Importance of Interacting with Philosophy

  In last few months I am experiencing some some positive behavioural changes which I think are worth mentioning. It is obvious that these changes do not come over night but a result of continuous internalization or practice of knowledge, skill and values from long period. I am also convinced that studying philosophy has been one of the key element for such change. ‎ ‎The first think I feel is I have became selective in reading. I love what I read, I do not force myself to read anything indiscriminately.  I have become interested in discussing idea, sharing experiences and scratching believes rather than looking for scopes and trends. ‎ ‎Second, There has been a change in my attitude towards accomplishment of tasks. The tasks which I wanted to complete at any cost now I take pause, take some more time, thing alternatives with less worries. I do things for pleasure with less expectations of achievements. For example, If I intend to have some jobs or apply for an scholarship...

Reflection on Views of Science Teachers on Inquiry-Based Teaching Method in Secondary Classes

  Reflection on Views of Science Teachers on Inquiry-Based Teaching Method in Secondary Classes Imagine a classroom where asking questions leads to deeper learning, this is what inquiry-based teaching is all about, helping students think and understand better (Kawalkar, Jyotsna & Vijapurkar, 2013). During my recent research with several secondary school science teachers at the University of Education, I explored their views on the inquiry-based teaching method by interviewing them. The science teachers shared their experiences, highlighting the benefits and challenges, their philosophy about the method, and their assessment of implementing this approach in their classrooms. Initially, I was very happy to hear how inquiry-based teaching was received in secondary education. It was a joyous moment for me when I heard that students were enjoying while participating in the classroom. As the discussion moved forward, I felt so sad for the teachers’ concern about the difficulties ...

What Students Should Know in the future

  What Students Should Know in the future  Preparing for the future has been the core focus of education. Adapting to the changing world, integrating modern devices in schools, coping with climate change, and providing students a chance to think out of the box are changing demands of future-ready curricula. Future-ready curricula are designed to equip students with the essential skills and knowledge required to adapt to evolving rapid change (Schwab, 2016). Awareness about climate change (Nadeem and Nawaz, 2022), integration of technology in education (Vennatta at all, 2014), and major space for critical thinking (Ro.j, 2023) in the curriculum can improve their quality of life. A curriculum is required that helps a child to use the advanced gauge as using another part of the word, cope with climate changes, and think out of the box. Our current curriculum has failed to integrate certain needs in education which resulted in 26 million students out of school, a supportless sch...

The Philosophical Thoughts of Dr Meher Rizvi; curriculum

The Philosophical Thoughts of Dr Meher Rizvi It is the personal interest of a writer to write down what he thinks is the best. The following four ideas, attributed to Dr Meher Rizvi, have been heard with her in a face-to-face conversation. I found these words more effective and hit me deep down. Simplicity has more philosophy The phrase "Simplicity has more philosophy" suggests that simplicity often embodies deeper wisdom and profound understanding. In this line, Dr Meher Rizvi says that complex truths and insights can be distilled into simple, clear ideas. Simple ideas keep deep and heavy thoughts. If you have a strong grip on a topic, you can make others easily understand.   Too many prescriptions kill creativity When there are too many predefined ways of doing things, it limits the freedom and flexibility. If the fences protect a young plant, it can also cause to hinder its growth. Therefore, never limit someone by telling him or her about the aftermath. Let him ...
