Correct Answer - Option 3 : Active participation of learner through engaging activities
NCF-2005 is the National Curriculum Framework published in 2005, by the National Council of Education, Research, and Training (NCERT).
-
It is the official document which states that the curriculum must be student-centric and beyond the textbooks.
- It also emphasized making classroom activities more flexible and related to daily life.
-
NCF-2005 emphasized the active participation of students through engaging in activities and exploration.
- It is focused on the constructivist approach of learning that is given by Jean Piaget, a swiss psychologist who is well renowned for his work in child development.
- Constructivism is centered on the idea that human knowledge and learning are actively constructed by the learner, not passively received from the environment.
- It states that the children learn and build their own concepts while interacting and involved with their surrounding environment that can be social, physical, mental, or emotional.
- Knowledge is always created and constructed by the experiences of an individual.
So, it can be concluded that the NCF-2005 emphasized the constructivist approach to learning by the active participation of learners through engaging activities.
Note- Memorizing of definition and formulae, submission of regular working, and effective lecture and instruction by the teacher are not constructive methods of learning as they can only help in the teaching curriculum.
