Sreehari SEC – 1 - ENGLISH COMMUNICATION The purpose of this course is twofold: to train students in communication skills and to help develop in them a facility for communicative English. Since language it is which binds society together and serves as a crucial medium of interaction as well as interchange of ideas and thoughts, it is important that students develop a capacity for clear and effective communication, spoken and written, at a relatively young age. The need has become even more urgent in an era of globalization and the increasing social and cultural diversity that comes with it. English, being a global language par excellence, it is important that any course in communication is tied to an English proficiency programme. The present course will seek to create academic and social English competencies in speaking, listening, arguing, enunciation, reading, writing and interpreting, grammar and usage, vocabulary, syntax, and rhetorical patterns. Students, at the end of the course, should be able to unlock the communicator in them by using English appropriately and with confidence for further studies or in professional spheres where English is the indispensable tool of communication.

Education Generic Elective I : VISION OF EDUCATION IN INDIA : ISSUES AND CONCERNS INTRODUCTION Education is essentially a normative endeavour, hence is intentional. It intends, rather deliberately, to socialize children into a value frame or normative structure. That is why history reveals that every education system, at different historical periods, had been guided by certain value concerns. In contemporary times, the education system in India derives its values from the Constitution of India. While socializing children education has to negotiate within the frame of Constitutional values. Indian Constitution envisioned a humane society based on freedom, equality and justice, and this led to evolving many institutions to realize the vision. In this regard, education has been considered as an agency of social transformation and classroom as the shaper of the envisioned destiny. Since teachers ought to play crucial role in realizing the vision, they are to be informed the Constitutional vision so as to develop normative perspectives regarding education and thereby emerging concerns and issues. This normative perspective a teacher holds in turn guides his/her actions and acquires a meaning to action. Education being an operational area, every citizen perceives several issues related to it through personal experience. The student-teachers need to understand the main issues that touch their functioning as also situate themselves in context. Such an understanding on at least a few issues and concerns will equip student teachers to be ready for dealing with other issues and concerns in the field. This is very relevant as it may not be possible to bring under scrutiny all issues and concerns. Since, concerns and issues cannot and should not be 'informed' like 'ready to cook facts', the course is designed in such a fashion that prospective teachers would be encouraged to come to terms with concerns and issues that would emerge out of their reasoned engagement with contemporary educational reality in the light of professed humanistic values, Course Objectives On completion of the course the students shall be able to: explain normative vision of Indian Society explain the view points of Indian thinkers on Education elaborate the contemporary issues like universalisation of school education, RTE act -2009 and Rastriya Madhyamika sikshya Abhiyan identify importance of common school system Unit – 1 Normative vision of Indian Education Normative orientation of Indian Education: A historical enquiry.
