Aims and objectives of teaching in physical science

The document discusses the aims and objectives of teaching physical science in secondary school. It states that the main purpose is to provide students with basic knowledge of physical science needed for further study in modern science and technology. It also aims to develop students' experimental skills, ability to think, and use of mathematics to solve problems. The study of physical science can benefit fields like industry, defense, and agriculture. Objectives should control classroom instruction and be written in measurable terms for each instructional unit in order to effectively teach students physical science concepts and theories.

 The main purpose of teaching physical science in secondary school is to enable students to grasp systematically the basic knowledge of physical science needed for the further study of modern science and technology.
The study of physical science helps Acquire experimental skill Develop ability to think. Use mathematics to solve the problem. In the field of industry, defence, and agriculture.
Physical science can claim an honorable place in school curriculum. So the aims an objectives of teaching physics must be based on some criterion. Thurber and Collette have proposed the following criteria for selection of aims.
 Usefulness Timeliness Finess Appropriateness Practicability
•To make students interested I physics. •To familiarizes the students with the important role played in physics in their daily life. • To develop in students a scientific culture •To provide a training to students in methods of science.
•To emphasize upon students the role of physics on social behavior. •To prepare students for those vocations which require a sound knowledge of physics. •To increase understanding to such a level that he can understand various concept and theories.
Objectives are the specific and precise behavioral outcomes of teaching a particular topic or lesson of physical science.
The common education objective are 1. Acquisition of knowledge. 2. Intellectual abilities. skill + Knowledge = ability intellectual ability refer to situations in which the individual is expected to bring specific technical information to bear on a new problem.
Objectives actually control other factors of physics teaching to great extent therefore more emphasis be laid on writing the objectives in behavioral terms for each unit of class room instructions in physics.
