NCF 2005 : providing a basis for radical changes in the Indian education system NCF draws from Gandhiji’s vision of education as a means of raising the nation’s conscience towards injustice, violence and inequality entrenched in the social order. The NPE, 1986 and the PoA 1992 assigned a special role to NCERT in preparing and promoting a National Curriculum Framework which was later reviewed in the light of Learning without Burden (1993). NCF draws from Gandhiji’s vision of education as a means of raising the nation’s conscience towards injustice, violence and inequality entrenched in the social order. The NPE, 1986 and the PoA 1992 assigned a special role to NCERT in preparing and promoting a National Curriculum Framework which was later reviewed in the light of Learning without Burden (1993).

BACKGROUND NCERT set up the National Steering Committee under the chairpersonship of Prof. Yashpal. The National Steering Committee had 35 members, including scholars from different discipline, principals and teachers, CBSE Chairman, representatives of well known NGOs and members of the NCERT faculty. The National Steering Committee was responsible for preparing the revised National Curriculum Framework document The National Policy on Education (NPE, 1986) AND THE Programme of Action (POA, 1992) assigned a pivotal role to NCERT in preparing a National Curriculum Framework (NCF).

TRAINING OBJECTIVES Training focuses on empowerment of teachers, based on the following principles: Continuous Collaboration: by building caring and democratic relationships between Trainers and participants, and encouraging peer learning among teachers.

Attitudinal changes By targeting teachers’ affective domain through stories, activities and discussions that touch teachers’ hearts and inspire them with a desire and vision for change.

Reflective Practice By including ample time for personal and group reflection, in order to encourage teachers to critically reflect on their previous experiences, their own teaching practice, their philosophy of education, and some of their underlying beliefs and assumptions about children, the purpose of education, etc.

Five guiding principles for curriculum development:. Connecting knowledge to life outside the school ii. Ensuring that learning shifts away from rote methods iii. Enriching the curriculum so that it goes beyond textbooks iv. Making examinations more flexible and integrating them with classroom life and v. Nurturing an overriding identity informed by caring concerns within the democratic polity of the country.. Connecting knowledge to life outside the school ii. Ensuring that learning shifts away from rote methods iii. Enriching the curriculum so that it goes beyond textbooks iv. Making examinations more flexible and integrating them with classroom life and v. Nurturing an overriding identity informed by caring concerns within the democratic polity of the country.

TRAINING NEED ANALYSIS There is an attempt to shift teacher training programs towards more experiential, participatory, constructivist training methods.The National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 2005 calls for a transformation in our teaching – learning process from teacher centred to Learner centred – to learner directed

The School Based Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation system should be established to: Reduce stress on children Make evaluation comprehensive and regular Provide space for the teacher for creative teaching Provide a tool of diagnosis and remedial action Produce learners with greater skills Reduce stress on children Make evaluation comprehensive and regular Provide space for the teacher for creative teaching Provide a tool of diagnosis and remedial action Produce learners with greater skills

Experiential learning Through practical workshops where teachers can see a different model of learner-centred pedagogy being demonstrated, and where they get a chance to actually plan and practice teaching active lessons (if possible with real children), with the support of the trainers.

For Transactional Process The objectives are: To help develop cognitive, psychomotor and affective skills To lay emphasis on thought process and de- emphasise memorization To make evaluation an integral part of teaching- learning process To use evaluation for improvement of students achievement and teaching-learning strategies on the basis of regular diagnosis followed by remedial instructions The objectives are: To help develop cognitive, psychomotor and affective skills To lay emphasis on thought process and de- emphasise memorization To make evaluation an integral part of teaching- learning process To use evaluation for improvement of students achievement and teaching-learning strategies on the basis of regular diagnosis followed by remedial instructions

To use evaluation as a quality control device to maintain desired standard of performance To determine social utility, desirability or effectiveness of a programme and take appropriate decisions about the learner, the process of learning and the learning environment To make the process of teaching and learning a learner-centred activity To use evaluation as a quality control device to maintain desired standard of performance To determine social utility, desirability or effectiveness of a programme and take appropriate decisions about the learner, the process of learning and the learning environment To make the process of teaching and learning a learner-centred activity

Child centred pedagogy means giving primacy to children’s experiences, their voices and their active participation. It discusses the nature of knowledge and the need for adults to change their perceptions of the child as a passive receiver of knowledge; rather the child can be an active participant in the construction of knowledge by encouraging children to ask questions, relate what they are learning in school to things happening outside, encouraging them to answer form their own experiences and in their own words rather than by memorizing. It recognizes the need for developing an enabling and non- threatening environment, since an environment of fear, discipline and stress is detrimental to learning.
