About the Book

This book has been designed with up-to-date facts, tables, figures and charts for use by students of B.Ed., M.Ed. and M.A. (Education) of various Indian universities. The distinguishing features of this book are lucidity of language, systematic presentation of facts and citation of recent findings of research at national and international levels. In addition to traditional areas of study, certain themes which are very rarely found in other Indian books have been discussed in this book. These themes which make this book different from other Indian books are: behaviour problems at different stages, development of language, needs and problems of adolescents, adolescent gifted, adolescent slow learners, principles of learning, how children learn, mastery learning, core teaching skills, functional autonomy of motives, maladjustment, frustration and conflict, current approaches to teaching and learning (views of Gagne, Ausubel, Bandura and Bruner), organizational climate, leadership styles, ecology of education, stress management and inclusive education. A quick look at any of the twenty-three chapters of the book will indicate the originality of the authors in organising ideas culled from many different sources, both traditional and modern. It is a need-based book meant for students and beginner teachers.
