methods/techniques to enhance memory.

How to Enhance Memory?


1) Whole verses Part - Divide the whole portion into parts. One part contain a single concept. children up-to twelve years of age showed better result with the ‘sectional method’ than with the ‘entire method’ except in memorizing those poems


Sometimes we need to give a whole outlook of the concept, then after divide it further. The ‘entire method’ has been found to be superior to the ‘sectional method’ in adults


2) Spaced verses unspaced - Learn different subject interchangedly. This helps brain to register the subjects easier. Take a break during studies. Spaced learning yields better result for permanent memory. Un-spaced learning is good for immediate memory. Continuous cramming may be helpful for immediate memory. But it cannot be useful for permanent memory. Spaced learning fixes the matter more durably.


3) Adistributed/Massive Verses Distributed

Give a break during study. Learning, Excercise, Recreation and Relaxation are doing interchangedly.


4) Association technique

Similar things are connected and learned this connectivity help to remember things.

Association Technique connects the items or ideas we want to remember to one visual theme.


5) Grouping technique

Chunking refers to the process of taking individual pieces of information and grouping them into larger units. By grouping each data point into a larger whole, you can improve the amount of information you can remember. Probably the most common example of chunking occurs in phone numbers

Group things to remember it

For example phone number 9 44 66 77 33 9

A mnemonic is a tool that helps us remember certain facts or large amounts of information. They can come in the form of a song, rhyme, acronym, image, phrase, or sentence. Mnemonics help us remember facts and are particularly useful when the order of things is important.


6) Rhythemic learning- Giving a particular rhythm. Using rhythmic and musical mnemonics in any classroom provides an attractive and innovative

alternative instructional and learning strategy.

“when two vowels go a walkin’, the first one does the talkin”

 

7) Recitation- Facts or Concepts that should be remebered are structured in the form of poem. Eg: "Thirty days hath September, April, June and November… "


8) Multisensory method: Multiple senses are used for learning. This enhance learning activity as well as memory.

Using multiple senses to process information can help with working memory and long-term memory.


9) Ordering or Sequencing: Ordering and sequencing makes thing easy to recollect.

The made-up name “Roy G. Biv” can help kids remember the order of the colors in the rainbow — red, orange, yellow, and so on.


10) Funnel approach- Vast topic area is simplified and learned without loosing its essence. Eg: UGC

A funnel is wide at the top, narrow at the bottom. It's an apt metaphor for an effective learning approach, that is, from general to specific.

The funnel approach helps students recall or retrieve information more effectively.

11) Acronyms: Acronyms are words made up of the first letters of other words. As a mnemonic device, acronyms help you remember the first letters of items in a list, which in turn helps you remember the list itself.

ഈ - ഇന്ദിരാഗാന്ധി

സോണിയക്ക് -സോണിയ ഗാന്ധി


All of the cranial bones: Old People From Texas Eat Sandwiches (Occipital, Parietal, Frontal, Temporal, Ethmoid, Sphenoid)


12)Visualisation Techniques: Visualization is particularly effective for memorizing systems, cycles and processes. Visualization allows you to create a vivid meaningful and memorable story that allows you to recall information.


13)Associating with places: Particular place is used to remember about something. Eg: When you see a zoo remember the features of Ex-situ conservation. When you see a National park remember the features of Insitu conservation.


What are the educational implications?

😊Develop will to learn

😀Adopt multisensory methods

😁Follow maxims of teaching

😁Repetition Overlearning Drill Excercise

😁Repetition and practice should enhance memory.

Forgetting: Failure in memorising things.

Inability to recall, remember, things


Third hour was taken by Joju Sir. Discussed about cognitive domain of blooms taxonomy.
