Discussion
Read the following statements and choose the correct option :
Assertion (A) : Learning of EVS needs to be oriented to process skills relating to observation, identification, classification, etc.
Reason (R) : Through acquiring various process skills, the learning outcomes of EVS learning are expected to be achieved.
Answer: B
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
The NCERT EVS syllabus emphasises process skills such as observation, identification, classification, recording, discussion, explanation and expression, rather than memorising facts. That is the assertion.
The reason gives the purpose of this orientation: the learning outcomes of EVS are framed in terms of these skills, so they are achieved as children acquire and use them. Orienting learning to process skills is right because that is how the outcomes are reached, so the reason explains the assertion.
