Discussion
Seema, an EVS teacher organised a field trip to zoo for her students. Which of the following are the most appropriate objectives of the trip to the zoo ?
(a) Recall names of animals in the zoo
(b) To relate concepts related to animals
(c) To promote process skills
(d) Assessment of students' learning at the zoo
Answer: B
The most appropriate objectives are (b), (c) and (d).
A zoo visit should help children relate what they see to concepts about animals, such as food, habitat and movement (b), practise process skills like observing, questioning, comparing and recording (c), and let the teacher assess their learning as they work in a real setting (d).
Merely recalling the names of animals (a) is rote learning that a classroom list could provide, so it is not one of the most appropriate objectives of a field trip.
