Phases
Teacher Activity
Pupil Activity


Phase  1

Students encounter a puzzling situation






Your friend Mr.Raj is the newly appointed HRM of Tata Motors and his company needs 5 numbers of senior accountants.  He took your advice, whether he should recruit internally or externally. You are supposed to explain the difference between the 2. So what you think?







Listen carefully.



Phase  2

Students explore reactions to the situation.























Phase  3

Students formulate study tasks and organize for study.



Phase  4

Independence and group study.



Phase  5

Students analyze progress and process.




Phase  6

Recycle the activities.








Students respond differently to the problematic situation. Teacher encourages students to respond freely. To check the knowledge of students, teacher presents handouts to the students.
                 
                  Handouts contain features of the internal and external recruitments and students are assigned to identify the form of recruitment.


Handout

  Group A : Find Internal Recruitment
  Group B : Find External Recruitment


1.      Less time consuming.
2.      More time consuming.
3.      More economical.
4.      Costly.
5.      Limited choice.
6.      Wider choice.
7.      Boost up the morale of existing employees.
8.      Brings down the morale of existing employees.







Class is divided into different groups as A and B and each group is given each tasks. Group A has to investigate Internal Recruitment and Group B, External Recruitment.



.


Teacher facilitate for the group process. She channelizes the energy into potentially educational activity.






Students analyses the handouts and report their results.

Group A   :   Internal Recruitment 1,3,5,7.

INCULCATING THE VALUE OF "WATER CONSERVATION"



A strategy to inculcate the value

“WATER CONSERVATION”


Values are the principles that allow us to guide ones behavior to fulfill oneself as individuals. They are the fundamental beliefs and help us to prefer accept and choose one thing over the other one. Value education is the inculcation of a sense of humanism, a deep concern for the wellbeing of others and the nation.
Water conservation is such type of value, which should be inculcated in the children at the earlier stage. It means using water wisely and caring for it properly for the coming generation and for ourselves.
To inculcate the value of water conservation among students of GHHS, Kalanjoor, I felt showing video clippings is the best alternative. Selected 2 best videos and downloaded it from the youtube site. One is an animated one and other one is a video containing some photos and captions and with a soothing background music. The site ids are

Details of the videos shown

1st video
Some sound is hearing from darkness which could not be identified clearly. Later slowly one boy enters into the kitchen for having something. There one tap is in turned on state and water is flowing down. That was the sound which is hearing. At the same time a scene from a far away village place, a lengthy queue of water pots, at the front of the queue one old man is sitting near a tap, which is not producing water. Again the scene in the kitchen, the small boy turns of the tap and on the other side, at the same time tap starts producing water. Everybody at the village starts dancing with joy as they get water.

2nd video
It is with soothing background music of the song har khadi badhal…, titanic song and vandhe matharam instrumental play. It includes photos with inspiring captions.
The video starts with a statement
“70% of earth is water”
“They say”   (it shows photos from North India with a lot of water containers which they use to bring water from faraway places.)
Are they getting even 1% of it?”
“we are lucky to have a glass”
“Glass ?? Weird…!! Isn’t it? Then what about them?”
“This is where we store the water”   (shows refrigerator)
“And they?”   (Shows bore well, old broken containers)
“This is what we do”   (shows wasting water)
 “And they”   (even small children with small pots filled)
 “We try to waste water and they struggle for collect a single drop”
Why such differences? Aren’t we educated?)
“Don’t know about their problems? Then why?)
“Somehow they are used to it… Are we?? Can we??”
“Let’s do one thing.. MUST DO!!!)
“SAVE WATER” There are number of ways for it”
“They start all with u.. That’s it… will you do?”
“EACH ONE, REACH ONE 2 TEACH ONE”
           



The video ends with this slogan


“EACH ONE REACH ONE 2 TEACH ONE ABOUT THE NEED OF WATER CONSERVATION”

            The videos created a very good impact on students. Many students took a decision at the moment that they will don’t waste water anymore. I too felt very proud as I took this particular topic for the purpose and I could present it well. If I could make one child changed… I am satisfied!!!!!

CONCEPTS OF E-JOURNAL, PODCASTING,E-LEARNING  WEB BASED LEARNING





E-journals


Electronic journals, also known as e-journals and electronic serials, are scholarly journals or intellectual magazines that can be accessed via electronic transmission. In practice, this means that they are usually published on the Web. They are a specialized form of electronic document: they have the purpose of providing material for academic research and study, and they are formatted approximately like journal articles in traditional printed journals. Many electronic journals are listed in directories such as the Directory of Open Access Journals, and the articles indexed in bibliographic databases and search engines for the academic discipline concerned.
Some electronic journals are online-only journals; some are online versions of printed journals, and some consist of the online equivalent of a printed journal, but with additional online-only (sometimes video and interactive media) material.
Most commercial journals are subscription-based, and/or allow pay-per-view access. Many universities subscribe in bulk to packages of electronic journals, so as to provide access to them to their students and faculty. It is generally also possible for individuals to purchase an annual subscription to a journal from the original publisher.
An increasing number of e-journals are available as open access journals, requiring no subscription and offering free full-text articles and reviews to all. Individual articles from electronic journals may be found online for free in an ad-hoc manner: in working paper archives; on personal homepages; and in the collections held in institutional repositories and subject repositories. Some commercial journals find ways to offer free materials. They may offer their initial issue or issues free, and then charge thereafter. Some give away their book reviews section for free. Others offer the first few pages of each article for free.
Most electronic journals are published in HTML and/or PDF formats, but some are available in only one of the two formats. A small minority publish in DOC, and a few are starting to add MP3 audio. Some early electronic journals were first published in ASCII text, and some informally published ones continue in that format.


Pod casting


A podcast is a digital medium consisting of an episodic series of audio, video, PDF, or ePub files subscribed to and downloaded through web syndication or streamed online to a computer or mobile device. The word is a neologism and portmanteau derived from "broadcast" and "pod" from the success of the iPod, as audio podcasts are often listened to on portable media players.
Merriam Webster defines Podcast: a program (as of music or talk) made available in digital format for automatic download over the Internet.
A list of all the audio or video files associated with a given series is maintained centrally on the distributor's server as a web feed, and the listener or viewer employs special client application software, known as a podcatcher, that can access this web feed, check it for updates, and download any new files in the series. This process can be automated so that new files are downloaded automatically, which may seem to the user as if the content is being broadcast or "pushed" to them. Files are stored locally on the user's computer or other device ready for offline use, giving simple and convenient access to the content. Podcasting contrasts with webcasting (Internet streaming), which generally isn't designed for offline listening to user-selected content.
As discussed by Richard Berry, podcasting is both a converged medium bringing together audio, the web and portable media player, and a disruptive technology that has caused some in the radio business to reconsider some of the established practices and preconceptions about audiences, consumption, production and distribution. This idea of disruptiveness is largely because no one person owns the technology; it is free to listen and create content, which departs from the traditional model of 'gate-kept' media and production tools It is very much a horizontal media form: producers are consumers and consumers become producers and engage in conversations with each other.

E-learning


E-learning (or eLearning) is the use of electronic media, educational technology and information and communication technologies (ICT) in education. E-learning includes numerous types of media that deliver text, audio, images, animation, and streaming video, and includes technology applications and processes such as audio or video tape, satellite TV, CD-ROM, and computer-based learning, as well as local intranet/extranet and web-based learning. Information and communication systems, whether free-standing or based on either local networks or the Internet in networked learning, underly many e-learning processes.
E-learning can occur in or out of the classroom. It can be self-paced, asynchronous learning or may be instructor-led, synchronous learning. E-learning is suited to distance learning and flexible learning, but it can also be used in conjunction with face-to-face teaching, in which case the term blended learning is commonly used.
E-learning includes, and is broadly synonymous with multimedia learning, technology-enhanced learning (TEL), computer-based instruction (CBI), computer managed instruction, computer-based training (CBT), computer-assisted instruction or computer-aided instruction (CAI), internet-based training (IBT), flexible learning, web-based training (WBT), online education, virtual education, virtual learning environments (VLE) (which are also called learning platforms), m-learning, and digital education. These alternative names individually emphasize a particular digitization approach, component or delivery method, but conflate to the broad domain of e-learning. For example, m-learning emphasizes mobility, but is otherwise indistinguishable in principle from e-learning.



Web based learning



Web-based learning is associated with learning materials delivered in a Web browser,
including when the materials are packaged on CD-ROM or other media. Web-based learning has got much attention as being an incredible opportunity to study nowadays. Despite of its popularity the notion still remains unclear and confusing. First of all it has many names. online learning, e-learning, computer-based training, technology-based instruction etc. Generally the meaning and the basic concept of them are the same. Web-based learning is one way to learn, using web-based technologies or tools in a learning process. In other words, learner uses mainly computers to interact with the teacher, other students and learning material. Web-based learning consists of technology that supports traditional classroom training and online learning environments. "Pure" web-based courses are wholly based on computer and online possibilities. In this case all the communication and learning activities are done online. On the other hand, web-based courses may have some face-to-face sessions besides the distant learning tasks. In this case they are called blended courses as they blend web-based activities with face-to-face activities. Web-based learning can be also formal or informal. Formal web-based learning is purposed and learning activities are organised by teachers. Informal learning takes place while you are searching material from the Internet. It is self-paced, depending on your goals and ambition to learn.
