Discussion
Muskan organized a debate on the topic 'Use of diesel vehicles in transportation should be prohibited'. What is the purpose of organizing this debate by Muskan in classroom ?
Answer: D
The debate helps students in appreciating multiple perspectives on this issue.
A debate puts forward arguments on both sides of a question, such as cleaner air against the cost to transport, livelihoods and goods movement. Its purpose in EVS is to develop critical thinking and an understanding that environmental issues involve competing views.
Using the debate to persuade students that diesel vehicles must be banned, or that modern vehicles are better, turns it into one-sided teaching. Using it to find out students' views in order to 'correct' them treats their opinions as errors instead of respecting different viewpoints.
