  • A.it is inexpensive and accessible
  • B.elderly people are wise and have time
  • C.it provides learning opportunity in real setting
  • D.one can accept all knowledge available in the community uncritically

Answer: C

The community is an important resource because it provides learning opportunity in real setting.

The community offers children first-hand experience of the people, occupations, practices, plants and animals that EVS deals with. Learning from it in its real context makes concepts meaningful and connects school with life outside it, as NCF 2005 urges.

Being cheap and accessible is a convenience, not the reason it is educationally valuable. Elderly people can be a source, but not all are wise and free, and knowledge from the community should be examined critically, not accepted uncritically.
