Learning by doing…


Learning by doing…

Always we hear about this term, but when we experience it, the multidisciplinary action which comes in a single activity can be observed. When we analyze, everything which we know is only learned by doing.  Learning by doing will enable us to understand the nature and the kind of life and surrounding we have.

Understanding of the concepts of mathematics really was a very wonderful session. But one thing which struck my mind is that, when an assessment is done and the result is been got that there should be changes in the teaching, how the teacher will improve himself/ herself. Is it that the portions ahead will be taught in an improved way or the taught one will be re-visited?

  1. learning by doing is a fascinating word in today's era but teachers are having some problems. As they don't have resources to meet their need in the class room and for each topic it can not be possible to provide them hands on experience.

How amusing can a crow nest be!

A bird which is ignored, disregarded as filthy and most of the time perceived to be having no qualities to be called 'beautiful'. Hence, what is worth about its nest!! I got to observe a crow-couple and their friends setting up a place for themselves for their short 'fruitful' family time.  This nest at our home is built on a lemon tree (not sure if technically it's a tree or a shrub). The nest is rather too shabby. I thought they are doing a poor job if it. Later observed, they are actually building a fortress. Meticulously planned to wave off any threats. A lemon plant naturally has thorns and hence any external interference should be low. But, the crow-couple had other ideas to up the game of security. They had gathered more thorny twigs and laid all over the plant. So many, if not hundreds of these twigs have been laid around the nest. I wonder, why would a crow do this. I assume it is done so that no other animals can easily approach the nest thwarting their pl...

An Inspired Teacher.

Thursday, 19 July 2012 An Inspired Teacher. Julia Weber, a single-teacher school teacher in the United States. She proved that inspiration and enthusiasm of a single teacher can make huge differences. Having the best infrastructure does not mean q uality in education. A teacher who is continuously innovating, reflecting and acting plays a key role in achieving quality education.  Using locally available resources is very important and effective in teaching. If the local community is thoughtfully involved in the schooling processes, most resources needed for learning can be easily organized. Currently, in most schools, irrespective of the management, the community is kept either out or they are only involved in a unproductive manner. Most places the community is not aware of what is happening in the schools. The schools are seen as building where something is taught, and this ‘something‘ is not known by the community. The idea of peer group learning is an effective way...
