RECOGNIZING THE TRANSFORAMATION IN TEACHING AND LEARNING PARADIGMS

From ancient to modern times, teaching and learning takes occur directly or indirectly in many forms (formal, non-formal, and informal) at various levels (primary, secondary, and higher education). Here, the manner of teaching and learning has been altering, deliberately or unknowingly, in response to societal change. Teaching and learning in the current day takes place in a well-designed school environment, which is the principal source of competent human resources. The need of the hour is to eliminate paradigm shifts in the teaching and learning process in order to improve this major and dominating activity.
