Description
Unfortunately, most of the teachers do not know how to apply the educational and psychological principles they have learnt during their training. They enter the class, deliver the lecture, ask questions and come out after the scheduled time. Is this teaching or telling?
The present book, based on psychological findings and their impact on educational processes, is therefore designed to fulfil the needs of newly-trained teachers who have come out of the educational training institutions to enter the school classroom and face the pupils during the process of teaching.
Apart from the problems of learning processes, the problems of human motivation have also been dealt with in the context of classroom activities. Overall, the present book is an outgrowth of study and experimentation in problems and methods of teaching in the area of classroom teaching and psychology. Its outstanding trend is increased application of findings to learning situations.
The book will be a valuable source for teaching community at large.
