Environmental Awareness among the Students of 10th Class of Chamba Districtpaperpublications3
Abstract: Today’s adolescents are the responsible citizen of tomorrow. Their attitudes, values and awareness are going to affect the future environmental scenario significantly. It is this generation that will be taking future policy decision. It is therefore important to know the concern of these generations with reward to important issues like environmental problems. In the present work and attempt has been made to study the awareness of secondary school students regarding the environment around them. Cause of environmental degradation and about the remedial measures which can be taken to preserve the environment with the help of questionnaire, review of literature reveals that the studies of this nature are very rare. This work, therefore assumes more significance. It will also help in providing suggestions to the planners with the regards to the modifications which are needed in the curriculum. So as, to increase the awareness of the students in those areas where they are less aware or lack awareness.

Education in Elementary Schools: Nurturing Eco-Consciousness from a Young Agemansurali2343
Environmental education plays a crucial role in shaping the future of our planet. By introducing eco-consciousness to young minds during their formative years, we can instill a sense of responsibility and care for the environment.
Our middle school curriculum is centered around teaching our students how to take control of their own learning. We focus on teaching students to ask the right questions and be confident searching for answers. By developing ‘Critical Skills’ in our students we prepare them for their journey as learners for the rest of their lives. See our curriculum to learn more about how we plan student learning opportunities (our pedagogy) and the environment within which learning takes place.
How to contextualize, localize, and "indigenize" lesson plans. That is why we don't agree to some proposal of lazy educators to have a common lesson plan for all teachers.
Environmental education is a process that allows individuals to explore environmental issues, engage in problem solving, and take action to improve the environment. As a result, individuals develop a deeper understanding of environmental issues and have the skills to make informed and responsible decisions.
The components of environmental education are:PEYA winner and water monitor examining a snake
Awareness and sensitivity to the environment and environmental challenges
Knowledge and understanding of the environment and environmental challenges
Attitudes of concern for the environment and motivation to improve or maintain environmental quality
Skills to identify and help resolve environmental challenges
Participation in activities that lead to the resolution of environmental challenges
Environmental education does not advocate a particular viewpoint or course of action. Rather, environmental education teaches individuals how to weigh various sides of an issue through critical thinking and it enhances their own problem-solving and decision-making skills.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. Curriculum clamour
“And a bit more monitor, if you’ve got it.”
“Can we have everything louder than everything
else?”
Ian Gillan of Deep Purple, Live in Japan,1972
3. School curriculum
“It is intended that the
new curriculum will
provide a benchmark
for all schools including
those that are not
required by law to
teach the national
curriculum.”
DfE (May 2013)
4. What is curriculum making?
• the creative act of interpreting a curriculum specification or
scheme of work and turning it into a
coherent, challenging, engaging and enjoyable scheme of
work.
• a job that really never ends and lies at the heart of good
teaching.
The ingredients of curriculum making
Teachers make it happen in the classroom by drawing from
their knowledge of:
• teaching approaches and specific teaching techniques
• students and how they learn
• the subject - geography - and what it is for
5.
6. Why think about significance?
Thinking about geographical significance may
help as we choose what to include in our new
curriculum - themes, case studies, place
studies etc.
What makes something sufficiently significant
for students to need and want to learn about
it?
7. Why think about significance? 2
Is it… personal relevance, general
interest, global relevance – who decides?
How do we build on pupils’ experiences?
• Can you justify your choice of places, themes
and issues?
• How do we explain to learners the importance
of what we teach?
8. Effective?
Periodically evaluate and record the impact of
your curriculum developments on learners by
collecting clear evidence of the number of
learners affected and the degree of difference
seen in them.
Maintain, change or move on…
9. Task – choose a topic
What keywords might we associate with this
topic?
What will your children already know about this
topic?
What do your students want to learn about?
10. Documentation

12. Habitat, home and community
Everyone has to live somewhere. The youngest
child has their own sense of ‘home’ and what it
means to live with others. Older children become
aware of the variety of housing and the equivalent
ways animals and insects live together. They gain an
understanding of interdependence and become
young people making their own choices connected
with how we live with each other.
• How is this developing experience related to
sustainability in our school curriculum?
13. Reflection and evaluation
• Why do we do it like this?
• How do we know it is successful?
• What is the impact on teaching and learning?

“It is difficult to look at mainstream
educational discourse without observing
that, in the main, educational institutions
are becoming increasingly more efficient at
aligning their structures and processes
with the logic of neoliberal institutions,
15. [
institutions that have been shown to be
more interested in maximizing efficiencies
in natural and human resource production
than they are in caring for the well-being of
diverse people and the environments in
which we live (Lipman, 2011; Pierce,
2013).”
22. Geography - Purpose of study
A high-quality geography education should inspire in pupils a curiosity and
fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the
rest of their lives.
Teaching should equip pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people,
resources and environments, together with a deep understanding of the
Earth’s key physical and human processes.
As pupils progress, their growing knowledge about the world helps them to
deepen their understanding of the interaction between physical and human
processes, and of the formation of landscapes and environments.
Geographical knowledge provides the tools and approaches that explain how
the Earth’s features at different scales are shaped, interconnected and
change over time.
23. Task – make the links
• Where are the sustainability opportunities?
• Do certain localities lend themselves to a
study or an understanding of sustainability?
• Which items of core knowledge might be a
preparation for sustainability?
24. Pupils should be taught to: Sustainability
opportunities
describe and understand key aspects of:
physical geography, including: climate zones,
biomes and vegetation belts, rivers,
mountains, volcanoes and earthquakes, and
the water cycle
Bio-diversity; climate
change; rainforest
destruction and
desertification;
systems
human geography, including: settlements,
land use, economic activity including trade
links, and the distribution of natural resources
including energy, food, minerals, and water
supplies
Habitats, homes and
community; urban
impact on
countryside; rural
protection;
renewables; peak-oil;
food security and
waste; food miles;
water consumption;
supply chain
25. Pupils should be taught to: Sustainability
opportunities
understand, through the use of detailed place
based exemplars at a variety of scales, the
key processes in:
physical geography relating to: glaciation,
plate tectonics, rocks, soils, weathering,
geological timescales, weather and climate,
rivers and coasts
Climate change,
desertification,
water cycle
human geography relating to: population,
international development, economic activity
in the primary, secondary, tertiary and
quaternary sectors, urbanisation, and the use
of natural resources
Finite and renewable
resources, waste
and re-cycling,
understand how human and physical
processes interact to have an impact on and
form distinctive landscapes
Habitat loss, flood
threat, coastal
management
26. Physical geography: processes and change
Geomorphic processes and landscape […]
Changing weather and climate – The causes,
consequences of and responses to extreme
weather conditions and natural weather
hazards, together with their changing
distribution in time and space. The spatial and
temporal characteristics, evidence for and
causes of climatic change over the past two
million years to the present day.
27. People and environment: processes and
interactions
Global ecosystems – An overview of the
distribution and characteristics of large scale
natural global ecosystems (such as tundra,
rainforest and temperate forest), drawing out
the interdependence of climate, soil, water,
plants, animals and humans and the issues
related to sustainable use and management.
28. Resource management and biodiversity - How
humans use, modify and change natural
ecosystems in ways that may be sustainable or
unsustainable. At least three specific examples
at local and regional scales should be chosen to
illustrate how this may lead to beneficial (e.g.
agriculture and food production, identifying new
energy resources) and/or detrimental outcomes
(e.g. desertification, loss of biodiversity, soil
degradation) for human well-being.
29. Ecosystems
Levels of organisation within an ecosystem
• recognise the different levels of organisation from
individual organisms to the whole ecosystem
• the components of an ecosystem
• describe abiotic and biotic factors that affect
communities
• explain the importance of interdependence and
competition in a community.
30. Pyramids of biomass and transfer through trophic
levels
• recognise trophic levels
• describe pyramids of biomass and deduce the
sources of the loss of biomass between them
• calculate the efficiency of energy transfers
between trophic levels.
31. Biodiversity
• carry out an investigation into the distribution
and abundance of organisms in an ecosystem and
determine their numbers in a given area
• explain what is meant by biodiversity and discuss
the challenges
• recognise both positive and negative human
interactions with ecosystems and their impact on
biodiversity
• discuss benefits of maintaining local and global
biodiversity.
32. Task – report back
Are we confident that sustainability has staying
power in the school curriculum?
Yes < - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -> No
Explain.
33. We need to know more about…
• how to link transmissive with transformative
learning;
• the ways in which geography teachers build up
their own conceptions of ESD;
• how to connect whole school approaches to
ESD with curriculum-based approaches to
ESD;
34. and…
• the role of leadership in promoting ESD within
the geography department and across the
school;
• how pupils feel about ESD in geography and
what they want to know; and
• ways of developing ESD as an overarching
frame of mind.
Maggie Smith (2013)
35. Implications for
primary geography practice
1. Pupils come to school with experience, knowledge,
understanding and concerns.
2. Pupils don’t learn what teachers teach.
3. Pupils are reluctant to absorb other people’s
preoccupations and prejudices.
4. Pupils never respond well to pessimism and tales of
looming disaster and dread.
5. Pupils are not there to cure their parents’ bad habits.
6. Pupils rarely judge school in terms of how relevant the
content is.
7. Pupils cannot fully develop social and citizenly skills until
they can practise them for real.
