Teacher - Good morning students, everyone please open your textbook to a new chapter on page no 45 and Fareen start reading the 1st paragraph for your class loudly.
Fareen - 'Revolution is a forcible overthrow of a government or social order, in favour of a new system'
Teacher - Yes, this means Revolution. Now copy down the meaning in your notebook.
And this is how our teacher acquainted us to any concept in History.
Now when I am an educator, I reflect upon those days and assumed how insignificant and monotonous the approach of teaching then was. Those days indeed prove a lesson to me every time I plan my classroom today. 21st-century learners are those who create, evaluate and utilize information critically; they indeed need the 21st-century teaching approach, they deserve to be taught innovatively, collaboratively and actively in a classroom and then the lessons would prove significant.
You all know how I taught Revolution, Civilization, and War to my students; by cooking those concepts. Cooking is an engaging and exciting approach to teaching. It is indeed an innovative way to introduce these concepts in the classroom.
School - Euro International School, Airoli
