This new book consists of 'Activities' that students can do on various environmental topics. Dear Reader,
Environment ceased to be a sideshow recently, after the country's apex
curriculum setter and the two dominant education boards decided to allocate
scores to the subject in the crucial school-leaving examinations. As per
the current guidelines, the assessment will not be based on the conventional
'study-text-books-write-examination' mode. Grades will depend on how active
the examinee has been 'on the ground'.
CSE's Environment Education Unit has always been working towards providing
easy-to-understand reading material. Our new publication on this subject
is an attempt to lend teachers a helping hand. It unfolds in two
sections: Climate Change: how to make sense of it all, & Natural
Resources: how to share and care. Here, the key issues selected adhere
strictly to curriculum guidelines. However, they are introduced to students
not as a paragraph to memorise, but as an activity to do.
Each activity sheet begins with a Curriculum Connect, a brief note to
teachers that matches suggested assignments to the curriculum stream
(sciences, social sciences etc.) and to the class level (primary, mid or
senior). Likewise, Gobar Gyan, a succinct backgrounder, that precedes each
activity set, explains to students why they are being asked to do the task.
We have made a determined effort to make each of these four-page activity
sheets self contained. Each activity sheet includes references to external
information materials, online linkages and relevant data.
Introductory price of the book is Rs 290/- (USD39)
Order multiple copies of this activity book as you will need to make copies
of the various activities to be given out to students as assignments.
