सवाल
Which syllabus does this course follow?
It follows the NCTE 2014 based two-year B.Ed scheme followed by UP state universities (CCSU, MJPRU, CSJMU, Lucknow University and others). Where your own university's syllabus differs, the centre teaches your university's units and papers.
Is this paper philosophical?
Partly. The trainer keeps it simple with school examples for every idea, which helps in writing long answers.
Which thinkers are important?
Kuhn, Popper, Dewey, Bruner and Shulman are the names asked most often.
