and also through the implementation of schemes and programmes aimed at the continuing professional development of school teachers and teacher educators.

The Regional Institutes of Education (RIEs) at Ajmer, Bhopal, Bhubaneshwar, Mysore and Shillong as constituent units of NCERT, are also responsible for preparing teachers for schools and teacher education institutions.
The Teacher Education Programmes offered in the RIEs have the recognition of the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), which is the statutory body responsible for regulating Teacher Education in the country.

Thus, the RIEs follow the NCTE Regulations including stipulations concerning Teacher Education Curriculum.

The Justice Verma Commission (JVC) appointed by the Government of India at the behest of the Hon‘ble Supreme Court of India, submitted its report in 2012.
The Commission made several recommendations for revamping the system of teacher education in the country, such as introducing integrated teacher education programmes of longer duration, enhancing the duration of existing teacher education programmes and upgrading the status of teacher education by making the entire system as part of higher education.
To translate the vision of JVC into reality, the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) revisited its regulations, norms and standards for various teacher education programmes and notified new Regulations on 1st December, 2014.

As per the Regulations the duration of the B.Ed.

and M.Ed.

programmes has been enhanced from one year to two years.

The NCERT had introduced the B.Ed.


Programme of two years‘ duration in the year 1999 in its four RIEs in pursuance of the recommendations of the NCTE Curriculum Framework of 1998.

The programme has been in operation for more than 15 years.

As such the RIEs have already gained enough experience in the implementation of a programme of longer duration.
In the light of the NCTE Regulations, 2014, the NCERT decided to revisit the curriculum followed in the RIEs for which it set up a Committee comprising the faculty of RIEs and various departments of NIE and eminent teacher educators.

The Department of Teacher Education at the NIE, NCERT New Delhi was entrusted the responsibility to coordinate of the development of the Curriculum and syllabi of the programme.

I appreciate the efforts made by Prof. B.P.


Bhardwarj, experts and the faculty in this endevaour of Curriculum renewal.

The NCERT shall welcome suggestion of the B.Ed.

programme for further improvement in the Curriculum and Syllabi.

H. K. Senapaty Director, NCERT New Delhi iv PREFACE The NCERT was the first organization in the country to introduce two year B.Ed.

programme in 1999 in its four Regional Institutes of Education (RIEs).

This programme has been in operation for the last fifteen years.
The curriculum and syllabi designed by NCERT are approved by universities, to which the RIEs are affiliated.

NCERT has now revisited the existing curriculum and syllabi in the light of stipulations of the NCTE Regulations, 2014.

As visualized in the Regulations, the curriculum has been organized in three broad categories, namely (i) Perspectives in Education (ii) Curriculum and Pedagogic Studies and (iii) Engagement with the Field.
In the revised syllabi the courses titled ‗Health, Yoga and Physical Education, Gender School and Society and Creating an Inclusive School‘, have been assigned a prominent place in the course structure by making them compulsory core courses as part of the first component, that is, ‗Perspectives in Education‘.

The component ‗Engagement with the Field‘ includes both school internship and Enhancing Professional Capabilities courses (EPC).
Recognizing the importance and need of using ICT as a pedagogical tool (Understanding ICT and Its Application), it has been included in the curriculum of first semester.

In addition, there are three other EPC courses namely, Arts in Education, ‗Reading and Reflecting on Texts‘ and ‗Understanding the Self‘.
All these courses have a strong component of practicum and are expected to enhance the competencies of teachers they need for working as professionals i.e., working as reflective practitioners, researchers and generators of knowledge in the field of education and pedagogy.

I express my gratitude to Prof. H. K. Senapaty, Director, NCERT and Prof. B. K. Tripathi, Joint Director, NCERT for their guidance and support in the completion of the task.
I am also grateful to the Syllabus Revision and Development Team, other faculty members of the NCERT and RIEs for their whole hearted involvement in the programme.

I am specially thankful to the external experts Prof. G. L. Arora, Prof.

I. K. Bansal, Prof. K.M.

Gupta, Dr. Vivek Kholi, Prof. Sunil Kumar Singh and Prof. Saroj Pandey for their contribution in the task of curriculum renewal.
This revised syllabus is basically meant for RIEs of NCERT but could also be adopted for other Universities/Institutions which offer two year B.Ed programmes.

Coordinator v Introduction 1.0 Background The Curriculum Frameworks for school education published by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) in 1975, 1988, 2000 and 2005 have played an important role in the development of school education in the country, especially with regard to School Curriculum and its transaction in the classrooms.
The latest framework in the series, i.e., the National Curriculum Framework 2005 (NCF 2005) articulated the need for connecting knowledge to life outside the school, understanding about construction of knowledge, facilitating learner in knowledge construction, creating a fear free atmosphere, addressing diversity and inclusion, equity and quality.
In spite of its widespread acceptance, the situation in majority of classrooms has not changed much as majority of teachers found it difficult to translate the ideas mentioned above into classroom practices.

Teaching in the schools has remained confined to the objective of covering the syllabus as per the textbook.

Classroom discussion is more on what teacher feels convenient to teach rather than the needs, aptitudes and interests of children.
Teaching-learning process is more inclined towards one-way passing of information and students are treated as more recipients of information.

The construction of knowledge and child as a critical learner, etc emphasized in the framework is, by and large, missing even today.

The teacher has to deal with classrooms of multilingual character with children from diverse socio-cultural, economic and linguistic background and varying levels of cognitive abilities.
The aspiration levels of the students have changed considerably under the overarching influences of technological revolution and globalization.

In this context, the teacher needs to understand that learners have to be provided with opportunities to share, discover and participate actively in the learning process.
He/she should understand the process of learning or how learning occurs, create suitable or conducive environment for learning, be able to provide varied opportunities for the students to observe, experiment, reflect, and question.

At the same time he/she should be aware that students learn in different ways at their own pace.

Hence, the need to provide varied activities according to the style and pace of the students‘ learning is now well recognised.
In order to respond to the demands of changing school curricula, the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) has brought out Teacher Education Curriculum Frameworks from time to time.
The latest curriculum framework, NCFTE-2009 tried to in teacher education programmes by address mismatch of theory and practical incorporating the socio-cultural contexts of education, giving more emphasis on the field experience of student teachers in all courses through practicum, visits to innovative centers of pedagogy and learning, classroom based research, and internship of longer duration.
Our classrooms are becoming more and more diverse and at the same time teachers are expected to ensure inclusiveness in a classroom where learning needs of every student are met.

There is a dire need to create an inclusive environment for meeting the needs of 1 diverse learners for which teachers need to be prepared during the course of teacher education programmes.
2.0 Justice Verma Commission - 2012 The Justice Verma Commission (JVC) appointed by the Government of India at the behest of the Hon‘ble Supreme Court of India, submitted its report in 2012.
The Commission made several recommendations for revamping the system of teacher education in the country, such as introducing integrated teacher education programmes of longer duration, enhancing the duration of existing teacher education programmes and upgrading the status of teacher education by making the entire system as part of higher education.
The Commission also recommended to establish inter-university centers of teacher education to ensure continuing professional development of teacher educators, re-orientation of teacher education curriculum to enhance the quality of teacher preparation, strengthen the regulatory and monitoring mechanisms and establishment of performance appraisal system for teacher education institutions, teacher educators and school teachers.
Thus, the Commission presented a holistic vision of teacher education in the country from the perspective of quality as well as regulation.

3.0 NCTE Regulations, 2014 To reorient the system of teacher education in accordance with the vision of JVC, the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) revisited its regulations and norms and standards for various teacher education programmes and notified new Regulations on 1st December, 2014.

As per the Regulations the duration of the B.Ed.

and M.Ed.
and M.Ed.

programmes has been enhanced from one year to two years, and the integrated B.A.

/ B Sc.

B.Ed.

programme has been made a mainstream programme of teacher education, It has also introduced integrated B.Ed.

- M.Ed.

programme of three years duration, discontinued M.Ed.

(ODL) programme and restricted the B.Ed.

(ODL) programme to only those teachers who have already acquired some NCTE recognised teacher education qualification through face to face mode.
The NCTE Regulations, 2014 envisage that the curriculum of various teacher education programmes should comprise the following: in education, (i) Perspectives in Education Perspectives in Education should include courses in the study of childhood‘ child development and adolescence‘ contemporary India and education‘ philosophical and sociological perspectives theoretical foundations of knowledge and curriculum, learning and teaching, gender in the context of school and society, creating an inclusive school, and health yoga and physical education.
The course in childhood studies shall enable student-teachers to engage with studies on Indian society and education, acquire conceptual tools of sociological analysis and hands-on experience of engaging with diverse communities, children and schools.
The course on ― ‗Contemporary India and Education‘ shall develop a conceptual understanding about issues of diversity, inequality 2 and marginalization in Indian society and the implications of education, with analysis of significant policy debates in Indian Education.

The course on ‗Knowledge and Curriculum‘ will address the theoretical foundations of school knowledge from historical, philosophical and sociological perspectives, policy and learning.
The course on ‗learning and teaching‘ will focus on aspects of social and emotional development, self and identity, and cognition and learning.

(ii) Curriculum and Pedagogic Studies Courses in Curriculum and Pedagogic studies shall include aspects of language across the curriculum and communication, understanding of a discipline, social history of a school subject, and its pedagogical foundations, with a focus on the learner; and a course on the theoretical perspectives on assessment for learning.
Curriculum and Pedagogical Studies courses shall offer a study of the nature of a particular discipline, critical understanding of the school curriculum; pedagogy as the integration of knowledge about the learner, the discipline and the social context of learning, and research relating to different aspects of young children‘s learning.

Each Course is visualised in two parts, which are to be conducted in two successive semesters.
The Units are organised in a form indicating the continuity and sequence in which they are to be dealt with.

Each institute will decide CPS2 and CPS3 courses as per the requirements of the university.
CPS2 and CPS3: Subject Knowledge and the Related Pedagogic Dimension : Part I and Part II These courses shall enable student-teachers to recognise the nature of knowledge in various subject areas (Science-Biological/ Physical/Mathematics/Social Science/ Languages–Hindi /English /Urdu /other region-specific languages), and pursue efforts to keep themselves abreast with advancements in their areas of specialisation.

A student-teacher will take up two subject areas of his/her choice.
In view of the requirement of hands - on experiences, each of the courses is visualised in two Parts to be spread over two semesters.

Part I will help in developing understanding of and competence to render disciplinary knowledge into forms relevant to stage specific objectives and their pedagogic requirements.
Part II will provide comprehensive understanding of the teaching learning situations gained through intensive study of conceptual explanations, observations and analysis of real life classroom situations.

A variety of investigative projects shall be included to reconstruct concepts from subject knowledge through appropriate pedagogic processes and to communicate meaningfully with children.

(iii) Engagement with the Field/Practicum The B.Ed.
Programme shall provide sustained engagement with the Self, the Child, the Community and the School at different levels and by establishing close connections between different curricular areas.
These curricular areas would serve as an important link between the above two broad curricular areas through its following three components: (a) Tasks and Assignments that run through all the courses (b) School Internship 3 (c) Courses on Enhancing Professional Capacities The curricular areas of ‗Perspectives in Education‘ and ‗Curriculum and Pedagogic Studies‘ shall offer field engagement through different tasks and projects with the community, the school, and the child in school and out-of-school.
These tasks and projects would help in substantiating perspectives and theoretical frameworks studied in a teacher education classroom with field-based experiences.

The tasks and projects may include collaborative partnership with schools for developing CCE practices, establishing study circles for professional development of in-service school teachers, or dialoguing with the School Management Committee, etc.
Community-based engagement may include oral history projects and dialogue with a community of artisans etc as part of ‗Contemporary India and Education‘ or ‗Pedagogy of Social Science/History‘.

These courses shall offer opportunities to study issues of identity, interpersonal relations, adult-child gaps, personal and social constructs, schools as sites for struggle and social change; understand and practise yoga education, develop social sensitivity and capacity to listen and empathise.
School Internship would be a part of the broad curricular area of ‗Engagement with the Field‘ and shall be designed to lead to development of a broad repertoire of perspectives, professional capacities, teacher sensibilities and skills.

The curriculum of B.Ed.

provides for sustained engagement with learners and the school (including engaging in continuous and comprehensive assessment for learning), thereby creating a synergy with schools in the neighbourhood throughout the year.
Student-teachers shall be equipped to cater to diverse needs of learners in schools.

These activities shall be organised for 4 weeks in the first year of the course.

In the final year of the course students are to be actively engaged in teaching for 16 weeks.

They shall be engaged at two levels, namely upper primary (classes vi-viii) and secondary (ix-x), or senior secondary, with at least 16 weeks in schools with systematic supervisory support and feedback from faculty.
The internship shall be organised in both Government and Non-Government Schools located in Urban and Rural Areas.

Thus internships in schools will be for a minimum duration of 20 weeks for a two- year programme, 4 weeks in first year and 16 weeks in the second year.
This should also include, besides practice teaching, an initial phase of one week for observing a regular classroom with a regular teacher and would also include peer observations, teacher observations and faculty observations of practice lessons.

After the publication of NCTE Regulations 2014, the NCTE circulated a curriculum framework for the B.Ed.

programme which further elaborated the curriculum component of 4 the Regulations.
However the framework is suggestive in nature and is meant for providing professional support to the institutions responsible for curriculum development.

4.0 NCERT Initiatives for the Development of Teacher Education Curriculum The curriculum framework for teacher education published by NCTE in 1998 had for the first time recommended to enhance the duration of B.Ed.

programme from one year to two years.


The NCERT was the first organization in the country to implement the recommendation by introducing two year B.Ed.

programme in 1999 in its four Regional Institutes of Education (RIEs).

The Programme has been in operation for the last fifteen years.

The curriculum and syllabi designed by NCERT are approved by universities, to which the RIEs are affiliated.
The NCERT has now revisited the existing curriculum and syllabi in the light of stipulations of the NCTE Regulations 2014.

As visualized in the Regulations, the curriculum has been organized in three broad categories, namely (i) Perspectives in Education (ii) Curriculum and Pedagogic Studies and (iii) Engagement with the Field.
In the revised Curriculum the courses titled ‗Health, Yoga and Physical Education, Gender School and Society and Creating an Inclusive School‘, have been assigned a prominent place in the course structure by making them compulsory core courses as part of the first component, that is, ‗Perspectives in Education‘.

The component ‗Engagement with the Field‘ includes both school internship and professional competencies enhancing courses (EPC).
Recognizing the importance and need of using ICT as a pedagogical tool,‘ the course titled ‗Understanding ICT and Its Application‘, has been included in the curriculum of first semester.

In addition, there are three other EPC courses namely, ―Arts in Education‖, ‖Reading and Reflecting on Texts‘ and ‗Understanding the Self‘.
All these courses have a strong component of ―Practicum‖ and are expected to enhance the competencies of teachers they need for working as professionals i.e., working as reflective practitioners, researchers and generators of knowledge in the field of education and pedagogy.

In order to provide field experience of longer duration to the student teachers, the duration of school internship shall be twenty weeks.
The students shall be provided exposure to the school system in the first two semesters in the local schools, that is, in the cities where RIEs are located.

In the third semester, the student teachers shall be required to work as regular full time teachers for sixteen weeks in their respective states.

The internship shall be organized in both Government and Government aided schools located in urban and rural areas.
After the completion of internship, the student teachers shall be required to consolidate and reflect on their experiences and share the same with their peers and teachers.

The course structure and semester wise distribution of courses along with time required for their transaction and the total marks, internal assessment marks and external marks assigned to each course are given in the next section.

21 PE 4: Gender, School and Society Total Marks: 50 Contact hours: 3 hours per week Internal Assessment: 15 External Assessment: 35 Introduction Gender is a social construct that impacts attitudes, roles, responsibilities and behavior patterns of boys and girls, men and women in all societies.
Gender relations vary from society to society.

Gender determines power relations in multicultural societies like India.

It deals with human concerns encompassing diversities and differences.

It has been the most visible form of discrimination operating across cultures in developing societies.

When one analyses the present context of gender discourse, the prime concern is how gender functions as a determinant of construction of knowledge in different disciplines.
Education has the inbuilt potential of formulating interlinkages between gender and education.

Discourses on gender and education require critical engagements with the deep questions on the nature of socialization.

It needs to reflect and focus on transforming attitudes, beliefs and behavioral patterns that impact gender relation in family, community, school and work place and so on.
In order to eliminate the hierarchies on such social constructions, gender debates and discourses have to be operationalised within the overarching concern for democratic education.

This course is crucial for addressing gender bias and stereotypes that operate in all social spaces in textual materials and print media accessed by students and other stakeholders.

It would make the teachers reflect on her /his socialization and analyze critically the processes that shape masculinity and feminity.
Further, it is hoped that teachers as agents of change would encourage students to reflect on their socialization and critique all those practices that perpetuate stereotypes and biases.

Objectives The course will enable the student teachers to -  develop basic understanding and familiarity with key concepts-gender, gender bias, gender stereotype, empowerment, gender parity, equity and equality, patriarchy and feminism and transgender.
 know about policies, plans and schemes of the government for addressing all forms of disparities and inequalities existing in the society  learn about gender issues in school, curriculum, textual materials across disciplines, pedagogical processes and its intersection with class, caste, religion and region; and 22  understand the need to address gender based violence in all social spaces and evolve strategies for addressing it.

29 PE 6: Creating an Inclusive School Total Marks: 50 Contact Hours: 3 Hours per Week Internal Assessment: 15 External Assessment: 35 Introduction The diversity in the society is a fact and the reflection of it in the school is natural.

Traditionally these diversities were considered as inability of the individual to be able to meet the requirement of the school/classroom.

Now diversities are considered as imposed by the hurdles created by the society.
Similarly the difficulties of students to learn in the classroom are due to the expectation of the system, architecture of the building and classroom, design of teaching and many other related factors.

The philosophy underlying this course is that every student is unique and each one has the potentiality to learn.

The management of individual difference is a social responsibility which a school has to accept.
Creating a learning environment to provide opportunity to participate fully in the process of learning is the task for a teacher.

This is a short course with an intention to develop a thought in the teacher which results in accepting ‗all‘ children in the class as his/her responsibility.

This is a small beginning to a teacher towards a major change in the system and society.
With this course it is expected that the teacher will reflect on the student who is ‗deviant‘ in the class as ‗different‘ who needs the input and attention like other students.
Include case studies and interactions with eminent speaker, group discussions, book reviews, self-learning, ICT based teaching learning, visits to various schools (special, integrated and inclusive) and institutions (national and regional centers), viewing relevant documentaries and films, critical analysis and reflections Objectives The course will enable the student teachers to –  Understand the meaning and significance of Inclusive education  Gain knowledge on Policy and legislative frameworks promoting inclusion  Learn to create inclusive classrooms using inclusive pedagogy – (teaching strategies, CCE)  Understand the linkages and collaborations for resource mobilization.
Unit 1: Understanding Inclusion in Education  History of inclusion –paradigm shift from segregation to inclusion  Policy perspective: Initiatives to promote inclusive education 30 o International Focus: Salamanca 1994, UNCRPD, EFA (MDG) o National Focus: Constitutional obligations for education of diverse groups, NPE, 1986-92, PWD Act 1995, National Policy for PWD, 2006, revised PWD Bill 2012, RCI Act, NCF 2005 and NFG paper, SSA, RMSA, National Commission on Minority Education (NCMEI), National Commission for Education of SC, ST Institutions o Educational concessions, facilities and provisions.
Unit 2: Understanding physical, psychological and social cultural diversity  Diversity due to disability (Nature, Characteristic and Needs) o Special needs of children with sensory disabilities, o Special needs of children with cognitive disabilities o Special needs of children with physical disabilities o Girls with disabilities- Issues, Challenges, and Supportive Programmes  Diversity due to socio- cultural and economic factors o Discrimination, language attitudes, violence and abuse.

This subject area adopts a holistic definition of health within which physical education and yoga contribute to the physical, social, emotional and mental aspects of a child's development.

Given the multi-dimensional nature of health, there are many opportunities for cross curricular learning and integration in other subject areas like science, social science and languages also.
The subject has to focus on applied learning and therefore, innovative approaches need to be adopted for transaction of this area.

The organisation of activities under this area should ensure a wide range of activities, so that each and every student and teacher can participate in them according to his/her interest and need.

The syllabus, therefore, should focus on "what as a students, teacher I should learn and what should I expected that the children should learn and practice".
This area, therefore, should focus on acquisition of habits of healthy living and participation in games, sports and athletics for maintenance of fitness.

36 Section B Curriculum and Pedagogic Studies CPS 1: Language across the Curriculum CPS 2&3: Pedagogy of two School Subjects (Part I &II)  Social Sciences  Biological Science  Physical Science  Mathematics  English  Urdu  Sanskrit  Hindi CPS 4: Assessment for Learning CPS1: Language Across the Curriculum Total Marks: 50 Internal Assessment: 15 External Assessment: 35 Introduction Contact hours: 3 Hours per week The role of languages across the curriculum is being increasingly recognized, it would be important for all teachers to understand the importance of language across the curriculum and evolve strategies that will help share the responsibility for the development of learners and the development of languages.
We need to understand that language education is not confined to the language classroom.

A science, social science or mathematics class is ipso facto a language class.

Learning the subject means learning the terminology, understanding the concepts, and being able to discuss and write about them critically.

Language is the medium for comprehending ideas, for reflection and thinking, as well as for expression and communication.
Enhancing one's faculty in the language of instruction is thus a vital need of student-teachers, irrespective of the subject areas that they are going to teach.

In India, language and literacy are generally seen as the concern of only the language teachers.

However, no matter what the subject, teaching cannot take place in a language-free environment.
Assumptions about the language and literacy background of students influence classroom interactions, pedagogical decisions and the nature of students' learning.

It is important to understand the language background of the students and know how oral and written language can be used in the classroom to ensure optimal learning of the subject area.

Languages across the curriculum will foster a genuine multilingualism in the classrooms.
This course is visualized to develop understanding about the nature and importance of classroom discourse; developing reading for information.

This will strengthen the ability to 'read', 'think', 'discuss and communicate' as well as 'write' in the language of content.

All possible efforts should be made to build networks across different subjects and language in order to enhance levels of language proficiency.
Therefore, student-teachers will need to be familiar with theoretical issues, and to develop competence in analysing current school practices and coming up with appropriate alternatives.

The focus is to create sensitivity to the language diversity that exists in the classrooms.

Understanding the language background of students, as first or second language users of the language used in teaching the subject.
The focus is to help students- teachers understand the nature of classroom discourse and develop strategies for using oral language in the classroom in a manner that promotes learning in the subject area.

The focus is to develop critical reading comprehension in the content areas informational reading and developing writing in specific content areas with familiarity of different registers.

37 Objectives The course will enable the student teachers to-  understand the language background of students.
 understand the nature of classroom discourse.

 understand the nature and need of informational reading.

 understand and analyse content areas and write.

 understand the importance and role of language for content areas.

Unit 1: Language Background of Students Understanding multilingualism in the classroom; home language and school language; power dynamics of the 'standard' language as the school language vs. home language or 'dialects'; (Deficit theory (Eller, 1989); Discontinuity theory).
(The focus is to create sensitivity to the language diversity that exists in the classrooms.

Understanding the language background of students, as first or second language users of the language used in teaching the subject.)

Unit 2: Nature of Classroom Discourse Classroom Discourse — oral language; discussion as a tool for learning; the nature of questioning in the classroom — types of questions and teacher's role.
(The focus is to help students-teachers understand the nature of classroom discourse and develop strategies for using oral language in the classroom in a manner that promotes learning in the subject area.)
Unit 3: Informational Reading and Writing Reading in the content areas — social sciences, science, mathematics; nature of expository texts vs. narrative texts; transactional vs. reflexive texts; schema theory; text structures; examining content area textbooks; reading strategies — note-making, summarizing; making reading-writing connections; process writing; analyzing students' writings to understand their conceptions; writing with a sense of purpose — writing to learn and understand.
(The focus is to develop critical reading comprehension in the content areas informational reading and developing writing in specific content areas with familiarity of different registers.)

Practicum  Discussion on role and importance of home language and school language 38  Discussion on role and importance of dialect and standard language.

 Interview some technical people and find out which language do this prefer to use?

And why?
And why?

 What are the gaps in learning in a particular language and using local language for work.

 As a student you must have felt that sometimes the language of instruction did not help in understanding of the text.

Keeping that in view how will you facilitate your students to understand the content.

 Prepare a set of questions on diversity of languages and connect it with classroom discourse.

 Comprehending and analysing the texts.


 Re-telling the text - in one's own language from different points of view.

 Narrating / describing a related account from one's life experience.

 Discussion of related topics and issues - sharing interpretations and points of view.

 Writing — based on the text, e.g.

summary of the text, extrapolation of story, converting a situation into a dialogue, etc.

 Preparing questions that develop critical thinking and problem solving leading to discussion.
 Choose a few words from different text of content areas and give examples how similar word / language used in different context for convey the meaning.

 Ask the students to describe a scientific/mathematical/environmental concept in their language and then in the language that they are learning in school.
 Using reading strategies, such as scanning, skimming and reading for extracting information - as appropriate for initial reading of articles (guided individual task)  Analysis of structure of the article, identifying sub-headings, key words, sequencing of ideas, use of concrete details, illustrations and / or statistical representations, etc.
(guided working in pairs)  Critical reading for attending 'framing' of the article, point(s) of view presented, possible biases or slants (small group discussion)  Researching and writing articles/reports on topics related to content areas and current issues.

 Take different types of texts from content areas.

Analyse the language and develop a thematic lesson design.

 Use texts from content areas in the language classroom to develop reading comprehension and reading strategies.
 Give writing tasks across the curriculum such as describing an experiment, writing analysis of a mathematical problem, describing about plants and their functions, geographical phenomena etc.

to understand their concept clarity.

 On the basis of class discussions and learners‘ written work do an action research to find out in which language they are able to express better in content areas.

What strategies can you use to help learners develop the school language?
39 CPS: Pedagogy of Social Sciences Introduction This course in the teaching of social sciences introduces student-teachers to matters of both content and pedagogy.

Some emphasis on content seems necessary in view of the fact that many student teachers may not be having sufficient exposure to four major disciplines of social sciences.

In fact, the pedagogy of a field of enquiry cannot be separated from its content.
This course will help student teachers understand key concepts of the various social sciences as well as related pedagogical issues.

Furthermore, student-teachers should be encouraged to see interconnections between the different Social Sciences, i.e.

see Social sciences as an integrated area of study.

Social and economic issues and the concerns of Indian society have been introduced through real-life situations and primary sources of information.
Student-teachers are encouraged to grasp concepts and to develop thinking skills.

That is why, in certain cases, Case Studies for the transactions of topics have been indicated.
Objectives The course will enable the student teachers to -  develop an understanding of the nature of social sciences, both of individual disciplines comprising Social Sciences, and also of social sciences as an integrated/ interdisciplinary area of study;  acquire a conceptual understanding of the processes of teaching and learning social sciences;  enable student-teachers to examine the prevailing pedagogical practices in classrooms critically and to reflect on the desired changes;   acquire basic knowledge and skills to analyse and transact the social sciences curriculum effectively following wide-ranging teaching learning strategies in order to make it enjoyable and relevant for life; sensitise and equip student teachers to handle social issues and concerns in a responsible manner, e.g., preservation of environment, dealing with disaster management, promoting inclusive education, preventing social exclusion of children coming from socially and economically deprived backgrounds, and saving fast depleting natural resources (water, minerals, fossil fuels etc.).

Unit 2: Teaching-Learning of Political Science Democracy, Development, and Diversity The Unit on Political Science deals with the broad themes of democracy, development, and diversity.

These three interrelated themes are concerned with political, economic, and social aspects of our everyday life.

The contents in this unit contain key political concepts and issues.
While explaining them, teachers are expected to refer to both historical and current events, processes and personalities from India and different parts of the world.

They are also expected to make references to key concepts in the disciplines of Sociology, Economics, and Geography, so as to highlight the interrelationship between Political Science and these disciplines.

• What is Politics?
• What is Politics?

Political Science: nature and scope, key concepts, current trends elements of State: population, territory, government, and sovereignty forms of Government: democratic (liberal and social), non-democratic rule of law, authority, power, legitimacy, civil society, citizenship, rights, separation of powers.

Organs of Government: legislature, executive, and judiciary.

The issues in this Unit can be introduced by referring to the relevant items from daily newspapers (e.g.

instances of violation and protection of human rights).

The contents are to be transacted through participatory methods involving all participants.

‗learning by discussing‘ is to be followed as a regular practice in the classroom.

Social inquiry approaches can be used in teaching, learning of Political Science.
The student- teachers may be encouraged to observe actual functioning of the institutions of different local Government bodies in own district and prepare reports as group projects.

They may also be encouraged to undertake field research, conduct in-depth interviews, and interpret field data and critically understand political concepts.

• Teaching-learning Materials: Constitution of India, atlas, political maps (World, Asia, India, States, Districts), globe, two daily newspapers, news magazines.
46 Unit 3: Assessment for Learning in Social Sciences • Characteristics of assessment in Social Sciences: types of questions best suited for examining/assessing/understanding the different aspect of social sciences; questions for testing quantitative skills, questions for testing qualitative analysis; open-ended questions • Open-book tests: strengths and limitations • Evaluating answers: what to look for?

assessing projects: what to look for?


• Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) in social sciences.
Unit 4: Analysis of Social Sciences Textbooks and Question Papers • Analysing textbooks in social sciences in the light of the syllabus and from the perspective of the child (textbooks of the same class may be taken up for all subjects in social sciences) • Analysing question papers of any State Board/CBSE and NCERT's textbooks in the light of the subject specific requirements in terms of understanding and skills.
Unit 5: Inter-disciplinarily Through Projects and Field Visits Projects in social sciences should be selected keeping in view the interconnections between the various disciplines that constitute social sciences.
The interrelationship among various aspect of social sciences may be visualised as follows: • Geography and Economics: transport and communication in a region – assessing current position with reference to development needs • History and Political Science: socio-political systems; women's rights in society • Economics and History: agrarian change in India; industrialisation in India • History and Geography: migration of people in a particular region - nature of migration, past and present trends • Political Science and Geography: sharing resources between regions/states and nations (e.g.
water) • Economics and Political Science: family budget and impact of change in prices of essential commodities.

These projects are just a few examples.

similar projects may be designed by student-teachers for better understanding of various issues.

47 CPS: Pedagogy of Biological Science Introduction Being one of the disciplines of science, concerns and approaches of Biological Science are almost similar to that of Science in general.
It is an established fact that concepts, theories and principles pertaining to living organisms have evolved over a period of time.

Scientific inquiry have always been the key factor in the root of this evolution of biological sciences as a scientific discipline.

Present day‘s Biology is an outcome of the ever growing and evolving subject discipline both in school as well as higher education.
Therefore, teaching-learning practices of biological sciences is expected to address the dynamism of evolving subject knowledge as well as changing paradigm of teaching- learning process.

In biological science, earlier, emphasis were given simply to the study of the structure of organisms, its anatomy, and physiology, and understanding of relationship of organisms based on classification.
However, for last five decades and now comparatively abstract concepts like cellular and molecular basis of life, manipulation and applications of biological principles for the benefit of mankind in a diverse way, environment and its sustenance, etc.

have become focus areas in biological sciences.

This shift in approach itself is important and establishes beyond doubt that biological science is highly dynamic and gradually evolving discipline.
Learners of biological science need to understand the nature of the discipline and arouse curiosity among young learners about natural surroundings vis-à-vis the entire living world.

This discourse of learning process may include situations leading to understanding of biological facts and phenomena through inquiry, investigations and discoveries and inculcation of scientific attitude and temper.
Also, the teaching-learning of biological sciences should have focus on conservation of natural resources and sustainability of the environment besides welfare of mankind.
Objectives The course will enable the student teachers to - facilitate inculcation of scientific attitude and temper among learners   appreciate that biological science is a dynamic and expanding body of knowledge  nurture curiosity of learners about her/his natural surroundings and relationships of everyday‘s experience with concepts of biological sciences  develop insight about nature of biological sciences and for determining strategies of teaching-learning  explore different ways to create learning situations for different concepts of biological sciences and for learners of different abilities  effectively use different activities/experiments and laboratory experiments for teaching-learning of biological sciences 48  formulate appropriate and meaningful inquiry episodes, problem-solving situations and investigatory projects based on upper primary, secondary and higher secondary curriculum  examine and prioritise different pedagogical issues in biological science  develop appropriate assessment tools for the evaluation of learning of different concepts of biological sciences  develop linkage of different concepts of biological sciences with life skills and its development stimulate curiosity, creativity and inventiveness in the field of biological sciences  Important Various Concepts of Pedagogy of Biological Science listed in Units 1 to 10 given below will be evolved around the contents at Upper Primary, Secondary (Science) and Higher Secondary (Biology) syllabi by forging its linkages with the actual context of the learners and schools.
49 CPS 2: Pedagogy of Biological Science Semester-I Total Marks: 100 Contact hour: 6 hours per week Internal Assessment: 30 External Assessment: 70 Unit 1: Nature and Scope of Science and Biology  Science as a domain of inquiry and exploration; A continuously evolving discipline with focus on processes for understanding of concepts leading to knowledge and application with reference to living organisms, their surroundings, processes and phenomena.

Pedagogy of Science: Physical Science Part I & Part II.

National Council of Educational Research and Training, 2013.

60 CPS: Pedagogy of Mathematics Introduction Mathematics plays an important role in our life; it not only helps in day-to-day situations but also develops logical reasoning, abstract thinking and imagination.

It enriches life and provides new dimensions to thinking.
The struggle to learn abstract principles develops the power to formulate and understand arguments and the capacity to see interrelations among concepts.

The enriched understanding helps us to deal with abstract ideas in other subjects as well.

The goal of mathematics education in schools as envisaged by the National Curriculum Framework -2005 is the mathematisation of children‘s thought processes.

This requires developing the inner resources of a growing child.
Thus there has been a shift in the focus of learning from rote memorisation to acquiring and building knowledge through exploration and enquiry.

Teacher being a major component of the education system is required to be well aware of this child centric way of mathematics transaction in the classroom to bring out thinking individuals in the future society.

Quality education is predominantly dependent on the quality of its teachers.

The present B.Ed.
The present B.Ed.

syllabus has been developed with these concerns to help groom the teachers of tomorrow, who would make their mathematics classrooms alive and interactive in which their students would be engaged in articulating their own understanding of concepts, evolving models and developing definitions.

syllabus for pedagogy of English language has been designed in the light of the new approaches and regulations of NCTE 2014.

The course expects the teacher to look at school education in a holistic manner.

The present syllabus for English language teaching and learning has been designed keeping in view the linguistic, cultural and social diversity of our country.

English needs to be learned in the multilingual context and not in isolation.
It is important that English language teaching and learning is not situated in an entirely western framework, but rather is taught through a contextually rich local perspective.

The teacher has been viewed as a facilitator to help learners construct their knowledge and enhance creativity.

The teacher should be able to participate meaningfully to transact the syllabus and textbooks effectively along with teaching-learning materials.

104 CPS 4: Assessment for Learning Total Marks: 100 Contact Hours: 6 Hours per Week Internal Assessment: 30 External Assessment: 70 Introduction This Course – as its title suggests - proposes that student teachers become conscious of the distinction between assessment for learning and assessment of learning.

Whereas both have their place in school education, a constructivist paradigm indicates a shift in emphasis towards the former.
The course intends to enlarge current perspectives on assessment and evaluation, and enable student teachers to view student learning along multiple dimensions.

It brings a specific focus on assessment of subject-based learning, as well as processes of feedback and reporting, which are among the core competencies needed by teachers.
A critical review of the examination system and the assessment practices that derive from this is also felt to be a necessary component of the course; so that student teachers may learn to evolve more flexible and richer forms of assessment, even as they respond to current examination practices.

Assessment (and evaluation) is integral to school education and more specifically to teaching-learning.
Since education in schools presupposes certain aims and objectives, it is crucial for teachers to be aware of how the progress and growth of students is to be assessed.

This in turn implies that teachers become cognizant of which dimensions of growth or learning are to be assessed, what means are available to them for this purpose, and what effects are likely to flow from various kinds of assessment.
Objectives The course will enable the student teachers to -  gain a critical understanding of issues in assessment and evaluation (from multiple perspectives with focus on constructivist paradigm)  become cognizant of key concepts such as formative and summative assessment, evaluation and measurement, test, examination  be exposed to different kinds and forms of assessment that aid student learning  become the user of a wide range of assessment tools, and learn to select and construct these appropriately as per the need; and  evolve realistic, comprehensive and dynamic assessment procedures keeping in view the diverse backgrounds of students.

120 EPC 2: Arts in Education Total Marks: 50 Contact Hours: 3 Hours per Week Internal Assessment: 50 Introduction Arts education as one of the domains of knowledge is taught as a compulsory curricular area upto class X.

There is a need to integrate arts education in the formal schooling of students to retain our unique cultural identity in all its diversity and richness and encourage young and creative minds.
The NCF-2005 recommends Arts Education as a subject as well as a pedagogical tool to make teaching and learning of other subjects more meaningful.

The course on Arts in Education has been designed keeping in view the development of the self through arts for every student teacher and for the development of student in school through arts in education to be practiced by every teacher.
In the Bachelor of Education programme, students will be exposed to different art forms where they will develop basic skills of the art forms through hands on experience and integration of arts as pedagogy in different subject areas.

They will also use these skills in practice teaching during school internship.
Arts education also helps in enhancing analytical and critical thinking among students and learning through the arts and its related skills will help student teachers in developing their communication and inter-personal skills as well as presentational skills by bringing these in their teaching practice.
For this, not only Art teachers but every teacher in the school system needs to be sensitized to understand and experience the Arts, for holistic development of the learner, as a teacher as well as an individual.

Since every art form and specially performing arts are traditional whether classical or regional/ local, their historical background, their themes, costumes, and even expressions differ from one style to another, the social context of each form will be different and these are integrated with our subject areas either theoretically or in practice.
Like all musical instruments are based on physical sciences and mathematical calculations, which is theory whereas their practice is based on social and linguistic context.

There are many other components which can be taken up.

 Understanding Craft Traditions of India and its relevance in education (based on a set of slides, selected for the purpose); traditional crafts as a pedagogy assimilating all sciences and social sciences.
