Teaching learning
material for primary classes
Number of programs
across the country such as DPEP, SSA, NPEGEL have been implemented towards
universalization of elementary education. As a result , since past one decade
there has been significant improvement in the enrollement and retention of
children at the primary level. However, despite sincere and dedicated efforts
at various levels to imporved quality in education, there is a long way to go.
When one thinks of usual primary classes, the picture of any teacher centic
classrooms that comes to one’s mind is as under:
Teacher dominates
the classroom all the time, with no allowance for children to learn of develop
on their own.It is assumed that all children will learn the same thing at the
same time and in the same manner.The problems of multi-grade and multi-level
nature of classroom are not addressed.TLMs are rarely used by children as a
normal practice.Most of the materials used are not prepared for
self-learning.There is no opportunity for the child to learn the lessons missed
during his/her absence from class.Evaluation methods are mostly summative and
test only the rote learning by children.
