Social Reconstruction and its Application to Teaching
Authors(1) :-Dr. Nitin Kumar Jain
Teaching of Indian Language: an NCERT document clearly focussed on the constructive learning pedagogical aspects of Indian Languages. In this concern, the books for primary language teaching were prepared in the light of constructive approach. In the Preface of these books, we find highlights that the present life of students should be correlated to their off-school life. This off-school life, in other words the social life should be subject matter of any language pedagogy. Second, the creative and initiative behaviours of students should be enhanced in large scale patterns of learning values with processes and procedures. On above two issues, social reconstruction theory has great implication.
Actually this is time of reconstruction. We observe everywhere the waves of reconstruction: an economic, political, cultural and social reconstruction. In this regards, Concept of Social Reconstruction has its own implications to society and education. This is emerging concept influencing the teaching-learning environment. Social Reconstruction as a theory, not a complete philosophy has an epistemological perspective to teaching methods. In this paper, some selected methods are being discussed as an application of Social Reconstruction. Primary level is selected for this discussion. The main theme for following method is social-awareness and a consciousness to make this global society more peaceful. Methods like Task-based Interaction, Experience-based Experiment, High Order Thinking Skill, Brain-based Learning, Role Playing, and Cooperative Learning are being discussed here as effective application of Social Reconstruction for Language Teaching at Primary Level.
