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.”

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.

 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.

Second hour was taken by Joju Sir. September 8 was Literacy Day. So sir mentioned its importance.
