Discussion
It is said that children learn a lot from their surroundings quite easily. Their experiences should be brought into the classroom, their questions answered and their curiosities satisfied. By doing so, the curriculum of EVS can be made more enriching and creative. In the context of the above, the curriculum of Environmental Studies is indicating which of the following principles ?
Answer: D
The principle is Local to Global.
The passage says EVS should begin with what children learn from their own surroundings and bring those experiences into the classroom. Starting from the child's immediate environment and moving outwards to wider and more distant contexts is the 'local to global' principle of the EVS curriculum.
'Global to local' is the reverse. 'Unknown to known' reverses the accepted maxim 'known to unknown'. 'Information to understanding' is not the principle the passage describes, since it is about where learning starts, not about turning facts into understanding.
