Activity based approach of learning mathematics-Thiyagu
A Mathematics Teacher has a variety of methods and techniques available for use in teaching mathematics. The selection of suitable method depends upon the objectives of the lesson, needs of the learner and the nature of the content. Some methods are more appropriate for individualised instruction. In Active learning methodologies, that shifts the focus of the classroom from teaching to learning to and from the teacher to the learner. Often, teaching and learning are linked logically in the teachers mind. The two processes are not linearly linked. Good teaching does not automatically lead to good learning. This is evidenced by the fact of un- interested, disengaged children in classrooms. The learner based curriculum places the child’s engagement with his/her learning at the centre and sees the teacher as a facilitator in the process.
Activity based learning focuses use of these sense organs and learning should be based on doing some hands-on experiments and activities. The idea of activity-based learning is rooted in the common notion that children are active learners rather than passive recipients of information. If child is provided the opportunity to explore his/her own and provided an optimum learning environment then the learning becomes joyful and long-lasting. The key feature of the activity approach is that it uses child-friendly educational aids to foster self-learning and allows a child to study according to his/her aptitude and skill. At school level in mathematics the activity/activities may be in the form of game, puzzle, worksheet, paper folding/paper cutting, concept mapping of mathematical modelling etc.
