समावेशी शिक्षा Inclusive education

समावेशी शिक्षा    Inclusive education  एक शिक्षा प्रणाली है।   शिक्षा का   समावेशीकरण   यह बताता है कि विशेष शैक्षणिक आवश्यकताओं की पूर्ति के लिए एक सामान्य छात्र और एक दिव्यागछात्र को समान शिक्षा प्राप्ति के अवसर मिलने चाहिए। इसमें एक सामान्य छात्र एक दिव्याग छात्र के साथ विद्यालय में अधिकतर समय बिताता है। पहले समावेशी शिक्षा की परिकल्पना सिर्फ विशेष छात्रों के लिए की गई थी लेकिन आधुनिक काल में हर शिक्षक को इस सिद्धांत को विस्तृत दृष्टिकोण में अपनी कक्षा में व्यवहार में लाना चाहिए। समावेशी शिक्षा या एकीकरण के सिद्धांत की ऐतिहासक जड़ें कनाडा और अमेरिका से जुड़ीं हैं। प्राचीन शिक्षा पद्धति की जगह नई शिक्षा नीति का प्रयोग आधुनिक समय में होने लगा है। समावेशी शिक्षा विशेष विद्यालय या कक्षा को स्वीकार नहीं करता। अशक्त बच्चों को सामान्य बच्चों से अलग करना अब मान्य नहीं है। विकलांग बच्चों को भी सामान्य बच्चों की तरह ही शैक्षिक गतिविधियों में भाग लेने का अधिकार है। शिक्षक कक्षा में सहयोग की भावना बढ़ाने के लिए कुछ तरीकों का उपयोग करते हैं समुदाय भावना को...

Teacher Collaboration Helps Raise Student Achievement शिक्षक सहयोग से बढ़ता है छात्रों का संप्राप्ति स्तर

शिक्षण : Teaching is simultaneously one of the hardest and one of the most rewarding jobs in the world. We often say that students make it worth it, but there’s something else that can make or break your happiness as a teacher: your colleagues.  “When teachers work together with their colleagues to look at student learning data, use it to determine student learning needs, and then determine their own learning needs based on what students need, they design programs that really help improve instruction. That’s social capital at its finest.” for successful collaboration: 1. Build Relationships: Teaching is emotionally draining, and the best colleagues can be there for you in all types of situations. A student erupted in anger? Go next door at lunch time and get a hug. A student said a wildly funny thing in the middle of class? Pop your head into a colleague’s classroom and let your laughter loose. Remember to ask your colleagues to share their trials and tr...

20 Collaborative Learning Tips And Strategies For Teachers: शिक्षको हेतु शिक्षण और सिखाने ध्यान रखने योग्य टिप्स

-

1. Establish group goals समूह के उद्देश्य  Effective collaborative learning involves establishment of group goals, as well as individual accountability. This keeps the group on task and establishes an unambiguous purpose. Before beginning an assignment, it is best to define goals and objectives to save time. 2. Keep groups midsized सिमित समूह में रहना  Small groups of 3 or less lack enough diversity and may not allow divergent thinking to occur. Groups that are too large create “freeloading” where not all members participate. A moderate size group of 4-5 is ideal. 3. Establish flexible group norms समूह के नियमो का लचीलापन   Research  suggests that collaborative learning is influenced by the quality of interactions.  Interactivity and negotiation are important in group learning. In the  1960’s studies by Jacobs and Campbell  suggested that norms are pervasive, even deviant norms were handed down and not questioned. If you noti...
