Pedagogical Concepts
• Learning is an active process wherein
the learner is an active participant.
• Knowledge is not situated in an
understanding on how to follow
particular rote activities but focuses on
building conceptual understanding
which includes a much richer and
flexible array of knowledge.
• No student enters the class as an
empty vessel.
Pedagogical Concepts
• Learning is best acquired if
students can see the connection
between the school and the
outside world.
• Learning becomes more effective
if students know how to take
responsibility for managing and
monitoring their own thinking and
learning activities.

Conclusion
It is the desire of every teacher for
her students to learn as much as they can
in every teaching –learning situation. All
teaching and learning innovations should
always be regarded as opportunities for
better acquisition of knowledge.
Computers shouldn’t be viewed as
teacher replacements but as aids to meet
the ultimate goal of education.
