Abstract :
Pedagogy of science deals with strategies of teaching-learning, organizing classroom experiences, knowledge about preconception of learners and transacting the concepts to diverse groups of learners relating with their preconception, so that they can assimilate and accommodate new information to make meaning of it. Teachers need to recognize that with the creation of new knowledge all over the world, socio-cultural and economic conditions of our society change, new opportunities of work arise and aspiration of people grow. This dynamism of society must be reflected in the pedagogy of science. Today’s pedagogy gives value to the voice of learners and their questions, their abilities of making argumentation and justification, synthesizing and analyzing knowledge and their involvement in the process of inquiring science in a collaborative set-up rather than their ability of rote memorization. Consequent to the implementation of NCF-2005, a shift in pedagogy is taking place in our country. There is also a shift in our understanding of process of learning and about learners in the classrooms.
