Invited Lecture onĀ  Knowledge, Understanding and Reflective Levels of Teaching


Organised by
Department of Education
North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong

In collaboration with
DIET, Nongpoh
Under the MHRD Scheme of
Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya National Mission on Teachers and Teaching
(PPMMMNMTT)

(4th December, 2019)

Teaching is a purposeful activity and through teaching the teacher brings a desirable change in the learner. Both the concepts teaching and learning are interrelated to each other. Development of all-round personality of the learner is the final goal of teaching and learning. During teaching an interaction takes place between an experienced person (teacher) and an inexperienced person (student). Here, the main aim is to bring change in the behavior of the student. Teachers teach students at three levels. They have to keep in mind about the developmental stage of the learners so that desired educational objectives can be achieved. These three levels are 1. Memory level: least Thoughtful teaching, 2. Understanding level: moderate Thoughtful teaching and 3. Reflective level: Upper/most thoughtful level. 
The existing education system focuses on first two levels of teaching i.e. memory and understanding. However the reflective level is very important and provides scope for introspection. Moreover it is Student centred rather than teacher centred. Prospective teachers must have the knowledge of all three levels of teaching and apply the same in the classrooms. 
In this context, recognising the importance of the different levels of teaching, the Department of Education, North-Eastern Hill University in collaboration with DIET, Nongpoh under the MHRD Scheme of Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya National Mission on Teachers and Teaching have planned to organize an Invited Lecture on ‘Knowledge, Understanding and Reflective Levels of Teaching’. The lecture aims to sensitize the student-teachers and teacher educators on different levels of teaching.
