Description

Teaching of Political Science is a comprehensive and practice-oriented textbook designed for college students, teacher trainees, and prospective political science educators. The book presents a systematic understanding of political science as a school subject and explains how it can be taught effectively through appropriate aims, objectives, teaching methods, instructional techniques, and evaluation practices.

Beginning with the meaning, scope, and importance of political science, the text explores its relationship with other social sciences and emphasizes its role in developing informed, responsible, and democratic citizens. The book discusses educational aims, values, behavioural objectives, curriculum design, and the academic significance of political science in school education. It provides learners with a strong theoretical foundation while simultaneously focusing on practical classroom applications.

A major strength of the book lies in its pedagogical orientation. It covers essential teaching methods such as lecture, discussion, source method, unit method, socialized recitation, questioning, narration, explanation, and exposition. The text also highlights the use of audio-visual aids, community resources, blackboard work, textbooks, supplementary materials, and educational media to make classroom teaching more engaging and effective.

In addition, the book examines the qualities and responsibilities of a political science teacher, handling controversial topics, citizenship training, national integration, evaluation practices, and lesson planning. Complete with model lesson plans and practical insights, Teaching of Political Science serves as a valuable handbook for B.Ed. programmes, undergraduate education courses, teacher educators, and learners interested in effective political science instruction.
