Developing Scientific Temper- Amplifying knowledge and Reasoning

"What science is learning about the laws that govern the Universe, gives us the power to transform the world into the closest thing to paradise that any of us will ever see. This knowledge did not come from sacred texts, or the revelations of prophets. Science is the only way of knowing—everything else is just superstition.”  Scientific attitude is the most important outcome of scientific teaching and it is something which enable us to think rationally and logically. For developing the nation in all spheres (political, economic and social) and for promoting tolerance among people for different thoughts scientific attitude become significant.    For the betterment of the field of science in India, it is very important to develop scientific temper among the students or the future generations.   Here I wish to share my assignment on the topic 'developing scientific temper among students'.  Please click the link below to avail the same👇 ASSIGN...

Towards Tranquility!

20/01/2022 A calm day full of positivity and hopes.  The day started with the class of Maya ma'am. The session gave an introduction to the four schools of philosophy and a detailed description of Idealism. Idealism mainly focus on - Truth, Tranquility and Innocence, and Beauty. The class gave an opportunity to look into ourselves for a while. Spirituality is a journey from the outer world of names and forms to the subtle world of energies, to the innermost core of our being, to ourselves! As always, I adore the way Maya Ma'am introduce a thought. The next session was dealt by Gibi Ma'am. The class discussed about the Scope of educational psychology in learning process and learning method. The session just gave an idea on intellectual development too.  As Gibi ma'am explained what Bruner had quoted is exactly right,  "Anything can be taught at any level, if we are providing proper learning experience in an intellectually honest way" ...

It's all in the MIND!

1 2 January 2022 Today, January 12 is celebrated as national youth day and it is the birthday of Swami Vivekananda who introduced the world to the Indian philosophies of  Vedanta and Yoga.  The main objective of NYD is to promote rational thinking among the youth. Youth is expected to rise to the values, principles and beliefs that Vivekananda lived by. To make this possible the theme of youth days keeps changing, every year there are different themes.  The theme for National Youth Day 2022 is “ IT'S ALL IN THE MIND ” A very meaningful theme in the present scenario! We are now passing through a pandemic situation and it had affected the world as well as our country adversely. A post Covid era need a strong group of people with creativity and resilience. For that a healthy mindset is important.  The youth of our country had already affected with unemployment and it has increased due to the pandemic. The financial instability and effective...

The flow of time. Black holes. Time travel !

My inner mind is so happy because I finally read this book. The last book I have read in 2021! I decided, after looking at the books I read in 2021 that I needed to read a science book apart from fictions I always prefer. So picked this up and I was not disappointed.  From the beginning of the universe, A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME  takes you on a journey that is very special, it describes in a very easy way how we got to understand the world and all the rules that govern the universe. It also explores the beginning of the universe, black holes, time travel. With the cheekiness of Stephen Hawking’s writing, you get to understand topic that are very complex and sometimes confusing, physics is somewhat a difficult area of science, but one that is amazingly interesting. Hawking makes you fall in love with his work, his theory and physics. I won’t lie, it’s a hard book to read. It gets heavy at some points but it’s easy to read too, I mean it’s not a textbook. ...

Exploring from known to unknown

04 January, 2022 Another happy day with a lot of hope and content.  The day call us to Rise up, Start fresh and to see the bright opportunity in each day. The first hour was handled by Maya Ma'am. Along with her beautiful smile she presented the topic P aradigm shift . Also the duties and responsibilities of a teacher were discussed in the class. " Teachers, I believe, are the most responsible and important members of society Because their professional efforts affect the fate of the Earth." After the session, Principal Benedict sir welcomed the M.Ed trainees from Gov. College of teacher Education for their internship.  In the next session Gibi Ma'am discussed the Maxims of teaching. She recited a poem to awake our imaginary skills. 'മുകിലുകള്‍ മേയും കുന്നിന്‍ ചരിവിലൊരമ്പലമുണ്ടല്ലോ അമ്പലനടയില്‍ പന്തലിടുന്നൊരു മാമരമുണ്ടല്ലോ' and it took me to the school days and the memories of those days.😊 In the optional hour Neena ma'a...
